nah, they're like inter. always sign too many star players for their own good. I just hope Juve gets a decent and a half playmaker next season. Pavel is getting old and isn't the natural "creative" playmaker that juve needs. Juve definately needs another defender too, bringing Chiellini back from Fiorentina would be very helpful.

Ok I over exxagerated a bit, they are wining the la liga, a feat inter haven't been able to do for approx 2 decades now. But it's a fact, Barca are too rich for their own good. Each season they sign too much. They'd be better off signing less and creating a solid compact team. Too many teams these days are signing too many players each season. It's becoming quite like the NBA... except worse, because there is no limit, a team can spend $X amount of money each summer transfer season. Well the two teams in the final Liverpool and Milan live up to the fact that creating a team overtime pays off. Neither of them go ape shit when it comes to the summer transfer market and now they are rightfully facing each other in the CL final.

personally i hate barcelona but i disagree with your comment that they are signing stars ... besides ronaldinho none of the players they signed were considered stars ... deco, eto'o, guily, marquez were all considered very good players but not in the star category and barcelona buy from mediocre clubs and therefore get good deals and that is something madrid should learn from instead of sticking to their policy of only the top player in every position whereas barca buy potential stars who usually end up turning into one like eto'o and deco have

Couldnt have said it better, except for the first part
and dont forget youth players that make it to the first team and grow into 'stars'

my biggest area of interest in the transfer window would be who gets to buy vincent kompany ... hes still young and apparently has unbeleivable potential

right now no transfer is 100% confirmed ... barca could be current favorites to land van bommel but another club could swoop in with a bigger offer ... united in aprticular need someone like him to fill up keano's boots since he wont be seeing much action next season ...

Barca haven't signed Gallas or Ballack. That's pure speculation at the moment. Gallas isn't going anywhere as Chelsea regard him and Terry as their first choice CB. I don't see Ballack being transfered for anything less then 20 million, and even if that happens, i'm sure more then a few teams will bid for his services.

Also, whoever suggested ManU will trade RVN for Raul needs to lay off the crack. Rauls had an abysmal season and there's no way that Fergie would let his ace striker leave OT in exchange for Raul who's untested in the premiership.

These are the transfers i see as being likely in summer


Real Madrid
-----------
In : Robinho, Jaoquin
Out : Owens

Man U
------
In : Kermani, Essien
Out : Saha, Bellion, Miller, Smith

Aresnal
-------
In : Shaun wright Philips, Essien (?),
Out : Edu, Pires (?)

Chelsea
-------
In : Shaun wright Philips, Adriano, Chivu, Maniche
Out : Kezmen, Geremi, Scot Parker, Crespo

Liverpool
---------
In : Aimar / Raquilme + a striker who plays in spain.
Out : Baros, Kewell, Biscan, Smicer, Diouf, Diao
