  1. So what?

    This is a discussion board for football fans, one where posters are encouraged to have opinions.

    If you are too afraid to hold an opinion on a subject, you really would do yourself a massive favour and leave Not606 and get into something less stressful, like Lego. I hear that you can get generous discounts at Legoland, at the moment.

    It's something worth considering, PESKIE.

    Rubbish, but you can believe it if you want.
    Lets just use this summer shall we? Here are a list of players bought or sold by Real Madrid while no manager was in place:
    Jose Maria Callejon
    Isco
    Daniel Carvajal
    Asier Illarramendi
    Casemiro

    Nothing wrong with Lego <ok> Also you tried to call the 'too afraid' to make predictions card on me last time, and I pointed you to my predictions for the top 6 last season, all correct, all in the right order :)

    I think that was just before you went into hiding <laugh>

    Spurs were in negotiations for Vertonghen several weeks before Villas-Boas arrived
    Spurs were in negotiations with Sigurdsson the week before Villas-Boas arrived
    Spurs sold Corluka and Kranjcar several weeks before Villas-Boas arrived
    Fernandinho and Jesus Navas joined Man City days before Pellegrini did
    Vieira and Garde signed for Arsenal over a month before Wenger arrived

    I don't have time to check all your "facts", but if you do a quick search for Isco you will see he confirmed negotiations with Real on the 17th, which means that they at least started the process before Ancelloti was in charge.
    Over and out

    Laziness is no excuse - The facts are there if you get of your arse and check.

    With regard to Isco, we started the process with Higuain before Ancelotti was in charge, nothing wrong with speaking to representatives from the club, but it was widely reported that no transfer could take place until their manager was in place. As was the case with all of the examples that were quoted above <ok>

    You know what, either way it doesn't matter. You said Wenger didn't dither yet you also said he started negotiations before Ancelloti came in. Ancelloti came in nearly a month ago and the deal isn't done. Dithering.

    That's not dithering. That's Madrid changing the goal posts at the 11th hour. Apparently we had agreed terms with Higuain only for Real to then up the asking price. No matter how much you want to shoehorn this 'dithering' stance in, it just isn't working <ok>

    I have a job too, so the patronising stance is wasted on me <ok> However, if you bothered to check, you'd discover it's not BS and is in fact accurate dates for those transfers.

    If you bothered to read my original post on this subject you will see i said that. But there was dithering, whether it was Wenger or not i don't know. Real changed the goalposts in the last few days, you've still had a month to do the business and didn't. Swallow it up and move on.

    and if you bothered to check the others you'd discover that they either already had options to buy from Madrid or were bought or sold well after Ancelotti joined.

    Spurm, it was obvious what you were calling Piskie. By all means disagree but lets keep it civil :)

    As you were...

    What does Madrid having the option to buy have to do with anything? They've got that on about a million bloody players. Someone's still got to agree the details, barring the fee.

    As I already pointed out - Isco joined Real after Ancelotti was appointed
