Barca...........

Surely bank loans dont count as 'self generated income' though?

Don't have a clue

Lecter is the real expert when it comes down to that.

It cant possibly be accepted

Barca were great.

But as great as they was Man Utd were poor. Probably the worst Man Utd team in recent times to win the league. The fact they won the league shows how bad everybody else has been this year.

It's no wonder the Mancs are planning on a massive clear out and massive spending spree.

[RichC]

If its true about Rossi then I'd half expect Villa to be making way - doesn't make much sense to me apart from the age thing

Barca do have the knack of making good teams look piss poor. It doesn't matter who you are, when they get the ball and start passing it around like they do, they will make you look stupid.

I know people claiming Rossi is being bought for the first XI and will replace Pedro.



Like Pedro needs replacing.

Don't think it'll be Pedro that'l be replaced. More likely Villa imo.

[cream]

I don't think he will replace anyone, just add to squad depth, just as Fabregas will.

I think it's very shrewd of them to buy top players like Rossi and Fabregas and let them adjust to the style without being overly important, then when Villa needs phasing out Rossi will be there, same with Cesc and Xavi.

Although Cesc can surely rotate a bit with Iniesta, Busquets and Xavi, they are under alot of pressure and play huge amount of games.

Mascherano is becoming more important to the squad now then at the beginning of the season for example.

The fact it only took the mancs i think 74 points to win the league shows just how poor this season as been. Pisses me off that when we finished on 84 we only managed 2nd.

[Shaggy]

86!

[Leyton388]

86!

84, 86 made no difference as we still finished second. Too many draws

Didnt the mancs win it with 80?

[Leyton388]

I think they got to 74 and couldn't be caught. Finished on 80

[Shaggy]

I think he means it was won, in the bag, with 74. It was thereabouts anyway.

edit - er, yeah. Beat me to it.

[Craig_H]

I see what you mean about 74. Dire stuff this season, in terms of point tally and quality.
