if its chelsea, that would really piss me off. that will be their first real world class signing. i fear chelsea might have made an offer roma cannot refuse, especially considering their financial situation. Some russian group were supposed to takeover but didnt. wonder if abramovic had a word. Really hope real madrid are also one of the bidders, i'm sure he would choose them over chelsea (or at least i hope so).

that would be bloody

Damn Chelsea Bar Stewards!!
However a while ago I did read that Totti would only leave Roma for Real Madrid. Dunno if its true though.

:shock: EVEN IF THEY BROUGHT MARADONA THE BEST EVER ... THEY CAN`t DO ANY THING TO THE GUNNERS

I think it could only be Chelski, Man U or Real Madrid. I think he'd only go to Madrid, he certainly wouldn't go to any other Italian team. It's a shame to see this happen to Roma, I did quite like them. Particularly this season they've been really good.

i read last month that Barca are to be given 200million to spend on players over the next two years so i would include them as potential bidders

I suppose that would be good for them, as there's no way they're getting Henry!

An attacking midfield force of Totti and Ronaldinho would be incredible!

Totti is a class act, but I reckon he would not shine in the premiership as much, just like Veron.

 

[patrick42uk]

totti once said he would only leave roma if it was to help them through financial struggle. i think that will mean he goes to the highest bidder..... Chelsea seem to want to get in the habit of 'statement' signings which is what laporta is trying to do at barcelona. Now its common knowledge that totti is real madrid's next galactico target, despite what jorge valdano says. What a statement it would be if he was unveiled with the blue of chelsea. They will pull out all their resources to get him, and they have a lot of that!

 

[lewdikris]

It'll be Madrid. Totti's too good a player to go to Chelsea - and he's the obvious next Galactico in the absence of Henry. Christ knows where he'll play exactly, but if he does leave (and I don't reckon he will) it'll be to the Whites.

 

[Mark]

If Totti goes to Madrid, he would be the player to replace Zidane and would fill his role. Tough job to replace Zidane, but there's probably no one better to do it.

 

[lewdikris]

Bizarrely, it would be to replace Guti. Leaving a team line-up something like:

Casillas

Salgado Muppet 1 Muppet 2 Carlos

Figo Beckham Zidane

Totti Raul

Ronaldo

Well, they'd score a few goals (!) but i'm not sure about the defence!

This, shamefully, will probably be what happens.

 

[JazzG]

R.Madrid are being investigated IIRC so maybe no big signing this summer? Also they said they will buy a top quality defender, they would be really stupid to buy another attacking player. Also they are almost definitely gonna go for Joaquin as well.

Most likely to be Chelsea tbh but could be any club. The bid probably won't be accepted anyway, could be us for all we know :wink:

 

[laolu]

well, they could go for Joaquin, Totti and Ayala

can't they? :wink:

They'd conceed about as many as they'd score with that formation. They're basically playing 3 upfront and Figo, Zidane and Beckham aren't exactly defensive players, leaving their very weak defence completely exposed. They should go for a more defensive midfielder and a CB to balance the team out a bit. Xabi Alonso of Sociedad is a quality DMC, they should go for someone like him.

I hear ya thats the only thing holding them back form being the best team in the world with out doubt. There defence i would laugh very hard if they bought another attacking player.

 

[Soler]

The thing is they're still the benchmark team for everyone. If you can beat Real Madrid, then you're practically the best team in the world in most peoples' opinion.

 

[kNiteMare]

Intriguingly there is some speculation that Nafta's decision to drop their interest has been ordered by Abramovich, who is a share-holder in the company, in a bid to leave Roma more susceptible to a big-money bid for Totti.

IF that is true i would really feel sorry for Roma, and i would say Abramovich has again seriously F*** up the football world. Seriously, since he arrived there is nothing but disaster.

i though Barcelone were in debt? 200 million. that alot!!!!

 

[gunnertilldeath]

that sould be really f*ucked up for chelsea to get totti. it would be like having a cross between del piero and zidane playing for them. scary but it wont be the end of the world.
