Thoughts?

I love the monster, but no holding midfielder is irreplaceable.

Who'd go for that deal if it was on the table? Or other cash plus player deals from Barca?

(or from Real Madrid - Lassana Diarra + £15M = Mascherano?)

best the devil you know... I'd still stick to having Masc than gamble on one of the above...

I think he will be hard to replace.
The man is everywhere and even did alright when asked to play right back earlier this season.

Very true, but I'm worried with his actual agent saying he'd be open to Barca that he might want out.

Heard on the grapevine that his Mrs isn't settled either.

Could affect focus/team morale etc.

Nah. On the evidence of last season, I would keep together a team that now knows each others style and are working well together rather than adding a new midfielder and having to wait until they adjust. The Scum are winning cause they keep the majority of their tema intact from season to season. If anyone is replaced it is for someone better, not for money.

Masch is not for sale according to Rafa - not even 50 mill would see him sold!!

Mascherano and his agent have said 2 or 3 times now that he wants to leave and if its a choice of mascherano leaving or xabi alonso leaving then hands down mascherano would be my choice for the player to leave .

1 million % agree

Mascherano has said nothing, the guy doing all the talking isn't even his agent, he's someone who likes to get players to move clubs so that he can take a percentage.

A leech basically.

thats an agent
