Yeah i read about the Puyol/Fabregas swap and i can say with about 99.99% certainty that it won't happen. I don't see why Barca needs Fabregas anyway, when they already have Xavi...Unless if he's leaving.

Lorik Cana is the DM I want, bad man he is

I'd love to see Arsenal get Yaya to fill the hole Flamini has left. I don't have Setanta so I havn't seen Cana play, but i've heard about him.

I think Chelsea will accept pretty much any bid for him at this stage and he'll probably go for less than 10 million. It's amazing how bad he has been since joining the team and the only saving grace if they get rid of him is they won't have to pay him 130,000 euro/week or whatever rediculous wage packet he was on. I highly doubt that Shevchenko and Drogba will want to play at the same club and both have been linked to Milan so it'll be interesting to see where they end up.

Because hes a beast, and hes 20. Hes also versatile and used to playing in a 4-3-3. Also, to stop other big clubs from getting him.

No to the big transfer price - Barca have previously said that they'll never pay for him. He ran out on the club (in their eyes) when he moved to Arsenal and they didn't get a fee for him.

Imagine if you had the level of CM talent you have on the wings

Pennant level when compared to a CM is like waht midtable at best

Babel can become great thou

Right wing has been a problem for a lllllong time. Babel will be good at LM, but I think long term he'll eventually become a striker. But I totally agree with the general point - to be honest, if *all* of the other positions were as strong as CM, we'd be a fantastic team.

That was the single biggest mistake they made. Took them years to get over it.

Milan will only take him on a free. They've been saying this for months.

Easily the worst signing of all time, to flop that badly and cost so much is just astonishing. Nobody really saw that coming, he has been terrible.

Shevchenko was a legend in Milan and he was playing like one of the best strikers in the world. Then he chose money and left to Chelsea and lost everything now. I heard that Milan has a bunch of players that dont want him back.

Always takes comments like that with a grain of salt and anything could happen within the next 8-9 years. Who knows if Barca will even have the same owners by that time.

Diarra to Arsenal - Maybe, but 30 million is absurdly high for him

Robinho to Arsenal - Not happening.

Wouldn't suprise me, Schevchenko is a backwards step from Pato.
