Martial is fuckin shit

[Peter Doherty (AGAIG)]

Martial is sick of rugby he wants out, wants away from the relentless hoof ball.
It won't happen but he be good under pep I would wage.

Wasen't he the next Messi? Didn't Tyler had an orgasm when he came and scored as his debut vs scouse?

My, my, how things change.

No idea why any attacking player would want to play for Mourinho

Money.

Antoine Griezmann is set to announce whether he will stay at Atletico Madrid or join Barcelona on Thursday in a Spanish television special called "The Decision."

In a stunt that recalls LeBron James' move to the Miami Heat in 2010, Griezmann said he will let everyone know before France's World Cup opener whether he will accept a new contract offer from Atletico or push through a €100 million move to the Camp Nou ahead of next season.

A video filmed by Griezmann at his home in Madrid, posted on Twitter by Movistar, teased the 27-year-old's decision.

"You're fed up with all the talk -- am I going, am I staying, how much they will pay me, how much they won't pay me," Griezmann says in the trailer. "But the truth is what I am going to say now ... "

The clip then fades to black. The broadcast will be shown at 9:15 p.m. Spanish time (3:15 p.m. ET).

Eight years ago, NBA star James revealed he was leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers in an ESPN live show also titled "The Decision."

Several outlets reported that two versions of the video have been filmed, one with Griezmann announcing he will stay at Atletico and the other announcing a move to Barca.

Barcelona and Spain defender Gerard Pique responded with a tweet soon after the teaser video, joking that he would be eating some popcorn while he watched.

Griezmann, Atletico's top scorer for the past three seasons, said at a news conference on Tuesday that the decision was made but that he was not yet ready to go public.

Multiple people within Griezmann's inner circle told ESPN FC later on Tuesday that they want him to stay at Atletico, and all signs point to him remaining in Madrid. France Football reported Griezmann will sign a new contract in Russia at some point on Thursday.

I thought the same as both of you and its not the first time the prick has done this. He's the Michael Jackson of football, loaded with self delusion.

According to the MEN, Barca want Gundo who will 'cost them in excess of £50m.' Silly season in full flow.

The best bit is they apparently want him as a replacement for Iniesta. I reckon Iniesta would have to be 70 years old before Gundogan could be classed as comparable.
