Is there any chance of C Ronaldo leaving Madrid for Man Utd? The papers seem to be very definitive, and Calderon confirmed that Man Utd have been talking to Madrid about it.

Barca (and Spain) run an extensive teamwide doping regime and it is basically common knowledge.

Spain is doing their very best to cover it up but bits are out there. Makes me wonder if Abidals cancer is related.

This is all speculation though. There is no solid proof. Present me the proof.

It seems like it has been to me, its just the really good CBs they went after weren't available; Thiago Silva, David Luiz, Agger, etc. They will probably do another Chygryinskiyiyiyi and buy someone poo poo for 30 million then sell him for 5 a year later.

I still have high hopes that Bartra will make good and solve the problem all together.

Bartra is just so suspect positionally and defensively, I feel confident he will never make it at Barcelona. He was getting ragdolled by tiny strikers in the pre season friendlies there.

A much better prospect is Bagnack, but he is too young right now

We don't speak of Kaka.. man what a mistake that transfer was.

Abidal were called up for the French national team as well. Barca really should have given him another year.

Theres a school of thought that says Rosell let him go because he didnt want the team to potentially be set back by heartbreak again should anything happen to him.

Thats not my school of thought though, I think Rosell should get to gently caress and let Laporta come back. The CB problems not being solved at all since his entrance is another symptom of his bad management IMO.

Edit: ridiculous mistakes

What happened is this: Tata came in and is a very analytical guy and doesnt want to rush into a choice. He wants to wait till January and buy someone then. Clearly this will be fine as they will still be in the CL and will be there or thereabouts in the league. Someone will come in January

Thanks guys, the source is definitely AS, but it seems like a total Galliani move so it's definitely plausible in my opinion. A real center back, I remember when we had those :allears:

Hes not actually very good. Being "linked" to Barca was his agent desperately hawking him in the press to a completely uninterested Barca.

In other news, Barcelona want to buy a center forward and the options (supposedly) are: Aduriz, Agirretxe, Pelle, Dzyuba, Cardozo, Huntelaar, Kiessling, or Cvitanich

Diego Costa declares for Spain

http://www.football-espana.net/37433/diego-costa-%E2%80%98signs%E2%80%99-spain

quote:

Diego Costa has reportedly signed documentation confirming his desire to represent Spain at international level.

The 25-year-old has found himself caught between continuing to represent his country of birth Brazil or La Roja, who he has qualified to play for through receiving Spanish citizenship this summer.

AS are today running the line that the player has confirmed his intention to play for Vicente del Bosque’s side and has now taken the necessary step of signing documentation to that effect.

Reportedly doing so in front of a legal representative this week, this is a letter required under FIFA rules for the player to send to the Brazilian Football Confederation to officially decline their call to the Selecao’s squad which reportedly came last week with November’s international dates in mind.

AS believe that the Spanish Football Federation are anticipating an appeal from the CBF to FIFA on the player’s eligibility to play for Spain, having represented Brazil in two friendlies earlier in 2013.
