The only reason Kaka survived at our club for so long was because we actually made money of him. In the end it was he who decided to leave. This is the same kaka that couldn't even get off the bench ffs

Merchandise wise Barca will be fine with both

You forgot the fact that Kaka was already an established star with his own legions of fans before joining Madrid. Sure naymar can still make a lot of money playing with Messi but it might not be the best way to maximize profits. By cashing out on Messi now Barca will 1) Make the same money in advance without taking any risks, 2) Save on Messi's ever growing Salary, 3) Make Naymar the new Barcelona guy which initself will put him in a similar position as Messi in the eys of sponsors 4) Avoid any problems on the pitch and in the locker room.

I'm not saying it will happen but it makes sense financially.

Atletico Madrid interested in Iturbe, according to Sky Sport Italia. He's currently on loan at Hellas Verona from Porto.

We didnt sell him for more in the summer so why sell him for less in January ? that doesnt make sense

by M99 Thu Dec 12, 2013 7:07 pm

Guarin at Man Utd? That's an unusual transfer.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu Dec 12, 2013 7:16 pm

Reading that its saying Man Utd are interested and they believe he would be available for 15m.

Which is likely bullshit as the english media make crap as they go along.... keep in mind they still think we would sell Cabaye for 10m Laughing

guarin would be more expensive than that? on what basis?

by B-Mac Thu Dec 12, 2013 7:20 pm

I really don't believe any rumours pre transfer window....we bought Garay 10 times before the summer and then during the summer Laughing

They rejected more in the summer, nothing else really as he's not that good.

But clubs decide the value not the quality of the player.

Carrick - Guarin

Rodgers takes on Euro trip to watch highly-rated Draxler star against Basel

Brendan Rodgers personally flew to Germany last night to watch Julian Draxler star for Schalke in their Champions League victory against Basel.
The 20-year-old German international is drawing interest from clubs across Europe and the midfielder, who plays in the No 10 role, is a long-term target at Anfield.
Although Steven Gerrard is having an excellent season in the heart of the Liverpool midfield, Rodgers says he sees Gerrard, now 33, dropping into defence as he gets older, with Draxler a potential successor to the England captain.

Draxler, who burst onto the scene at Schalke at just 17, scored to send Schalke into the knockout stages of the Champions League.
Basel needed only a draw to progress but Draxler starred, picking up the man of the match award before being taken off after 66 minutes because of a groin injury.
Liverpool will face a fight to sign the highly-rated youngster, with Chelsea and Arsenal leading the charge for the playmaker.
Kevin de Bruyne, who increasingly finds himself frozen out by Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, could be used in a swap deal for Draxler.
Arsenal have long been admirers of Draxler, but last month Draxler said he needed regular first team football ahead of the World Cup, which could open the door further for a move to Anfield.

anyway I don't think Manchester United needs of a midfielder as Guarin ... He can be useful but they need of other characteristics, it is to get around the problem without solving it.
As it was for Fellaini.

by Firenze Thu Dec 12, 2013 7:39 pm

Mcagger blowing his load prematurely. You have 0 chance of signing Draxler.
