Man united in january. 3 brazilian players will be joining between the next two transfer windows. They are all playin in the under twenties final right now.
Following the press conference at St.Andrews this week: some hot info has made its way out. Carson Yeung has allowed 'up to' £40m for players + wages. The big thing Blues fans must remeber is that £20k per week brings a player £1m per year approx. This must be taken into account for transfers. The £40m is apparently to cover player fees and any players signed wages up to the next transfer window. The actual spend will be lower than many expect for this reason. The hot news is McLiesh' shortlist. Apparently, Yeung has said he wants two high profule players to boost media image and public face of the club. The players on the shortlist were: Sol Campbell (Free + £40k pw = £750k), Emile Heskey (£4m + £50k pw = £5.25m), Mauro Zarate (£8m + £40k pw = £8.75m), Patrick Viera (Free + £80k pw = £1.5m) – these are the shortlist of key targets. He is also looking at: Gareth Bale (£3m), Kris Boyd (£3m), Park Ji Sung (£6m), Steven Taylor (£5m), Marco Borriello (£7M), Christophe Metzelder (£5m), Adam Johnson (£4m) – this was Big Ecks first list of priority signings. As you can imagine, all of these players will command in excess of £30k pw so don't expect all to sign as wages will take up a chunk of the £40m. Additioanlly, expect to see in influx of Chinese players and link ups with lower division/european clubs as Yeung looks to assist the development of the game in China. Exciting times at St.Andrews. KEEP RIGHT ON
Falkirk's Darren Barr will head south to join Cardiff City in January, linking up with his Scotland team–mates Kevin McNaughton and Gavin Rae.
Dave Jones has been impressed by Barr, who can play as a central defender or right–back, and is keen to sign the defender who has refused to sign a new deal at Falkirk Stadium. Barr is said to be keen on such a move if it can boost his International status.
Moving out of Cardiff will be defender Mark Hudson, who will sign for Motherwell after failing to win over the Cardiff crowd.

YELLOW FEATHER here, reporting from London Colney. Its about time for all the rumours to start about Wenger off to Madrid, Cesc to Barca and every other Arsenal player to somewhere else on the continent, so come on ladies. were bored of those, so don't bother. On a similar note, Terry Henry will not be joining Man City, Liverpool, Tottenham or any other EPL club in January, the summer or anytime, if he does return to the Premiership, it will be with the Gunners, we all know that, he has said that, so again, don't bother posting them. On to some rumours i have heard at Colney, AW is using his scouting network to find him anothe top quality centre back, under the age of 27. A young serbian and a croatian have been monitored closely, but i didn't get there names as it was all foreign to me. Senderos to go in January, where i don't know or indeed care and Eboue to go in January/Summer to Spain for £5M. AW will increase his young Guns in January with 2 or 3 more 16, 17 or 18 year olds coming to the Grove and only 1 major name coming in, either in January ( if the price is right ) or the summer, that player is none other than. FRANK RIBERY a deal is said to be ongoing with AW offering players plus cash to the Germans for Ribery's signature, i think one player offered is to be Rosicky who AW does not think has returned to fitness quick enough and maybe a liability in the future. Well that's all for now, i got to cut the grass.. Yellow Feather out.
Rumour has it Spurs might actually play with two centre backs. Thanks to the President of Honduoras, Thud will be needed in midfield.
A very reliable source has just informed me that a deal has been struck between the Gills and Blackpool for Simeon Jackson to go on loan at the seaside, with a 1 million price tag agreed in Jan. Speaking to a Blackpool fan I know they can not believe that their chairman would spend this sum and I was hoping this wasn't true, but this source has never been wrong before and does know people within the Gills set up. Deal to be announced in next couple of weeks
Andy Reid grabbed Trappatoni by the throat when he took his guitar. This is the real reason he is not getin a look in with Ireland. I have an eye witness!!
Steven Defour, Liege's captain to sign for Man utd in January as a direct replacement for Scholes assuming he has fully recovered from his current injury.
