Apparently, Alexis Sanchez is on the verge of signing for Barcelona. His agents have been in Barcelona for two days and a deal is close to being reached for 27 ME + Thiago/Jeffren.

I have a hard time believing they would trade Thiago tbh. Usually when clubs trade someone it is because they aren't of any use for the club (like Jeffren, to some degree). However, Thiago is one of the best young players they have, and he is homegrown.

But if Udinesi wants Thiago then Barca will let him go. Anyways he is way too much overrated. Not saying he is not good enough, but he is way way overrated..

Noooo,please Barca don't make talent become trash(again)
The List:
Affelay
Hleb
Villa(not so bad)
Masche(okay not so but at least just become rotation)
Adriano
and many more i think,just use your own developed player,huh?

Oh really? Because you have been watching every Barca and Barca B game?

Do you watch every B game to say he isn't? Think of it..

Never said he is not good player or potentially good player. But Barca supporters think he is some superstar and can replace Xavi, which is way way overrating him. I have watched many games and he is good player but not someone who can replace Xavi.

My sources tell me Roger Johnson was the subject of a bid from Tottenham. £9M. Hoever, it was shut down immediately and they've been quoted £14M to sign him.

That is nuts. £14M for a player freshly relegated and who probably wouldn't start at WHL anyway. If they agree to pay it, they're completely bonkers.

You're making the claim. That's like telling me to prove ghosts DON'T exist.

What exactly you wanted to say with the first quote? If you think he is not overrated you could have told that. Simple instead of asking whether i watch Games or not..

I'm saying that if you don't watch the games there is no way in **** you can know if he's overrated or not. And even if that was not what I was saying (which it is), does EVERY reply have to have 100% relevance? Does your reply have 100% relevance?

now im serious,stop this(this is serious)
Thiago is normal,not great,not poor
is Higuain only priced 15 mill ?and Tevez really want to get out from City?

Ok then let me clear this for you. I have said Thiago is a good young player. And even said the reason why i said he is overrated. Barca supporters think he can replace Xavi, which IMO is overrating his ability or potential. I have seen Barca supporters saying they dont want Fabregas as they have Thiago who is as good as Fabregas and go on to become even better player than Fabregas.

Good player? Yes
Overrated? Yes.

Hope this settles it..

Where's that from mate? No idea about the last three, but a bid has gone in for Henderson and been knocked back. We're supposedly going to/have already, upped our offer and sent that too. A bid has also gone in for Wickham.

Hm, I can't even find it now, aha. But it was from a guy who knows his stuff, otherwise I wouldn't follow him on Twitter. Either a Merseyside journo or Itk.

Barcelona has personal 5-year deals with Cesc (24), Rossi (24) and Alexis Sanchez (22), and will now start negotiating with their clubs [md]

= Tapping up. No bullshit about the media etc. - that is THE definition, but of course UEFA won't investigate it.
