Andros Townsend => Crystal Palace
Gregory van der Wiel => Fenerbahce
Eder => Lille
Kamil Glik => Monaco
Higuain => Arsenal
Graziano Pelle => Shandong Luneng.



 

Is Higuain to Arsenal confirmed?  I don't think Wenger will splash 80M British Pounds that Napoli is asking for.  I think Wenger missed a good opportunity at last year's transfer window with Higuain.  Wenger is so tight with the money that he failed to sign him.  Now for 80M Pounds, I doubt he'd be willing to sign him.  That's too much for Higuain and Wenger knows it.

But Arsenal is kinda desperate to sign a striker though...  Cheesy

another transfer rumour for today

- Man Utd will offering £100 millions to buy Pogba from Juventus and this is will be interesting to find out would Juventus sell him with those offers
- looks like Tottenham could not bring Mario Gotze to London because the player will choose Borussia Dortmund if he want to move
- Real Madrid wants Leicester player N'Golo Kante

quality N'golo kante few is pogba, position same is defence midfielder, but value kante is clausa buy out price is low, real madird and machester united same interest pogba, but pogba prives over value high price

A resounding YES!  My friend and I were just talking about this.  Why isn't Man United even taking interest in Kante?  Didn't Sir Alex Ferguson said he was the best midfield player of the 2015/16 season?  I was expecting them to make a bid when the transfer window opened.  But so far nothing.

Edit:  But it looks like Chelsea are formalizing their interest on Kante.

Chelsea move quickly to formalise interest in N’Golo Kante amid interest from Shanghai SIPG

Source

And please, do not let him go to China.  That would suck for him as a player.  I'm sure some Chinese EPL fans would also agree.

Yet another silly move from chelsea. They are destroying talent the moment they sign him. They should just either use him in their squad or let the other team has him, there is no point in being greedy and chelsea is being greedy by signing kante and sending him into one of the team in china league
Why it will be silly move from Chelsea?  Signing Kante is absolutely perfect choice ever. This could strengthen Chelsea defensive set up.
Leicester did have received £35M from Shanghai SIPG but i think Kante is smart enough to reject that and move in Stamford Bridge.

You are not reading the news it seems. Try to read it before you decided to jump into this conversation, oh wait perhaps you dont really have the ability to read that link (?). I'll break it down for you, chelsea is going to sign kante from leicester city and going to send kante to play in shanghai SIPG as a loan

I don't think he article mentioned anything of that sort.  Unless I missed something.

the UFC sold their business for 4 billion dollars today!

I wonder what changes will be taking place

they better hope they keep dana white on in some sort of
capacity. That dude is the face of MMA / UFC and maybe he
starts another league?  Probably a non compete clause in the
contract but after the 5 years or whatever they better lock him
up in a contract or he may pull a professional wrestling and start
another league to compete with his old brand


There's a possibility this could happen if they don't get Dana's trust and confidence.  There are rumors swirling that Joe Rogan wants out of the UFC if the Fertitta brothers are out.  Imagine Dana + Rogan building their own brand with the support of the Fertitta brothers.  They could create a successful brand by gradually signing the young and upcoming fighters from the UFC.  Time will be on their side.

frankly I'm very sad about how  became the formula 1. It's not a real race, all strategy and if there's some rain the start is ridicolous whit the safety car. It has become a parade of cars

I think the no team radio rule should be enforced and get the driver back to being drivers would be excellent for the sport.  But for the safety car when the track isn't safe for racing, I like it.  The drivers' safety should be a must in all races.

Can you give me the link about this big news?  Shocked I can't believe it was Sold. The money is ridiculous, but the potential money in the future is even more ridiculous. I'm really wondering too what will change now.

Update: WME-IMG Buys UFC for $4 Billion in Richest Sports Franchise Deal Ever

They could take it to the next level granting that they support Dana White as President of the UFC.  It's Dana White that got the UFC to this level, and I'm sure he could take it to the next.

I made some money with the Anderson Silva vs Daniel Cormier fight. I gave Daniel Cormier a win. He is such a talent, I knew he was going to win against Anderson Silva, not so sure about Jon Bones Jones tho. I think Daniel Cormier is the only guy that has a real chance at stopping Jones, but now that the idiot has tested positive again, im afraid he has ruined his career.

Haven't saw the fight but surprise spider was lost again. Must be really due to his legs. The guys should really retire for what had happen.

was actually thinking Jones did it purposely so he can escape the shame of being beaten. anyway, Congrats to DC.

I would've loved to see more of a stand up fight but Daniel Cormier took the safer approach. Silva looked pretty good in those short moments they were standing and he looked excellent fighting off his back too. IMO, Silva can manage to defeat DC if he avoided the takedowns. Btw, Huge props to Silva for taking this fight on like 3 days notice Shocked

And that kick to the liver hurt Cormier.  Did you see his face when Silva threw the kick?  If Silva had trained for this fight it would have been more entertaining.

I read quotes direct from Pogba's agent today that he may sign a new contract at Juventus. Would be funny if they were just using Man Utd & Real Madrid to get a massive new deal at Juventus.


Mino Raiola, Pogba’s agent, has added to United concerns that the midfielder may be staying put.

“There is a lot of talk about Paul’s future, but maybe he will not leave Juventus,” Raiola told The Times.

He is in no rush to leave, and Juventus do not want him to go. They want him to renew his contract''

Paul is not desperate to move. We are very happy at Juventus and they are a club that want to keep their star players.”



Haha.  Yeah, just like what Neymar('s dad) did with Barca.  It's all about the money in football now.  It's really sad to see.
11951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: July 11, 2016, 01:23:12 PM
Giggs needed to be removed, he's been hanging around there with Moyes & then with LVG adding absolutely nothing. Mourinho probably refused to have Giggs as part of his backroom staff.

Just because you're a great player doesn't mean you have the tools to be a great coach.

Yeah and the worst thing for Giggs is Mourinho wants Rio Ferdinand to be in his inner circle backroom staff.  So he really had to leave because he's not going to be a part of anything.

Maybe Ronaldo could be a decent manager given the chance.  Watching the Euro 2016 finals there was a comment about him about being a manager one day when he was trying to boost morale among his team mates.  I thought yeah, maybe he can be.  And maybe that's what he meant when he said one day he'll return to Man United.

I have to be honest.  I don't really know these fighters and I would have to watch videos of them to make bets on this card.  But I hope some of you do, and would enlighten everyone on these match ups.
11953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting on sport = gambling? on: July 11, 2016, 11:09:56 AM
Anything where is money been placed in shape of getting more back or loosing that is gambling. Sports betting is not safe and has equal risks as gambling in other things. Most recent example can be seen in yesterday's euro soccer match where many people lost money on France inclusive me. If this was not gambling then what is should be considered. I make no difference between both.

You have it all wrong.  To play properly you should not avoid risk but to manage it.  By doing that you should know what you're doing and have the right amount of bankroll to go through all the variance of sports betting.  If you got it all right you're winning line will trend up gradually.

Firstly if this is the same tokeweed and the account has not been sold then i would probably trust you ti escrow a deal from me but i have to ask, why on earth would you want to be an escrow provider for?
They get fuck all on each deal and always have the stress of keeping the coins safe in between deals. As far as i can see its not worth it.
Even if you can keep the coins safe something can always go wrong and you often have to be the mediator.

Trust me mate, not worth the hassle.

Hahaha!  Yes this is still me.  And yeah, I decided not to do it.  I'm going to interview escrowers as an alternative and include some of their answers in 'Bitcointalk:  A Newbie's Guide to Fun and Profit'.  It's something I've been thinking of writing.

And his coaching style is exposed?  Lol.  If that were true then why did Man United choose him over Giggs?

Giggs needs more time to learn that is for sure and they are not the type that will sack their club legend when he is not doing well as the coach so instead they choose him over giggs. Sooner or later when giggs is ready, giggs will get the throne no matter what achievement mourinho gave to manchester united

I agree with you, giggs is not ready, even he is the veteran player on manchester united. I rather pick mourinho than giggs, i think mourinho will do better on manchester united.

giggs has no experience in big teams
i took him rather to coach some championship team to gain some experience


Giggs and mourinho would never get on it was obvious giggs was out the door, also watch for mata to never get a game and rooney to leave end of the season.

Mata is gonna be sold before the transfer window closes.  As for Rooney, I don't know, if he gets back to form he might like being at Mourinho's system.  He pointed out that Rooney will play as a "No. 10, No. 9 or a 9 and 1/2" under him.  That's where Rooney is strongest.  I wonder why LVG thought it would be a good idea to play him deep.

Exactly.  That's why not any manager can bring Man United to the top 4.  I don't know why the other guy thinks so.

It's true the rumours? Mario Gotze's father has met twice with Tottenham's bosses during the Euros to talk about a transfer this summer.

There are talks on going yes.  But I don't think he's going to Tottenham with the wages he's asking for.  The most likely scenario for him is to go back to BVB.

There are news that Real Madrid has given up pursuing on Pogba so it's making it likely that he's going to United.

I'm surprised it's listed at Poloniex.  Surely with their new found status as the 'go to exchange for altcoins' they should start cleaning up their listed coins.

Klopp has a big transfer window and summer training camp for the first time with Liverpool. He can build a better squad than previous year. I consider them one of the favorites alongside Arsenal and Manchester City. Leicester City has no chance this year. Manchester United will fail with Mourinho. Chelsea is not good enough to win the league.

I disagree.  Mourinho will bring Man United back to top 4 contender status.  Although winning the league is the primary goal, being back to top 4 is good enough for his first year.  I think Arsenal will be the one struggling to get to top 4 with Chelsea, Tottenham and Liverpool going for it too besides the two Manchester clubs.  Everton is no slouch too, I hope they get good acquisitions.

They can easily be Top 4 with any coach. Arsenal - City - Liverpool - Chelsea only one team struggle and you are in Top 4. Tottenham and Leicester won't play like previous season. I don't like Mourinho and I don't finf him successful last years. His coaching style exposed and teams know how to stop them.

No they won't.  Not with Pochettino, Klopp, Conte, Wenger and Pep in the league.  Look what happened to them under Moyes and LVG.  Top 4 wasn't assured under them.  And it's still a struggle under a better manager like Mourinho.

And his coaching style is exposed?  Lol.  If that were true then why did Man United choose him over Giggs?
