Sergio Aguero didn't turn up for training at Atletico Madrid today.. things look set to turn nasty.

Graeme Bailey seems to think this deal will be done on Tuesday though.
Also,
Pastore very much now a saga, Zamparini has stated that PSG are set for talks along with Chelsea and Real Madrid could also make a move #cfc

I will most likely leave Newcastle at end of season, when my contract expires and I am no longer employed. Its out of my hands #iwanttostay?

lol.
It's not healthy, Joss.
Excuse me?
Barcelona need a LB but they are buying mids and strikers.
Sanchez should've moved to Atletico Madrid.
Tevez to Some random argentina team
Aguero to Man City
And then it should have been Sanchez to Atletico.
It. Would've. Worked.

Except Abidal is perfectly good at LB for another season at least, no Argentine club can afford Tevez and Sanchez only wanted to go to Barcelona..
Why do they need a LB? Abidal is class and totally underrated...
Yeah apparently they want to go 3-4-3, but it'll be Pique - Busquets - Puyol with Alves moving into midfield.. But that's just a rumour.
Either way, they can't afford him hence Corinthians pulling out (and the fact it was all a PR stunt to entice other clubs to bid).
It's not his flowchart, y'know. He hasn't got THAT obsessive.

Abidal will be moving into the centre, leaving only Maxwell (****) and Adriano (average and inconsistent) as LBs.
Hmmm. One of the strengths of Alves' game is that he can build up speed running from deep, and the opposition find it harder to track such an athletic full-back. He never did particularly well as a midfielder for Barca or Brazil. Seems like a bit of a gamble...
I agree personally, but they won't drop him and if Guardiola is going to 3-4-3 that is the only way to fit him in. I mentioned this on another thread, but I see them lining up like this;
Valdes
Pique - Busquets - Puyol
Xavi
Alves ------------- Iniesta
Sanchez
Pedro - Messi - Villa

Alves ------------- Iniesta

Hilarious stuff.

When did that stop anyone from having a lil laugh at someone else's expense?
If they got him, he'd take Sanchez's place, with Sanchez moving into Pedro's winger-come-striker position.
And then Pedro?
Dropped to the bench, I'd assume. Somehow doubt they'll get Fabregas this year though.
