Can we get serious now guys?
Does anybody have a way to let Frenkie now we're about to reach page 1000?

Hi Muppets, just stopping by to chip in what I can towards 1000 pages.
How's Frenkie, any solid development?

Absolutely agree there. Lifestyle will be a huge one, and absolutely no one could blame him for wanting to stay in Barca for the lifestyle.
I live in Manchester and would prefer to live in somewhere like Spain for the lifestyle
With FDJ not being first choice for CM at Barca , have we heard quotes from LVG asking him to move to a club where he’s a starter so that he can be at WC?
However, when you're very rich you can have a lovely lifestyle anywhere. There are plenty of multi-millionaires who live in the UK through choice!
Do you think if we were a London side and in the Champions League with TH as manager, he would have signed by now?
That's very true.
Don't get me wrong I do love it here and it's all I've ever known, but I'd love the chance to experience somewhere new, more Australia that elsewhere in Europe though. I suppose if you've got the money, you could make anywhere home.
You could definitely play a bingo based drinking game with this thread, just take a shot everytime someone mentions the following in a post:
Big day today
Done deal
Just walk away
Its embarrassing
Deferred wages
17 million
He dosent want to come
Ruben Neves
Youri Tielemans
Fecking John Mcginn
Muppets
Bell ringers
I reckon you would be smashed pretty quick.

Just sent him and Mikky a picture of the Printworks on instagram. Should be done deal soon x
This'll be a very short game
You can make anywhere home, even if you're not rich. In the end, it's all about the people you have with you. I've lived outside the UK for 4 years now, we've only been back once for a few weeks two years ago.
Top footballers have to move around during their playing careers if they're ambitious, but by the time they're in their late 30s it's all over. They have the rest of their lives to live in one place!
Fred and Eriksen is a suicidal midfield. So is FdJ and Eriksen (even though the quality is obvious). The midfield recruitment this summer has been atrocious. We should've recruited at least one defensively strong box to box midfield regardless of the FDJ situation. I've seen enough of Fred over the past 4 years to know that he's not reliable enough for controlling games, even though he's capable of quality here and there.
A good portion of Europe ( I don't know about Northern Europe) will transition to a near sub-tropical climate by 2050. A bit out of reach for Frenkie I think.
You should loan those undies to Frenkie. That way he can finally kick up a stink at Barca
I like that idea. I might wait until later before starting.
Some people will tell you our players are obviously good because they play for Manchester United and only need to be coached properly. I agree with you.
Couldn't agree more there. If you've got people around you that care for you and want to be with you, it doesn't matter where you go really. The advantage the rich have is they can pretty much do whatever they want to make things perfect for them (expensive house, nice car etc). Saying that, money can't buy the important things in life.
I suppose that's the thing with football. It's such a short career that quite a lot of the times players do chase the money because when it's over, that's it. Their careers can also end in an instant too. One bad injury and its over.
Who do we think ETH might use to mold into the Frenkie role? He's always said he wants no alternative and if we cant get him he will use what he has... any ideas?
Reckon we should walk way and focus on Kevin Strootman
Eriksion?
That last point about chasing the money because it could end any time, that’s the agent’s mantra. Every contract could be your last so cash in while you can.
Yes, and we forget that for most professional footballers this isn't an issue because they don't get courted by clubs in other countries. They play out their whole careers in League 1 and whatever the equivalent is in other countries - but then, they don't earn the big bucks. The players we discuss on this forum are the elite few, even the ones we don't particularly rate. It's all relative.
What's the thread title change about?
I know he is good, I rate him highly as a player but I don't think he is worth the drama.
Not really it's damp and about 15 degrees currently here. Pissing it down a lot yesterday too.
When ? Quote? He never said fdj or no one?? He said only the right player or noone
feck him off, where did our pride go. The prick is taking a paycut to stay at a club that doesnt want him.
Even If he does sign eventually, Roy Keane will break into his house one night and eat him with some fava beans and a fine chianti.
It wont end well.

He'll regret this. I posted in the Ronaldo thread the same.
Yes our club is in a low point and has been for a couple of years but all these people acting like we're Everton or West Ham.
De Jong will regret not leaving Barcelona.

Did you see any of eriksen at inter? My guess is he thinks dejongeriksen could work like dejong/schone, despite what bollocks people spout schone was never a tackling ball winner he is a passing breaker up of plAy, more like carrick than anything else. I agree though red/eriksen would be shit, so would neves/Fred, neves/eriksen, neves/tielemans all would get played off the park.
What? De jong hasn’t said anything yet? You do remember timber right? The guy who said no and we immediately moved on from??
So, Fred+McT > Fred+Eriksen?
Some garbage tier 5 source claims Xavi and fdj had a chat about his future and position and "both left the meeting happy" which then brought out the doomer crew to decry the saga was finished, that being happy was likely a sign of him staying..... absolute tosh to rile up people in the thread.
I don’t mind us going until last day of window chasing him as in my view he is worth every effort.
Saying that the thought of potentially going in the season with Mcfred makes me just sad (not adding Eriksen as he will play close to attack)…If not FDJ, I just want to add one quality midfielder!!

So many pages and still no positive news so i give up. This transfer won't happen.
Have reached page 1000 yet? I believe that is the time when we will know for sure.
Stay the course, Muppets. Stay the course...
Written into FIFAs laws. "When redcafe threads reach page 1000....the player in question must provide a transfer update"
feck no, if he tells us he is barcas bitch, then we move on and have to buy more players. Going to cost us though. If you bring in neves you have to buy a quick , strong ball winner, not many around we can easily buy though.
Sangare is available but v raw and a massive gamble stepping up in league quality, never been all that.
Ndidi and neves would cost 50m each minimum and not convinced about ndidi
not sure who else you get for neves, anguissa, gaglardini from inter??
This transfer saga, more like Frenkie de Long am I right guys? Guys?!
