January Transfer Window 2012/2013 Season Rumours/Signings
- Thread starter BaZ87
- Start date
I think a loan move till the end of the season with a set fee/deal in place of circa 24m. Like the Ibrahimovic deal.
De Gea should move to Barca as he probably won't get bullied as much there. I really rated him at Atletico and would take him over Valdes.
Still young by keeper standards of course so no great rush to make the switch as I see it.

Really?
Reina has been a load of balls for a few seasons now...
I thought you Liverpool fans would be glad of the opportunity to bring in a quality keeper. In fact recently I think goalkeeping wise Liverpool have looked more comfortable when Jones has been playing than when Reina has.
Not that I think Barca would go in for Reina anyway.

I take it that means you disagree? Great post for a moderator btw
Considering Brad Jones is stealing a living as a goalkeeper, I think you'd find it hard to find anyone to agree with your point.

Brad Jones is essentially the guy at every school who always got picked last because they were rubbish at football and told to go in goal because nobody else wanted to... How he has ever played in the Premier league is beyond me.
Because his only competition at Boro was Ross Turnbull?
rumours today that Barca could look at Reina
Not having a great season, but still a class act (for some reason thought he was older than 30, so could still have a good few years at a top club if he wanted/ was forced to leave Liverpool)

Reina's distribution has been ropey for a few years now. He should move to rugby, his kicks find touch 9 times out of 10.

Not really understanding all this De Gea bashing (don't know what else to call it). He's 22 and has played in the best two leagues in the world as a 1st choice goalkeeper. He still looks like one of the best prospects in world football at the moment, has made some pronominal saves. I'd take him at Arsenal any day and then we would have the 2 best 22 year old goalkeepers in world 
pronominal? Maybe you meant phenomenal? Unless you mean that the saves 'resemble a pronoun'!

Perfect thanks, I can rest easily now

We have a Brazilian octopus for you that likes playing in goal if you fancy it?
Quite glad there's a complete lack on interest in Bale at the moment. I don't mind all the rumours about Spurs going to sign somebody just as long as they're not about anyone trying to sign our players!

Also:
De Gea still looks dodgy with nearly every corner or other arial ball
I know he is young, and sometimes he looks like he is improving only to seemingly take a step back in the next game
Good footwork though (although his goal kicks all too frequently go straight out)

I think he is rapidly improving under high balls and you're being a little harsh on him. I feel very confident in him these days, it's the players in front of him that have concerned me more this season.
They really do not
Maybe because they dont trust who is behind them (although constant rotation due to injuries doesnt help)
