European Soccer off-season transfer thread...

[xblaze23]

Queiroz was talking non stop about honoring contracts this and that... and then he leaves for Portugal NT. Hypocrite.

RM interested in another Dutchie? Damn. VDV was ghost in the Euros.
I thought he was good-great in the Group stage but like many others, played terrible in the game vs. Russia.

Marca broke the story claiming personal terms have been agreed and negotiations between RM, and HSV would begin promptly.. most likely ending in an agreementworth 20 Million.

AS had reported that Real Madrid was indeed going for VdV but for the 09-10 season or that VdV would be one of the players brought in assuming the CR7 swoopfailed.

latest word on Cadena SER is the idea is to sign both CR7and van der Vaart..

I can only assume VdV's potential arrival would mean the departure of Julio Baptista (Roma?)
I hope Robinho stays

.

Yeh...thats what I thought....but Queiroz is gone....I wasn't even expecting this...but it is what it is...there are rumors that Eric Cantona..willcome through and be the second man!!
If he does...Maybe he'll start a French Pipeline.....

Apparently Milan have agreed a 15m transfer for Ronaldinho.

With Barcelona declaring R10 is not part of their plans, you would be thinking why the hell should R10 turn up for pre-season training.

he's on a per-season deal where its up to him if he wants to stay on or take off

I don't know about that. Ronaldinho looking like he's going to Milan more than Man City. Although I'd love to see him in the EPL, I don'tsee it happening any time soon.

it looks like berbatov is definitely going to united

if we can keep ronaldo we will be a force to recon with again next year.

 

[rukawa sj]

A bit too much for Berv... Not that I'm unhappy with the signing!

 

[malloy19]

Going to be a great singing for United, but how much time is he really going to see? For that kind of money I hope alot. From what I've seen he seems likea great player, 10-15 goal season to much to ask?

 

[usedtobecool]

I'd expect him to get plenty of playing time up front. I think he pairs better with Tevez and Rooney than they do with each other. If he starts, around 20goals shouldn't be a problem. He's had 20+ goals in each of his last 4 seasons.

Also, Juve sign DM Christian Poulsen and have said they won't sign anymore outfield players meaning Xabi Alonso won't be moving to Turin.

 

[pay jape]

berbatov on united is scary...
him and rooney are gonna kill.

 

[carlos tevez]

Good signing for Man Utd...once again they overpay though. Arsene Wenger be rollin in his grave

I'm not trying to hate but you've got to assume that Rooney will miss a few games this season due to injury. Plus, with Man Utd. playing 38 EPL games,atleast 8 UCL games (including 2 in the knockout phase), and the FA Cup being important as well, I see their 3 big strikers each getting plenty of playingtime. Sorry, I got to let some of this hate out...Rooney = over-rated. Has scored 15+ goals only once in 6 Premiership seasons.

Is Ferguson going to keep Saha? He'd be a great #4 option, he plays 12 matches a season anyways

Juve fans dont like it one bit. Then again, they didnt necessarily want Momo Sissoko either and he turned out pretty good. Their fear is that acreative midfielder will not be brought in ala Diego or Rafael van der Vaart.

Oh, and Totti better watch his back.

Any news/update on Berbs?
last i heard Tottenham shot it down.

 

[ritchdad]

the epl swears they are going to get EVERY big name.....R10 will NOT be in man city, those papers write that crap so u guys can get excited about the epl

 

[Sinner]

^ hard to say... it ultimately comes down to $$$... and the ManCity offer is pretty hard to refuse... AC probably has the money, but were probably justlow-balling it know Ronnie wants to join them...

another interesting bit... Arsenal makes Barry enquiry trying toscoop up Barry right under 'Pool's nose?

 

[jada2001retro]

Man U got a great player, Berbatov is going to play great, I believe.

 

[smokey1212]

Tottenham won't let Berb go. This deal will get shot down.
