Looks as if Bale is going to Real finally for 95 million euro. Steep price. Spurs are moving forward with getting Eric Lamela and Willian with some of that money. Solid move for Spurs iMO. They were a one man team last year almost, this time around they brought in good players at multiple positions. Easily better than Arsenal.
Just recently started getting really into this sport. My girlfriend grew up playing soccer her entire life so she has started to rub off on me a bit. Funny story, I recently bought FIFA 13 and she is obsessed with it now. She has never played any video games with me before and now she can't get enough haha.
Levy for Chairman! RM seems to be keen on overpaying for our players (first Modric, now Bale). Don't get me wrong, I love Bale but hell, 90 million + euros? Latest reports show that Chelsea has stepped in on the Willian negotiations, so it might not be all set in stone that he comes to WHL. That being said, even if we miss out on Willian, with the acquisitions of Capoue, Soldado, Chadli & Paulinho, we're destined for a top 4 finish this year. COYS
Chelski yet again spending ion Willian not out of necessity but out of desperation or rather to ensure another team does not get him.
It will be so funny when Spuds finish 5th again this season. Good to see that even Spuds fans realize how overrated Bale is. Great player no question, but not worth what he is commanding.
You mean seller's market. But yeah. This transfer window has been out of control. Frigging oil sheikhs.
Chelsea got Willian for some reason. This is like Madrid all over again when they have 10 quality midfielders. Someone has to go. I thought they were loaded at midfield BEFORE Willian was signed.
diving is a part of the game. really they should call it "selling" because that is what it really is. theres a foul but in order for the ref to call it the player must sell it n fall over. i have no problem with that type of "dive" They worst kind is where there is no contact at all. and no team in the world does that more than Barcelona. The notion that serie a players/italians are the only ones that dive is absolutely ludicrous.
