18 Joseph Mills - Doncaster - Loan

this is what amuses me about Southampton fans they think players will move from clubs in a highier league to them, 9th in league one, yes you have money but really. come on just because lallana, lambert and fonte and go doesn't mean your going to by 7-8 new players.(0)(2)

Well to the person who wanted to know who my source was it was my football coach who works down at southampton who said rickie lamberts been played out of position and that's why he not anywhere near the amount of goals he did last season and he also said none of the saints staff and some of the players hated pardews attitude and if you listen to the interview with nicola cortesse he says adkins has made the club feel like a better place.

And also you need to calm down a bit just because i said seeling instead of selling :O wow massive diffrence(3)(3)

In reply to the bloke that posted '3 teams claim to have the signature of austin, leeds , southampton and burnley.' don't make things up mate, leeds have never claimed to be even remotely interested in austin. all the fans know we (leeds) are not looking to sign any strikers, as stated on the leeds website there will be little activity in the transfer market in the january window.we have an embarrassment of riches up front. we may sign a couple of the defenders we have on loan on permanent deals and maybe a defensive midfielder. grayson has been told by uncle ken we have money in the coffers if he needs it, but grayson is happy with how the squad is performing. garyd MOT(3)(6)

Heard somthing similar to this going around

Sven Goran Eriksson has apparently been told he had to make a big name signing for King Power promotional reasons and to advertise Leicester City abroad. I have heard off a neutral source and someone close to Manchester United, that this is Michael Owen. It isn't allowed to be announced until 2nd January due to League Rules. Leicester City will apparently pay £20000 of his wage, like they have done with Curtis Davies and Chris Kirklandbut it will be for former player Emile Heskey(5)(21)

Watford takeover to be completed and announced by next monday.

New owners to give £15m to Malky for the january window to strengthen the squad and protect the players from being poached.

Malky interested in signing a keeper to replace Loach who will leave to go to man city for 5 million, a CB, and an experienced winger and striker. Also expected to buy Andrew Taylor at the end of the loan period.

Ellington will leave to go to Charlton for £400k(15)(19)

 

 17 Dec 2010 14:31:25
Roy Keane's Ipswich future is almost certainly over after Marcus Evans did not even mention his name in the statement he released. He focused solely on what he wants for Ipswich. It has been said that Evans now wants a manager with good experience that is still a big enough name too raise some eyebrows and also understand the values of the club.
Keane will now take a few years out of football too spend with his family as he feels he has settled in Suffolk with the possibility of retiring from managing altogether if it goes well.
Hoddle, Strachen, Hughton and Curbishley are the front runners for the job.

Despite his good form this season, Tamas Priskin looks set too leave after his attitude took a nose dive with QPR mentioned too be interested after his loan spell last year went well.

On the birght side of things though, club captain David Norris looks set too sign a new contract, 3 year extension has been mentioned, which he will sign by the end of January, regardless of who is manager.(15)(6)

Hey ed, how you doing, haven't been on since we heard the same story about O'Neill leaving Villa.

Here is some info that I've been told about. There is going to be a fair bit of in and out at Villa over the next 2 transfer windows and really dependant if they can get money now rather than in the summer to their activity during the forthcoming window.

There will be a "impact / marque" signing in the January window on a loan with option to buy. I'm told that this is Benzema. There will be a further signing in central midfield, likely to be D'Vila. An attempt to get Wayne Bridge is also likely to happen.

I'm told that the following players are available for sale and have been told
Friedel, Guzan, Beye, Dunne, Davis, Warnock, Sidwell, Carew.
Ashley Young and Gabby can be added to this list, dependant on the sale on value. Gabby may be a shock but I've heard that the management feel that his commitment is not there.(15)(20)

 

 17 Dec 2010 13:14:07
I know a few "sources" close to pool and they say Gerrard off to United!, fed up with all the goings on so he wants out(15)(72)

TO THE PERSON WHO WROTE THIS: -

What is your source?? + it is rickie not ricky!

AND THIS

what is your source? + seeling is spelt selling and properbly is spelt probably!

PRICK IS SPELT P R I C K(17)(5)

 

 17 Dec 2010 12:46:58
And Danny Evdic (i think that's his name) the Elfsborg striker for around 3-5m

Statistically one of the most efficient strikers in europe has better goal scoring records then Higuan, Benzema Eto'o. . look it up.

the only one i can think of is Dzeko is it? Wolfzberg striker isn't he?

and if you are comparing goal scoring records and putting them 3 names together, you need to slap yourself a few times. Higuain and E'too have great goal scoring records. However, I wouldn't say Benzema does. Its probably on a par with Kuyt. Not great but not bad. Actually it is bad.(10)(7)

 

 17 Dec 2010 12:18:52
Just Heard that blues (Birmingham) are front runners for Bentley from Tottenham - 8 Mill

and Danny Evdic (i think that's his name) the Elfsborg striker for around 3-5m

Statistically one of the most efficient strikers in europe has better goal scoring records then Higuan, Benzema Eto'o. . look it up.

hopefully! and also hear rumours about a young belgian lad too. not Hazard. . but i'd put money on him going to arsenal - he rejected chelsea in the summer for 12m

Also Names mentioned for Blues are Nathaniel Clyne and Lewis McGugan and a winger from southampton who has scored plenty this term - can't remember his name tho. . Maybe Adam Lallana? or the other one not sure lol

:)(12)(16)

 

 17 Dec 2010 12:19:04
Loan signings for David Moyes (unless sales occur) in the January window which will be as follows:

LANDON DONOVAN - same as last year - til end of March.

NICOLAS BENDTNER - loan deal with view to perm £7m move in the Summer

DAVID BENTLEY - only problem is permanent fee if loan proves successful. Spurs want £10m, Everton offering £6m.

MAPHEAD LESCOTT loan with a view to permanent £9m deal in the Summer. Moyes is willing to forgive and forget if Lescott is willing. Says he has nothing to apologise for, for moving to a club offering £££.

STEPHEN IRELAND - loan with view to £6.5m deal.

Got this from someone who represents one of the everton fanzines, i played for that team a good 10 years ago and i asked him for any gossip and this was all he could tell me. I have a feeling he knows something else but he wouldn't tell me any more! Grrr

Holloway wouldn't go to blackburn, that vacant job is nothing but a side step in his career - with the team he is building at blackpool, and the spirit around the place, then I see him as a long term manager at the club. Also if he did leave for another job, he would definately not leave for a similar club on a similar level.

I don't see Holloway being interested in the job either, but you can hardly call the two clubs as being 'at a similar level', at least not in the last 50 years.

Though Blackpool are almost unknown in India, whereas Blackburn are massive there and have been for almost a week.(20)(13)

I like blackpool mate an think they have done well but blackburn imo are a way bigger club than them. They might be in similar league positions but it would defiantly be a step up for him(15)(18)
