I have been hearing that since I dont know how long, and it has always been the case. The signings by both Barca and Madrid every year makes the el classico the most anticipated clash year in year out!

I love their transfer policy

'oh they buy him for 80m'

search some hyped player, sign him for the same amount + 1m

Dominate · Jul 22, 2014

Interested to see how Carlo is going to make this work

Pharaoh · Jul 22, 2014

over paying for talent over and over, nog to mention this undermines bale and isco which might lead to morale issues.

Going back to a two horse race.

Don't see the fun of watching the league if the big two just buy everyone. Everybody else is miles behind, very unbalanced

markovic · Jul 24, 2014

jeremy mathieu for 20M? :lol:

thank God I support Milan

Madridista · Jul 24, 2014

I see James playing as a false nine rotating with Benzema.

Mozack · Jul 24, 2014

30M profit in 2 days from James shirts sale.

That's what people said last year and look what happened.

I don't know what people think but I fully expect Atletico to challenge for trophies again this year. They just signed Griezmann who might end up being their best player, that kid is gonna be good. They bought quality with him, Mandzukic and a gk I can't remember. All in all they could end up being better and stronger in attack.

I was thinking the same: Atletico's attack is looking good now. Last year they coped very well after the departure of their star man Falcao. I think that with Mandzukic and Griezmann Atletico Madrid can repeat this. Atletico sure is making Primera Division exciting again.

I am really looking forward to the Primera Division this year. I can't wait to see whether the combination of Neymar, Messi and Suarez will work. It still puzzles me that they spend 88 million Euro on Suarez. With that money they could have bought two world class CB's, but instead they invest in an area that hardly needs improvement. That would also allow Mascherano to play at his natural position again.

I can't comprehend how with all the money they've spent the last 2 seasons the couldn't go out and get a first rate cb. In addition to upgrading that position, like you said it would allow Mascherano to do his thing as well. Just don't get it!

Mozack · Jul 29, 2014

Atletico already spent over 100M on transfer till now...wow.

Mario · Jul 29, 2014

Nah i got bored of the cassico some time ago. 6 times per year between cups and la liga was overload.

This season im back interested. Something new in barcas midfield and probably 7 world class best at what they do forwards on the pitch between them sounds too good to miss.

So many quality players on the pitch. Pique will feel so out of place.

J. Oblak €16M
M. Mandžukić €22M
Á. Correa €7.5M
Guilherme Siqueira €10M
Griezmann €30M

That's 85m

crazy4milan · Aug 3, 2014

Congrats Keylor, you deserve this

And that song too :tongue:

EL ÚNICO TICO QUE SABE VOLAR.

Actually he is a top guy, and his lasst season was insane, he was really good since his debut, but last season he even improved in his weakness (corners). It's incredible for a GK from this area got to a team like RM, just going out of CR to Europe is already big for a GK, but getting to the top...

It's not a great picture, but I'd gladly have sex with Bale.

For sexual reasons, not gold-digging.

Soldier_of_god · Aug 9, 2014

Soldier_of_god · Aug 9, 2014

KujaIX · Aug 9, 2014

Oh to be thrown onto some hay by him.

*smileywithloveheartsthing*
