Carragher to Sky Sports

Now that is one of the worst decisions ever. Not knocking his expertise, just his accent is horrendous for TV.

Keep hearing murmerings of a £25million bid for Rooney from Chelsea and Arsenal, would be a good move for him IMO.

Badman & Robben

Suarez out..
Robben in.

Strong rumours of a deal with Bayern about to take place.

Wouldn't be too disappointed with that. I've watched Robben play for Bayern a number of times and he's still a quality, hardworking player. More so now he's knocked the dramatic diving on the head.

As Higuain is almost a done deal to Arsenal, expect Suarez to head to Madrid. I'm not sure Robben would leave Bayern for Liverpool.

Fabregas to United is the one I'm hoping for, and if Suarez doesn't head to Madrid then I expect Hernandez to head there. I'm not sure how true it is but I read today that Ronaldo has said that if they don't want him to go back to United then he wants £615k a week to stay I'd love him back, just not sure Madrid will sell, though I keep hearing about a deal involving Hernandez and £65m and Nike.......

I can't see United agreeing to the salary he wants, unless he accepts a huge pay cut.

Here's one to ponder,
Phillipe Coutinho has aked for a fellow countryman by the nickname of Gaucho to be brought to Anfield.
Gaucho? who's that then?


You might know him by his first name, Ronaldinho.

If Suarez goes, there will be a pot of gold to be used, Ronaldinho would make good commercial sense as a high profile player, shirt sales alone would run into milions of £ in revenue.
Ronaldhino has a contract to the end of the year, Scolari will most likely target a younger player to replace him. He could make an early deal with Liverpool in the summer.

What a team Liverpool could have if Robben makes a move too.

What a team it would be to introduce younger players into to work alongside some very experienced players.

Dream or reality? time will tell.

Can't see a reason for Ronaldinho to move to Anfield if I'm honest.

I see a lot of ralk involving bayern players, but is that a smart thing to do??

After winning the treble Guardiola changing the way they play for a more "barcelona" style of play would be a risky thing to do.

If they are not top of the league at the winter stoppage period his head would roll, heck, IF they lose the first 2 or 3 competition matches he's done for.
Bayern has the financial backing to keep this current/winning team together, so any bid on a Bayern player would need to be massive, and probably would have the player concerned taking a rahter large pay cut.
Their saviour Lewandowski (rumoured to go to BM and for which they would probably sell Gomez, Mandzukic and/or Robben) was nowhere to be seen in the CL final, or in the german cup final, so maybe they will keep this team in place until winter then decide which players they let go.

That would however rule out those players for European matches (if they at least play 1 CL match) and make them less valuable for teams competing on CL or EL levels this season.

£12m for Samba?! If that doesn't smack of money laundering, nothing does.

Arsenal for Suarez I'm hearing - wtf. William Hill suspended betting last night because it was pretty much a done deal.
