I don't think anyone would pay us money for Valdes in January when they can just wait 6 more months & get him for free though.

Yep, that's good for them at least, part of the problem is gone. Unfortunately their president is still a douche.

Yes they did (or were going to) but then Rafa came with his own targets I believe. Don't know if they will try again. Anyway re: Cavani I think it depends on the source, Mediaset seem more convinced he is going to go, some other papers & such are saying Napoli still don't want to let him go...

Yeah & Napoli don't want to sell him so that makes sense that he would only go for that much. He could still go for 55-58 though if Napoli can find suitable replacements with that money I think.

hahah yes, that's what I would do :D

Fee wasn't agreed at all, Napoli wants the 63m (some say it can be 63 + variables). All that happened was an offer was received. Nothing has been accepted yet from what I see.

And Pippo Inzaghi announced as the new coach for Milan Primavera (he was coaching a lower level youth team before that). I'm sure he will have a better fate than poor Gattuso :lol:

You must not have seen or heard what happened to Athletic this season. He should stay far away from Barca.

I'm also reading CdS & there's an interview with De Laurentiis (Napoli president) in which he says he was going to bid 40m for Marquinhos + Lamela before Rafa was appointed but then decided not to go ahead with it. I have a horrible feeling we're just going to let some other club end up with...

According to Gazzetta, Marchetti is valuated at 15m. Let's do it :tito:

Not sure all that's on there, tried to find a real close-up one but couldn't really.

My first choices are Silva/Marquinhos but I wouldn't mind him as an option either. Certainly better than David Luiz. Or Mathieu (though at least Mathieu is cheap so I won't really complain there, as long as he wouldn't be the ONLY CB signing).

For Barca or Brasil NT? :lol:

At Malpensa airport - medical with Inter today. Finally with him & Kovacic a couple of exciting Inter signings.

Mercedes referred to FIA International Tribunal over the tyre testing scandal. Ferrari acquitted.

Messi has little or nothing to do with the defensive problems. Saying stuff like his low workrate this season is making everybody else lazy is a bit too far of a stretch. Defense is a completely different issue IMO.

I wouldn't call him shit or mediocre but is he really the type of player that Barca should be going for when we need so much strengthening? I don't really think so.

Yeah, I would honestly rather see a more balanced & competitive league, than Barca winning year after year with no challengers besides Madrid (when Atleti was closer it was more exciting, but they eventually fell too far behind to be a challenge all season long). To someone who only cares about...

That escalated quickly :D Congrats to both of them!
