If Real really offered that 5m signing fee for De Gea when he joins as free agent, dont you think both De Gea and Real keep their mouths shut about it?

Who knows?

These things have a habit of coming out though.

Personally I don't think it's that bad, apart from the fact it's against the rules.


Tbh, I'm amazed more top players don't use the Bosman ruling to their advantage. In the 20 years or so since it was implemented there have been surpisingly few instances of it at the top end of the game (especially in recent years)......Lewandowski, McManaman, Sol Campbell, Ballack, Davids, Henrik Larsson, Cambiasso,. Not many at all. The likes of Beckham, Pirlo, Baggio went on Bosman's, but they were surplus to requirements at that point.
 
Jose Aldo threatens to sue UFC and Chael Sonnen

http://forums.sherdog.com/forums/f2/jose-aldo-threatens-sue-ufc-chael-sonnen-3036503/

"I get a phone call. So I answer it on the car speaker. It's a lawyer from Brazil threatening to sue me for defamation. Her client? Jose Aldo. They said, 'we won't sue you if you stop talking about it.' I said, 'Hold on, I'll go a step further than that, if I said it and it's not true, I'll give them an apology.' I don't want to go around saying the guy put out two X-rays if that's not true, but I'm a little confused here. I parroted this information, I heard it and I repeated it, so where did this story come from? I heard this at a UFC press conference. The attorney said, 'yeah, well pay attention in the next few days, you won't hear the UFC saying it anymore because before we called and threatened you with a lawsuit, we called and threatened them with a lawsuit.' I have to assume he's telling the truth. Jose Aldo is threatening to sue me and claims that he threatened to sue the UFC. That's a pretty big bluff. That's a big enough bluff that I think he's telling the truth."

Whatever happens just want it to be over fast so the keepers and teams can get on with their preseason.

All reports indicate LVG views him as a backup.

Romero is the back up, like I said. Lindegaard may even get a contract extension, I read haha.

Heh a goalie that went to WC and Copa America final within one year is a backup goalie in his club team.

Yeah, basically agree.

GK is one of those positions where it's hard to get excited about. As long as we end up with a good #1 next year, I'm not too bothered.

No hard feelings to de Gea either way. He owes us nothing.

Why didn't he get a new contract from Samp?

All true.
 
Seems CSKA really want John Stones. He should stay with Everton as he will play every week now Distin is gone. Plus the last thing he needs is to be influenced by the wife shagging racist.
 
if he does go, he could be Chelsea's main CB for the next decade

He'll probably go, if not now, then in 1-2 seasons

Stitch was also Amir Khan's go to guy:

Cahill, Terry and Zouma would all be ahead of him, right?

Zouma and Stones in 2-3 years would have potential.

Yeah, he should wait until Terry leaves doe, imo. He is gonna get a lot of games at Everton.

Him & Zouma could be a very interesting pairing.

The offer is decent lets be honest. Yes De Gea is really good but its his last year of current contract. United is asking for world record goalkeeper fee and Real dont wanna pay that much. Nothing shady about that if you ask me.

Nothing like the usual ff we got going. Goals, assists, shots, offsides*, blocked shots (defender), clearances (defender), passing completion pergentage, tackles won (defender), interceptions, interceptions in the box (defender), penalties (defender), accurate passes, discipline points*, clean sheets, saves (goalie?), save pergentage (goalie?), smothers* (not sure what this means), claims succeded* and penaltykick saves.
You go head to head with another manager for one week and you win if you win more categories that week.

Categories with * i dont agree with.

I can understand disagreeing with some, but discipline points? You dont think a player who fouls a lot or picks up cards doesn't affect the success of a team in a game?

Btw, fuck Drogo :)
