Gravensen to real madrid....why?


and shen what do you mean by free?


you mentioned how much are the contracts but how long are they?

 

Expiring / Expired contracts = free transfer.

And why Gravensen to Real? They need a "central big headed tough and hurtful to meet" type of midfielder. They sold Makelele to Chelski two seasons ago, and Cambiasso signed for Inter before the season started. Gravensen was doring marvelous during the season (Everton on fourth place on the table! Chance for Champions League!), so I understand Real's capture of Gravensen.


Update: Abel Xavier - AS Roma

 

Quite true, Gravesen may not look it but he is a strong fella with decent pace. His freekicks are deadly... sort of like Roberto Carlos's but skipping all that long build up to hit it, and is on target much more often

Update: Walter Pandiani joins Birmingham City on a load deal from Deportivo

- Shen

 

Graveson didnt do nothing when Everton played a Mex Team last year.

Sorry that I dont know about any euro transfers I most concentrate on the mexican league. Cruz Azul I believe made the biggest arrangements by getting 2 mexican nationals Francisco Fonseca and Salvador Carmona. Fonseca already leads the league in goals. Two questions....I know the Mex league isnt popular but did anyone see that hit on vicente sanchez last week? He fell on the ground knocked out and it then looked like he started to have a seizure...they took him to the hospital and it appears he is fine. AND TOLUCA STILL WON! Cardozo baby!!

Anyone see last weeks match Mexico vs. Sweden....We totally dominated that game...just wasnt able to give finishing blow...

 

Bah! Remember that Sweden played with a B-squad too

- Teddz

 

And Mexico didnt have thier full squad either...

Where was Oswaldo Sanchez? Where was Rafa Marquez? Where was Omar Bravo or Bautista? Altamirano or Arellano? We might be getting back Blanco too...


Regardless of who was there or wasnt it was still a good game and its actually been a long time since Ive seen Mexico play against a European team. I think Mexico vs Croatia was the last one....

 

Well, there's a slight difference between the Mexican League and the Swedish "Allsvenskan"

Rumours are spreading yet again!

Ashely Cole of Arsenal to Chelski ? The chances of Chelski losing important league points? Only the men behind Arsenal and Chelski knows...

The battle for the Premier League flies on...

- Teddz

 

And what difference is that?

 

Well, Chelski had a ten - twelve point lead, and if they did commit that scandal, we are talking about a fifteen point regulation, or so. It would change the title competition...

- Teddz

 

I dont understand why anyone would do this? A scandal...in the beautiful world of futbol. But then again...it was only a matter of time. ~sighs~ I heard this referee of the german bundesliga got arrested...it really just pisses me off.

 

Yeah, he judged the games for his own "lottery".

Anyhow, Inter won over A.C. Roma with 2 freekicks goals by Mihaljovic. The man still knows how to play ball

- Teddz

 

I never knew the difference between FC AS AC....all those sadly i still do not know what they mean. FC I could take a good guess that it means football club. But what are the others?

 

AC = Athletic Club

Should be something like that.

- Teddz

 

Darn it! If only there were alot of transfers happening in the Mexican League I would be posting them down...but no big ones what so ever. Or small ones actually. And I havent heard anything about the MLS which is suprising since I live in the US.
