You'd imagine that Sagna would be on the move if true but what of Maffeo's future with a 22 year old coming in?

I thought Danilo was first choice right back then he fucked up his knee and they added Alves to the squad. So thatd make this kid a third choice, Brasilian defender.

Watch on youtube.com
Really old video

Delph seems worth a shot with just 8MM buyout clause. Everyone looks great in the video, but he seems passionate and fast on the ball

So were looking for marquee signings to make us champions again. Find it hard to believe that Delph is one that will contribute significantly to change our fortunes.

Fabinho played defensive midfield against Arsenal so he's versatile. Maffeo is 18 in a few days so I guess he has a little time to develop!

Blue shirt, white collar, dark lettering, unironed. Is this one of those spot the difference games?

Arsenal finally have a decent keeper. (Story is currently breaking):

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33318367

Arsenal have signed Petr Cech from Chelsea for an undisclosed fee.

The Czech Republic goalkeeper, who played more than 400 club games in 11 seasons at Stamford Bridge, has joined the Gunners on a long-term contract.

Cech, 33, made only six league appearances last season after losing his place to Thibaut Courtois.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger said: "Petr Cech is a player I have admired for a long time and I am very pleased that he has decided to join us."

Cech added: "When Arsene Wenger spoke to me about his ambitions for this club, and how he saw me as part of this team, the decision was clear."

Jose will be fucking fuming over this. As would i. Could make them title contenders if they actually bother to buy a world class striker.

Graham Hunter says Rags have bid 40 million euros for Ramos and he has told Real he wants the bid accepted.

I hope he goes personally. One of the most overrated defenders I've ever seen! I'd rather have Pepe out of the two.

Winners at the scum are not a good idea Mase. He is a serious winner, yes plays on the edge of the rules, you do not win what he has without ability. Hope he stays at RM.

Still possible he'll be given a bumper new contract at RM but relations with the Club seem to have broken down for whatever reason. If the rags are prepared to spend big money they will strengthen their squad so there's no point in worrying about it. We will strengthen too.

I too, hope he stays at Madrid. He would improve the rags in defence considerably. Still cant see it happening though, and not at that price
