I'm just not convinced on Ibe. Maybe it's because this is basically his first season as a full first team player. Maybe he'll prove himself and become a future superstar, in which he'll probably be picked up by one of the giant clubs. Also I can't stand the way Sterling runs/dribbles the ball. It just doesn't look right. Steven Seagal knows what I'm talking about. Then there's that silly goal celebration where he covers his face. I wished mauri would take over this team.
Of course now that it looks like Sterling is leaving, Ibe is a much bigger talent than Sterling (and has been all along) Hah!
Liverpool cancel their meeting with Sterling. His agent is out of control! Sterling is going to look back at this time with regret he has been given some horrible advice.
Xavi is officially leaving from play in Qatar. It's one of the saddest days for me as he if my favorite footballer.
FIFA Presidential race now down to two men, Blatter basically has it locked up again. Luis Figo put out a pretty lengthy statement that does everything but explicitly state how corrupt the whole system is.
Gündogan apparently going to Barca on Jan 1st, 2016. 34mil fee, five-year contract. http://www.barcablaugranes.com/2015...russia-dortmund-agree-deal-for-ilkay-gundogan
Let's not post every one of these. Couple weeks ago he was going to Man Utd from a good source remember? Let's post and discuss when there are multiple good sources instead of sources like these. Not saying this one is wrong, but I highly doubt it's right and these kind of articles are popping up continuosly.
One generation of players. Iniesta will follow. That is what they call 'Golden generation'. Any club would be lucky if a 'Silver' or 'Bronze' generation followed and not a generation of role players.
The ManU thing was without any details and nothing even remotely saying anything about a contract or sure deal. This time there's a sum, details about meetings (which were known and reported by many sources over the last months) and the duration & date of the contract/transfer. Premier league rumours without contract informations are rubbish and you hear dozens every week.
That was you regarding the Gundogan to Man Utd rumours which were several reports including "reliable" german sources forgot that papers name and Sky Sports Germany's official channel. So please spare me that this blaugrana/Renato who is a better source.
BILD usually is really reliable, so that was not common. But still, all the major outlets were reporting on him meeting with Barca in the past few months and these rumors have been very persistent. And when you hear a real sum, transfer date and contract length, it's pretty solid. We'll see...
Listen son, I'm just trying give you some advice. Those things means squat. Believe me. There will be plenty of transfers and even sagas to discuss if there are good enough sources. So how about we stick to discussing transfers that actually have happened? Or transfer rumours that are heavily backed up by multiple reputable sources. I just hate clicking on this thread to read random rumours. I've not seen any reputable journalists tweeting this rumour.
Don't have to call me son, I'm not new to football and know which sources are more reliable than others. Don't have to be arrogant and "give me advice" either, you're a fan like all of us and nothing more. I'm not reporting trash rumors here and pick out the more decent ones. If you don't like rumors open a new thread, many of us like discussing potential transfers.
Listen, son is not derogatory where I come from. And I'm giving you advice because you seem a little young and naive when it comes to football rumours. That's okay, I'm just trying to speed up the process for you here. No offense buddy. And no, you're not picking out more decent ones. Where is the reputable sources in the rumour you just posted then? An SBNation article from a Brazilian journalist that looks to be living in America, loves pizza and has Basketball and Baseball tweets in his timeline?
Your whole first paragraph is arrogant and derogative, I'm not new to football and I research a lot and know which sources are better or worse. And you thinking this rumour was made by an US SBNation guy shows you don't know anything about it and apparently only receive your informations from US sites that re-spread their rumours from European sources and journalists. If a SBNation article from their correspondent talks about a European rumour it's NOT from SBNation and this guy,they're just reporting what is said in the European source.
Haha, this is pure comedy. I'm not thinking this rumour was made by an US SBNation guy. That was from YOUR quote. Seriously, how old are you? And I asked you a question, where is the reputable source that the article you quoted has it's information from? Show it to me.
