Don't worry I'm sure if they won't accept the 15m bid Rabiot will tell his mum on them.
He's a 19 year old.
Back home. I did not enjoy that. Except for the goal and the final whistle.
Awful nerve racking stuff as expected.
A Leeds fan on the train home argued with me that Chambers was shit and I was like, well okay there was a lot of space on the right but I dunno, maybe there was a reason he was playing like a third CB. It worked in the end didn't it.

€30M for a player in his last year of contract = peanuts? ok.
Pep already replaced Kroos with 17 years old- Gaudino. He's basically a copy of Kroos, but smaller: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OzjT4UxGNo – he even moves like Toni.
Xabi coming only makes sense if Pep is trying to put Lahm again as RB. Rafinha is not good enough and Lahm adds another dimension to our game as fullback.

Some say 25, others say 30. Peanuts for a player of his calibre in todays market.
We bought Illarra for 40m #neverforget

Not yet.
Fucking hell, this is exactly what I was saying with squad depth and Chelsea being a "sure winner", all it takes is an injury for Costa and it's back to fucking Torres and an old ass Drogba.
I'm not to keen that he refused to train. Don't really like players who do that to force transfers. If he done it to PSG then there's nothing to suggest he won't do it to us in the future.
I think you should have kept Eto'o another year. He took a while to get going but ended up getting some important goals and assists. As a second choice striker he's not a bad option.
Eh, not too worried about that. Wenger handles that sort of stuff pretty well.
We don't know what is going on over in Paris. I'll be excited until given reason not to.

Need something better, Destro does seem like it will happen if Torres agrees to get loaned out... Hopefully that will be good.

Weird, considering other outlets are saying he's gonna be earning 10m a year. No reason to move to Bayern to earn less money, doesn't make sense.
No, went to an English showing. Loved the voice work. But it only came out here today (actually tomorrow). Gotta say, the biggest surprise was Drax.
I think it is.

Oh god
Xabi Alonso to Bayern is actually happening?
Completely objectively speaking, this is the point I'd tell Pep (or whoever is in charge for transfers at Bayern right now) to fuck off.
It's ridiculous
Bayern's board didn't want to sign Khedira because they thought they'd be downgrading Kroos to Khedira. What exactly is Xabi Alonso m8s?

RIP Højbjerg.
I fully agree with you until the last sentence. Alonso >>> Khedira.
He was already dead. Pep prefers Gaudino, who came from nowhere. Maybe Pierre-Emile will go on loan now
Dunno. I think Bernat and Reina were very pointless signings. Xabi on the other hand is good business, he's great DM and we need one. As I said before, maybe he's trying to put Xabi instead of Lahm in midfield, I don't think he will replace Kroos or anything, we have Gaudino for that.
Saw earlier today that the Spanish source La Sexta are claiming he'll make 10m apparently. That'd be gross wages undoubtedly (if it were accurate).

Just talk about signing Reus for 25 mill next season lol
yeah, has to be before taxes. That way it will make sense about him accepting to earn less at Bayern.

Pep is smart.
He bought Alonso so he can keep him on the bench.
Pep is embarrassed to see a player as bad as Alonso starting football matches. This way he can guarantee he gets no more games.
Paying his salary is worth it.

But I don't want another Dortmund player. Two is enough.
The sideways pass was his creation. The goal is the end, but not to Cleverly.

No he's not you daft cunt, if you're gonna be muppeting around in twitter at least get your shit straight.
Ancelotti thought Xabi Alonso didn't plan to leave. [Cadena Cope]
yeah totes sounds like he's being forced out
oh lets make Alonso one of the centerpieces of our new ad campaign and lets force him out!
Alonso would become Bayern's best fully fit midfielder.
Bayern is a huge club to be able to experience as part of your playing career.
Alonso can fill the void in midfield left by Martinez.
Literally everyone who's baffled by some part of this transfer, especially relating to the above, is crackers. It makes absolute sense.

Lol that is so true. Wenger please. Get us Schneiderlin.

Well, I never said Khedira was better than Alonso
Bernat is an okay signing. Hasn't looked like first team material yet but he's young, didn't cost that much and is an upgrade over Contento (lol).
Reina is a bad signing. Sure, Starke didn't look that great at times but Reina has his faults as well and will earn much more. And all that for a few matches in the cup/league? Well, okay, you have the money.
Alonso is a terrible signing all things considered. You just signed Benatia to make Pep's 3-4-3 or whatever the hell it is work. Lahm said a few times that he sees himself in midfield. Even with Schweinsteiger and Thiago out, you don't have much of a need of another DM, as the formation allows Lahm and Alaba to play there.
Don't even know if Schneiderlin could save that squad.
Fullbacks, mids, wingers, striker. We are weak throughout the whole team.
Fuck Vidal, if we can pull this off it's the greatest moment of the transfer window.
As for Carvalho, it makes no sense now. LVG does not rate him. He and Shaw were the two players that we had supposedly gotten back in March/April. If LVG really wanted him he would of been signed already, Sporting's asking price has only gone down as the summer has gone on.

Pretty good.
Bayern get signings done quick and easy. With great prices usually too.
We need to copy that.

idk m8 think the plan is to teach Kroos how to defend :lol
Modric - Kroos - James
is looking to be the starting mid
I've been quite impressed by him. He's shown pace, a cool head and some good skills. Very promising.

Bernat is a great signing. Definitely not just "okay".
Reina is a jokes signing though.
