Guardiola continues to ruin Bayern with his unnecessary tinkering. Very sad.

Julio Cesar seemed set for Arsenal but he's coming to Napoli. Sorry, Lief. Tongue

Our owner has been teasing that there is a big announcement on the way and word is circulating that we're going to grab Ibra!  Cheesy

I'd love a double raid of PSG: Ibrahimovic and Verratti.

Tito Villanova has supposedly resigned as Barcelona coach. His cancer has returned.

Surprise, surprise: It is rumoured that Luis Gustavo may leave Bayern Munich, who have an oversupply of midfielders after the Thiago Alcantara deal.
Wolfsburg has already voiced their interest, and sponsor VW might find a few extra millions to pay for him. However, as Wolfsburg will not be playing internationally in the upcoming season, I doubt that Luis Gustavo will be particularly interested in joining them.

Hopefully Arsenal buys Gustavo. He'd be perfect.

Unfortunately it's becoming pretty obvious we're not buying anyone. Sad

Some big 2nd round games are being held at the Meadowlands (winner of Milan vs. Valencia vs. winner of winner of Inter vs. Chelsea then the losers of those matches facing off to advance to the 5th placed match). I'm going to go.  Smiley

I was reading the local newspaper today, and something caught my eye that phil might like to read:

Bayern just won the Telekom Cup with a 5-1 win over Borussia Mönchengladbach.

In the small final, Dortmund defeated the HSV with 1-0.

Looks like we're going to snag Higuain (Lief's look alike), beating Arsenal (Lief's team) to the punch! Cheesy

Also bidding for Lazio's Candreva. Him + Higuain + Verratti (unlikely but still some rumors about it) = Phil happy.  Smiley

Guus Hiddink has retreated from coaching Anschi Machatshkala, creating rumours that he may become the new Barcelona coach.

Barca needs to give way to Women:
Tomorrow's Bayern vs. Barca match (labelled Ulli Hoeness Cup) has been rescheduled to commence already at 18:30 instead at 20:30 as originally planned. German TV station ZDF, which holds transmission rights for the match, as well as for the Women's Euro, was not prepared to take the Sweden-Germany semi-final to be played tomorrow night out of the program and insisted on an earlier Bayern-Barca kick-off. Last Sunday, the Women's Euro Germany-Italy quarterfinal was played in parallel to the Telekom-Cup final (Bayern-Mönchengladbach). Both matches could be watched live on German TV, and the women won by 5 million to 1.7 million spectators.

On related news, Barca has officially announced Argentinian Gerardo "Tata" Martino (coach of the Paraguay team at the 2010 WC) as new coach, so the Hiddink rumour was just a rumour.
Luiz Gustavo has in an interview stated that he wants to stay at Bayern and take up the fight for a place among the starting eleven. But - I have heard such statements before...

Today is the BIG DAY:

The 2013 Uli Hoeneß Cup takes place in Munich between Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona.

The Cup is sold out with 75.000 tickets and it's the first time that Pep Guardiola will meet his former team as Munich coach.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Uli_Hoene%C3%9F_Cup

ZDF will show it live starting at 6pm local time, kick-off is 6:30pm

I say 2-1 Bayern.

I guess the interesting thing will be Pep's interactions with the Barça players especially after the Vilanova news.

Higuain is currently undergoing his physical for Napoli. Smiley Same with Reina, who we're bringing in on loan from Liverpool.

Ugh, Pep, with his incessant and unnecessary tinkering. Why is Lahm, one of the best fullbacks in the world, playing in midfield??

Barcelona had 2 very good chances as well already (one of them a 100% chance), but overall Bayern seems technically better.
