Villa goes to Barca for £34.5 million

It should be some team there this season.

Wonder if Real will go all out for Rooney then.

They will have to keep up with Barca.

£34.2m confirmed http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2...celona-arsenal

Yeah, they needed to strengthen tbh. You know, what with only racking up a mere 99 points this season.

The jokes on them though, wait till they see Chikabow-wow in action.

Sounds like a Ricky Martin lyric.

imagine being a fan and your summer signings are fabregas and villa

outstanding stuff from barca

xavi
iniesta
messi
pedro
fabregas
villa
zlatan

The TV money in Spain makes a massive difference as they sell their rights individually.

If we didn't have the Glazers in charge, we could spend £60m every season and not worry about it.

If the premier league allowed individual tv rights utd would eclipse everyone else.

Tell you what - we will have unicef on our shirts and just quadrupple our tv money and lower everyone elses.

our TV income was apparently £100m last year?

Wasn't there a quote somewhere from a club insider saying that over the last 4 years if were still a plc we'd be "drowning in money"

In all seriousness, he'd be crazy to turn them down.

£53M. Barca's was £100m. Our shirt sponsorship is around £10m a year.

Whilst Real and Barca can negotiate their own TV rights, the big players will continue to go there. Whilst their fans might enjoy it in the short term, it's ruining their league and starting to make the Scottish league look competitive!

Apparently most of the other clubs are trying to get it changed so that the TV rights are sold collectively.

He could buy factor 40, he'd be fine.

I bet, deep down, he'd jump at the chance.

How will he dislodge Ibrahimovic?
