Cavani to Chelsea is very close according to..Napoli.

He didn't say it was close, just that they were in contact. Still in midst of negotiating, deal is far from done, clubs like Madrid and City are also richer and more alluring.

Torres will be off then. Ba and Lukaku as second and third choice is great on paper but don't see either wanting to be third choice. Lukaku will go on loan again I guess.

DORTMUND. DO IT.

If we can get rid of Torres, which is not that probable. He has repeatedly maintained that he wants to stay, and why would he not, being paid so much more than his worth. I've been hearing that the club might be looking to sell Ba as well.

Torres to Liverpool.

Suarez to Madrid.

Gomez to København.

Done.



Also

Palermo owner Maurizio Zamparini has confirmed that former Italy midfielder Gennaro Gattuso will be the relegated club's next manager. The partnership will likely be equivalent to two pythons trying to swallow each other whole inside a missile silo filled with Mentos and Diet Coke as Zamparini has made 25 managerial changes in his 11 years at Palermo and Gattuso has never man an older man he wouldn't physically assault. The following is a transcript of Gattuso's job interview with Zamparini.

Zamparini: Thank you for coming in, Gennaro. As someone who has interviewed many, many managers over the years, I have this process down to a very precise science. So if you're ready, we will begin.

Gattuso: [repeatedly slaps himself in the face] Ready.

Zamparini: OK then. On the count of three, name your favorite dinosaur. Don't even think about it. Just name it. Ready? One, two, three.
Gattuso and Zamparini: T-Rex.

Zamparini: Excellent. Finish this sentence. People are...

Gattuso: Infuriating creatures that you must grab by the neck and berate until the veins in your neck snap like rubberbands around a fat man's waist.

Zamparini: Exactly. If I hired you on a Tuesday, sacked you on Wednesday and then offered you the job again on Thursday, would you find that strange?

Gattuso: No. Drastic mood swings are perfectly normal.

Zamparini: So I take it you agree that stability is only for chairs and successful Jenga towers?

Gattuso: Until you destroy them in a fit of rage, yes.

Zamparini: Last question. If you could have one job in medieval times, what would it be?

Gattuso and Zamparini: Executioner!

Zamparini: Did we just become best friends?

Gattuso: Yep!

Zamparini: Do you want to go sack random people who work for the club?

Gattuso: Can we scream in their faces when we do it?

Zamparini: Of course.

Gattuso: Then let me think. Uh, yep!

Zamparini: Rino, you're hired! And you're sacked! Hahahahaha

Gattuso: I accept! And I will tear every last hair out of your leathery scalp! Hahahahaha

Gattuso and Zamparini: Hahahahahaha!

Zamparini: I can't wait until I inevitably hate you.

Gattuso: [headbutts Zamparini to express agreement and joy]

We are going to stick with Torres and Ba next season and you will like it. I'm ashamed of you, not giving them a proper chance. Ba has only had 6 months and Torres, only 2 and a half years. They could yet come good.

What a boring first half. Please stop being a pussy Pisarev and put on an actual striker next half, and don't be afraid to play on the counter.

Cavani: These links to Chelsea are nonsense. Man City are my boyhood club and it would be a dream to join them.

Didn't know this factoid:

Fernandinho first wrote his name in lights in 2003 when he scored the winning goal in the FIFA World Youth Championship final against Andres Iniesta’s Spain.

Exciting stuff, glad to have a player like him. Still a bit weird we haven't heard anything new about Navas regarding his medical, etc.

Negotiating with Napoli over Cavani is closer than any club ever managed before. It means they're serious about it.

40 million euros. Txiki gonna Txiki. Shakhtar laughing all the way to the bank. And no way they'll sell Mkhitaryan for any less than his release clause either.

Neil Custis tweeted last night that the talk of Navas medical was false and he's not in the country.

Right two exams to go. Bring it.

Just seen/heard about Titanfall. Sounds neat, but not enough to consider getting a Xbone (my PC sucks balls). If Black Tusks' game is cool, Ryse is mostly controller and plays well, and Fallout 4 then maybe I will consider.

Wes anything on Villa moving for Charlie Austin btw?

I don't remember anyone whinging about David Hayter's voice at the time, then as soon as he's dropped people act as though he was shit as Snake
Click to expand...

I remember reading quite a bit around the time of MGS4 that he was overplaying it. But fuck me, he is Snake and I would keep him any day, can't say I'm too annoyed though as my interest in MGS as a whole just seems to fade more every day.

Anyway, Valnen bringing the hilarity in the thread lol
