GFFN is reporting that Juventus will announce the signing of Blaise Matuidi tomorrow

If it were a few years ago that would be a fantastic deal but he's past 30 now, and as we remember Pirlo was past his prime at 31

Is it not the African equivalent of like "Erikson" or "Henderson" which derives from "son of" from generations ago.

goddamn rakitic would be an absolutely massive signing for LFC. I feel like he's a better player than Cooter, am I off in thinking that?

He is, he's just much older and not Brazilian so likely half the value.

There are reports that Barcelona bought Paulinho because Bartomeu is doing development deals in China, and he did this as a bung to Guangzhou's owners, as they are developing projects he is trying to become a partner in.

Barca even released a statement today denying it, which means it's got to be true imo.

Matuidi was just photographed holding up a Juve scarf in Turin, so that's that for midfield reinforcements I guess.

If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.

quote:

VAN DIJK 'NOT FOR SALE'

Southampton chairman Ralph Krueger is adamant that Virgil van Dijk is "not for sale in this window".

The defender has handed in a transfer request and speculation continues to link him with a potential move to Liverpool or Chelsea.

But Krueger has told Press Association Sport: "Virgil is not for sale in this window and it's not personal.

"It's not about him, it's about an overall much, much, much bigger picture - a change of course for Southampton. That's one player in this whole equation of 25 and it is the visible one, but for us it's the principle and it's the path and it's the statement we need to make to get to a new space as a club.

"We are very, very adamant about carrying this through."

He is poo poo. Spent most of last season on the bench and then in reserves. He's so bad we dropped him from the national team.

A good lad who played in a bad team and did his best with the meager poo poo he had to work with. I hope he does well.


Would have him back at Milan in a heartbeat. I don't care if he's poo poo now.

Yes, exactly this. He was fine being benched to draw his ridiculous Qatarbucks salary but apparently PSG doesn't agree, but for some reason they're having difficulty finding people willing to take him!

You'll be saying this right up until he signs for City though, then he'll have always been poo poo and if he wasn't why didn't United keep him?
