Actually, I do not think of them as galacticos either. Owen was hyped up to be one in UK and in Asia, but he is no more than Morientes.
There's a rumor in the Dutch media, that a delegation of Madrid was watching van Bommel in his CL qualification match last night. Not sure how true this would be, seeing as he is cup tied to that team, and it sort of would go against what Florentino said in a recent interview with Marca: He's getting his form back, and he might have been a good buy if he wasn't cup tied, although there's no guarantee he would do as well at Madrid which is on a tad higher level than PSV. The president of PSV was also saying there was another club in the mix for him instead of Dortmund, so that might help those rumors, even though he never said it was Madrid. He would need to be (and probably is) much cheaper, to avoid my rage at getting him instead of Xabi.
I'm gonna miss it. We've had some great discussions here, from Ruud to Carvalho to Totti to XAlonso to Buffon to Nesta, and everything and everyone in between. I can't wait for next summers...Joaquin, Tevez, and Chivu will be brought in to defend our new treble!
Your post is 911th post. I just post to make it 912 before it closed on 911th. I just do not like the number.

Well if it was up to me...it would never be closed. On the topic of transfers....I am hearing R.Carlos should get his passport in December which means the team will have a non-EU spot open Mascherano anybody...gives depth at the holding mid spot and right back.
Because there was a directive by the Admins that threads should be closed before reaching 400 posts. The reason has to do with server load. And as you can see, this thread is far beyond that level. Besides, the intent of the thread was for this past offseason, at least by my understanding.
