Isco

Re: Isco (Part 7 (Saturday saga part 2))

None of us knew who Isco was before it was mentioned we were after him.

Still think he's coming anyway, if not, we move on.

We're not a big club yet.

What a load of crap.

Glad you said it

Re: Isco (Part 7 (Saturday saga part 2))

Can't believe some people on here. If we don't get Isco it won't be because we haven't offered enough money. Just because Madrid agree a deal doesn't mean he can't turn them down. If he goes to Madrid it will be because he wanted to - end of. If people start blaming the board or other players we've signed well they need to get a grip. I'll be gutted if he doesn't come (although not as much as my boy who has had him and Cavani signed up on FIFA for the past 6 months) but we'll move on.

If he signs that would be great.

If he doesn't I've always thought he was shite.......

Same with every potential transfer really.

Acid test = have the bookies odds on him signing for City got larger ? That would really indicate if he's agreed to join Madrid?

All over Accoding to Marca.

Done deal to Real for 24mil Euros
http://www.marca.com/2013/06/22/en/football/real_madrid/1371884353.html

Carlo Ancelotti's first signing at Real Madrid will be Isco. Real Madrid will pay €24 million, plus up to €3m more depending on the results and objectives achieved.

'Los Blancos' were optimistic on Friday after negotiations with Málaga to reach a deal for the player. On Saturday, Real Madrid finally reached an agreement with Málaga.

Moayad Shatat - Málaga's executive vice-president - had a meeting with Real Madrid's executive general director, José Ángel Sánchez, in order to negotiate a transfer.

The Andalusian club reduced the player's €35-million buyout clause to reach an agreement, as both parties weighed up different financial incentive options to be included. Isco is 21 years old and if he wins trophies at Real, establishes himself in the Spain squad and reaches a series of appearances milestones for his team and country both clubs could benefit from the deal.

There was also the possibility of other players coming into the equation - Callejón, Jesé and even Morata's names were mentioned. With such a makeweight, the fee would have been reduced to no more than €20 million. However, Real wanted to hang on to these players.

Manchester City was another club hot on the tail of the midfielder and has been waiting for an answer from both club and player. The fact that Manuel Pellegrini managed Isco at Málaga couldn't swing the deal in City's favour. Isco was more interested in signing for Real Madrid.

Re: Isco (Part 7 (Saturday saga part 2))

And you call me a fucking ray of sunshine

What part of my comment comes over depressing, have we not spent a long time going for Cavani and Isco

I was being sarcastic -

I disagree we are two world class players away as long as we don't loose Tevez and or Dzeko if we do then we definately need a striker

We have the team i dont think Isco will have a huge impact on whatever happens next year - the following year and future years maybe.

We need to get the very best out of the players we have and i simply refuse to believe that we need to spend 60 million on Cavani - if Liverpool can find a Suarez and Napoli a Cavani and there are other example then we must have one hell of a shite scouting system if we cant.

We underperformend last season for whatever reason the signing we have made have been excellent

Strangely I agree with you you make a good point that many on here who play to many computer games can't get

Re: Isco (Part 7 (Saturday saga part 2))

The most disappointing thing is, we have obviously made Isco and Cavani our main targets. Although the 2 guys we have brought in will be a good addition we are still 2 world class players short from challenging for the title and doing well in the champs league. It will be interesting to see if our rivals will now swoop for the next best available, whoever they are

good post

what is your take on things at the moment SalfordPaul?

Do we have a forum where I can get some eye candy? My head is spinning now.

Re: Isco (Part 7 (Saturday saga part 2))

We have and would have done on other players.

Just because Cavani and Isco aren't signed doesn't mean we will now be going for Crouch and Dean fucking Whitehead.

You really believe that that Txiki has just sat there for six months sending emails to Napoli and Malaga and playing a bit of Fifa?

After a season of constant complaints about taking our plan B options last summer it's bizarre to see so many comments about how it's fine to take plan B options this year. Marwood loses a target he's an idiot, Txiki loses a target and it's unthinkable to question him.

Nobody is saying plan b is fine but if we have to go for another player we have to accept whoever comes

If we do miss Isco ( I don't believe it's over, we know from the QPR game....93:20 that its not over till its over) the plan b it has to be

Really wouldn't be against Maher or Hernanes. Always thought our biggest push should be for Cavani. I'd still take him over Isco.
