Transfer Thread #18: Out with the old, in with the new...hopefully.

And we thought we were slowly coming to the end of our transfer season.

Now Xabi out, Arbeloa seems on his way? What's this about Iker also?

And with only a few days to go ha .. Let's see what happens ..

I dont like all these late departures. Unless we be bringing in Reus, Pogba & some defender then we're weakening our squad.

 

Down to three (four with third GK) homegrown players. Nice job Flo, just three more and your plan will be complete.

 

Get over it.

 

Real Madrid and Monaco on meeting for Falcao. The deal seems extremely set

How can he be with Monaco when he's meeting with PSG?

 

Xabi arrived in Germany

 

Nobody cares what you think. Everyone is laughing at you, not agreeing.

You was calling for Flo to sign Pogba not too long ago you sad, little hypocrite.

Cry quietly and get over it.

 

Or was he?

 

It is not entirely Perez's fault that the academy is not producing good enough players. And when good enough players emerge from the academy, they may very well ask to leave for more minutes and perhaps money (Morata - Mata). If we had more reliable players like Jese, I am sure they would get their fair chances. But you cannot ask for more homegrown players in the first team without considering how good they are.
I think these things run in cycles. The club had magnificent homegrown players who won the league 5 times in a row at one stage. We had a few good players here and there since then, but you cannot expect a golden generation to be produced by the academy every few years.
The club is doing fine, but Demo is just bitching around.

 

Special effects have come a long way.

 

I'm sure the management know they need cover for the Xabi departure.

I predict an exciting few days ahead until the close of the market.

I'm predicting Falcao, a midfielder and a defender who is versatile.

 

You are definitely mad.

 

Lol, we should have a Flo stamp for brainwashed people.

 

Exactly. Man Utd, Barca and Madrid have all produced golden generations at some time or another.

Man U are now Producing players like Cleverly and Barca 'La Masia' is practically closing down

 

Am I wrong tho? That you didn't want Flo to sign Pogba?

 

Honest question, is Futbol the only sport where if you have a good game and good season you can force to negotiate a new contract?
I didn't see Derek Fisher or Robert Horry demand raises when the save or won the Lakers Championships with last second shots? Or when Shaq demanded in a pre-season game screaming towards Jerry Buss in the stands "Are you going to F-ing pay me" That didn't get him anywhere!

In Futbol if the club can get a good percentage back on image rights, you might get a significantly higher contract (Casillas still on club cough cough).

 

Your lack of knowledge is amusing :

 

i thought @demo_g would be excited

more spots for cantenaros!
