So the GOAT is contemplating retirement.

Are you going to be okay if this happens? lol.

Are you going to be okay if this happens? lol.

It'll be a dark day...but after these past two years took my father, my grandfather, my mother's mobility after her stroke, got my ex pregnant during our breakup sex, and led to me helping the FBI bust a texan pedo ring; I think I'll live

 

[luiginb]

Not interested in N'dicka at all.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Who is buying Alonso though? I don’t recall if we renewed him or not, hopefully not so we could just dump him. Anyway, there are other options. I’d rather gave Riad a shot and spend any Martinez money on any number of young CBs. Gasiorowski of Valencia for example.

LOL, they do indeed. Watch Gavi for one match and tell me he wants to leave.

Marcos Alonso signed an extension

 

[robertmac43]

I'm all here for this one!

 

[Chimaera]

I’m ready to be hurt. Gerrard working his angle. Come on Jude. Sign up!

 

[cgf]

Could be a good move, especially if they stay up & you leave him there on loan for another year. He's not ready for a top club yet, but he's impressed many of the times I've watched for ABK.

 

[JPBolts]

I'm all here for this one!

believe City have a buy back clause & think Chelsea tried to sign him a month after he signed for Southampton. Quite a talent

From all the rumors I've been seeing, Ugarte will be extremely sought after by PL clubs

 

[cgf]

Barca are reportedly trying to convince Olmo not to renew his contract so he can join them on a free next summer.

Only interested in him as a sub.

I think it's a 40 million buyback clause. Will be interesting to see if any club can make something happen with that in place

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Hate to see him go but I just don’t see his future in barca anymore. He probably won’t reach his potential, and someone will pay good money for that potential. Should be 50 million or so.

 

[Savant]

Should go to Spain or Italy

noble of him to want to bring the club money lol

A man of the people for sure.

Pedri - Lewy - Dembele
Gavi - de Jong
Biscuits replacement

Guessing something like that at full strength? Yeah, that's a fair comment, but I'd rather rely on Olmo when Dembele gets hurt than Fati, Torres, or Raphinha, were it my club.

Pedri and Gavi belong in the midfield imo.

Xxx-Lewa-Messi
Gavi-Pedri
Biscuits/frenkie

This is how it should be. Fill in the left wing with someone but this is the base next year imo.

I still like Raphinha over Olmo. But Dani's best asset is his versatility

I feel like that's a fair enough position to take, but I prefer Olmo and like you said, he's so versatile that he can provide cover across the front 3 and attacking midfield.

Especially if you can steal him on a free.

 

[Evilo]

noble of him to want to bring the club money lol

Well he could do like Moussa Dembele and reject every proposal to leave in order to leave on a free a year later?

 

[bluesfan94]

noble of him to want to bring the club money lol

He probably does mean it, though. He's from Lorient and has been with them since he was 8.

 

[cgf]

Funnily enough after the discussion in the other thread, but Frankfurt are being linked to both Mateo Retegui...whose father & agents reportedly meet with SGE's staff recently to discuss a transfer...and Houssem Aouar; who they seem to be targeting to replace Kamada.


Also the Stach to Leipzig rumors are doing the rounds again. I'd really like that for him. He's no star, but he just always leaves a positive impression from the 6...kinda like a modern Kramer.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Messi asks his dad to meet with Laporta.

The poachers continue to try and poach:
