Fallen Muppet. Lest we never forget
He pretty much has his own show now.I didn’t think he had presented any had he? I know he’s been interviewed on there once or twice.

Nah. One of those is definitely true, but both can be true.At this point in this saga, only one of these two statements can be true.
1. EtH knows he's coming, it's just a matter of when
2. We are the biggest mugs in all of sports
Well of course they can't make him sign for us, they can only pressurize him to leave while the best they can get is still available.They can’t force shit. If he’s as adamant he aint going United as they say, it’d be absolutely foolhardy to leave themselves looking like morons and likely getting completely fleeced by a club he wants and who know they are desperate to sell, especially closer to the end of the window.
this is truly the mother of all sagas, it's got everything.At this point in this saga, only one of these two statements can be true.

I wouldn't say they were before this summer but they are now
I didn’t think he had presented any had he? I know he’s been interviewed on there once or twice.
That’s true. He would rather have stayed. Shit happens.
Register or not, they have to honour the contract, so what difference does it make? It's financially ruinous for them should he stay. Informing him of anything doesn't supersede what was signed.
Or are you saying for the sake of him playing actual football? Which I think is absolutely the last thing either party care about at the moment.
Sitting tight until the World Cup and forgoing a season doesn't seem unlikely when there's so much at stake - are Barcelona prepared to test his constitution in such a way whilst it could do so much harm to them?
These reports from Spain are complete nonsense. He doesn't have to take a pay cut or leave.
He can just sit out his contract and Barcelona have to pay him.
Ha. Ha. Ha.
Yeah they are the ones I’ve heard.He has been doing a transfer round-up phone-in show last couple of weeks.

Standing by when you get up to R.All we need is plan Frenkie
Why is that?Pretty likely he goes to Chelsea then if he continues to refuse a pay cut?

Ha. Ha. Ha.
I didn't see this as an option. Xavi did not present it as an optionWhat ultimatum?
Frenkie doesn't have to do shit.
"Either take a pay cut, or leave."
Oh ok. How about option 3, I don't take a pay cut and I don't leave?
For our sake I hope he does, but still.
Why are posters coming in telling others it is over and we should let it go?
What's that famous saying? It ain't over until the fat lady si- I mean fat Laporta signs the agreement to pay his deferred wages
Hole? Surely, my good man, you meant to write "holes", or you're simply not doing it right.I'm 35. I work in what everyone classifies as "IT" despite not working in IT, but my job is so unbelievably boring that it's not worth explaining to folk. I have four kids which means that TV time consists of Moana on repeat and outdoor time involves standing around in a park watching someone go down a slide three million fecking times.
I have to spend most of my day nodding and maintaining a minimal level of attentiveness whenever my missus talks about some mundane shite she had an argument with someone about, and watch drab horror and sci-fi movies just to ensure I can get my hole three times a week and not be forced to sleep on the couch with the dog.
If my life was a colour it would be the most tepid grey you've ever seen. Muppet Transfer Season is all some of us have. Don't be evil. Don't take it away from us.
But not registering him whilst registering others, with him on his old contract, would be insane, even by their standards. That's adding debt to debt with zero financial restbite or alleviation mechanism (sale price); Barcelona wouldn't do that... would they (who knows by now!)?Might make a difference to the player but my comments were in response to whether they would leave him out of the team and as of right now they would have no choice unless they want to sit their new signings in the stands. Of course they can pull off some financial chicanery between now and then but time is running out and surely the player is not so lacking in ambition that he is going to be happy to be paid to not play, not at such an early stage of his career when he has achieved relatively little.
Cause he wants CL football?Why is that?
He tell you that?Cause he wants CL football?
When does their tour end?
Meh. I doubt that is a deal breaker.Cause he wants CL football?
Just going off reports pal. It has been said so many times. It would be foolish to think Chelsea have no chance if reports are true that they are interested. I hope they aren't cause I feel we'd lose that race atm.He tell you that?
Barcelona play in a few hours time
If he gets another 45mins or more then surely Xavi sees him as part of his plans, even if it is at CB
@mazhar13 What does this mean and what does it imply?

From FDJ's point of view, it's a few months, not a career, with the World Cup being a unique carrot and opportunity to maintain his mental fortitude. For him, the means would justify the ends because that contract is a fortune, an absolutely crippling one to Barcelona.
In a strategical game of cat and mouse, he holds all the cards, it seems.
Cause he wants CL football?
I get what you're saying, but CL football does have a say in players decisions. Or are you saying it doesn't at all?And the following season?
Yes! Atrocious behaviour by Barca and they surely know he simply does not have to move if he doesn’t want to. They have to make it worth his while.Barca are such a twat of a club. If that's true above then no way he can stay if he had any self respect. Informing him he has to fall in line with wage structure when he already done them a favour. Then barca signing loads of players. Cheeky bastards...what a horrible club.
