The Haitians have been quite impressive and are giving Spain a run for their money in this one goal game with ten minutes to go. Either team looks likely to score again.

ray1981 22,829 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Re: Official Spanish La Liga Discussion Thread They don't have a replacement keeper yet This is right. AS stated previously Valdes never said he was definetley staying. he wants the move to Monaco but will stay if Barca cannot find a "suitable" replacement. Reina would probably be a likely one if they stump up enough money I can see us selling. Hope he stays but I would not begrudge the guy a move to Barcelona considering all he has done and given to Liverpool. Always been a dream for him and nobody can deny the quality service he has given us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
