Interesting. Well, Sevilla says no one has bid so it's not that close.

To be fair I think I could score 30 goals a season in the Spanish league.

If he is fit he will.

Big big question marks on his fitness though, hence the low transfer fee.

Good signing for Madrid though, suggests they have given up on Negredo too.

Fitness shmitness, that's not a low fee, but a criminal one. 5 mio. Euro, fuck me. Either we were asleep or he really doesn't want to leave Spain.

Around the time he joined Barca there were rumours coming out that he didn't want to play outside of Spain (not because of any mental condition, just that he didn't WANT to).

Tbh, I'm rather happy for Atleti that they got Villa. sure, hes 31 and hasnt been the same since his broken leg but he could bang in some goals for them. They keep having to sell their best players when "big" clubs come knocking. It was great to see them win the Europa league and Copa del Rey. A glimmer of hope in La Liga.

Also, anyone else think we should be trying to snap up young Spanish talent?

Thiago looks to be going to United, RM sign Isco and maybe Illaramendi (or however you spell it), and Tottenham might try to steal Jese from RM. I understand that RM are a huge club and they're in Spain but Spurs and United aren't in Spain. It sounds like we want young talent and some of those Spaniards look good and annoyed that they're behind so many players at RM and Barca...

I just read about us and Osvaldo like guy is Messi really don't get it. He play 29 games in seria A last season score 16 goals and it s always in article that we selling Dzeko or Nasri will go or this and that if that or this happen fuckin guess this and that.Why we have such poor transfer communication in club towards fans. I get that any club can't say we going to buy this or that but other fans at list have some idea where in witch direction club is going, potencial targets , trashing bad rumors ,something. We have bean all over the map Cavani,Lewandowaki, Suarez,Benteke,Torres, Cardoso , Negredo,Osvaldo are we selling Dzeko or Tevez , now are we selling Dzeko buying Osvaldo and Negredo or just Negredo or neither , are Nasri staying in club ,is Kolarov for sale its all fuckin guess. Today i read we never bid for Negredo, crazy.I read some forums at Roma and fans know most of the things club is traying to do, there is some unofficial things but they know who is on move who is for sale who they try to bring some communication is there. I was reading in one day that we bid for Negredo , Lewandowski ,Osvaldo ,Cardoso , insane.

Apparently we have agreed terms with Pepe according to papers in spain.

Tbh bit meh on this transfer, Pepe is a great defender, probably would really do well here for a year or two, but he is a bit old to be spunking £18 million euros on....

Kinda throws the frugal spending argument down the drain somewhat...

Yup looks pretty much nailed on

For £4.4 million, snitch for a player with his skill.

Only if the figures quoted are accurate. I think if Pepe comes it'll be specifically to do with our progress in the Chimps League. I really don't like the guy but if he's kicking the shit out of rag players on our behalf (and not getting sent off) then he'll get my backing.

Just read about the whole pepe thing, would appear we have agreed personal terms now need to thrash out a transfer fee... Pellegrini's top target apparently...
