Village Idiot Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 "El Mundo" (sort of our Daily Mail) reports that Madrid have a precontract with Neymar, with a €100m penalty clause if he intends to break it (very similar to what they did with Figo) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Is that last bit referring to that bizarre new league system they've adopted? It sounds just plain, well, yeah, bizarre. It's been binned for the time being as far as I'm aware but aye it's a farce. I don't know whether it happened in the end but I think there was planned large scale protest before Grondona and AFA backed down and changed it. I assume it's just gone back to the same system as last season but I'm not 100%. That system is hard enough to keep up to date with it since the relegations are over a 3 season point average which has its obvious many flaws but it does have a positive in that in theory no games are pointless as you're always playing to boots your points average. There was talk of a new Copa Argentina too, I think thats going ahead though although I don't know in what format. f***ing hard work tbh although last season was class so I'm going to persist with the following of it. So have River Plate managed to *cough* negotiate their way out of relegation? Not yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Apparently we'll sign Argentina´s U20 goalie Andrada after the U20 WC finishes. Good long term deal, as we don't really have any outstanding goalie prospects to replace Valdés. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tisd09 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Canales has completed his 2 year loan transfer to Valencia. They will have a buyout clause of 12m the first season and 15m the next, and Madrid a buyback clause of 2m more than Valencia paid. Great deal for everyone involved, I think. Also, as in every Real Madrid loan since Valdo tore them a new one years ago while on loan, he won't be able to play against Real Madrid. Excuse my ignorance here, but say Valencia buy him outright can they sell him a year or so later to say Barcelona for megabucks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridman Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Seems like the price for goalkeepers has been rocketing up recently This year alone we´ve seen De Gea go to Man U £18m Neuer to Bayern £15m Muslera to Galatasaray £10m Courtois to Chelsea £8m Gago to Zaragoza £8m Five of the 9 most expensive goalies in history have been bought this year.

BottledDog Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 That probably paves the way for Sturridge going on loan? Would be lovely but he seems to be getting a lot of time on the pitch, and seems to be playing wide right a lot so maybe they are thinking of using him differently to Lukaku. Would be the perfect signing for us though and would happily pay through the nose for the lad. Great player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
