December 14, 2007 -

Juan Pablo Carrizo: The goalkeeper had confirmed that his era in River had come to an end, though his European passport has not been validated yet. Other possibilities exist at the moment, yet the doors to stay with "la banda" have opened up once again.

Fernando Belluschi: Porto of Portugal and Olympiakos of Greece are interested in him. Although there are no official offers for him, River's directives aren't going to put any traps to his possible departure. A positive point? Simeone requested that they don't sell him, not to mention that River would only get 40% of his transfer money if he is sold (not too much money).

Augusto Fernandez: Fiorentina (Italy) and Levante (Spain) are planning on acquiring the right winger over the January transfer window. The plan, for now, is to not sell both Belluschi and him at the same time (one would leave, while the other would stay for at least another six months).

Radamel Falcao Garcia: Fluminense of Brazil are still interested in the foward's services. They were willing to pay $5,000,000 for 50% of the transfer, though River want to get paid around $16,000,000 for the full transfer. The reason? If only 50% is sold a good percentage will have to go to the Fair Play school (where Falcao originally came from), while selling all his rights would mean only paying 10% to the school.

Diego Buonanotte: Atletico Madrid are rumoured to be chasing the "dwarf". Not much more is known on his situation, though it would be an extremely huge upset to see him leave at such a young age and with a very small amount of minutes in Primera.

Daniel Vega: The ex-Nueva Chicago goalkeeper is on loan, though he would like to leave due to not receiving chances. The directives will be looking to convince him to stay, though his future does not seem to clear, especially if Carrizo remains in the team next semester.

Sebastian Dominguez: Estudiantes's defender, who was one of the candidates to reinforce our back-line next sesaon, has agreed to join America (Mexico) and therefore will not be wearing red-and-white starting January.

vamos Cholo
he was playing nice offensive football at Estudiantes, recently using the Bielsa 3-3-1-3
imo one of Passarella's failures this last time was that he couldn't reinstitute the 3 man back line even though we had the players to do it..hopefully Simeone will be more successful
I can't even really try to think of a formation because I suspect many players will leave

Looking forward to this. I was always a fan of Simione. He didn't dissapoint. Seemed prepared when he came to play, and also seemed prepared as a headcoach as well. It's going to be interesting what moves he makes to re-inforce the backline, not to mention the scoring. I'd personally like to see Crespo come back, because this past season it has started to look if he is finally slowing down. I do not think he will come before the summer transfer, simply because Inter is playing so well, and have a legitimate shot at winning a CL title, not to mention the Scudetto again.

D'Alessandro is closer to River

great picture
he's suffered away from home and I hope he comes back

cavenaghi · 19-12-2007, 10:26 PM

Speaking of Cave, he was pretty good tonight against Panionios (3-2) in the UEFA Cup. Scored the first goal and made the assist on the second one. Plus, he was the captain! (well, I have to say that since Bordeaux was already qualified before that game, it was a pretty young team on the pitch tonight and torito was one of the most experienced players

).
But he was very good also during the few minutes he played last sunday against Marseille and was very close to score the winning goal in the last minute of the game.

And if I remember well, Cholo, when he was still Estudiantes' coach, wanted Cave to join his club. Would be great if he managed to bring him back this time. FUCK BURDEOS!!!

River's group for the 2008 Copa Libertadores has been drawn. We will be in Group 5, along with Universidad San Martin (Peru), Chile 2, and Mexico 2.

Aguante River!

Blanc is just crazy..he simply doesn't play Cave in the league and now he gives him the armband in the UEFA?
I think the Ligue 1 favours speedy over skilled strikers and Bordeaux seem to be doing well, so for the time being he does not change
but Cavenaghi is a genius who deserves to start every match

Personnally,I wish one Italian club could put their eyes on Cave~~

Maybe Serie A is the right league Cave born to play except Torneo~~

I tried posting the top 5 goals by River in 2007 here, but it wouldn't work.

Anyway, here's the link to the identical post on my blog:

Enjoy!

January 2, 2008 -

Fernando Belluschi: "El Rasta" will be going to Greece to finalize his transfer and sign a three year contract with Olympiakos. The deal, which will also leave River 15% of a future transfer fee, has officially been confirmed.

Sebastian Abreu: The Uruguayan will be the first reinforcement of 2008 for River, after finally resigning his contract with Tigres of Mexico. He will arrive as a free agent on loan for 18 months.

Radamel Falcao Garcia: Everything seemed to indicate that the Colombian would be transfered to Fluminense of Brazil. In fact, the suspicious deal ultimately fell, leaving River with another foward for now. There is no guarantee that he won't be sold to another club, but if he stays, he will have to fight for his spot vs. Abreu, Alexis Sanchez, Ruben, Andres Rios, Buonanotte, amongst others.

Rodrigo Archubi and Sergio Almiron: River plan on incorporating either player on loan to reinforce the left side of our midfield.

Augusto Fernandez: The youngster could be sold to Lazio or Fiorentina, though the plan is to have him remain at the club for another six months.

Julio Cesar Caceres: The defender, who performed well while at River in 2006, was mentioned as one of the possible reinforcements, but not much more than that. To my surprise, the club he seems to be linked closest to is Boca Juniors!

This transfer would be sad, not only because of his past with "la banda", but also because he really is a good defender. If the transfer goes through, we can officially call him one of the few traitors since Gabriel Cedres.
