Alkaline Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I guess so but he's 23 already. Rooney was 18 I'd expect him to already be hitting close to his potential already by then. If he's really good he could end up playing for them for 10 years or so. I guess if he's hitting the start of the higher points of his career that's why he's cost so much. From what i've seen of him I think he looks pretty solid for a holding midfielder with a good passing range and he reads the game well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) Welbeck has been upping his game for the new season. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jkGccbrW1g&sns=tw Edited July 13, 2013 by Captain America 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Welbeck was hilarious. He missed a couple of simple chances, and was generally pretty bad. But, it's pre-season, and all that. It was total walking-pace. Except for Rio. He played at a pace slower than walking pace. But at least Adnan Januzaj took the piss. That kid is special.

Soda Jerk Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Thiago to Bayern done. They paid more than the release clause too. His concern was that he wasn't getting games at Barca. How's he going to get into the current best midfield in the world? He's shit anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranoid Android Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 They at least had a chance of getting Thiago, it could just get embarrassing for Man U now. They might as well bid for Iniesta next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I don't even think he wants to leave, he should probably give it one more year at Barca but it does seem a strange one for Manyoo. Cesc has still been tweeting/instagraming about Arsenal whilst at Barca so can't see him going there especially now that the draw is David Moyes and not Fergie. Could be totally wrong mind you...

Soda Jerk Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Gollum Ballbag talks some serious shite, and always has done. It's most probably total garbage. He is just the worst. Cesc is great, but there's just no chance of that happening. Cesc said at the start of summer he didn't want to leave. why would he? He's at Barca. The club he itched to go to for a couple of years before finally ending up there. Spanish midfielders can go to hell. Arturo Vidal should be the man in line. He's making waves about being open to a move, and he's hard as nails. Get him on a plane. Either him, or that big, fuck off, massive French lad at Sevilla. Kondogbia. He looks monstrous. He looks like if Claude Makelele ate Yaya Toure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Easy Wishes Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) Barca have zero reason to sell Cesc, surely, unless the cash is huge? Especially with Xavi being 33 and Thiago now gone. I would love to see it happen, though. Edited July 15, 2013 by Adam Easy Wishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delboy1969 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Happy that BT Sport are covering Cambridge United's first game of the season at home to Halifax on Sunday Aug 11th, reckon we might get a decent TV audience.

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Gary Hooper off to QPR then. I'd kind of liked him to go to a Premiership club, but I guess nobody was wanting to take the gamble on him. (in my current game of champ, he scored 41 goals in 31 league games - 61 in all competitions - and Man City are sniffing about) Surely all this Fabregas stuff is just paper talk aswell?

Soda Jerk Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Surely all this Fabregas stuff is just paper talk aswell? I thought it was Ballaque's usual nonsense, but it turned out to be an actual bid. Took less than 24 hours for Tito to say that Cesc wanted to stay though. Just no chance.

Soda Jerk Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 There are rumours that Cazorla wants to go back to Spain, Atletico Madrid specifically. That one's a bit out of the blue, if true. Which it probably isn't, because the window is open, so the proportion of truth to lies at this point is minimal. I imagine the newspapers are just playing games of Transfer Window Madlibs every night. [Team1] set to miss out in the race for [Player] as he pushes for a move to [Team2] [Player] issues 'come and get me' plea to [Team1] but [Team2] will only sell for [Fee] [Team] give [Manager] [silly amount of money] Warchest to splurge on [Player1] [Player2] & [Player3]. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Easy Wishes Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'm so disappointed David Villa has signed for Atleti and not for a Premier League club. Same goes for Cavani to PSG and Thiago to Bayern. Looks like Lewandowski's staying with Dortmund for a further year, too...does anyone in the know about German fitba know what's going on? I thought he was a stick-on to sign for Bayern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read something about this on twitter, I haven't seen anything other than ITK stuff. He seems pretty happy in all the pre-season photos. Plus he's pretty much besties with Arteta and now Monreal so it sounds like bullshit to me. I really hope it is anyway, I love watching Santi play in the EPL.
