You’re not claiming ITK there Romano. A goldfish in a pond in Fiji could have told me that.
After the various departures, Valencia are in talks to renew the contracts of 3 players: Gabriel Paulista, Daniel Wass, and Jose Gaya.

The article itself reveals some more interesting info:
- Valencia are looking offload both Cillesen and Rodrigo.
- Jose Gaya rejected offers from Champions-League clubs with bigger paychecks in order to remain loyal to Valencia.
As expected; that Barcelona side never really got going under him.
He tagged Sky Sports Italia, so it seems like something coming from them instead of Romano specifically.
If Barcelona do not restructure and fix their ways, Messi will leave the club after next season.
The restructuring requirements:

The restructuring requirements:
- Sacking Setien
- Bartomeu's resignation
- Locker room purge (selling players that don't fit in/work well)
The timing of the piece makes this seem redundant, but Inter are open to integrating Perisic into the first team if Bayern do not trigger the purchase option.

You’re hoping RM right ?

Don't think he has enough clout. He'll be 34.
Imagine choosing a 33 year old has-been on absurd wages over Coutinho. Peak Arsenal.I bet they are thrilled
I am Jacks total lack of surprise.
Sounds like he's just looking for a reason not to leave. Barca at their worst still aren't that bad in perspective. QF of CL, challenging for the title. Messi has probably got a bit bored and wants a new challenge but needs a bit of a push to do it.
I wouldn’t bother with that poster mate, clearly doesn’t have a clue

great postSure we only signed 4 players but we also had Williams & Greenwood come in. Axel was supposed to count too but obviously injured. Ighalo on loan, kinda doesn’t count but he technically is another player being available. The point is the aggregate incomings/outgoings have been quite balanced but only due to our academy helping. We didn’t ‘sign’ more players because of the deadwood (Players you mentioned and a few more) we haven’t been able to move out. Some of these players were given sort of a last chance and we kinda couldn’t have moved them on along with all the other outgoings by now. Hence, I think to answer your question (in bold), it’s not like we won’t sign anyone. But there will be some sort of a rule to offset each incoming with at least 1/2 outgoings first and hence all this news of us only working on one transfer at a time. It’s not like we can’t sign any other players apart from Sancho, we’re first trying to sell others before we buy.
It’s also a risk to first solidify first team before fixing the squad. I think both efforts work in tandem whereby signings will be made if and when we make space for one, and when is the timing right.
As untrustworthy as our board may be, us having qualified for CL will go a long way this summer. Likewise, getting Sanchez off our books will as well. I’m confident we’ll have 2/3 players coming in but with some outgoings first. If anything, I’d suggest you to have more faith in the board as compared to previously
Sancho movement also got initiated very promptly in my opinion. Sure it’s a mess right now but let’s say we truly are interested in signing him and do end up paying the full amount in terms acceptable to Dortmund, we will surely take our time to test their resolve completely before caving in to their demands. So in hindsight, I actually don’t think it’s a mess. Dortmund has already paid all their cards so now the ball is in our court and we can take our time. Even practically speaking, spending 120m in current situation would have to be the last straw. We need to show that there was literally no other option but to pay and for that we have to exhaust all our efforts first. The window having just opened means we can’t be seen caving into their demands so soon.
Hence I’m actually content with how our transfer ops are going atm. But me and you can touch base again in a months time and see which one of us was more accurate in our predictions
He's like the anti-Batman of Manchester.
The ebb and flow on this thread over Woodward is a riot. I wish we could graph it.

Yea basically. Not sure why people refuse to see a bit of reality. Any criticism of a player not up to standards and people get their knickers on a twist. Yes, Mourinho was a big mistake to appoint as a manager at the club, no matter what he won. I was totally against it because of his behavior.
Go and live in denial. Most probably what you do in life.
Pochettino has said in the past he would never manage Barcelona due to his Espanyol links.
Can't see that happening but stranger things have happened.
Yeah, I personally think that Xavi's a big favourite. After seeing a bunch of different teams go after former players who understood the club and knew what it was all about, it wouldn't surprise me if Barcelona decided to go after Xavi.
You are wrong that he is decent. Jesse Lingard isn't good enough for a top 6 side. He has been awful for at least a year. All he does is run around the pitch. We simply have to get rid of him.
there was nothing wrong with him saying I have a bad feeling lingard will stay. He has been absolutely appalling for over a year. If Lingard stays, I too would be extremely annoyed.
Can't see Poch or Xavi coming in for one year for a dead man walking. Xavi is waiting for after the elections and I can't see Poch coming in and playing with a new President next year and probably replacing him. This squad is such a disaster it would be a terrible situation right now to walk into as the new President will usher you out and clear house.
He went back on his word in an interview the other week, said something like 'never say never' when asked about Barca.
The guy is desperate for a job, he'll take it of offered, but it's nailed on as Xavi.
Xavi has been earmarked for this position for the past year.

If Poch goes to Barcelona it'll be for a season or 2 maximum before Xavi takes over

No they wont. Napoli are looking to cash in.. trying to drum up interest.
How is he going to play his high press with Alaba, Busquets, Rakitic, Pjanic, Messi, Suarez & Pique?
No idea hence the season or 2 estimation.

Uh oh, what happens to Henderson then? If he comes back to United, I’m worried things will come to a head with the De Gea situation and he might demand a permanent transfer away.
What are you guys doing with Romero? Surely he won't stay as 3rd choice.
Forget that, I don’t think Deano’s coming back to be back up, worries me that you lot are going to go after him.
Henderson will go back on loan for a season. Bit annoying Sheffield have signed someone, but you can’t blame them. Plus, Henderson is actually really good so I’m sure we’ll find someone to take him for a season again.
There’s no way we can find anywhere to throw De Gea away to. It’s a year too soon.

If Henderson comes back, no doubt he'll be sold. No doubt we'd be able to find a buyer for him.
I'd take him at Chelsea. Solid performer everytime I've seen him, wouldn't cost the world and an upgrade on Kepa and Willy.
I think it’s a good thing. Ole seemingly has made his mind up what he wants in the goalkeeping department and told Sheffield Utd that he ain’t going back there! There are a few possibilities:
1) A club comes in and makes a big offer for Dean (maybe Chelsea)
2) De Gea has been told he has to fight it out with Henderson (as equals) to claim the number one spot- his huge wage is the problem with this one
3) De Gea has been told to find a new club as Henderson is coming back as number one.
4) We sell Romero and Henderson stays as back up (unlikely he’d want to)
Intrigued to find out which it will be
