It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

MONEY thats what weve got and plenty of it.

Do you really honestly think footballers these days put playing in the champions league before £50grand or more extra per game.

Come off it Chris.

Weve both had a laugh tonight but the morals in football are these days all centred around cash and I think you know that.

Sadly what you have is David Moyes. Bayern have Pep Guardiola nuff said :O)

Do you really think Barklay will be at Goodison come August when UTD have trebled his salary and if UTD dont do it somebody else will.

He'l go to World cup talk to Stevie G and few others of the boys in the squad, find out how much they are getting and he'l be on his way as soon as he hits British soil again wether hes in champions league or not.

Stevie G said he stayed at Liverpool when chelski wanted him because he was loyal to the club....YEAH loyal when hed been offered £75 grand a game more. And remember liverpool werent in the champions league.

Gf - Everton play Arsenal on Saturday, Ozil cost more than Evertons squad. If by some miracle we win our remaining six matches guaranteed 4th place. Barkley has already said that he has learned more under Martinez than he did under Moyes, who incidentaly put him out on loan. So yes, given the choice I think for the time being he would stay at Everton under Martinez's wing and be guaranteed first team football. He would also have seen first hand what has happened to Jack Rodwell at City. Rumour has it Rodwell may come back on loan next season.

No chance, he'l be on his way his head swayed by the jack the lads of the England squad.

Very refreshing to see ManU playing with lots of guts and determination and also, not just with one, but often with two solid defensive lines.

Rooney is a good player but he does give the ball away far too often with clumsy passes. He then often immediately wastes lots of energy in determined runs to try and get the ball back again.

1-1 was a fair result, IMHO, and 'Good Luck' to them in the next leg. Bayern are really going to miss their Schwein Tiger next time round, who was the only one in this match, who managed to get the ball into the net.

... and Chelski had the softest draw !!!

The agent of Romelu Lukaku has admitted he has already held talks with Tottenham over a summer move to White Hart Lane.
As first revealed by Telegraph Sport last week, Spurs have placed Chelsea striker Lukaku at the top of their summer hit list.
Lukaku has spent the season on loan at Everton, scoring 13 goals in 26 games, but is set to be part of Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho's clear-out of his forward players.
Chelsea value 20-year-old Lukaku at £25m, which will make it difficult for Everton to sign the Belgian permanently.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is prepared to fund a move for Lukaku and offer him a significant rise to his current £40,000-a-week wages.

Lukaku's agent Christophe Henrotay told Belgium newspaper Het Nieuwsblad: "I'm looking for a club for Romelu. And yes, I've talked to Daniel Levy once, but that doesn't mean Romelu will definitely join Spurs. That's not a talking point at this moment.
"There aren't 20 teams that can afford to buy Romelu. He won't go from Everton to, let's say, Swansea. There's also a difference between Everton that plays against relegation and an Everton that fights for European football.”

Lukaku is a Chelsea player until Jose says otherwise. End of.

Probably his biggest mistake this season was allowing him out on loan - mind you if he'd stayed he would have had to fight Torres, Eto'o and Ba for a place

Some battle

;)

Torres is on £175,000 a week and has two years of his contract left. Chelsea will reputedly have to pay him £10million to get rid of him before his contract ends.

Dont think so much of him personaly.

Far better strikers about and going cheaper.

See Joey Barton putting boot in Rooney yesterday.

Says no way is he a world class player.

How so true.

We must be mad paying him 300 grand a week.

Joey Barton LOL THUG!!

Used to play for you didnt he?

Anyway didnt you see that report about Burton in the papers, hes a very inteligent bloke really but as a very rare gene medical problem which pumps too much adrenalin into him and hence his actions.

Poor lads only just found out.

Hes got Rooney weighed up perfecly, more or less made out hes just in it for the money. Compared him to Ronaldo and all the extra training he does etc etc etc.

God forbid Barton ever plays for Everton. Sorry to hear about his illness though.

Who is Joey Barton to say Rooney isn't a world class player. If Linekar, Shearer, or Michael Owen made a comment like that it might carry some weight, but the trouble with Barton is, a) he thinks he is/was a better football player than he is/was, b) he thinks he is more intelligent than he is, c) he thinks he can fool people into believing a & b !

Agree db footballer my arxe.

Well yes I agree doodles, Barton isnt a fantastic footballer but just like you me and chris he as the option in a democratic country like ours to express an opinion and by the way Linekar, Shearer and Owen werent world class players , so that argument doesnt carry any clout.

The last truly world class player (definition .......player who would be in an historical world 22 squad at any one time)England had was Paul Gascoigne.

This use of the word world class gets used too often and out of context.

To give you an example of British players in the last 20 years who have been called world class just name one who moved abroad and lit up the World.................answer...........perhaphs just 2 Rush and Brady and then again thats debatable.

If your looking at truly British World class players look at Banks, Wilson, Moore, Charlton, Best, Jennings, Law, Daglish, Gascoigne, and maybe Giggs and Keane and Cleverly in their pomp, the rest are a myth.

Strictly my opinion but all you have to do today (or anytime) is compare the number of British footballers playing abroad at top clubs or any clubs compared to the lads from abroad playing here.

Off topic I love football history, loads of tapes and DVDs on football. Football historian.
Up for a debate.
