Dang... Liverpool almost pulls it off in their match and Chelsea goes through in theirs with some last second (literally) magic.

woops, I meant Totti.

Ya I agree I have a pure dislike on the guy but can't discount his talents. Nedved did flop but man you can't take away the amount of class the guy has. I just love the guy

this is why I love being a spurs fan. this is the meaning of team. it's like we'd just scored a world cup final winning goal. incredible to see really. our team loves the manager and vise versa. you can't ask for more really. it's like they're a bunch of peewee players playing for first place. incredible. COYS!

Apparently Lewandowski is not extending his contract with BVB. Lots of rumours flying around which say he'll go to Bayern Munchen on a free/bosman in the summer of 2014.

Bayern don't need another striker.

**fancylad** · 02-28-2013, 09:48 AM

anyone else looking forward to the start of the MLS season this saturday.

I am excited. Hopefully this year they (TFC) don't suck the bag. Frings has retired and they're going with a youth movement. Let's see what the kids are made of.

Also news floating around that Welsh striker robert Earnshaw is with the club getting a tour and should sign. He knows where the back of the net is.

I haven't read this.

And Windex is right, the last thing they need is another striker (Gomez, Mandzukic, Muller etc.)

I can see him going to England. Man City?

I agree that Bayern Munchen don't need another striker but I also thought that Man U didn't have to get both Kagawa and RVP. City maybe - Dzeko might leave in the summer. Chelsea I think will get Falcao or Cavani. Juventus could play the waiting game to get Lewandowski.

pzabby · 02-28-2013, 01:26 PM

can chelsea afford falcao or cavani with FFP coming into play? not a lot of teams have the revenue in the epl to match those two, maybe united could, but they don't need either

**Claudius** · 02-28-2013, 01:39 PM

Cavani will end up in Paris (that's my gut instinct). Falcao, will go to the highest bidder (Russia?).

I thought Juve had a deal in place to sign Llorente this summer.
I think Dortmund will replace Lewandowski with Dzeko. Could see Lewa in Arsenal.
Cavani and Falcao will go to Chelsea or City.

Yeah but Juventus could play another waiting game just in case. Dzeko to BVB is possible. Lewa to Arsenal would be a big step down to be honest and it's not like Arsenal could offer him City or PSG money. I agree with you on Cavani and Falcao to Chelsea or City.

pzabby · 02-28-2013, 08:43 PM

hahahahaha lewa to arsenal? are you serious? he'd go to spurs before he goes there, and neither is happening. hahahahahaha

ha

well they can offer him, they're just too cheap. deep deep pockets and they don't spend it. one reason why I love spurs is every cent goes back into the club. nothing is hoarded. and if anyone says we saved the modric money please take a look at our financial statements first

ha

maybe my hate for le arse has spiked up but that's only cause the NLD is only a couple days away

really?? what rumours?

PSG is going to win ligue 1 and could potentially win champs league. and he's getting paid a boatload of money, weekly. and the team pays his income taxes for him. what else could he possibly want? he's already been to one of the spanish giants..

I read some stuff in the French newspapers. Nothing significant, just saying (and I'm paraphrasing here) that he'll look to move on in about a year's time or so.

In the popular media, I know he mentioned that playing in Munich in the Bundesliga would be appealing to him.

If true, makes sense for a guy like Cavani (with Lavezzi there already) to be targeted. Chelsea have bigger fish to fry, i.e. getting a manager.

Anyways, this is football, rumors are just that, rumors and very rarely do players go to team's you anticipate.
