RVP has announced he won't be signing a contract at Arsenal, no real surprise.

According to Sky its a "shock."

He'll be a City player by August, deal already agreed and has been for some time.

Liverpool have been 5 times, but their fans are constantly being told they are no longer a big club and that they are some way behind Man Utd, who only have a measly 3 CL trophies to their name.

Gaston Ramirez' move to Liverpool is growing increasingly more likely.

Marcelo Biesla has resigned as coach of Bilbao after a bust up with a builder!

Re: Football Chat Thread - Euro 2012 edition : Fri Jul 06, 2012 10:56 pm  

Bielsa took the law into his own hands after work on the new training facilities was late starting, then incorrectly built when they finally got round to it.
The company responsible for redeveloping Lezama is Grupo Cobra. Who owns Grupo Cobra? A certain Florentino Pérez.


Park Ji-sung to QPR for £5m. A very good buy for a club like them whose primary aim is to stay up.

Bielsa leaving Athletic is a big deal. I reckon players like Martinez, Llorente et al would have been happy to stay for him, but while uncertainty remains, I can see them being tempted elsewhere. The new man needs to be in place soon. Presuming Guardiola is still roller-blading down Santa Monica Boulevard, Cesar Sampaoli is the man for me.

Park to QPR for circa £5m? kerching

Park has many qualities, but quality isn't one of them
