With regard to Cesc, the terms were already decided, but Arsenal wanted to sell him for 40 mill and Barca weren't prepared to pay that.
Were in the that was Hunter lying? But of course, you may have better sources.
How do you know about Cesc? Are you his agent?
He's a fucking shit journalist who is always gobbing on about complete and utter shit, if we believed everything he said then Rooney would be on his way to Barcelona, Fabregas would be at Barcelona and Ronaldo would of joined Real Madrid in 2007.
I may be Cesc's agent or I may have been reading numerous articles (in both English and Spanish), listening to numerous journalists, and in general soaking in information. No though, lets's go with the first one. I am Cesc's agent.
You're slating him for things not happening when you have no clue what was happening behind the scenes. What is Ronaldo was close to joining Madrid in 2007? What is Cesc was close to being at Barca? What is Rooney did have talks with Barcelona? You are going to tell me without a shadow of a doubt that these things may not have been close to occurring?
Sure, people can get something wrong. Maybe he saw lots of smoke and cried "Fire!" but saying he is a crap journalist based on a few transfer sagas doesn't make sense. I've listened to him and read his articles for nearly two years, and for someone who follows La Liga he's spot on 98% of the time. The man knows what he's talking about.
He takes stories from Spanish newspapers and makes them his own therefore he's a cock.
How do you know that? Hunter doesn't subscribe to being a pawn of any of the Spanish papers who if you haven't noticed are incredible biased. If he is reporting on Spanish football to a non-Spanish audience (which he is), why would he tell you what the papers are saying. Not like you read them. In my experience he always makes a clear distinction between his opinions and info from other sources.
