-----------------------------------
'Arry has held talks with Campbell, for whom Tony Adams is a major draw. Campbell is aware of the need to take a major pay cut if he goes to France. Do Pompey need a guy who wants leave English football, but might stay due to cash flow?? Hoping 'Arry steers a wide berth around this one.
Pompey are still confident re Distin, but the wages are eye watering at Pompey's level. If £23K/PW was such a deal breaker for Dellassandro, why throw £40K PW at above average centre halves??
Dudek is a possibility on a season's loan.
Huub

Rafa Benitez will finally sign his fourth striker this week when he signs Ronaldo from real madrid in a cut price deal. Fabio Capello wants to get rid of two strikers so he can bring in carlos tevez and zlatan ibrahimovic. Baptista is going too and ronaldo could cost as little as 5 million. Liverpool have also enquired about Aron lennon but were told that the players going nowhere. He could now bid again for daniel Alves. Rafa still admires stelios of bolton and zolten gera has been mentioned as a surprise target.
With the £10MILL Man Utd gained from the sale of Van Nistelrooy SAF wil attempt to sign the next generation of footballing talent from over-seas. Brazilian Kerlon and Argentinian Gago will come in in £5.7 MILL and £4MILL respectively. For all the brainlessly idol people who claim Man Utd will change from there 4-4-2 formation to anything else. They tried that and if failed badly. A £17MILL bid for Luca Toni is also on for SAF
These following transfers will happen soon. I know this as my brother works as a journalist at sky sports. West Ham will sign thomas graveson, not aldo dusher. Feyenord have priced dirk kuyt out of a move to liverpool but he could go to man u as a replacement for van nistelrooy. Liverpool will sign daniel Alves.Jermaine defoe, sol campell, hattem trabelsi and David Trezuguet will have medicals at newcastle on friday. Real Madrid have bid 42 million for jose reyes and ashley cole.
Liverpool will get Torres in January. Personnaly i think he is slightly over-rated, but still good but for the right money.
I have no inside info just commonsense, martin jol will sell if he gets a decent offer andy reid, wayne rout, callum davenport and danny murphy, surplus to requirements. defoe goin no way only hav 3 strikers and if he was definately not for 8 mil, keep dreaming. looking to bring in centre back (?), striker(?), right back (chimponda), 2 left sided players(Ben arfa, Denilson, Petrov).
Newcastle are interested in Ibrahimovic, Toni, Tavano and Kuyt. Although Ibrahimovic has his heart set on AC Milan and Toni will be signed by Inter next week. Moreover, Newcastle will beat Liverpool to Kuyt because they can offer more money and as is the case usually Liverpool won't get involved in a bidding war. They may also get Tavano if Barcelona cool their interest.
