I wonder if Madrid will get involved now. Perez said the other day that he'll see if Thiago would fit into the new managers plans, so we might see some movement there soon. Still think we're favourites if we leave and, as someone else said, it might work in our favour if Madrid get involved.
 
I agree with you on Eboue btw, loved by most hated by 2. But Nev's okay, once you accept that threads will ultimately become about him you learn to love him and what he stands for. He truly represents the rebellion.
I don't make threads about me. I say what I think and then other people make it about me with petty vendettas. It's a hard knock life.
 
I like how these sites are all saying the same thing in different ways.

Saw that 2 mins ago, the link provided in it - http://www.elconfidencial.com/depor...hiago-ha-elegido-al-manchester-united-123653/ translates it weirdly.
Can a natural spanish speaker translate it a little better?

The headline says Barcelona know that Thiago's chosen United and the first line says he'll be a United player in the coming days. I can't be arsed/am not able to really translate the whole thing.
 
So, how are we all doing then? Does it hurt? The pain of it all.

Now you're asking for sympathy, typical nev. 'hahalolzy' I jest of course Big Nev.
 
Closed until there's actual news about Thiago or some kinder, gentler modmin decides to unlock it. Go do something with your lives.
 
Betwin has 1/2 that Thiago swaps the Camp Nou for Old Trafford this summer amid reports the deal is very close to happening, while it is 7/5 that he remains a Barca player beyond September 3rd.

Champions League winners Bayern Munich, under former Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola, are 5/1 to sign Thiago, with Chelsea, who have reportedly expressed a late interest, a 14/1 chance – the same price as Manchester City.

For Thiago to sign for any other club this summer, prices range from 18/1 and bigger.
 
Back in business.

Anyone who feels the need to senselessly take it off topic will spend a couple of days getting their Thiago fix from the BBC.

Thanks Dwayne! You should lock and reopen threads more often, now you look like a saint and saviour;)
 
Wait, Cruyff thinks they should sell Messi because they have Neymar?

There is a muppet gold thread to be had if that happens. :drool:

He was making a point that they did not need to buy Neymar.

Any news on Thiago? :annoyed: (had to include that after what Dwayne said).
 
I have a dumb question. The transfer window doesnt open till July 1st so how can the other EPL clubs be completing transfers already, Liverpool etc and how could Thiago sign for us before that date?

You can sing the player whenever you want, but he can't feature for the club before the transfer window is open

You can sign a player whenever you want but you can only register players to play when the transfer window is open, which is from 1st July.

I always thought the deal could be done but the League won't ratify the trasfer until the window opens.

You can buy a player at any time during the year, but he will not be officially transfered to the new team until the opening of the next transfer window.

Pretty much that. You can sign player if you want in February and while the deal would be completed, he won't be able to play for the club before July. Surely there is a ratification from the league, but dunno when it happens.
 
feck sake, I thought something major had happened since the thread was open again :lol:
 
Sorry if already posted but here are the Cruyff comments about Thiago:
“People can think what they want, but Barcelona are not doing this purposefully”, Cruyff told Spanish daily Marca in an interview.
“At this point comes the philosophy of the club – you should assign, sell and invest in a player and do it as what you think is right”, added the football legend.
When asked if how he would handle the situation, Cruyff said: “If he really has little chance to play, then he has to go.”
