Zlatan Ibrahimovic

[VLE]

How many new players who have joined us since jose joined has talked about the great opportunity of working under him?? You don't like him that's fine but that doesn't change the fact that many players want to play for him.

Not even god himself could make ibra want to stay. I am 100% sure jose would have tried.

Like how Ibra said Mancio found him a new role and is utilizing himself better than Capello? or Adri saying Mancio is like a big brother to him? or cuchu, Maicon, JC, Deki etc.

I told my boss he is a great guy. I think he is an ass.

Don't think there will be a deal to be honest

What is different is what you say officialy after you don't work for this boss. Till this day 90% of all the players Jose coached has talked about him in great manner.

Who from Chelsea said is happy Jose left ? Noone. Who said is happy after Mancio left... ?

The only player I know was complaining at Jose was Makelele couple years after, although it seems idiotic to say, as Makelele was a pivotal person in Joses tactics.

Laporta says The arrival of Ibrahimovic does not depend on the decision to Eto'o.

They want to keep Ibra in their team as soon is possible, seems like Eto'o want Extra Time in this deal just he is taking time from this deal

Guardiola says the exact opposite as the Barcelona President...

Meanwhile, Ibrahimovic is still a player of Inter. However, his arrival depends on Eto'o. Can we get him even without the departure of Cameroonian? We are rich, but not so much. And then it would also be a bad deal.

Vitomins, how do you think this will go ?

Sorry, I'm just curious

 

[vitomins]

Well, it does seem that the deal will go through, but like I said before...when you have so many different parties having to agree on terms, the chances of the deal failing is much higher than it being a success. I just absolutely loved the way Balotelli, Ibra, and Milito played together last night, and it really made me think of what a lethal combo Ibra and Milito could be...


That being said, I am one who does not consider Eto'o just a poacher, I have seen him score goals that can absolutely mirror ones of Ibra...Either way I feel we will be very strong next year, but for some reason I really want to be wearing an Ibra-10 jersey next year... lol

Damn, we cant really this thing drag out much longer. If we are selling Ibra, we need to do it NOW otherwise we are not going to have enough time finding his replacements.

Since we need more than one player to successfully replace him, pre season will be very important for all these new players to gel.

 

[classexa]

Yeah, I think Eto'o is gonna be a problem and I'm just fine with Ibra staying. I can't wait to see what Ibra, Balo and Milito can cook up for next season. And with Motta in the midfield, this can be a very fun season

On the other hand, it will be interesting to see Eto'o at Inter and see if he can be the scoring beast he was at Barca

I thought you followed Mourinho for quite some time when you defend him that much.

...Mutu, Ballack, Sheva, Gallas, Terry and Carvalho during the season.

If we are going to sell Ibrahimovic, we must find and playmaker. Zlatan was something like playmaker + striker.

Yes, but IMO it must be a playmaking midfielder...Cassano would just give us too many attacking options I think and still leave a big hole in the midfield...

Here's my take. Eto'o says "I decide if the deal happens or not". The reason he says that is because he really can't stand the notion he's used as a makeweight. He wants to give the impression that he's in control, not Ibra, not Moratti and definitly not Laporta and Guardiola. Basicly what he's trying to do is save face.

In saying that though he put Barca at a difficult position and Laporta therefore reacts by saying "We will get Ibra regardless of Eto'o" acting as if Eto'o is insignificant in the matter and he has no power to control what happens, trying to push Eto'o to agree. In saying that though Laporta once again makes Eto'o look bad, therefore Guardiola's latest comments "I think it's best for Eto'o to leave" but also "He can stay and there won't be problems" and "we won't buy Ibra without Eto'o" is just a way to massage Eto'o's ego and make him feel like the one in charge again.

That's all there is too it in my opinion. Eto'o will sign for Inter and Ibra will go the other way. It's as done a deal as could be. Complicated and full details, yes, but a done deal nonetheless.

What does mancini have to do with mou and players liking him?? Facts are most of mou's current and past players like him. He is held in high regard throughout the football world.

Not saying he didn't issues with some like carvalho but in the end he still respected him.

 

[classexa]

Can they stop messing around. If the deal is gonna happen, do it now. We need to have as much of the pre-season as possible

 

[CafeCordoba]

Well explained, I agree with you XL. The problem I see here is the "golden handshake" Eto'o and Mesalles will demand from Barcelona. Laporta might not be too happy with it. Probably he will eventually accept, as long as it isn't some 10m€, but 5m€ or so like suggested in the media. Hopefully this can go through fast. But it remains to be seen if Eto'o will come to Inter America tour at all? I think the tour ends after the derby against Milan in Boston on Sunday.

mancio was brought because I as well as you know interviews related to him the most. I can change it to how players were happy to play with Zacheronni etc when they joined the club.

Ya, that probably is the biggets stumbling block at this point. I don't follow the transfer rumors as religiously as you Cafe but are you sure he's only demanding 5 mil from Barca? I could of sworn I read he wanted 15-20. On the other hand it was goal.com so...

If it's only 5 I think Barca should just pay it to get rid of him and end this thing.

The media were referring to the signing bonus city offered him to sign for them. They offered him €25 million and €13 million a season but he still rejected them.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Yeah, and demanding around 20m€ from a real club (not like ManCity) would be considered quite a hilarious from any aspect. Even 5m€ is pretty much considering that it's almost Eto'o's salary for next season he would get if he stayed. But I think Laporta will pay him, if the demand is something like that. It's good for Inter, it might mean we don't have to pay any significant signing in bonus to Eto'o and his agent (surely something but not much).
