Agger'll be staying. Skrtel may go - but I hope not. By all accounts he was back to his best yesterday.

I have just read that now Bale has gone the following is set happen.

Ronaldo to Utd
Chicharito to Liverpool
Suarez to Madrid

Seemingly Liverpool have said they will only sell him if they get a replacement. If that can get 40m for Suarez and only spend 20m on Chicharito that would be great business. So Madrid will only sell Ronaldo if they can get Suarez so Utd will have to sell if they want CR7 back.

I know it is far fetched but I would love to see it and it kind of explains why Moyes has not bought anyone yet.

Think it's bullshit. No player has gone directly from Utd to Liverpool in a looooooooong time.

I think so too because I am sure I posted here about a deal with Chicharito was used in a deal to bring Bale to Utd last week? So now I think about it this is the same story with team names changed :(

I don't understand why RM are selling Ozil, I really don't. Fair play to Arsenal if they get him but I think if you made a list of players that RM would want to sell, Ozil wouldn't be in the top 5 (unless it's just about the moolah).

Maybe they'll use him as a squad player in rotation with Rosicky. Troooooooololololol.

Apparently it is not a permanent deal it is a loan deal for the season. I think it is just about cutting the wage bill down. And again if they sell Ronaldo he is going nowhere.

You're paying €50m to have him on loan?

Apparently United are desperately trying to hijack the Ozil deal. I don't know if that makes me happy or sad.

edit: I've thought about it. It makes me happy.

We are not paying anything, if its a loan deal we just take his wages.

Point is, footballer salaries are stupid anyway. If Chelsea are willing to spend that sort of money for less than 10 goals a season then 300k a week isn't so bad for 25 a season.
for one season!!!! Keven phillips hit 30 in the prem, he must be worth 150 million easily

I think Torres has been terrible for 3-4 seasons, he was awful in his last season at Liverpool...but ok.

soze said:
Kaka has joined Millan and is taking a £5m a year pay cut to go. So there are some footballers who prefer playing football to getting paid, good on him.

Liverpool have signed Ilori too. Never heard of him though.

Kaka is from a really wealthy background anyway.


Madrid are mental, when you have Ronaldo already, ozil > Bale. Their fans are pissed.

The only Madrid fans I know think it is because they lost out very publicly on Neymar so have just been desperate to make a superstar signing.

The Bale deal is political, nothing to do with the team. Soze is correct, losing out on Neymar was a massive kick in the proverbial RM nuts. They simply went to the biggest league in the world, prem, took the most talked about player in it, Bale, and went all out to get him.

Southampton missed out on 25m for Bale because they sold their sell on fee for 3m when skint a few years back, ouch.
