Fabregas played well for Barça prior to Neymar's arrival as either a false nine or in a more traditional midfielder role. Now, with Alexis and Pedro relegated to the bench and Iniesta always being the better player, there's really no place for Fabregas.

i don't mean fab is bad, but yeah with iniesta and xavi, fab doesn't have many options to start without injury

he was a centerpiece for arsenal, too

Also on the Barça payroll that might actually stay.




Because, keep getting them checks Alex.


Barcelona spent 25 million for a defensive midfielder who doesn't like to defend.

If Fab leaves they won't have a Xavi replacement, especially with Thiago gone. I seriously doubt he leaves. Barca would be silly to jettison Pedro or Fab. Absolutely silly.

Not sure why, if your Juventus you make this move? Depth?

Juve's seemingly changing to a 4-3-3 next year so they will be looking for wingers.

Roma were interested in Nani last summer before Rudi Garcia came in and preferred Gervinho.

I agree that Nani should do pretty well in Serie A.

you can go to sofifa.com and search a player and see their potential growth, though I kind of feel bad about doing it

I'd like to see Pedro and Alexis Sanchez move as well, I like em both and would rather see them go somewhere where they will play more regularly. Also I'd like to see more teams be competitive and not just a couple teams stockpiling talent, to an extent.

£5million


I think this would be a steal for Nani. He's a guy I've always liked despite a large percentage of the United fan base never coming around on him. He never fully realized his potential at United. But, for some reason, I still think he could do well for The Old Lady (if the move actually happens).

Dzeko is a fantastic #9. He gets rated poorly by some pundits because he's slow and doesn't really score spectacular goals.


He just never quite put it together under Mancini. I'm not sure I can say he was even given a fair shake. Totally different with Pellers though. He's REALLY stepped up this year when Aguero went down, Jovetic was hobbled, and Negredo hit the wall.

despite all of his goals, i have a very hard time liking him. i think its just his incompetency when dribbling. or passing. or collecting the ball. or shooting. he's just an oaf.

what did i say that was worthy of a " "?

i won't ever deny that he is an incredibly selfless and massively clutch player. the guy always has a goal in him when one is needed. he seems content in his role on the team and does exactly what he's asked to do.

that said, he's an oaf.
