well holy shit. i told my friend to piss off when he said goal.com was claiming we got Melo.
sweet baby jesus if this son of a bitch signs for us we will be insane this season. What a gift for Ciro too by the way: Diego, Melo, Canna and ?? Man what a midfield, we wont need to sub them as young as they are
I already have a headache trying to guess what the lineups will look like each game with the crazy depth we have for midfield. Lets sell Poulsen/Zanetti or Tiago/Zanetti and keep one of the 3 and use that money for defense. Start incorporating Ekdal into the team, I'd say we have a pretty strong enough midfield that would support a youngster coming in every not and then.
Secco definitely blind sided us today if this is true. Honestly, where the hell did all this money come from? I now Alen, Mark or JCK said who cares where it came from if we had it...I am just curious, I wonder if the Elkans wrote a nice check to help us.
Guys, this year is going to be really exciting. I hope Melo is a done deal and mega props to Secco for wrapping this up in very little time. Great move if it is true as he didn't give any clubs a chance to react.
