also read about barcelona being linked with javier mascherano/robinho...
mascherano was looking to leave english football last season but liverpool held their tongue as they let xabi alonso go and not him...but he looks keen to join the catalan side now as reports say that he has agreed to barca's personal terms and expects to make 120,000 euros weekly...but rafa benitez said that he does not intend to lose both alonso and mascherano so its going to be a bidding war...maybe they can do a swap deal to lure iniesta to anfield...or maybe not..expect mascherano to be in stripes in january

robinho was said that he was looking to join barcelona after a 2 year hiatus from la liga...rumors said that he was interested but manchester city insisted that he was happy in england...we'll see which club has more money..he should stay in blue i think..i see no reason for him to leave
