Will you club get a wunderwaffe (Sahin) or a sniper rifle (Altintop)

7 players are apparently on the chopping block according to Spanish radio and Bayern have put in a bid for Sahin €7m and Altintop is also surplus (told you he wouldn't play)

Let the annual Franco fire sale begin!

 

[Twizzle]

who are the 7 ?

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Only Sahin and Altintop were mentioned.

Past fire sales have included Robben & Sneijder. Gotta be in it to win it.

I can see these 4 leaving (in that order)...

Kaka
Coentrao
Pepe
Ramos

Bayern dodged an insanely expensive bullet in Coentrao, he got absolutely burned by Robben in the first leg.

I can't see Ramos or Pepe leaving though. I think these players will be on the chopping block: Sahin, Altintop, Khedira, Carvalho, Kaka, Raul Albiol & Diarra.

Id take albiol at arsenal or back at valencia
Kaka goes back to milan
Sahin to bayern
Diarra and altintop both to psg

 

[langpark]

Carvalho goes without saying I think, he'll be 34 in a few weeks. He'll either retire or take up a two-year retirement plan with some portuguese club...

According to this article Higuain is on his way out and Bayern are favourite to sign him. I really can't see how they would sign a striker who would cost so much when Heynckes prefers 1 man up front. Interesting though. Juventus, City, PSG and Chelsea supposedly the other clubs.

PSG would be silly enough to pay that much for him. Plus they may think he'd combine well with Pastore.

Also I think he holds a French passport because he was born there.

How old is Kaka now?

 

[HowHigh]

30 I believe

 

[Tom Shines]

Don't forget there's Fernando Gago out on loan as well

You know I meant outside their home country you imbecile. As in continental Europe.

By your logic, you can't say that Sahin failing is an indication of no Germans 'making it' in the big leagues of Europe when a whole bunch of them are 90 minutes away from being Champions of Europe.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Sahin is Turkish.

 

[Big Sam]

Sahin is Turkish.

No shit. But don't tell me, tell magpie who seems to think his failure at Madrid is an indication of how bad German players are (even though he's not German :roll.
