how is emerson going anyway?
You want my thoughts on Emerson:
Emerson could decide to have a year off from the game if Roma dont agree to sell him to Juventus.
That is according to his wife, who told an Italian TV show of how desperate he is to have his future sorted out.
"We are separated but we keep in touch because of our child," she told Telelombardia. "Hes very agitated and nervous right now.
"I asked him whether it was down to his situation with Roma and he told me he was ready to spend the next year in Brazil.
"All this will occur if the Giallorossi dont decide to release him to the Turin club this summer."
The Brazilian international, whose contract in the capital expires in 2005, has a verbal agreement to join the Bianconeri.
Hes been handed a four-year contract but Juventus have yet to agree a fee with the Olimpico outfit.
They have reportedly offered around £7m but Roma want £13m - a figure Real Madrid and Inter are both prepared to pay.
Roma will start pre-season training this week but the former Bayer Leverkusen ace will be absent after sending medical certificates which state he is suffering from depression.
What a f**king farce!
Firstly, he has a contract with Roma until the END of next year. The fact that he hasnt turned up to pre-season training should result in a fine at the very least.
He signed a contract and he has to fulful it. It's as simple as that. At the moment he is in breach of contract. And please don't tell me anyone is going to believe the depression story?
FFS, he must have a short term memory, as it was Roma who paid his wages for more than 12 months after he did his cruciate, which was right after we bought him from Leverkusen. I distinctly remember him sitting in the stands crying because he couldn't turn out for us when he was injured.
Roma are doing everything they can do resolve his transfer. What does he expect the club to do? Accept the p1ss poor offer that Juve have made just because he is whinging and suffering from "depression"? Get farked.
If he wants to move to Juve then he should tell Moggi to get his finger out of his arse and pay us the fee we are demanding or get farked. (I believe we are asking 10 Million + Blasi or 12 Million with not player). Otherwise he isnt going anywhere.
f**k if we didnt have financial problems, then I would make him stay until his contract finished, forcing him to train, whilst letting him rot on the bench for a year. f**k him
