There
is a massive sporting event being held in Brazil right now, the biggest
sporting event in the world. But starting on Tuesday, the real spectacle
begins: The mercato. The transfer market makes teams and breaks hearts, but the
sharing of rumors is more of a bloodsport amongst fans. Still we decided to
brave the waters with some good old fashioned mercato speculation. We also
discussed the future of Italian football and oh, yeah, the World Cup.

| A great way to kick off the mercato. Ciao, Traoré. |
