I checked skybet yesterday and we was 6/1 along with chelsea.
bluesyob said:the one reason i dont think this will ever happen is the fact that he was interviewed at the time we tried to sign kaka and he slated us stating that money cant buy history. but i may be wrong and i hope i am
in the same way you say its like the kaka deal i cant see it happeningBigga said:Right. I didn't WANT to come on this thread as I've posted what I posted the other day. Nothing is absolute and as far I know, this is in the 'process'.
Now, the problem is that this is very much in the Kaka region of speculation, as of now. Will he sign? I think he would. Would his club sell him? Now that is the real question.
It has all the hallmarks of the AC Milan saga where the info got into the public domain before it should have. Now come the denials and 'hands off' warnings. So, we're left with exactly the same position as with Kaka.
We all KNOW the club need the money to rebuild the team and ease the wolfs at the door. Like AC did.
We all KNOW that their fans would, quite possibly, protest by not renewing season tickets. Similar threats to AC.
So they may just follow the AC line and 'cut off their nose to spite their face'.
It's a tough call to make for that club.

yeah but until we can offer chumps league football he wont come no matter how much money we offer him all football players are sportsmen and they want to play in champions league cos its the ultimate to them its as simple as that as far as im concernedBigga said:bluesyob said:in the same way you say its like the kaka deal i cant see it happening
Having said that, Taggart said the same about Tranny. But he's like the Pied Piper to the Scum fans.
Rafa is not.

If we sign him and a tweak here and there in other positions then we will be title contenders. I am sure that Torres recognises this. It will be one season, tops. Its not the be all and end all and its not like Liverpool would be in a position to win the champs league or the prem (if by some miracle they qualify).
