Thiago Alcantara | Signed for Bayern Munich

[elmo]

I don't know what's going down in here but I want in.

De Gea: Part time goalkeeper/Transfer scout. Full time muppet.

 

[elmo]

Dont worry. With Thiago in the team, we never have to worry about losing the ball thus not needing a goalkeeper. He's basically a mix of Iniesta and Xavi, only better technique and a better passer of the ball.

More handsome too.

 

[Burrow]

More handsome too.

I'm taking this as a confirmation that he's been sighted at Manchester Airport!! This is feckin happening!

 

[Wowi]

This is fecking great

If that twitter lad joins the caf his tagline is the most obvious ever. "Studies balls for a living"

 

[elmo]

The sad thing about all this is that it looks like we'll need to get a new goalkeeper, or else how can Agent Dave maintain his new full time post of Globetrotting Player Snatcher?

He's clearly practicing his handling of balls, he'll be catching them single-handedly by the time the season starts.

is there anyone else on the official site refreshing it every few minutes waiting for an official announcement?

 

[Burrow]

I cant believe I'm not even amongst the top 10 posters in this thread after my heroics today.

We've moved on to bugging the official website writers long ago, much faster than refreshing the site.

How many more days can we endure without an official announcement? When will the pain set in for real?

How are they taking the news about our upcoming hospital? I think it's vital that Thiago doesnt take the shine off Carrington Hospital for the Physically Gifted.

Havent you seen the ball? How much more official can it get?

 

[Irwinwastheking]

My Spanish isn't perfect, I admit.

Almost as good as Thiago's Italian.

I think there will be an official announcement in the next 2-3 days as to where he'll go, most likely us.

Why is his hand backwards?

Olly.

 

[Burrow]

Hah, good. The longer they underestimate our hospital, the better.

To increase the effect

This must be the best transfer thread ever!

This must be the best transfer thread ever!

If we end up with him, then sure!

 

[elmo]

This will be the standards that future transfer threads will need to meet before it's considered on.
