that would be ridiculous. if he goes it must be at least 35m

But Why would he leave? fix starter and always delivers good play

LOL. News of the world. Only way he would be going would be if cesc was moving the other way. Or maybe pep is making room in the midfield for thiago.

Yaya:

"I love Barcelona. It is the best club in the world.

"I have been linked with a move to the Premier League but, to be honest, this is the best club.

"I want to finish my career here and show everyone that this club means a lot to me."

"One day, if the club does not want me then I will think about going. But if they want to keep me I will stay for life," he concluded.

Enough said!

even if he wants to make space for thiago it doesnt affect toure's position, toure is a classic dm,for his position we have only yaya and busquets (even keita is a diffent player)
and maybe marquez...
so with rotation yaya and busquets will get same matches and everyone will be happy

i wonder how will thiago move up the ranks with xavi 1st and iniesta 2nd owning the playmaker position....he could be usefull when we played with 2 amc's but now the one spot goes to a powerhouse keita style of player....

thinking of the last match where after our subs we played total attacking football with 2 amc's i am thinking why dont we change a little and play more offensive(i mean why wait to get behind in order to get that aggresive),i am not talking about major changes just switching keita and play with xavi iniesta in the middle and with the 3 forwards....
really i cant wait till the champions league games where pep will have more pressure and we will finally be able to watch this barca at full speed

The story was published in New of the World and one of the first comments below the story read NOTW haven't published an Arsenal story in weeks so they dug this one out of their archives to appease the Arsenal fans.

We bought him for 12 million €. 13,5 million € is a joke for him. Otherwise this story is a bullshit. :S

you can tell its fake from the 13.5 million tag. rofl hes worth double that. imo hes the best defensive mid in the world. if it doesnt involve a trade of some sort with cesc or persie then its just fake.
