Can see two Helsingborg players moving to the Premier League in the near future.
Jere Uronen looks a really good left back and has a brilliant left foot on him. Would be a really good signing for someone like Reading or Southampton, especially with me not rating Danny Fox.
Another player is on loan Nikola Durdic. Looks a really good strikers and is only on loan. If a side like Aston Villa, West Ham or QPR come in for him in January, could be fantastic signing.
Also, why did Alejandro Bedoya move to Sweden? Far too good for that league after his release from Rangers and should be playing in the Premier League.
One player who isn't good enough for European football is Walid Atta. The tall defender is their biggest down fall to conceding goals and should be replaced.

After seeing Fraser Forster play a couple of times, he's not good enough for England. He's better then Jack Butland at the moment but definitely not going to be as good as in the future. Joe Hart is better as is John Ruddy.
For me, if he was going to be involved with a Premier League side, the likes of Aston Villa, QPR, West Ham and Southampton would be the best for him as he doesn't offer any attributes your average Premier League keeper has.

English Premier League sides need to start taking notice of some of the Celtic player.
The likes of Newcastle, Liverpool and Everton who can attract players would be ideal moves for some players.
Kris Commons and Giorgios Samaras have got to be given another chance in England. Samaras is looking superb at the moment and Commons has got one of the best deliveries in the UK.
Gary Hooper is also worth a shot for an English side and would be a decent signing for Liverpool. They need one more attacker and spending it on the player would be a superb signing. Another player for me needing a move to a better side is Emilio Izaguirre. I don't think he's quite good enough for Arsenal and Manchester United, sides he's been linked with in the past but Newcastle are looking for full backs.
Youngsters James Forrest and Anthony Watt are good enough for teams pushing for Champions League places in England at this present time but United, Man City, Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea need to bag these two. Maybe loan them out for the season but potentially going to be two world starts.

Really looking forward to the La Liga this year, Just watched Real Madrid vs Barcelona and both looking great.
Barcelona have got some world class players, as everyone knows, but being key to the side is different. Can really see Pedro and Javier Mascherano being their two best players this year. Mascherano looks so accomplished in defence and Pedro is looking one of the best wingers in the world. Then you've got the talents of Lionel Messi and goalkeeper Victor Valdes who are both going to be equally important.
Real Madrid have a world class Xabi Alonso. The Spaniard for me is absolutely superb and will be their key player this year. Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcelo and Sami Khedira are also going to prove to be vitally important. Ronaldo offer 40 league goals, Marcelo is the best left back in the world and Khedira is the best German player at the moment. I do feel Jose Mourinho needs to cash in on Angel di Maria. The Argentina international isn't good enough for world class football and hasn't reached his full potential. The likes of Liverpool, Inter Milan, Roma, best sides in Russia and Portugal would be more suitable for the winger.

Loan deals are pointless with Gus... No matter how good they are he never plays them e.g Abdul Razak. He doesnt exactly use them to keep his Midfielders on their toes and trying hard to keep there place in the team because he already has them kind of players... P.S Sell Ryan Harley and Gary Dicker and keep Sparrow and Vincelot... there Sh1t3

Heskey been at belvoir drive today
think defence needs sorting first.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

29 Aug 2012 20:10:05
This is really annoying me now! why can't Pulis be logical about all this and get a decent striker?! Our defence is pretty solid now , midfield is average but our attack is awful. i mean crouch is good, walters aint bad.. kenwyne might be on his way out, we only scored 36 goals in 38 games last season! so we really need a good striker to freshen up the team a bit. someone like demba ba , defoe , sturridge , cisse. we need to work on the attacking part of the team not the defence.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

If your defence is solid what happen tuesday night against the mighty Swindon. COYR

LoL! Pulis will not get anywhere near these! End up with Heskey more like.

Does anyone know anything about Emmanuel Mayuka? It's on the OS... wondered if anyone knows anything about him?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Scored the winner in the Africa cup of nations final, as well as being top scorer, can play up front or on both wings (where we'll be playing him), plenty of pace, completely two footed, so basically a better version of de ridder

Lansbury- good future prospeect but at Nottingham forest
Joey Barton- horrible character 'nuff said
Hernandez- pablo hernandez is not a bad signing but if your are refering to Javier no chance

Why dont Ipswich sign Daryl Murphy on a permanent contract rather than on loan again!

I Doubt Celtic would be hard to deal with regarding a small transfer fee! In any case loan deals usually have some sort of fee involved!

He is out of contract next year so if he has a good season he will be free to go anywhere he chooses! Also if hes under contract he has a sell on value!

Southampton have completed the signing of Emmanuel Mayuka from Young Boys on a five year contract. Quality player but disappointing move because we are in dire need of defenders and a right winger, not a striker.

Believable4 Unbelievable2

He can play as a winger that's why we signed him

Disappointing if the window had closed. You would be useless in the t/f market due to a total lack of patience. Stick to FIFA.

Why does anyone read this site? Southampton just signed a guy that has never once been mentioned on here. Mayuka from Swiss club. {Ed001's Note - he wasn't mentioned in a single newspaper or on SSN either, but I bet you aren't whining on their sites are you? At least the Southampton site had someone who called that a signing was being made tonight, which is more than SSN or any newspaper did, even if he didn't know who it was going to be.}

His name had been mentioned, still a suprise!:)

We're coming closer to the Transfer deadline and after the rumours that Burnley were signing EVERY bournemouth player, we have signed 0 directly from them. Eddie is only wanting to bring in 1 more player on loan which will probably be a striker (Source: Burnley FC official website). So Bournemouth fans. Before you judge Burnley FC for signing all your players, just remember, it's a minority of personic fans who probably don't go to the matches even though their "uncle works at Turf Moor" that are making up these rumours. Have an enjoyable season, and let the rumours start again in January.

Believable1 Unbelievable2

I hear that Dean Court will be his next signing.

Braga really do need to get rid of defender Douglao if they are to do well in Europe and challenge on winning the league. Wouldn't get in most Premier League teams so the club need to get rid of the Brazilian.

After watching Udinese tonight against Braga, i is clear that Antonio Di Natale is too good for them. He should be playing for the better teams in the world and I'm unsure to why no massive club haven't come in for him.
A midfielder to impress me is Giampiero Pinzi. Despite his age, I feel he is good enough for the likes of your Man United, Real Madrid and Barcelona. Technically good enough but his age is against him.
Finally, Colombia international winger Pablo Armero looks a special talent. Its a shame we won't be seeing him in the best club competition in the world but top scouts need to have a look at him. Can play many positions and is only 25.

Southampton have agreed terms for Emmanuel Mayuka from Young Boys, apparently medical and work permit are sorted, just a few formalities to complete. Yet another forward, looks like we are going for the 'we'll score one more than you' school of football, lets hope it doesn't end in the same way it did for Blackpool

Were still going to sign defenders
