Romeu and Cedric to Barca?

Anyone know how shit the Express’s success rate for transfer rumours is?

My guess is pretty shit…

I dunno Romeu is good but he’s not Barca good. And Cedric is definitely not in the Barca league, yet.

I think the paper is just putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 6.

So far i have heard the two you mention plus Cedric going to man city along with Bertrand and VVD(Virgil will be touted to every club richer than us by the press), Forster to Everton and Gabbiadini is being mentioned already. Two more good games for Redmond and he’ll be all over the back pages apparently going as well. Tadic on this form will soon be leaving, then decent displays from Boufal, JWP and Sims will see them banded about as must buys.

Oh and Long, Davis and Rodriguez will be pissed off for some reason and want to leave. It’s always the same with the press. We are seen as not big enough, but of course they are just scared what will happen when we keep a group of players together and show up their beloved money teams.

Yeah, I really couldn’t believe that Gabbiadini to Liverpool rumours were surfacing after 3 games.

We paid £14m for him on a 4.5 year contract, it would cost Liverpool megabucks to prize him away from us.

Whatever money we get in should be spent on Kevin Friend and the twat with the flag at Wembley.

Pair them together and we could take on the world.

Football is a results business and form is everything.

So going on the bullshit they spout, Gabbiadini with 10 in his last seven games(scored in all of them) is worth somewhere upwards of £150m. Let’s see Liverpool bid for him now.

I could actually see cedric going but Romeu isn’t anywhere near the standard they’d want.

I’m still not convinced Cedric is good enough for Saints, let alone Barcelona.

Said in the summer I’d be keen for a replacement, haven’t seen much this season to sway me otherwise.

You must have a v.high opinion of what it takes to play right back for SFC. I will place Cuco Martina, Paul ‘Telf’ Telfer, Murty, Butterfield, fkn what’s his name, Hajto? Fkn Jermaine Wright, All into Evidence. Who’ve you got? Clyne?

Fair play to Sir Les Reed. He has taken us from being a feeder club to Liverpool to potentially being a feeder club to Barca! Awesome work by the follically challenged supremo.

Team finishing in the top half of the Prem 3 seasons running in having better players than Champ or L1 teams shocker.

I’m surprised by this. Cedric is a nice little fella.

I’ve no reason to doubt this.

My issue is he is a defender whose defending I question.

Hmm…I’d suggest your issue is you don’t know a decent (and improving) footballer when you see one.

Romeu is a good player but he’s not got the ability to pass the ball first-time at the speed at which Barca would want. If they wanted a muscle in their midfield they’d have signed the likes of Xhaka a while ago or come in for Wanyama back in the summer.

I like Cedric but I don’t think he’s Barca standard.

Van Dijk is the one player we have who I think could play for Barca and he’s going to be leaving at the end of the season anyway.
