Manchester United have made a move for De Rossi. Roma want 10million-plus. Player not pushing to leave Story: http://www.goal.com/en-gb

Would be a reasonable price for someone like De Rossi.

here's Arsenal's timeline:

Foundation __________________________________________________________HOLY SHIT, WHAT A 03/04 SEASON________________________________OT5

Arsenal is simply irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. you never won a UEFA Cup, you never won a CL/EC cup, you've reached a gran total of a single European final. you're dwarved domestically by United and Liverpool, internationally by Chelsea and Tottenham.

the importance gunners think Arsenal has is directly disproportional to their meek achievements.

damn

 

[omgkitty]

pretty sure they won 2 UEFA Cups, which dwarves the, you know, 0 you won.

In 1972 and 1984. In modern day, none of that shit is relevant.

Cesc all over again.

If we want a DM why have we not tried to sign Veratti?

Eh, the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup ('70) was the UEFA Cup, and the CWC ('94) was the more prestigious trophy of the two.

Also, you can add up Chelsea & Spurs' League titles, double them, and you still wouldn't be at Arsenal's number.

pls tell the liverpool and madrid fans

 

[bud23]

Awesome, it´s finally happening, right? Still can´t believe it.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

It isn't really.

Because he just signed a new contract with PSG?

HNNGGGGGGGG

ADIDAS PLS

Did he

Samuel Eto’o in 2005:
:loooooool

Why would a player ever say something like that. I mean I could understand if some home grown player from a club would say it about the rivals, but something as random as Eto'o hating on Chelsea? lol

 

[omgkitty]

pls tell the liverpool and madrid fans

Well both of those teams have won international honors in the last 15 years.

 

[Lambda Pie]

In 1972 and 1984. In modern day, none of that shit is relevant.

so every title you won is not relevant? they're all in the past, after all.

 

[panty]

So Bale is really coming to Real this summer.

Be a flop and I'll find you and destroy you.

Nevertheless hopefully he is welcomed to the club and helps us win some trophies.

Hala BALE

 

[omgkitty]

so every title you won is not relevant? they're all in the past, after all.

That was 30 years ago. Our last title was 8 years ago. There's a difference.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Bale will be a great left back for Real.

 

[qindarka]

Why would a player ever say something like that. I mean I could understand if some home grown player from a club would say it about the rivals, but something as random as Eto'o hating on Chelsea? lol

Eto'o did hate Chelsea and Mourinho in the past. That quote was fake but he did say some nasty stuff about Chelsea back in 2005 after we knocked them out of the Champions League.

He also accused one of the stewards for making racist comments.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Killer has a genius plan to destroy Moyes Boys from within.

He still hasn't told me.

:lol

 

[Showaddy]

So if Arsenal's barren run carries on for another 10 years will their titles cease to be relevant as well?

 

[Broder Salsa]

Like what? If it's that Chelsea played negative football the like, then sure.

 

[Lambda Pie]

only the titles in the last 8 years matter.

[willow ve]

Bale is the new Modric. Will he even start the first half of the season?

 

[phaze]

I hope that right of the bat, Bale and Ronalda will start arguing who is the most expensive and fairest of them all,
Where will Bale play anyway in Madrid ? Doesn't CR occupy his favorite spot ?

I have Neymar's shoes. Time to burn them.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

I honestly expect him to perform to a similar level to Di Maria, which is to say decent but not mind blowing.

 

[Clegg]

It's amazing how all these clubs can come in and get deals done quickly while we dick around for months on end.

Woodward you twat. Do your job.

 

[Willkiller]

I personally think this is a bad move for Bale, but we'll see

Unnecessarily deep? (especially with Skrtel's wages)

You're going to feel silly when we end up with De Rossi and Herrera.

And Baines.

This is crazy they are breaking the world record transfer fee for him, the hell you think?

Even if you have Ronaldo you find room for a player like Bale.

Elysium was really cool.

What about playing Skrtel at the weekend against United, then loaning him to Napoli on deadline day?

 

[Gareth Bale]

No, for Liverpool!

 

[Fergie]

:lol

Killer gonna live up to his name.

No transfer fee is being broken, Ronaldo is still top dog.

 

[Empty]

Would be a reasonable price for someone like De Rossi.

if he's available for £15 million or so i'd rather have him than fellaini

not long term sure but while i like fellaini as an improvement on our current options i don't think of him as a long term solution either

 

[Mastadon]

No, for Liverpool!

Oh good, had me worried there!

Right new top 4 predictions:

1) Spurs
2) Liverpool
3) Chelsea
4) Southampton

 

[The_Hitcher89]

What about playing Skrtel at the weekend against United, then loaning him to Napoli on deadline day?

That would be ideal, we'd need assurances that they'll buy him if he does well though.

You don't need medicals for loans do you?

 

[bjaelke]

Sakho €23 million + bonuses according to BeIN Sport

They got that one wrong (I hope). Every other source has him at a lower price.

The 23-year-old Sakho, who can play as a centre back and on the left, has played 14 times for France and is likely to cost around £13m while Ilori, 20, is one of the most promising young defenders in Portugal. Both players are expected on Merseyside for medicals and further talks in the next 24 hours.

L'Equipe: Liverpool and PSG are close to agreeing a €16m-€18m fee for Mamadou Sakho. We have an update for you shortly. #LFC #PSG

 

[Manager]

Possibly already answered, but why isnt Sakho signed by someone like Real, Barca? I thought he was more or less the most promising defender in the world? What's his negative parts?

 

[Error]

KP Boateng to Shalke for 11 millions. lol

 

[brokenbeans]

No transfer fee is being broken, Ronaldo is still top dog.

Won't be far off though insane money.

Liverpool DNA

It's ok guysss bender is coming back

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Spent a year or two on the bench I think. Coutinho, Sturridge, Sakho. Rodgers is a career-saver

 

[Yen]

I hope Herrera doesn't join United. It would be sad to see them ruin another exciting talent.
