I'd like to see Azpi keep his spot too but it wouldn't surprise me to see Mourinho opt for Ivanovic there whom he'll no doubt see as the more defensive stalwart, hardman type.

by Kick Tue Jun 18, 2013 2:11 am

Exactly. I guess like everything, time will tell.

by Shed Tue Jun 18, 2013 2:11 am

Azpi

by Kick Tue Jun 18, 2013 2:16 am

He's still our future starter. Proud

by Shed Tue Jun 18, 2013 2:16 am

Not under the current management...

by Kick Tue Jun 18, 2013 2:17 am

Are you saying they're gonna try buy someone else? Laughing

Once Ivanovic is over 30, he will start, at the latest.

by Shed Tue Jun 18, 2013 2:20 am

Yes, I am. Mourinho wouldn't even start his £30m love-child Coentrao at Madrid because he wasn't defensively good enough. Azpi won't stand a chance Crying or Very sad

by Kick Tue Jun 18, 2013 2:23 am

Lol, Coentrao is better than Marcelo defensively. Marcelo is just a beast in attack.

Azpilicueta will play. Proud

I have faith.

Besides, Azpilicueta is a very solid player in defence, he may not be as strong as Ivanovic but no one gets passed Dave on a 1v1. No one.

Dat Nose.

by Shed Tue Jun 18, 2013 4:34 am

Yea, the penis nose is almost as comical as £38m for Matic rofl

by Kick Tue Jun 18, 2013 4:36 am

I wouldn't pay 20m for Matic.

by Shed Tue Jun 18, 2013 4:38 am

Pay £38m for a player we sold a year and a half ago for less than 5 rofl

by Kick Tue Jun 18, 2013 4:39 am

OORRR buy one of: Thiago for 18m Euros, Either Bender for about 20m Euros, Van Ginkel for 10m Euros, De Rossi for 20m Euros or many, many others.

iirc from the Arsenal section, Bender's buyout clause is somewhere from the 11-13 million pound range. I can't remember what number for sure, but it was slightly above 10 million pounds.
