Video in this link shows Thiago signing an autograph for a fan. The item he signs is a Manchester United shirt. Does this mean he is ours or does this mean he is just not a total dick so he did not refuse to sign the shirt or does it mean he was not really paying attention to what he signed?

If it's the ladder, someone should get their ass to Spain and have him sign a contract, asap!
 
Seriously disappointed in you lads. Despite showing more restraint than I ever have in my life, I'm still embarrassingly top of the post count for this thread. Cunto and Pocco need to step it up a notch. I need to maintain the fiction that I have a life outside of the internet.

How does one see the post count?

Apparently Milner's been sent off too.

Click on the number of views this thread has - and then scroll down to find how low down of a muppet you really are.


To help - you have 58 posts. EXACTLY THE SAME AS ME :eek: Ok, we're both very low down.

:lol: Didn't realise I'd posted so much in this thread. Crap. This is possibly the first year I've joined in the muppetry, might be enjoying it a bit more than expected.
 
I've been dissappointed in so many of these mega-threads so now I assume the worst and hope for the best

Lol, thanks. I'm actually quite proud of that fact. Both the 58 and the tie with such an illustrious poster such as yourself. We have a long way to go to match Brightonian though. 170? :lol:

I was quite surprised at how little I posted, but then again, I spend most of my time in this thread just reading the pages I've missed out on and laughing away.

I think if we all put the same effort Brightonian has put in, I think Thiago should arrive here before the week is done.
 
Not sure if posted, but seen this on Marca via twitter..

The Thiago affair is quickly becoming a tough task for Andoni Zubizarreta, and a task with no easy solution. Thiago has been one of the great stars that shined brightest during the European U-21 Championships. The whole continent has witnessed the magic that the midfielder is capable of, and the big clubs all know that he is up for grabs, not least because his agent, Pere Guardiola, has been offering him to all and sundry for €18 million.
That is the price stipulated on his contract, and for many it's an absolute bargain. Moreover, many of these big clubs are gleefully aware that the player is none too happy with Barcelona, as under Vilanova he played very few minutes last season. Manchester United is said to be the big gun with the greatest possibilities.
Zubi and Tito have both tried to make the player see that he needs to be more patient. They have assured him that in the end there will be a place for him, that he will be needed and that Xabi and Iniesta also didn't play so much at his age. But these words of assurance seem to be falling on deaf ears. Thiago is not convinced.
Zubi will sit down with him once again. The pressure to have the player stay is increasing by the day, with the Catalan press asking the club to stop the player from leaving. Zubi has to act, and quickly.
The club still has an ace up its sleeve – improving his contract. Guardiola swore by Thiago, and the young midfielder started off earning a healthy €1.8 million in the hand, per season. And there lies Zubi's problem – improving this already generous deal would set a bad example and might prove to be dangerous for the club.
 
I thought his agent was his Dad?


That's what I was going to ask. Some said that he has the same agent as Rio, others said he has the same agent as Welbeck and others saying his agent is his Dad. Well, I know that his Dad is definitely his agent - but does he represent Rio or Welbeck too?
 
Gone a bit quiet so...

...at the Fifa 14 unveiling today Neymar had the number 11 on his back (in a barca shirt) (and on the game not on stage)
 
As I understand,

Marketing and image management agency - same as our Welbeck
Agent - Pep Guardiolas brother
Main advisor - Mazinho (dad)

good it's taken a fair few years to get you hooked
 
Don't think anything will happen in the next days - he's off on holiday and will probably meet Barca officials, coach etc and decide then. :(

Final straw. Thiago better be on the phone to Rosell now telling him to feck himself.
 
I don't think Barca will let him leave. I think they'll offer him an improved contract.
 
They have to let him leave if he wants to, so long as someone triggers the release clause. And at less than £20million, who the feck wouldn't?
I rather meant they'll try their best to keep him by offering him an improved contract.
 
If we do miss out on this guy; there's little to no midfielders available at the level we need. We'd have to settle for Fellaini or someone.
 
Why do people get so surprised that there pages of discussion without any new developments? This isn't a news page, it's a forum, if you're coming here looking for the latest factual news you'll be disappointed. The "I just sifted through 12 pages of this thread and learned nothing" posters are getting tiresome. And this place isn't for learning or improve one's understanding of the current transfer market landscape, it's a tipping site for conjecture and speculation. Deal with it. :cool:

Legend.
 
I can't believe I've just sifted through 12 pages of this shit and there's nothing new. Why do people keep bumping this thread if there haven't been any factual developments? I fully expect us to be outbid by City any moment now.
