Or maybe these players aren't as great as they think they are because I don't see a long line of clubs waiting to take them on. I mean, James is pretty much begging Carlo to take him back, and Bale is pursuing a career in golf.
To be fair he didn't actually let Neymar slip. That loud mouth buffoon Calderon did. Florentino did all he could, we just got sabotaged by inmate #859872634 or as most know him Rossell.
The market as a whole right now is overvaluing young talents and undervaluing veterans with some warts. James is also a bit temperamental and his best position is one that a lot of managers don’t scheme for at the moment. I’m still hoping against all evidence that he and ZZ figure out a way to work this all out. Awesome player.
Everyone knows Neymar's market value has dropped to around 150ME and that Zidane doesn't want Neymar at any price but will happily have the club spending 180ME on Pogba. Maybe you think Lucas Vasquez is a superior talent to James and it would have been a mistake to send Lucas Vasquez to another team because he would instantly become a Balon d'Or candidate and win everything. I disagree, I would have kept James. Somehow you rate both Pogba (whose only weakness is laziness) AND Lucas Vasquez (whose only strength is his sprightly energy) but don't think Neymar, Bale or James are good enough for Madrid.
It doesn't seem like they're even gonna try. I just can't believe that James is totallly unwilling to do anything to rectify the situation or that Zidane is totally unwilling to accept any gesture of good faith on James part. It seems like both of them have the maturity and social skills of a toddler.
Isn't it pathetic that in a summer where it's not supposed to be about Neymar and Pogba, they pull stunts to make it about them?
I think its hilarious that all of Neymar, Mbappe and Pogba went berserk when they realized that we were doing Zidane 2.0, the revolution, and that we preferred Hazard and Jovic.
For someone who has the maturity and social skills of a toddler, he sure seems to attract the biggest names in the world, and players are dying to play for him.
Like it's Zidane's fault Bale lost his position to pretty much everyone. I'd rather play Lucas Vazquez than Bale. At least you know he's gonna give you 100% every night and you don't have to worry every time he falls down that he will not play again in the next 2 months.
#Calciomercato - #Juventus, si insiste per #Pogba https://t.co/dZ8sHa53gc— Gianluca Di Marzio (@DiMarzio) June 18, 2019 Manchester wants 150ME to let Pogba go, and Pogba wants a 15ME net salary (kind of the same he has as of now). His preference is Juventus. (Di Marzio)
If anyone believes any of this trash.... I don't even blame the shit media and "sources". People should be smart enough not to
Just to say I don"t believe him on Pogba at all, but he gets some things right. Unfair to say he's always wrong.
Need to react quickly then because according to sources close to Lyon, he's veeeeeeeeeery close to Tottenham, and that's not a tactic to end up elsewhere.
Bale had zero will to score goals at the end of this season. He would get himself in clear positions for scoring and then pass the ball to the opposition's GK - those weren't even shots. If I was really trying to be petty about it I'd say the fker intentionally did that. Every contact with the ball he was whistled, every missed pass or a shot he was booed. I'd say he's had enough and was just ruining chances on purpose. If he had any decency he would fk off to China. He NEVER fought for a position in this team. At the slightest inconvenience he gave up. He failed to impress under three different coaches this season - and we all know Zizou does not count on him - he didn't even give him a farewell in the last game of the season, in fact he publicly humiliated Bale - keeping him on the bench as a sub, but opting to sub "lesser" players in. I believe this was Zizou's payback for Bale being a cvnt and I agree with it. Now Bale is simply being petty. There is no room for him in this team, there is no way he will play nor does he want to, he has show that much already. He's just provoking the club and then he'll fk off at the last second of the transfer window. If he's lucky people will choose to remember him for his CDR final goal vs Barca and the acrobatic CL final goal vs Liverpool. And if people chose to be realistic they will boo at the sound of his name for years to come.
Yea I’ve seen those rumors, it’s really really stupid of us to let this happen, I would have gone for Ndombele even if we were to get Pogba personally, different players.
L'equipe were the first to report the possibility, and RMC were first to report it was done. L'Équipe claim that PSG Sporting Director Antero Henrique's recent trip to Doha saw him be told by President Al Khelaifi that he still fully counts on him, in the face of intensifying rumours of a return of Leonardo.— Get French Football News (@GFFN) May 30, 2019 Breaking | Leonardo is returning to PSG, Sporting Director Antero Henrique on his way out, should be announced at the beginning of next week, according to @mohamedbouhafsi.— Get French Football News (@GFFN) June 6, 2019
Remember when Benzema's agent clowned him for saying Benz agreed to join Milan. He also kept dreaming about Inter signing Modric for cheap even after the player confirmed he'd stay. He's biased towards Serie A clubs or likes to give his Italian fans false hope, I guess. As for Pogba, could be true that he doesn't want to take a paycut given how Raiola works. I don't think Juve can afford Utd's demands though.
I want Ndombele + Eriksen in that scenario. Sell Isco. Start Ndombele if he outperforms Casemiro who hasn't been at his best after 2016-17 season as well.
