That's bang out of order, if true

[Roboklopp]

Aye . No idea of the source tho.

[Scratch]

Call his bluff, and if he does refuse to play/train then fine him. We hold all the cards here, and the sooner he realises it, the better. Pretty sure Barca won't be back in January if he's neither playing or training.

Of all the utter bull**** this transfer window, this surely takes the cake. Why would he jeopardize his World Cup when it's clear we're not selling him?

[Roboklopp]

You'd hope so aye. Am sure he'd be in breach of contract too.

What can we do if it's breach of contract? A fine, maybe. No point in cancelling it, that's what he wants.

[Alex]

Is it? Or is it just mindless speculation?

We have to take him on his word for this injury, and if he goes (which I doubt) then who cares. We will have a nice wedge of cash for opening a new club shop.

Lads, just take all the reports from Spain with a pinch of salt as they are trying to help Barcelona's agenda but the fact remains the same, not for sale!

[Roboklopp]

I am.


But not pay him until he stops being a tit (assuming he is).

Yeah, I doubt he's stupid enough to make those kinds of threats. Barca Press in overdrive. On the hypothetical situation though I agree on the principle: no play, no pay. Plus no training either, not even separately, or using the facilities.

That should help him focus his mind in world cup year. Then we sell him for £120m in January anyway.

Barcelona trying absolutely everything they can to get one over the line.

Apart from putting money on the table.

Reminds me of the Tevez/Mancini drama. Not quite there yet but just one of the possible paths.

Of course, 90% of whats in the media is rubbish and part of the Spanish press campaign to get him to move.
