Agreed. Silly move for him. He has hleb'd it all up. Barca will use him as a squaddie, he'll make 20-25 appearances to feature in the 7-0 drubbings against the shit teams, he'll pick up a winners medal and the fans will start saying he has justified his move. Because it doesn't come down to whether you've earned it or how much you've contributed - all that fucking matters is that you have a little medal to show your grandkids.Quote:

Shame for Song though, as he can't complete his transformation into the second coming of Zidane.
Barcelona have wasted almost as much money (Zlatan, Hleb, Chygsyt98yhiohgxx08 amongst others) as Chelsea and Citeh in recent years. Will Song be another pointless splurge?
I can see Song completely ruining his career. I do not know what transpired but going to Barca has got to be the worst move for him. They have biscuit and Mascherano in his position along with the likes of Cesc, Xavi, Iniesta in the other positions. The only place where he can slot in is CB and that too is doubtful with Puyol being fit.
Dont know what the lad is thinking!! I can understand RVP wanting to go to Utd but I am very certain that 2-3 years down the line, Song will be giving a similar interview like Hleb!
Success without having to work for it is the best kind though.Quote:

Let's face it though, which player is going to turn down playing for Barca one of the world's biggest clubs, as we've seen in the past the pull of Real and Barca is huge and it's no surprise for a player to jump at the chance of moving when he get's the call (plus the weather is 100 times better). He may never get the chance again if he turned them down.
Sad about this (if it goes through). I'll remember him as a quiet, self-effacing male and forget that stuff I've heard recently about him being an arrogant twat. And still wear my AS17 shirt. Until I get my Podolski one, of course.
