If it is true that Thiago only costs 18 Million € he would be the best deal for a long time. But the thing is he is leaving Barca because he didn´t play enough but Bayerns Midfield is even deeper.

they only have Schweinsteiger and Martinez, so he will have plenty of chances to play
he is a CM, right?

It depends heavily on the system. In a 4-2-3-1 there would be Schweinsteiger, Martinez, Luiz Gustavo, Toni Kroos, Hoijberger (i spelled it wrong, he is 18 and kind of a Martinez with more offensive skills) and Can. In this system he would have the same problem as in Barcelona, with Martinez and Schweinsteiger playing for sure if they are healthy.

in a kind of 4-1-4-1 (which switches into a 3-4-3 in the offense) he would have better chances because it kind of have a "double 8" which he could play with Kroos or Schweinsteiger (depending on where Martinez plays as CB or in the defensive midfield). This looks pretty realistic because it would explain the interest into Thiago and in the first testgames it looked like the preferred system

There is some Zidane in Thiago, from what I have seen on youtube. I wish he could develop as a true #10. And that's not going to happen at Bayern.

Also for dutch speakers specifically, whats that chant ?


Never heard it before. It seems like it's all in English though ('White boys we love you' 'Eindhoven we love you'). It also states that it's PSV fans but it's likely Eindhoven fans, which is a club from the second division. Same city as PSV obviously.

And I guess Eindhoven's jersey is white otherwise it could be interpreted as racism lol.

I had the idea they are PSV fans. There are some PSV jerseys in the crowd, which would frowned upon, and they cheer for the PSV goal. Eindhoven is blue-white iirc. I don't know or ever heard the chant though.

I've watched full games I got from torrents, enough to make my own opinion, you know, not only hearsay.
And he's not really an oldie, oldies are players like pele or di stephano not even considering legends like dixie dean or silvio piola who lived more than a century ago, lol.

I think the oldies in that case would be Pelé, Di Stefano, Eusébio, Puskás. But to have watched all these players "extensively" I believe your age must be 500 or something.lol

SPOX


kicker for the serious stuff. spox for all the rumours etc, you'll find anything there. Spox are clickwhores though, they will create a little article for everything, like "Today Pep said this while training". And they are a little bit Bayern-focused, because a) well, Bayern has the most fans and b) their team is based in Munich.

good, i live in munich ^^

Guardiola said today in a press conference, that he wants Thiago (with the usual praising for that player). Furthermore he has expressed his wish for Thiago to Sammer and Rumenigge (who are responsible for transfers), the rest is up to the Bayern management, so I guess we will see Bayern push for Thiago.
But does it djent?

Line at the wall is a spray used by the referees during U20 World Cup and U23 Euro to mark a line the wall can't pass. It disappear after a few minutes. Pretty sure it's a test by FIFA and will probably be implemented for World Cup

Yeh the Americans started it all off, fair play to them. I noticed it alot when watching Chelsea pre season tour of 'Murica. They spray the line after they measured the 10 yards to stop wall coming closer to ball, and if freekick taker moves ball closer then it there fault too! Good thing to do imo

I have seen refs use a can of spray paint to mark 10 yards so he has an idea of how much incroachment is happening when he walks away.

Ha late. That's what I get for not refreshing when I came back.

18M for Thiago is a 'good' price. I don't think he's worth more really... He's young yes, but he hasn't proved anything yet. He has never played big games for Barça, and even in smaller games he has never really shined. Of course he's young and in Barcelona you need to be a monster to shine when there is Messi and Iniesta around you but still, I never saw something amazing in this kid (except for his godlike technical skills).
If you put him in Xavi's role, he's going to be average because he doesn't have the discipline needed for that kind of role, and he doesn't really like to defend. His best position is playmaker behind a 9. He's at his best when he doesn't need to defend too much and when he has many passing solutions (which he can exploit really well thanks to his technical skills) and when he can have the freedom to shoot at the goal and do solo moves. In Barcelona, I doubt he can play at this position as long as Iniesta is there, and I doubt they will put him to replace Xavi as he has never been good in this position (I would put Dos Santos there, or buy Veratti ).

In Bayern he would fit nice but still would have to face a tough competition: Schweinsteiger, Kroos, Müller (I'm not sure if he's still used like this, but still an indirect competitor). Maybe Pep wants to change their 4-3-3 but if he doesn't, I don't see him play Thiago without making big ennemies in the team :s
Manchester United would be a nice place to go for him as he needs stability and time on the field. But on the other side there is Guardiola so...

edit: shit I even forgot Gotze in the list
