Winners Thus Far

David Silva of Spain..FIFA World Cup 2010 Semi Final..Germany v Spain..7th July, 2010. I've been talking a lot with Joseph, my podcast partner, about the transfer market. For those who aren't familiar and/or are new to European soccer, the transfer market is a window for a couple months between seasons where teams can sell and buy players. There is also another transfer window, but it's shorter and happens in the middle of the season.


So Joseph and I did a podcast episode about the recent goings on about the current transfer window. It's been pretty active so far, especially with the World Cup being over. As you see in baseball in the states, there are teams that just have boat-loads of money and can buy whoever they want; i.e. Manchester City, Chelsea FC, Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Inter Milan.
