2014 Summer Transfer Window: Rumors, Completed Deals, Pipedreams!

Not trying to be a complete dick, but I find it hard to debate Falcao's ability if he's healthy. Just last year he was arguably the best 9 in the world. 

 

Falcao is in his prime and amazing when healthy.  He got 3-4 good years left in him.

[Ken]

Unlike Torres, Falcao doesn't really depend on speed and quickness to be devastating.

Even if he losses a bit of that he'll still be really good. His strength has always been his awesome aerial ability, dead eye finishing, runs in behind and long range shooting.

As long as he can still jump as high and he hasn't lost his instincts, he should be fine.

Morata to Juve is back on and should be done soon.

Khedira agent is trolling... When asked about Khedira he said he did not speak to Arsenal or Chelsea regarding potential move and he's not aware of any interest.  Marca reported that Arsenal and Madrid already agreed on a fee.  Sky News, Marca, Fox Sport all reporting that deal is close.  Such a mess and misleading information.  I have no clue what's really going on.

Apparently we've agreed to a deal with Swansea for Ben Davies, which Liverpool is thinking of upping:

Yea, I think we are planning on matching it and hoping he chooses us. To be quite honest, he's not one I'd be too upset missing out on, even though I think he's quality.

Same, this is more just so I have something to talk about other than "nothing to see here.. move along, move along..."

- United giving up on Vidal and Di Maria (assuming he's not being sold), upping bid for Vermaelen and now seriously exploring Hummels...

Shoot me.

News in Italy is that Napoli are close to Xabi Alonso.

We're losing both Khedira AND Xabi? In one summer????? Sorry, not happening. Who the hell is gonna play defense?

 

Alonso's agent insists he is staying.

Pretty sure the plan is for Kroos and Modric to form a double pivot, with Illara as a back up.

[Ken]

Kroos already played as a double pivot for Bayern. Don't see why he can't do it in Real.

 

And I take anything any agent says with a grain of salt.
