This thread will about the daily gossip and rumors that are occurring in the world of football. You most post source. Where you got it from. Ill be the first to start.

'Guardiola to Milan is possible'
By Football Italia staff

Former Barcelona Coach Pep Guardiola could be on the bench at San Siro as boss of Milan, according to his agent.

The 41-year-old tactician has taken a year out of management after guiding the Blaugrana to three La Liga titles and two Champions League trophies in four years, but has been constantly linked with some of the top jobs in Europe.

And Jose Maria Orobitg, Guardiola's representative, has claimed that he could join the Rossoneri, whilst also denying rumours that former Camp Nou Coach has already rejected an offer from the Milanese giants.

“It is absolutely not true that Pep has rejected Milan,” Orobitg told tuttomercatoweb.com. “I often speak with Milan, and I can assure you that Guardiola hasn't rejected Milan.

“Pep just wants to enjoy this year and be away from football. It's a sabbatical for him.

“Guardiola to Milan? Everything is possible in the future. Never say never, but now is not the right time.”

Wish for everyone to contribute to this thread. cheers

After posting the article I wish for you guys to discuss so ill start. Well I don't see Guardiola coming to Milan tbf but many of his friends are saying he's going to coach in Italy and at one of the Milanese teams. Being linked to Guardiola is a positive news but I just dont see him coming to Milan.

i doupt he'll be joining serie a anytime soon

EPL will be his home next season if so

If chelsea win something this season i think they will keep RDM. If that happens then pretty much every epl team that he would want to even join will have their managers set.

I think he should go to Milan imo its the best place for him now.

GERMANY/ BAYERN MUNICH, Offer for Kevin-Prince Boateng ready

Already drawn towards Bayern Munich during last August, Ghanaian international midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng (25) seems to be still a main target for German club, which his half-brother Jerome is playing for. Currently on a deal with AC Milan until June 2014 and living a very bad moment in Italian squad, former Portsmouth player might be purchased for about 23 million euros, a sum that Die Roten management might offer in January.

If you want a rumor mill thread then do it right, because this is just fantasy. First of all this source horribly mangles its original source, and the original source is sensationalist garbage >.>

Google Translate probably could have been a beter interpretation of the original source.

This is technically a rumour, I guess:

LIVERPOOL Football Club has decided to stay at Anfield.

Well-placed ECHO sources have said the club is to scrap plans for a move to Stanley Park, and will instead redevelop its current ground.

While no official confirmation has yet been given, an announcement about plans for the council's "Anfield Village" housing regeneration scheme is due to be made on Monday at the Town Hall, and the ECHO understands that part of the briefing will include the club revealing its intentions to stay put.

Doesn't change the fact that your source lies about its source. I'll leave you to discover that for yourself, but most importantly use your common sense ffs.

Bayern Munich, spending 23 million on a midfielder in the winter transfer window.

Something is off if your brain doesn't explode upon reading that sentence. Doesn't even require background knowledge, just paying any attention to this years summer transfer window...

Think about it, this is an ex-forum of a tabloid site, nobody wants to hear about completely unfounded rumors that are fabricated by Berlusconi's media empire. If you don't properly check your sources you'll have a thread filled with baseless rumors and thus useless. Stop seeing this as a personal attack so you can stop defending nonsense.

PSG manager Carlo Ancelotti has declared his interest in signing Roma star Daniele De Rossi despite suggestions the Italy international has problems with his attitude.

Roma manager Zdenek Zeman dropped De Rossi in their recent match against Atalanta and Ancelotti feels the spending power of the Ligue 1 club could be enough to lure the Italian midfielder to France.

"I think De Rossi and is a great player, I was surprised by the fact that he did not play, but I think it was only a temporary decision," Ancelotti told Radio Monte Carlo.

"He's a great midfielder, it is normal to be approached by PSG as we are one of the few clubs that can spend big money in the market, but the market is closed. At least he can talk [to PSG] in January."

Ancelotti brushed off suggestions that De Rossi has problems with his attitude and said he thinks the Roma midfielder is a good professional.

He added: "Poor commitment? He is a very good professional."
