Here's some true rumours (rather facts) from a very reliable source at Anfield directly linked with Liverpool's transfer activities. With the imminent completion of Barry deal, Rafa has set his sight on a number of deals that would make Liverpool a force to reckon with. Firstly, David Silva will be completing his move to Anfield for £10 million + Yossi Benayoun. Yes you heard it right. Secondly, Xabi Alonso is moving to Athletico Madrid for £10 million + Maxi Rodriguez who is highly recommended by Fernando Torres. This two transfer will be regarded as a clever piece of business by Rafa as he literally have to spend nothing ie, using £10 million from Xabi sale and use it for buying Silva and on top of that getting Maxi. That is how Rafa's going to solve a long standing problem with his sides both wing attacking options. Then thirdly, unfortunately Arbeloa is moving to Villareal due to his personal problems for £6 million. And with that £6 million Rafa's going to replace Arbi with Shaktar Donesk attacking right back Croatian star Dario Srna who can also play as an attacking right midfielder. Fifthly, Rafa's selling Pennant to Blackburn for £5 million. And then with that money he gets young attacking midfield cum forward Marko Marin from Borassia Monchengladbakh for £5 million + Voronin heading the other way. Keep your fingers crossed and see how things unfold. But one last thing I must also reveal to you guys that, Anfield Board has sanctioned all these transfers with one condition and that is simply deliver the Premier League Title or face the chop which Rafa had no other choice but to accept.
The Shola Ameobi saga is now finally almost over. He will be reunited with the manager who got the most out of him Glenn Roeder. The deal is set at an initial £1.5 million with various add ons. A fit Shola would set the championship alight. OTBC

i hardley upload rumours on this site but I just wanted to end the Ronaldo rumour, HE IS LEAVING THIS SEASON not NEXT but THIS SEASON. and we do not care because Man United have lost many great players like eric cantona, Beckham, RVN n many more and still managed to win trophies and keep up thier success so Ronaldo wouldent be a great loss to us, am not saying he is not good but actually I think his the best player in the world but we can bring in players that can provide us with what he provided us and also I do not think he would be as good as last season if he stays at Man United and I do not think he would be that good at Madrid ethier, also most of the players do not like him. anyway Man United rumours coming IN>
Berbatov (£25–£30 mil)
serio kun (£35–£45 mil)
alexis Sanchez (£10–15 million)
and another top winger but do not no who yet
and probabilties>
eto'o, Henry, benzema, nihat, Ibrahimovic

First of all, this Ronaldo saga is going on too long, if he wants to stay. tell us. If he wants to go. go. However, if he does decide to leave, United should hold out for at least £60 million + Sergio Ramos to cover for Gary Neville. To replace Ronaldo as number 7 will be a young Argentinian named Sergio Aguero. dubbed the next Diego Maradonna. He will be purchased for around £30 million – £35 million which could be the coup of the Summer. Berbatov will not be bought as his age does not represent value for money. Younger players are proving that they are good enough for the Premier League. Arsenal have Aaron Ramsey, James Wilshire and Carlos Vela all looking to be superstars for the future.

Hearts manager Csaba Laslo is becoming agitated at Tynecastle after owner Vladimir Romanov refused to sanction a move for Crystal Palace's Dougie Freedman.
Freedman has been on Hearts' radar for some time before Laslo's appointment but it has been made known that Romanov would not pay the salary Freedman required.
Romanov is looking to suppliment the Hearts squad with up to three players from Kaunas who will join before the transfer window closes.
Laslo is also getting frustrated at the amount of interfering in team selection from the owner, which is significantly more than was promised when he agreed to take the job.
Rumours are that he is on the verge of resigning should things not improve.
Pompey are waiting on Shorey and Kaboul to agree deals this week. New Pompey lad koroma will be loaned out to Norwich for experience.
