Guest drukqs11 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) Man City have signed Benfica's Javi Garcia, spanish defensive midfielder, for roughly €30M according to the portuguese press. Hate to see him go. English forum members: get ready for some injuries: that guy is an absolute beast regarding dangerous tackles. Regarding Moutinhho Hulk and Witsel: I wonder why Moutinho never left Portugal (He transfered from Sporting Lisbon to Porto 2 years ago for a internal record fee of 15M Eur if i recall correctly), maybe he just feels well here. Anyway, Porto is a better team then the Spurs anytime anyday. Hulk is an unique player with unmatched pace, acceleration and sheeer power, and Porto made an excellent deal with him, 60M Eur. Witsel well i might be biased because i'm a Porto supporter, but, was an exccent deal for Benfica too, because i don't think he is worth the 40M Eur, altough, he is very young and talented.

Take your Porto goggles off dude, he's tenacious but he's a clean player. Link to comment

Lol I'll have some of whatever you're smoking. Fuck if we'd signed Neymar I would have masturbated for a week solid. no homo Link to comment
Guest drukqs11 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Lol I'll have some of whatever you're smoking. I've watched countless matches with Hulk playing, both on the Dragão or on TV, and trust me, that guy is a beast :). Anyway, i smoke good stuff indeed :P Link to comment
chenGOD Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hulk is a decent striker, but no way is he worth 60 million Euros. Also (and this is no related to the quality of Hulk) but surely Zenit St. Petersburg splashing out this much cash means Financial Fair Play is dead in the water? I mean is there a chance in hell that they matched that in revenue? Link to comment

I mean is there a chance in hell that they matched that in revenue? True, thats why i said it was an excellent deal by Porto! That's called natural gas money! Wenger also talked about it somedays ago in England, concerning of course clubs like Chelsea and Man City. But then, if the club has some investors, what can we do? Some guys just like to waste money playing Football Manager in real life :) Edited September 7, 2012 by drukqs11 Link to comment
Amen Lare Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 It's 40 millions by paper, other sum goes to Hulk and the agent's network. If you don't know, when Porto bought Hulk from japanese club, money was given to lower-division uruguayan club Rentistas (firstly 5,5 mil for 50% rights, then another 13,5 mil for 35%) where Hulk never played or actually been to. That's why Chelsea couldn't buy him, because third-party deals are prohibited for english clubs, unlike in South. There is FIFA investigation on this and many other similar deals by the same highly influential agent. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-02-16/fifa-to-probe-56-million-soccer-player-trading-operation-that-netted-hulk.html Link to comment
YO303 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 sturridge to liverpool for 12 million ... ermm , shit scouting system they have at liverpool, im sure there are better players for 12m outside of the premier league. Link to comment
Npoess Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 David Villa to Swansea. That would be pretty fucking crazy. Still seems somehow likely. Swansea is slowing becoming a spanish camp, and they have a lot money. Link to comment
YO303 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Ba to chelsea? It doesn't feel right but for 7m is worth the risk. Link to comment
Guest Mirezzi Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Very difficult year to be a Newcastle supporter. Shit's totally falling apart and Pardew looks more and more like the middling manager we all thought he would be two years ago. Fuck Demba Ba and his cunt of an agent. I hope his infamous gammy knee falls apart in his first run out for Chelsea. Link to comment
Npoess Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Apparently Wenger is willing to pay 16 million pund for David Villa. I just don't understand what's going on in his head anymore. Link to comment

I hope his infamous gammy knee falls apart in his first run out for Chelsea. If Newcastle manages to sign Loic Remy, they might actually end up being strengthened this transfer-window. At least they will have two quality strikers (Remy & Cisse) that might actually be able to play together. And Debuchy is also a quality player. And once players like Cabaye, Ben Arfa are not injured anymore, things will look very different. Edited January 5, 2013 by Npoess Link to comment
jhonny Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) Apparently Wenger is willing to pay 16 million pund for David Villa. I just don't understand what's going on in his head anymore. Villa is still a top class striker. 2012/13 Spanish La Liga GAMES GOALS ASSISTS SHOTS 12 5 1 9 He'll also fix Wenger's desire for an inside left forward.

Guest Gary C Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 He'll also fix Wenger's desire for an inside left forward. Podolski? Gervinh-hahaha. But seriously, we've got cover for wingers. There's a Japanese kid he's always bleating on about too. Faster than Walcott apparently. We need a lethal central finisher. Giroud is a target-man and Walcott is clearly not going to sign*. Chamakh's gone. Park was the oddest signing I've ever seen. Villa can work as a finisher and he's already schooled in the style of delivery he'd be likely to receive at Arsenal, but he's not the most exciting prospect. Are we going to be both Barca's finishing school and retirement home? *Hope I'm proved wrong. Link to comment
Npoess Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 David Villa is 31 years old and he has injury history. He's a good player, and Arsenal could use him. But not for 16m pund. Link to comment
Guest Ron Manager Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 What's the deal with Sneijder? Is it just his wages that are keeping him from going to any half-decent club? Or has he lost it since he's been on the bench? Link to comment

Or has he lost it since he's been on the bench? Wage demands coupled with injury-proneness. Another thing is that he was arguably the best player of 2009-10 season in the world, i guess he doesn't want to go to decent club like Tottenham but still elite one, at least like PSG. Currently he waits for something better than Galatasaray. Link to comment
Npoess Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Is it just me, or this january transfer-window much quieter than usual? I know the transfers only really gets going towards the end. But I don't read/hear about as many rumors as usual. Link to comment

But I don't read/hear about as many rumors as usual. My feeling is that now it's usual situation since economic crisis and increasing fair-play talk, e.g. after Torres & Carroll swap. Last winter there was nothing like transfers of Lucas Moura to PSG and Pato to Corinthians in terms of transfer fees. New places to look at are Brazilian and Chinese markets. Link to comment
Npoess Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) Not 'transfer related'. But Guardiola is closing in on Bayern Münich. http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/guardiola-apparently-to-bayern/news/anzeigen_110780.html Edited January 15, 2013 by Npoess Link to comment
Npoess Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) Didn't Alan Pardew complain that Arsenal had too many foreign players some years ago? Well... Edited January 24, 2013 by Ceerial Link to comment
