Are we really in for one of the best RB in the world? "Drools"

I know its dailymail, but still if its true what a signing that will be!

BVB very close to signing Bernard from Brazil, the wonderkid that Klaus's friend raved about.

Interesting. Only seen youtube clips of that lad myself but he seems like a class player. Would love to get a chance to watch him more regularly.

Pellegrini and Isco to Man City, done deal apparently.

Yep, if they get Cavani too they'll have a class forward line.

Toure - Fernandinho
Silva - Isco - Aguero
Cavani

biggest problem for city, imo, have been their dependence on silva to provide creativity and vision; especially transitioning from midfield to attack. with isco they'd have much more balanced side, giving aguero and yaya more freedom to do their thing.

If any of these financial rules are going to have an effect (and I actually think they have in the last couple of transfer windows), then there is no way City could afford to spend another 90m on transfer fees and a further 20m on wages.

According to Sky Italia Falcao has confirmed he's joining Monaco...

Great news. Hopefully all the massively unambitious money driven players will be going to France and not Chelsea/City from now on.

So strange.

No tax.

Still.

I guess you can't underestimate a footballer's willingness to play anywhere if the pay is good enough.

How much are Monaco rumoured to be paying as the transfer fee?

Sakho is on his way there too, apparently.

50m euro (or whatever his release clause is; something like that).

Exactly. 12m a year living there with basically the freedom of the city; no brainer.
