I doubt Cesc goes to United, but Balague has been off recently.

He hedges his predictions or bets a lot, most recently denying Rafa to Napoli almost immediately before it was announced.

He always had the biggest connections with Rafa. Always. And for him to miss out on something like that worries me (because I love him).

I didn't see this but god I hope he's wrong.

iirc correctly (I know it's only been a week, but bar prep...haha) he merely said that napoli's owner had overstated how close rafa was to joining napoli. which is pretty much the same thing he did in the Chelsea situation. it looks bad to say a deal isn't done yet when it happens shortly thereafter (and probably indicates rafa was using his pal as leverage) but it doesn't make the info wrong. he definitely hedges his bets on most things, which I don't mind because things change so quickly in the world of football. all I'm saying is when he staunchly predicts something will/won't happen, he seems to be right more than not. particularly wrt barça.
