Logic

There's nothing dirty about the money.

Since Forlan joined Villareal has been in 3rd, 7th and are at the moment in 7th (IIRC). A. Madrid at the same time has been in 11th, 10th, and at the moment they are in 6th position (IIRC). So Forlan has been in a better team (yes, he probably helps make them better). It's also been pretty well established that Forlan doesn't cut it in the Premiership. But you can't base everything about a player on stats. You also need to take into account what system teams play, how the player is used to be played within a system and a whole lot of other things. To me Bent looks like a Cisse type player. Great to have if you are planning on playing on the counter but not that useful if not. Torres on the other hand is captain of his team and is under immense pressure to deliver for them. He's also playing in a team that actually tries to play good football. Who we should go after if the choice is between them is pretty clear to me. But in reality there is probably very little chance we'd get him.

When a striker his age has a strike rate of 0.4 goals per game in a team that really isn't that good you can't say his goal record is "very poor". Eto'o had pretty much exactly the same strike rate at Mallorca...

I wish we would sign someone as soon as possible.... Preferably world class..... Just so these idiots who are panicking could stop it and instead start complaining about the new signing not being good enough and that we should have went for someone else like Kaka, Tevez, Maradona or Baby Jesus.....

I thought he was on loan as well. But it seems like he was sold to Zaragoza from all I gather. But I agree... it would be weird to loan out someone that good.

Cheers for trying. Completely understand that you won't risk that.

How many 2-in-3 strikers do you know about?

Except in 03/04 and 04/05....... http://soccernet.espn.go.com/players/stats...257&cc=5739

Shouldn't the speculation about the transfer of information between club and media, as well as media and fans fall under the transfer speculation thread?

Could it be that the media is trying to stir things up so that the club starts giving them info? Surely there has to be some pressure on the club to leak some info now to keep the doommongers among us happy after the recent articles the press is putting out there?

Calm down will you (all of you)! A wild guess says we all want the same thing for the club so stop the effing bickering. Everyone of you! It's like a f*cking playground in here............. Anyway.... saw this while searching for some info on a player we actually have signed. Good stuff. http://wwfu.wordpress.com/2007/05/15/playe...ch-lucas-leiva/

:loads FM 2007: Aimar just 27 years old? Why the fekk aren't the top teams in for him?

What's going on in that game?

Why not put it in the transfer speculation thread? well.... don't I look stupid now! damn mods moving the thread while I'm posting!

Agreed! She's a good looking girl but we've got a lot more beautiful/sexy/etc girls here. She's just one who got famous....

Even worse.... He thought the ref had given him a freekick. Player of the year for Reading IIRC......

Thank god I don't live in Sweden anymore.............. Time to fire the Eyjólfur IMO! He should never have been appointed in the first place!

Agreed.

He's not the man with the cash. It's Björgólfur Guðmundsson who got the cash. http://www.forbes.com/lists/2007/10/07bill...dsson_DCEV.html And I wouldn't be surprised if his son is involved as well and he's richer (ranked 249th on Forbes IIRC). They got enough money. There's no doubt about that.
