I am currently on an indefinite break from the section (bar the Youth thread).

Benfica interested in signing Meireles this Summer, according to Calcio Mercato.

Apparently Arsenal sent scouts to the Bordeaux vs Lyon game to watch Gonalons.

Gonalons:

"If I have to go, it would be abroad", the 23-year-old was quoted as saying by Fichajes.

"I like the English and the German leagues. They are awesome.

"When I see the pitch and that type of game, I feel it’s a dream."

The whole section is turning too melodramatic and knee-jerking for my liking. Sad

I wonder all why all these rumors on Ibra are cropping up suddenly.I mean rumors of Ibra wanting to return to Italy even though they are faint and him talking up his desire to play in Germany too.Is he unhappy at PSG or something ?

by S Fri 22 Feb - 18:44

I am hearing rumors that Ibra has told Raiola he no longer wishes to stay in France.From Italian sources but not the most trustworthy ones though.

You have had a hand in it as well tbh. In the knee jerking that is.

Have I really?

I've suggested selling Reina, but is that really a knee-jerk reaction? He's been a shadow of himself for the past 3 years.

id like to call bullshit on all those X to Bayern rumors

by S Sat 23 Feb - 5:11

Its only Tuttosport but they say Barca have apparently set an €18m asking price for Alexis Sanchez.

They've been running with this news for quite a while actually which is why i decided to post this rumor.

If we are really pushing hard for Sanchez ,then you can consider the Jo-Jo dream effectively over Mad

Guillermo Ochoa - Liverpool:

"My agent has had contact with Liverpool, but there is nothing concrete", Ochoa was quoted as saying by bold.dk.

"I hope there will be some options for the summer and I will assess whether it is the right time to leave Ajaccio.

"It will be difficult to choose between Liverpool, Milan, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter, Bayern and Dortmund. It all depends on how things play out.

"Then I will choose what suits me best."

by McAgger Sat 23 Feb - 13:57

Oh god NOOOOOOOO. I hate Ochoa. Soooooooooooo overrated. FIFA prodigy, but nothing special.

I really doubt he said this Laughing

He's a good shot stopper, but not very good with aerial balls. Lesser version of Casillas basically.

How many times have you seen play?

One of my biggest pet peeves when people do this. They think the second you don't rate a player is because you haven't seen him play.

And to answer your question I live in AZ bro. This is like Mexico's second home. I've seen him play IN PERSON on 2 different occasions for Mexico, and countless times on TV. I will always make fun of his hype because frankly I don't rate him. He's soooooo overrated, or used to be, I don't hear the hype anymore.

by Red Alert Sat 23 Feb - 21:46

That's fair enough. I wasn't aware of that.

But considering most of the posters on ALL forums have more knowledge than most scouts do nowadays, it's not a surprise that many people want to question if they've actually seen a player play.

by Donuts Sat 23 Feb - 22:05

The way I look at it is Ochoa is better then Valdes Wink

Materazzi:

"If Mourinho joins PSG, I don’t know what will become of Ibrahimovic," Materazzi told Repubblica Sport, when asked about rumours that the Portuguese coach could be enticed to the French capital.

"They did not leave each other on good terms. Ibra dumped us during a pre-season training camp in Los Angeles to join Barcelona.

"He told Cristian Chivu: 'You won’t even win the Scudetto without me.' Mourinho confronted him and said: 'I want you to know that we’ll win everything without you.' That was exactly what happened."

"In fact, I now have a concern that Milan will win the Champions League," the 39-year-old quipped.

..........
Dint know Mou and Ibra were on bad terms.

That would be just sad (if not a bit disturbing too). That kid had 1/10 of the time Downing have enjoyed.

Mercato 365 saying Anzhi attempted to sign Kaboul, however Spurs wanted 12m Euros and Anzhi didn't want to pay that. Also they weren't impressed with Kaboul's personal term demands.

http://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Corchia-plait-au-bayern/352850

According to l'Equipe sources, Pep and Bayern have targeted Corchia of Sochaux for this summer. He's a RB. I'm assuming they want to start him in rotation and eventually move Lahm back to LB.

Is Alaba that bad?

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon 25 Feb - 4:28

Alaba has been fantastic, i don't get that. scratch

by VivaStPauli Mon 25 Feb - 4:32

There is no moving Lahm "back" to LB, since he's a natural RB; albeit he has played LB again and again.

Alaba is fantastic, he's been better than Lahm for quite a few games now.
If they sign a fullback, it's for rotation/backup. Alaba and Lahm are starting ,and there is zero reason to change that.
