i check english sites and it says that ronaldinho says he wants to play for man u, i go to another site and it says that he now wants to play for barca

next day i go to another site and it says that barca has resigned in their quest to sign him, then i go to another site and it says man u is withing hours of signing him, then i go to another site and it says that barca is making a new bid and are now favorites to get him

is this driving you crazy as well? i have never seen such a circus! so many different stories in the different papers but who can we believe?

yeah...it's ************************ alright.

i suspect that it's the agents and others with vested interests in the players (after all, football players, especially world class footballers, are a brand and are marketed as a commodity) trying to increase speculation hoping this will increase the value of the player...the media also needs to sell papers so the longer the speculation continues the more papers will be bought.

i'm getting sick of it myself...i was looking forward to seeing batistuta in the english league, even for just 1 season, but i dont think it's going to happen anymore.

did you hear about the alleged 50 million euro bid for Nesta from an unamed english club (i wonder who that could have been ! ! !)

I hear Barca have virtually clinched ronaldinhos signature.
Barca are in deep financial trouble apparently but they can still cough up 30 million euros to buy ronaldinho..
PSG obviously dont mind dealing with a team in deep financial trouble and avoid a deal with a rich club who wont have problems paying.

Well the Ronaldinho saga is over now. We can all return to our normal lives and I can continue my anti- support for Man U (ha ha losers), Barca(got lucky) and those two bastard teams in Milan. They know who they are. Hala Madrid, Forza Juve, and Long live Arsenal! :D

Madrid, Juve AND Arse? That's just glory-hunting. I've been a fan of ManU since a good 4 years before this era of dominance, what about you? Juve & Madrid have dominated (along with a few other teams) their leagues (to varying degrees) for decades, and Arse have always been a top EPL team.

I don't midn that we didn't get Ronnie, honestly. I don't know why, either. I guess it 's just resignation. And hope. Hope that we'll go wild and buy 3 or 4 MASSIVE names in the next month (here's to Thuram, Duff, Diego and somebody in their early/mid 20's for 'the hole' that plays like Ronnie)

Ronaldinho is just saying the right thing. If he speaks to the English press, he said he love MU..... of course, he loved Barcelona when he was facing the Spanish press. I think he just want out of PSG.
