Fuck that. That's loser talk.

You must have talked alot over the last few years then my little merseyside munchkin!

 

[Shagrat]

woop we have a striker

eat that bitches

BBC Sport - Newcastle make striker Demba Ba capture from West Ham

 

[Keitanz]

Their own worst enemy, all they do us lump pressure on players around them who are not used to it and when they crumble every Liverpool fan struggles to understand why. It is simple, expectations too high for the quality of squad, set your sights lower and then when you over-achieve it is party time.

Exactly what I was saying about England the other day

 

[Keitanz]

He is supposed to be upbeat but realistic, they don't have a squad capable of winning the league at this point and need to invest £100 million this summer if they really want to get their hands on a 19th title.

100m ! I wouldn't say that much, it depends how much other teams around us improve this summer also though :/ if Man City get Messi (please) then who knows

Squad mate, you need a new CB, a new LB, two new wingers and some quality cover for CM/CB/DEF. In todays market you are talking £100 million but I think you know that after what you have spent already this year. That money would take you from 6th place to very serious contenders.

A three year contract for the guy with a degenerative knee condition. Good luck. Great striker, but not much playing time left.

There can be only One that starts the 2011/2012 thread, and it ain't Deebs.
Till we deem it time for that thread, we use this thread!

Modric wants Chelsea switch | Manchester City News, Fixtures, Results, Transfers | Sky Sports

Hopefully that'll help keep the asking price only mildly extortionate, Modric wouldn't have been my first choice to fill the gap we have, but he's hardly shit.

Modric makes everybody else better, whilst his ability to combine the craft and flair of a playmaker, with the tenacity and discipline of a midfielder, makes him a rarity. van der Vaart probably wouldn't have been as productive if he didn't have Modric behind him. £35m may be overpriced, but that's the market

 

[Lethul]

I've not had a go at anyone, as a grown man you can choose to take it anyway you like of course but all I am trying to is keep the peace and the thread on topic, I don't see that personal vendettas have a place in here and from the outside that is exactly what this looks like, almost everytime he posts someone jumps on him or even worse every mention of Villa or 'proper fans' and out come the sniper rifles. Sorry if you disagree but I feel it is totally unnecessary.

But against Liverpool its ok

 

[Lethul]

Liverpool don't seem to be too intent on improving their defence in this window, and that's by far their weakest area.

What? Didn't you read the link Keitan posted? And we have also been linked with Enrique/Clichy/insert other left back.

 

[Lethul]

I don't know, if they play well they should be able to win. I mean just look at the squad United won with last season?

 

[Shagrat]

and another Frenchman on the payroll

BBC Sport - Newcastle sign Rennes midfielder Sylvain Marveaux

We'll have a pretty decent midfield now. With Marveux, Tiote, Cabaye and Ben Arfa surging forward now he's recovered.

 

[Everz]

Cabaye .

My favourite FM player bleh. Can't recreate the Lille dreamteam of him/Hazard/Mavuba again.

 

[Everz]

BBC Sport - Ballack anger at 'farewell' plan by Germany coach Low

If I'm honest I'd say Ballack would have a massive part to play for Germany, his experience round some of the youth could teach them alot.

 

[Aoami]

M'Vila was loads better than Cabaye on `11

 

[Everz]

Depends how you played Cabaye, never as a DM, always as a supporting centre-mid to help Hazard on his surges forward.

M'Vila never got up to much on my save, Cabaye on the other hand became a don.

 

[Everz]

BBC Sport - Chelsea involved in Romelu Lukaku talks, say Anderlecht

The obvious one.. hopefully he isnt a flop tbh.

 

[Vladamir]

I reckon if this goes through then Sturridge could go back to Bolton for other season, which would give Drogs and Anelka a year to wind down IMO.

Wonder if Modric will hand in a transfer request now that Spuds have refused his sale?

Modric stated in past couple of days he will not hand in a transfer request as it is disrespectful to do so. He would like to go to bigger team though and if an offer is acceptable to all parties then he will be off.

To be honest, you look at the transfer fees going about and Rednapp is right. The offers have been a joke, it really is a £35m or so offer that will even get them to think about it, and to be quite honest I dont know who Spurs could even get to replace him with that amount of money given their position.

would be 6 strikers and no right wingers. raaar!
