    Thats a hell of a team, the opposition would need to be heavily insured:D

    I hope it's not Kewell! Let him go Rafa, let him go

    EDIT: Is it not Degen, Rafa is talking to? I'd take him

    Maxi and Ulfalusi look to be the best there, a lot of poor players in that list.

    dont think king is available on a free is he?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,397 ✭✭✭yahoo_moe


    Well Flamini's definitely not available on a free.

    Not really for my team, but I think Micoud could still do a good job somewhere, always liked him as a player.

    Kehl is a useful player from what I remember and I still think Zanetti's got a lot of class, even if he's getting on. Klasnic is quite useful too from what I've seen.

    Is Motta definitely available? Didn't he just leave Barca last year? If he could stay fit, I always thought he was half-decent too...

    with Ledley King's contract up wonder is it true about his premature retirement cos otherwise there would surely be talk of a move/a new contract.

    Maxi will def be snapped up by a good team would love him at Villa but very much so doubt it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    Cassano looks like the stand out there for me but if it was Championship manager Bierofka would be gone immediately


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭hunter164


    It's Thiago Motta with Atletico innit?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,346 ✭✭✭✭KdjaCL


    So is the list really old? Cant find the other on wiki.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,372 ✭✭✭✭Mr Alan


    I'd take Crespo, always thought he is ****ing brilliant.

    Doubt he would come back to England, didn't like it much If I remember.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,372 ✭✭✭✭Mr Alan


    true enough. still a ****ing brilliant player though

    maybe send Skrtl and tommy Mascherano around to "convince" him :cool:

    isnt he still a Chelsea player officially?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,894 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    well flamini and nedved should be taken off that list really.

    Why, do they need to keep their medical team busy?

    King is finished.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Is Maxi Rodriguez really available on a freebie? He'd be snapped up fairly quickly, I'd imagine...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Ehhhh that list is crap. Hamann has signed for another year and Kasper has another 2 years to go AFAIK.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,648 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    Kasper schmechial

    Edmilson - Tomas Ujfalusi - Ledley King - Sylvinho

    Maxi Rodriguez - Javier Zanetti - Didier Hamann - Pavel Nedved

    Zoltan Gera

    Hernan Crespo



    BENCH

    Danny Murphy
    Hilario(need a goalie i guess)
    luis jiminez
    Nobby Solano
    Wilfred Bouma
    harry kewell

    i think with that team maybe a few aren't the best choice didn't count flamini cause he's signed up, you could definately make europe, and probably challenge for the italian title anyway if the spanish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    ^^^ Didn't count Flamini but did count Hamann and Schmeichel?

    Nedved just signed a new deal, Flamini has signed for milan and yes Crespo's 2 year loan deal from Chelsea is up in the summer and talk is he is going back to Argie...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,697 ✭✭✭ciaran76


    Nuno Valenta signed another year deal with Everton too so he can be taken off the list too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,246 ✭✭✭Esse85


    Jussi at Bolton, is he free?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Canizares is being released by Valencia!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,097 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Canizares is being released by Valencia!

    Pool should really go for him. Really need a decent backup keeper with Itandje being rubbish and carson not willing to play second fiddle.

    If Maxi really is free Pool better pull out all the stops, but i think its a mistake, dont think he is.

    <edit> just found this link which says he's at Atleti till at least 2010..its a very old link so the contract may have even been extended since then.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Arsenal could do worse than move for Canizares either. Almunia isn't top class, and Lehmann's moving on.

    John Oster's going free now if anyone's interested......

    Who would you like to get for your team?

    Cant seem to edit the post to take of the players already on new contracts.

    This list was from early april, i have taken of the ones some of you guys noted as signed.

    Is there anyone else to add? or take off


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Reading - John Oster, Ulises De La Cruz, John Halls, Graham Stack, Adam Bygrave and Aaron Brown

    Bolton - Ivan Campo, Stelios Giannakopoulos and Andranik Teymourian

    Wigan - Josip Skoko and Salomon Olembe

    Newcastle - Peter Ramage

    Birmingham - Richard Kingson


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,820 ✭✭✭grames_bond


    i cant believe schmichael is goin on a free, thats crazy coz i think he is a really good keeper with bucket loads of potential! i do believe that if cardiff had him in goal for the fa cup final we could have seen a very different outcome!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,131 ✭✭✭✭loyatemu


    Gera is quality, I was amazed no-one signed him after WBA went down. But having helped get them back up I presume he'll stick with them.

    Have a look a few posts back. I cleared up the Schmeichel thing. He ain't a freebie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,407 ✭✭✭✭LuckyLloyd


    Well, if Gera and Campo were actually on a free they could be ideal for Stoke and Bristol / Hull who are desperately in need of those types of players.

    Agree that Gera was really impressive the season WBA went down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    Lee Carsley can now be added to this list!

    Would be a very good signing for any of the clubs that have come up. Main reason for leaving being that he wants to be closer to family (in Birmingham i think) so that probably narrows the field for him.

    Cassano
    Maxi
    Ujfalusi
    King
    Zanetti
    Degen
    Bouma
    Dacourt
    Crespo
    Valera
    Edmilson
    Yepes
    Mendy

    Would be the stand out picks, and in that order.
