Mario Gotze

[G]

Every year we start threads and every year we are let down, expect for the threads of those players that sign

[Roboklopp]

...who then turn out to be ****e.

[Buzzo]

Probably we'll just go all out for Marco Reus now

[frank the tank]

Has Alonso signed a new contract yet? In the europa final then it was obvious that we missed leadership on the pitch.......Xabi on a free would be ****in brilliant.....

I think he might be up for a return to LFC as well.....but if we were not interested then I wouldn't be surprised to see him rock up at one of.his old manager's clubs.......Guardiola.......or worst case scenario.....Mourinho

Alonso would never sign for Manchester United.

Wise move by young Mario. Get rid of the agent and pocket more money himself next year when he moves on a free

Drawing a veil over this thread would stop me clicking it with forlorn hope.

Bayern Munich on Thursday suggested Mario Götze’s playing future at the German champions may remain on the bench, even though he showed his desire to earn a starting spot after turning down a possible to Liverpool.

“I had talks with him (Mario) and Ancelotti. Mario knows the thoughts of Bayern,” Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge told Kicker magazine. “Everything was clearly and seriously explained to Mario.

“He knows what the club thinks and what the new coach thinks. Mario has to evaluate for himself whether he wants to play constantly.”

Basically that's a "get out of our club" isn't it?

It's a clear sign that Gotze doesn't fancy a move to us and is prepared to rot on the bench for a year and leave on a free in the summer. Bayern are dreading that he might join Dortmund on a free so are trying to literally boot him out the door.

Jaysis that literally does seem like a "if you want regular game time, you certainly won't get it here".

[BigChief]

If he was that good then Bayern would be sending out (albeit false) promises of playing time to convince him to stay. I'm beginning to wonder what they don't like about him so much. Rather than lose him for nothing to Dortmund I think they're just concerned they don't want to lose him for nothing full-stop.

[Daffy Duck]

This will be like Sahin. Bayern will force him out, they'll only accept our bid because we'll offer more cash and less competition than BVB, he'll come here eventually and be miserable and ****.

Or Juve will suddenly take him for €12m

He'll fit in well with some people on this forum

[Fosterbloke]

If they want him gone then why have encouraging talks?

they couldn't give it a **** if they lose him but certainly want to make some money out of it.

But without paying him a golden handshake to go
