Xabi alonso staying?

[Refused as fuck]

It's the League Cup match we lost 2-1 and there were 30,000 there. There were 3 Spurs fans. Three.

I like how we're so tiny a club that every football thread is about Newcastle within the first 2 posts.

[Rollem]

Bringing the thread back to on topic I felt I should share a very insightful post from RAWK on the subject of Madrid feeling Alonso is over-priced:

I'm fucking sick of all this "Rafa only wanted £16 million for him last year so it's unrealistic to want double that this year." Well hang on a minute, Wigan paid £3.5 million for Valencia 18 months ago and sold him for £18 million last month. Then, 12 months ago, they paid £3.5 million for Lee Cattermole and this year they're turning down bids for THREE TIMES that amount! I'll let that sink in. Lee fucking Cattermole!!

So what's wrong with Rafa's expectations rising massively in 12 months? When I was 14, I'd happily settle for a big Frenchy and a sly feel of knockers off a girl. By the time I was 15 this had increased dramatically to a good fingering, tuning inthe radio on her raspberries and a quick wank off a girl. By 16, if I went out with a girl, the minimum expectation was a shag and/or a blow job by the second date. By 19 my minimum expectations with a girl were were regular sex on tap, blow jobs and 10 minutes up the wrong'n every now and then. Rafa is no different than we all were when we were kids, wanting more and more as the years pass!
Made me giggle

Heh.

A certain purple nosed prick tried to sign Xabi Alonso for £22m about a year before Rafa signed him.

That is a FACT.

[Rollem]

arbeloa's going too...

what with mascherano wanting out, will you have any half decent players left?

 

[revol68]

Apparently he's handed in a transfer request, that's a major lose to Liverpool's title bid if he goes.

Can't blame him, the fat waiter spent last summer trying to get shot of him.....Benitez is great

Not arsed about Arbeloa going, I thought he was a liability at times. Against Arsenal (home) last season, he was shite.

Good player and did well for us, a profit made.
