Tell you what, I'll stop being such an irritating so-and-so if you can get "Forlone" Hope to change his name to Forlorn Hope which is how it's actually spelt.
Money talks & if it means the money they get more than pays for Fabregas, why not? Barca aren't exactly rolling in dosh at this moment in time...
Pretty sure they are. Even when they aren't, they just get their sycophantic Catalan banks to help them out. Same goes for Real Madrid.
I think they are currently carrying something like £200m of debt and they will have to sort it sooner than later. So, I'll predict a little triangle. Iniesta to City, Barry to Spurs and Fabregas to Barca. Whatever happens, this Summers transfer market looks like being one of the most interesting and active for many a season.
