    To answer your question - I miss the fixture but I'm happy watching them take their punishment. They deserve every last second of it but I'll say no more on that in case I offend anyone.

    There will be a counter question about lack of competition etc but the integrity of the game in Scotland was on the line and fortunately, clubs throughout the country stood their ground (under extreme pressure I might add) and refused to fast track them back up the division.

    I wouldn't rule out another bout of administration for 'Rangers' either - they are a financial timebomb waiting to go off. A shambles.
  2. £27.5m for Fellaini is a joke.


  3. dont complain...you was lucky that the transfer about Contrao was canceled
  4. Seedorf still have his quality


  5. True. We should've signed Seedorf

    I've not got a lot against Fellaini, he's a strong player which is what our midfield needs. It's the fact that he's fourth or fifth choice in the market. We could've had Fellaini for £23m before the season even started, but instead it was decided that Fabregas and Herrera were the top choices. Then we bid £28m for both Baines and Fellaini, a bid that Everton rejected before knocking £500k off the offer and removing Baines from the transfer just to push something through this summer. I think his release fee of £23m was too much to begin with.
  6. Etoo to chelsea
    Moses to Liverpool
    Kaka to Milan
    Barry to Everton
    This are the last interesting transfers . I want to see Etoo in a good team again !
  7. The money in football is a madness ...we talk about this many times ,or not ??

    you paid for Bale that money , how about is he has an injury ?? is not better to have 3 or 4 good players than 1 for 100 mill ??????

    For Higuain ( i like how he plays) Napoli paid close to 30 mill ...he played 7 years in Real Madrid and scored more than 100 goals and for Fellaini the same ???? or Contrao ???

    the answers are 2 : or there are some peolple that don t understand about this sport and spend a lot of money in bad way
    or apparently football is a big bussiness adn there a lot of peolple winning a lot of money with all of this things .....

    Perhaps the second answer is the right one .....
  8. A bit of both I think, but primarily the second point. There's a lot of money in football thanks to merchandising, advertising, and TV revenue. Clubs spend that how they see fit. Real Madrid are a massive club, probably the biggest globally. They know that they can sign a world superstar and not only get the best out of him on the field, but also get the most out of him financially.

    TV revenue is the driving force in England. Last season Man Utd made £60.8 from TV revenue which was the most in the league. This season and over the next two season, that figure is going to rocket. It's expected that whoever finishes bottom this season will receive more money from TV revenue than the champions did last season. The previous TV deal was worth £1.733bn over three years. The new deal is almost double at £3.018bn without the overseas rights accounted for (around £2bn). This season's champions are expected to receive around £100m from TV rights alone. That doesn't even take into account the Champions League.
  9. ok , thats way they have big wages ...but pay for a standard player a lot of money ?? I mean for Fellaini and Coentrao ...sure Bale is top 5 football players of the world and sure i think 60 /70 mill for him is ok ..but menay average players are paid 25 mill or 30 mill ...that is madness

    I think the players have to get the money of this circus ...not
    businessman ...the are the body of this big circus and business so is ok that they win a lot of money
  10. 30 or 60 or 100 millions of bucks is NOT ok for ANYONE.


  11. Is ok for me

    Some players that ensure you that you are going to win with them and there property of another club ...just for Messi, CR7 , Bale , Neymar and another one....sure this 4 players are top
    A step down : Falcao , Zlatan, Di Maria, Ozil, Ribery, Scwestainger ( i never know how to write it the blonde from Bayer Munich) , Aguero, Rooney , Lampard , Higuain , Cavani, Bezema, Iniesta, Xavi , etc

    Maybe the first players cost 50/60 mill ( except Messi ...he is 300 mill for me )
    the second step 30 / 40 mill
    There are others players maybe 20 mill , but the average players have to cost 10 mill or something like that
  12. Of course it's ok to spend that much money.
