Ronaldinho to Man City
"Ronaldinho's brother - who also acts as his agent - flew into Thailand for talks with Manchester City last night. He asked for a personal audience with City's powerful owner Thaksin Shinawatra to gauge the interest in the Barcelona playmaker."
Im pretty sure I read somewhere that Ronaldinho doesn't like Man City. Imo, why the hell would someone like Ronaldinho play for a lackluster team in ManCity? No matter how much they pay you, if your team mates suck, it's got to be worse than the 'apparent' rifts at Barcelona.
I think Cristiano will move to Real, hes accomplished everything at ManU and it's time he sets new goals for himself, and I think La Liga is something heshould set his sights on while hes in this form. As much as I dislike him, he has been in stunning form.
As for my fellow Blaugrana supporters, we will just have to wait and see what Pep and Laporta have installed for us in the coming season. Personally I want:
- Dani Alves to be signed (which is a reality)
- Ronaldinho to stay - Malouda won't do things R10 is capable of even with Abdial - who also had a luckluster season.
- Fabricio Coliccini
- Gio to be loaned out
- Some sort of replacement for Deco.
Other than that, the most important thing regardless of what happens, is that the team build some sort of unity or trust within the club.

Last I checked, the transfer fees go to the club not the player. Anyway, I have no idea why Anelka is being wooed by so many clubs. He's been nothing but a bum recently.
