Hull>>>the south of France?!

By: Richard | August 6th, 2009

This is getting laughable.

Let’s say you have a team on the French Riviera with a proud history. Shouldn’t be too hard to attract players, should it? Let’s look and laugh at how Monaco’s transfer targets changed over the summer. I will play myself, and my partner in the conversation will be the collective gods of football…

Me: hmm, we need an attacker…how about RVN?
TGOF: yeah, right.
Me: Shevchenko?
TGOF: keep dreaming.
Me: Julio Cruz?
TGOF: sorry.
Me: OK, maybe we were aiming too high. Maybe we should stay within the confines of Ligue 1.
TGOF: Good idea.
Me: Savidan?
TGOF: YES!…but he will retire before joining.
Me: How about Dindane?
TGOF: Who?
Me: Aruna Dindane? from Lens…he used to be good.
TGOF: Ummmm, no.
Me: Alright, i’m getting a headache. Let’s leave the topic of forwards for now. Let’s talk about the defense and the midfield. What can you offer me?
TGOF: How about Coutadeur?
Me: Really?!
TGOF: No.
Me: I heard Olofinjana wants to join us from Stoke.
TGOF: Nah, he’s going to Hull.
Me: Hull?!! Are you kidding me? A guy who has already spent a year at Stoke would rather play out a relegation battle in Hull over us?! We’re in the south of France, for ****’s sake!
TGOF: Calm down, calm down. I do have an exciting bit of news for you.
Me: Really? What’s that?
TGOF: Mourinho will pay 4 million euros for Pino.
Me: I’m leaving.

Monaco begin the season this weekend against Toulouse.

  haha. that was funny and sad. Before Monaco can start attracting stars they need a solid season. As a player I would look at Monaco’s record for past few seasons and notice that there has been no progress. On the top of that there is hardly any money to invest.

  LOL, nice post. The Stade Luis II looks like a quite depressing sometimes, that might be one of the problems.
