Madrid didn't increase Barca's price for neymar at all, he was only wanting to go to barca and wasn't going to accept any other offers. Barca got neymar on the cheap to what they're going to end up getting out of him, commercially and playing wise

What do you mean by cheap? Is 57m for a player whose contract expires in one year cheap? LOL. And it is Barca not Real Madrid, a players gets all the image rights etc. So there is no substantial lucrative commercial gain for the club.

Imagine the followers Dzeko has attracted to City; shirt sales etc.

Now multiply that by, what's a fair number?

A hundred million?

Neymar's face is everywhere in Brazil, literally.

Shirts, plus being able to use the player in club related ads etc. I know neymar owns his own rights but he'll end up paying for himself and yes compared to what Madrid were willing to pay that is cheap even though the total fee outlay is disputed

Neymar will make Barcelona millions upon millions, he is one of the most profitable and marketable players in the world and he's only 21.

Isco (Part 8 (weekend saga part 3))

Is Isco a hypocrite? (like 98.7% of Homo Sapiens)

Isco: I would say I’m a bit of an antimadridista


An interview from 2009 resurfaces, ahead of Isco’s move to Real Madrid.

Valencia based sports paper Super Deporte have today republished excerpts from an article they published back in 2009, when they interviewed a then seventeen year-old Isco, who was on the path to breaking into the first-team at Valencia.

Asked if Real Madrid was a club he admired, Isco responded: “I haven’t liked Madrid since I was small. The truth is, I would say I’m a bit of an antimadridista. One never knows where his future lies, but it’s a team I’ve never liked.”

Now on the verge of completing a reported €30 million move to Real Madrid from Málaga, Isco also revealed why he wasn’t particularly a fan of the club, during the 2009 interview.

“I get the impression that Real Madrid are an arrogant club, likewise the players and you don’t get anywhere without humility.”

Interesting thoughts from a youngster who perhaps had no idea where his destiny would lie, just four years into the future.

I love coincidences. Except if the copy and paste on my phone didn't fuck up I would've posted first :P

Knowing BM though, someone probably already posted that the exact second it was released.

“I really believe if you are a player who thinks only about money then you could end up at Manchester City,”

“You have to think if you want to play for a big club and have your image or if you want to play for a good club and earn big money. When you ask someone to move for something like £300,000 a week it is just crazy.”

Doesn't he play for us now?

It's different.

Isco's quote is derisive and just overall different in nature to Gaël's.

What Clichy said isn't even bad...we where shite when he said it, lets face it, and were paying preposterous wages and fees. We didn't have the worldwide credibility we have now and are building upon daily.

Whereas Isco was a youth team teenager when he badmouthed, for lack of a better word, one of if not the biggest teams in the world.

I'm sure he wasn't really thinking ahead at the time.

And no, it's not different. Both players criticized a club, one plays for the club they criticized and the other is on the verge of playing for the other.

Semantics don't come into it. Those quotes from Isco are irrelevant now
 
Re: Isco (Part 8 (weekend saga part 3))

Semantics don't come into it, yet your argument is based on it...

Where did Clichy criticize City because I just don't see it..........
 
Re: Isco (Part 8 (weekend saga part 3))

Clichy criticised the club at a time when we were nowhere near the quality we are today and were comments that just became expected by a lot of players and fans at the time.

Isco criticised the Madrid fans - the Madridistas.

That will go down well.
 
Re: Isco (Part 8 (weekend saga part 3))

So, is there any significant development to this saga, or it is still running based on our Intuition and some ITK information? Is there any concret evidence to support our hope?

The part where he quite openly implies players would sign for us solely for money, which be that the case, I'm sure you weren't too happy when he said it were you?

I'm sure Madrid and their fans won't give the tiniest of fucks about what Isco said how many years ago if he signs for them.

Much like how nobody cares about what Gael said now.

I doubt he [Isco] even remembers it
