Sounds like RM want to get rid of this Cellabos. Don't know him. Could someone enlighten me?

Sorry I’ve heard we can’t improve the team if Eriksen leaves
ochfacepalm:
Transfer window roundup...
Vorm -> New keeper (We've not been linked with a goalie although we have signed a young keeper (16yo))
Dembele -> New centre mid (We've been linked with NDombele although Onomah returns from shef wed)
N'Jie -> New forward (We've been heavily linked with Clarke from Leeds)
Is Eriksen leaving? (we've been linked with Lo Celso)
If Alderweireld leaves (he said he expects to still be here next season, we've been linked with Andersen and Carter-Vickers returns from swansea)
Trippier has said he doesn't know if he'll be here next season (we've been loosely linked with Wan Bissaka and Atal)
Rose has said it might be time to move on (we've been linked with Sessengon)
Wanyama looks like we've broken him (we haven't been linked to a dm, talk of Diawara, Skipp will be a year older)
Llorente is 34? (we haven't been linked with a forward, loose talk of Adams) We have signed a young striker. Parrot has signed a new contract.

Watch last night's Spain v Italy ... his side lost but by far the best player on the park ... this is from the Real Madrid fan site ....
Dani Ceballos scores golazo in Spain’s 3-1 loss to Italy in U-21 Euros
Some names mentioned here that I hadn't thought about. But the video is probably a few weeks dated since Demirbay has moved to Leverkusen.

If they think Alfie Whiteman could come off the bench in the Premier League then we don't need to spend on a 3rd goalkeeper.
For the first half hour, yes, disappeared after that.
The best players over the 90 minutes by some distance were Italy's Chiesa (wing/forward) and Pellegrini (CM).
And, as I may have said before, Ceballos is a cunt
It's this a way to cheat FFP rules also? RM buys Eriksen for 200M and we buy Isco for 160M. FFP sorted, only 40M exchanged owners.
No, in fact its probably detrimental as the revenues can be realised immediately but purchases can be amortised over the length of a contract.
It helps Madrid obviously as they need to sell but putting him in a deal rather than selling elsewhere outright adds no benefit.
See where you're coming from but it all depends on the asset value on the books, for us Eriksen is probably fully depreciated so we would be 'adding' 160m to our asset value plus 40m in cash ... we could account for that over 50 years at 40m a year ... that would be our FFP increase.
As we have increased our income via gate receipts, TV revenue, advertising, merchandising all of which qualify under FFP rules, we have something like 140m a year in our back pocket ... in theory we could buy three players for 450m amortize that over five years, increase our salary spend by 50m a year, and we'd still be safely within FFP rules ...
Kinda why we spent a billion quid on infrastructure (which is exempt under FFP) ... that's called playing the system something we're very good at ...
What's wrong with southern Spain, Bill?!!
I see what you mean by adapting badly though. Reyes comes to mind
Two new CM's allows Alli and Eriksen to go back to being attackers, Son and Lucas can cover the CF spot adequately.
Lyon have apparently bid for Thiago Mendes from Lille...............
He's a DM.
He's a DM.
Everton also apparently bid for him.
"Trippier is a weak link". I've heard this mentioned before somewhere.......
He's apparently liked Lyon related stuff on Twitter if that means anything.
