Any credance to the Ribery rumours? Is he still worth the £30m we would undoubtedly have to spend to get him?

Also starting to feel Modric not coming to us could turn out to be a good thing if it means Mceachran will get more chances in the first team.

Ballotelli to spurs is a rumour, would be interesting if true.

A rumour based on his profile on the Man City site being unavailable, which is now working again. Come on, clearly typical deadline day nonsense.

Di Canio is scum. Glad we smashed them yesterday. Looks like we're not intending to spend any of the oxlade-chamberlain money, which is a shame because I'd hav liked to have seen a bit of proven championship experience bought in, especially at centre back and up top

Sounds like bollocks, he signed a contract not long ago anyway.

 

[eksdee]

So did Modric.

 

[megadave]

Bayern are a massive rich club though. Tottenham are not.

 

[eksdee]

Stop ruining my dreams of ridiculous signings on deadline day.

 

[megadave]

don't worry mate, we'll make a ridiculous signing of Perreira. 25m'ish for a squad player in a position we're fully stocked for

you want a midfeilder? we gots plenty

 

[eksdee]

HUZZAH. Unless the plan is to play Perreira as a left winger, play Mata behind the striker and Sturridge on the right. 4-2-3-1 perhaps with Ramires and Lampard as the two. Mata can play anywhere across that three also. Who knows. One thing is for certain, we have plenty of strikers. I bet we still try and sign another couple just to be safe though.

 

[caLLous]

Hah, random tweet:

Saw a huge truck leave Spurs' ground on Sky Sports News. Suspect that Villa have sedated Tom Huddlestone and are shipping him to Villa Park.

 

[Aoami]

Owen Hargreaves' move to Manchester City has broken down amid another injury scare.

He fell out of the transfer window.

Perreira deal off according to the beeb

Liverpool have been linked with Milner Hazard and Benayoun



WHY

(fairly sure only the benayoun one is legit tho)

 

[megadave]

Georgie Thompson looking especially fine today

 

[Ch3tan]

Forlan has joined inter. Awesomeness!

 

[Lethul]

Poulsen seals French move - Liverpool FC

Jesus walks on water.
But Comolli managed to convince them to buy Poulsen.

Comolli > Jesus

 

[megadave]

A freshly promoted Ligue 1 club, lol.

 

[Keitanz]

2 midfielders gone now... I hope meireles doesn't go today :<

 

[Shagrat]

BBC Sport - Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole joins Lille on loan

Might do him a bit of good. Always think more English players should get experience of continental league football.

 

[megadave]

man city have really made a welcome to manchester hargreaves billboard? do they not know where tevez and hargreaves came from? :|

 

[soze]

Per Mertesacker set to join Arsenal

And that makes 3 pending FA approval.

I think that's the point.

(Suggesting they're the only 'real' Manchester club; Man Utd fans all southerners blablabla.)

 

[megadave]

as evidenced by their MASSIVE turn out for their fa cup parade xD

 

[eksdee]

Hahahaha. All Balotelli's fault.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Lansbury on loan to West Ham.

 

[Everz]

A freshly promoted Ligue 1 club, lol.

One of the richest in the world.

 

[Everz]

No sign of a left back yet. Fuck.

 

[Corran]

Arteta on the way to Arsenal? oO
Certainly the guy deserves to be at a bigger club, be nice for him to get some champions league action. Always shone in that Everton squad and they probably got no chance of regaining that quality

 

[megadave]

take one of ours plz xD

In b4 Barca try to sign him just so they can say they completely control the Spain center mid position!
