Transfer Business at Other Clubs (aka the other Wish List)

Couple of decent wheels for the Chelsea bus if you can afford them.

Rex

That's one of the things Real Madrid and Barcelona have going for them - wherever a player goes after that is a step down.

Claudius

Am I missing something?
Either the journalists or Chelsea are mad, but how does a double bid for Higuain and Cristiano fit into financial fair play?

Rex

It doesn´t.

Burnwinter

I was assuming the article was bullshit myself, just a nice fairy story.

Claudius

If I was a journalist, I'd struggle to put my name next to a story like that. It makes zero sense.
Only an ignorant, dreamy-eyed fan would even want to believe that nonsense.
Kenny Dalglish should write for Soccernet. That would be a match made in heaven

Burnwinter

The only nanofilament sliver of logic to it is the Mourinho connection.

However, it's beyond me why Mourinho would leave a (probably victorious in La Liga) Real Madrid to coach the geriatric has-beens and erratic tyros of 'his' Chelsea.

flobaba

More Money. He's a merc in case you hadn't noticed.

Plus the odds of him winning the premiership again, even with the geriatrics at Chelsea are probably higher than him doing a repeat of the La Liga next season- as long as that mutant midget mofo remains at Barca.

Claudius

you mean the doped-up dwarf, flobaba?

flobaba

I'd say he's more an incorrigible imp. But yah, we're probably talking about the same one.

Burnwinter

I don't think Mourinho goes where he doesn't have an even chance of winning.

SimplyThePest

Somehow, I don't think Mourinho would do as well as Ferguson has with the current group at Man Utd. It's Man City or bust if he returns to England.

Not sure this fits this thread but it's suggested that Flamini is leaving Milan on a free transfer at the end of this season (having started just 50 of a possible 144 games).

I wonder if Wenger would be tempted or is he beyond repair?

Captain

Let that weasel rot.

y va marquer

That would be my reaction as well,
but Wenger does like free, and he is not averse to bringing players back.

Klaus

He doesn't take old players back if they've deceived him. He rejected Anelka for similar reasons.

spacemanspiff

I have no real problems with Flamini. It's not like he fucked us over mi-contract, he fulfilled it and Arsene didn't offer him a new one until it was too late. No deception in my opinion. Hleb was the real arse that year.

Clrnc

Nah, he is as big a cunt as Hleb

kamikaze

i'm with spaceman spliff on this one.

btw, only on the internet do you ever get to say/write things like the above.

lorddulaarsenal

And in south england or Scotland
