I am the person who wrote about the Ayala and Gerrard incident think of it what you like at 1st i didn't believe this but as somebody else backed me up saying his friend seen sumthink happen and it wernt recently it happend around 3 weeks ago and don't you think it all links in were as gerrard is now considerin his future at liverpool quoted in all the papers because of his disputes between him and rafa I'm not making stupid rumours i love liverpool football club and personally don't think the club will b the same without Gerrard. Lets hope we can have a better season
p.s thanks for backing me up for whoever you are because it is fully true

Kaka to Man United for £40 million. What planet are you living on? Tell you what, when you leave school, you go buy a house for £350k and I'll buy it off you the following year for £200k. If this is your idea of good business you are not going to make it in the real world my friend.
Real Madrid's business model is based around big name signings and shirt sales. They are not going to let Kaka go for a cut down price. In fact they are not going to let Kaka go at all.
Fabregas won't leave, no I am not his milkman. But he is on a long contract and Arsenal doesn't want to sell. For Arsenal transfers I don't hold up much hope of Wenger dipping into his pocket.

Excluisve sky sports says Andrew Ellis to meet david murray in edinburgh on tuesday and bid looks likely after meeting take that to person called walter blue and white army

How stupid are all you 'let's make rumours about gerrard' people. Surely I'm not the only person who knows that it wasn't gerrard who punched ayala it was riera. I knew tgis about 2 months ago hence riera criticising the club, wanting to leave. I didn't know which player he punched until now I jus knew it was a unknown youth player.
Now about this takeover business, we aren't going to get a stupid owner who is willing to throw away his money an we should be expecting transfers to be funded by player sales or p/ex such as masch because we won't be taken over until after the transfer window.
YNWA!

United to sign no one and won't finish top four next year. Can anyone else see a leeds united happening
21 May 2010 21:59:45
Hi 007 ––
"Roy, I must have missed your challenge. Could you repeat it?"
I asked you which QIA division is bidding? and if you knew why they had to raise 7.5b through bonds in the last couple of months (the second question is genuine honest, many of us curious ;they are not saying much are they –– ahh and I also asked if they've given up on EADS –
I also thought HARRODS was the last British venture for the year and the focus will be more on asia.
"The fact that you did not mention BarCap just proves that you are not privy to any takeover talks"
Not sure what you mean, but yes obviously I am not privy to any take over talks , if I was I won't risk my job (AND POSSIBLY NEVER ABLE TO GET A JOB IN THE SECTOR AGAIN) by typing anything on the matter . But as you would know its the most popular topic between football followers in the city, with all the hush hush surrounding it makes it all the more gossipy .
Anyway my information about QIA/DIC or Shiek Mohammed not being involved is from the middle east I was born in Doha and my dad works for DIAR , I call him every day hoping he can confirm what you've been saying .he has n't yet .story like this can stay a secret here , but can't see it been kept hidden over there . not this long any way.

To the donkey who put that Ipswich Town has no money and will have to sell there best players your obviously a Norwich stty fan and have nothing good to say about your own team!! Well wot i can tell you Sonny Jim is that we have 12 million to spend, Keane has admitted that he made some mistakes in the transfer market last season but has the full backing of Marcus Evans and has been told to spend and get the players we need to challenge for the tiltle and turn all them draws into wins, So get you facts right before bubbling rubbish!!
I do have a little bit of transfer rumours for all you Tractorboys out there we are hot on the heels of Gary Hooper and if we miss out on him then the likes of Marcus Tudgay, George Boyd and Simeon Jaskson are being mentioned all i know is we need a 25 a season goal scorer and we will be laughing.
In Keane We Trust

Man city will offer 30 million for milner and it will be accepted by villa, ireland and wrightphillips could move as 13 million of the transfer fee.milner will reject city tho as he has his sights on chelsea who will nt match citys 30 bt will offer upto 25 mil which villa will sell because milner will push the move as he would jump at the chance of moving to the champions.he openly admitted in an interview that he feels hes ready to win silverware.mancienne coul join as part of the deal.
after utd will be ousted in any attempts to get milner due too the hefty tag of 25 plus most likly a player, ferguson will go all out in his attempt to get rodwell.17 million will be enough to get his signature.lately tho chelsea have also shown interest in the young englishman.

To the numpty who said arsene is in france–go to arsenal.com and you will see the video of him at the emirates with chamakh.
it is visible that arsene looks stressed from the video. all the speculation is taking its toll.
however i been informed by a 'friend', who works in the pr office at the emirates that:
cesc is staying for atleast another 2years.
an offer for gourcuff will be going in for 17.5million.
buffons agent will arrive next week to discuss personal terms
an offer for kjaer for £8million was rejected and so was an offer for mertsecker for £10million
an agreement is in place with ajax to bring luis suarez with eduardo going the other way plus £19million
arsene will spend big just to keep cesc happy.the board have increased arsenals budget by another £20million giving arsenal £65million to spend.this happened this week after the cesc revelations.
the biggest names to leave are:gallas, fabianski(loan), vela(loan)eduardo(swap), denilson, silvestre and merida
thats all folks
will keep you updated

Fabregas will not be leaving arsenal in in low cash + sawp deal. the only players wenger would be keen on are: Yaya Toure and Martin Caceres.
Toure has confirmed he does not want to leave.
Caceres, juventus have taken the option to buy him
All the crap about a swap involving ibrah needs to stop. For one we have just signed a striker and secondly his wages are higher than anybodys in Barcas squad, and there is no way wenger would pay it.
if fabregas stays i'd be surprised if a bid went in for gourcuff, but expect bids for a keeper and 2 cbs

Luton may re–sign former fan favourite Adam Boyd to replace Liam Hatch.

LFC:
Just want to remind people that we haven't been taken over yet, we don't know who the manager is, and we don't even know if we have a transfer budget yet.
Can we please keep transfer rumours real and not drift into the world of Championship Manager or Fantasy Football.
Now a fact about Jonjo Shelvey. I can't release too many details but he has signed on a HUGE contract. He is being paid an offensive amount of money per week. No wonder we're losing money if we pay 17 year olds what we're paying him.
21 May 2010 21:01:23
I did and I make no apologies for it my dear friend, the fact is that I've been on the golf course(which I lost, but gained a business deal:) and whilst in the club house my phone which I've been typing on so forgive my errors, because the keys are so bloody small:).
Right first things first.
There is no life on mars, there is no currency, no civilization etc so I guarentee that there is NO billionaire Martian interest because they don't exist!
The Chinese interest I've heard, would actually get loans secured against the club like g&h did, so that would be a nono IMO.
The Russian, and the american I have no knowledge of because they have not been named to everyone, only a very few people actually know their identities and they are keeping quiet, which given the amount of money they stand to make from keeping their clients wishes secure etc is good practice..
The kuwaiti..we all know who he is, but few have actually known that his interest in developements etc is still there.
Qia
Shiek Mohammed
And the interest from Saudi
Shiek Mohammed from what I've learnt is after us big time! He's annoyed with parry and moores from the last time.but he's even more so annoyed with the two desparados that beat him, but this is actually his trump card, because who do you think they were after from the very begining?
Broughton was brought in, has strong links to racing.
Amanda stavely is involved on behalf of barcap.
Barcap was bailed out by the middle east last year.
Jose mourinho said last year that he was approached by shiek Mohammed to take charge of lfc if he took control of the ownership.
Graham hunter made those comments about jose a few days ago..
Enjoy putting the puzzle together, but remember you draw your own conclusions, but all this is clear to me that shiek Mohammed is making all the moves and the right noises

My uncle is Sean McAuley, Sheffield Wednesday Academy Manager – believe it or not, I don't really care. Anyway, this is what he told me and my dad earlier on:
Alan Irvine is no idiot – he knows that Wednesday need big changes and isn't scared to make them. He's talking with Ipswich over striker Pablo Counago, with Marcus Tudgay POSSIBLY going the other way +£500,000 to Wednesday. That is only a possibility that Wednesday are exploring. Tommy Spurr may be leaving for Barnsley, but the side from S6 aren't going to let him go on the cheap; AI wants at least £2,000,000 for him and I very much doubt Barnsley can pay that – still, you never know. Another rumour is that Hartlepool's Adam Boyd could be heading down to Yorkshire – he is tried and tested at this level and would be an alright signing. If Wednesday fail to get Counago, they will go for a double–swoop with Northampton Town's Adebayo Akinfenwa joining on a free, plus Shaun Harrad from Burton Albion. They bagged a fair–few between them last season and AI rates them well. One definite rumour that I can quash is Lee Grant leaving Hillsborough – he has no desire at all to play anywhere else, he is worshipped by the Hillsborough faithful and is deemed pretty–much god – he's also on excellent wages and is a decent bloke, not wanting to leave a club that has served him well in the lurch.
Simply speculation, though it can be believed a bit more than a lot of rubbish that's posted on here.
21 May 2010 20:46:17
I could have posted about DIC falling way behind in the race due to their restructuring of debt but I found that to be MINOR news. DIC last month urged lenders of Almatis (a DIC company) not to look at bankruptcy as DIC's debt restructuring proposal should be completed before the end of May. That would make DIC a weaker option (if they were an option, buy they are not). Mukesh Ambani (India) recently won a court battle against his brother potentially worth around $16 billion. That has added some weight to his bid. But once again, this is not major news in my opinion (and it has already been documented). I shall post as and when I receive something worth talking about.

Liverpool fc
mascherano is defintely leaving.
we have 3 choices:
swap for higuain and 10mill
swap for higuain and vaart
or
mascherano+10mill for higuain and diarra.
liverpool will sign mata in a swap deal with riera, but depending if we sign diarra in the mascherano deal it could be riera + 10mill for mata or riera + 20mill for ever banega and mata.
also if depending if we sign vaart or not then we are going to sign ireland.
we will not be signing turan as rafa prefers mata and we don't have the money to sign both, but we could sign either martin petrov or joe cole.

IN REPLY TO: Sorry to say QIA were never involved in a bid for Liverpool , If you follow this site you would have noticed james–007 stopped posting rubbish when I challenged his QIA info.
And nor DIC/or anyone from Dubia is in the picture, the prince of sharjah have made inquiries (the one fronted by the syrian business man) I am not sure if his interest faded or there is some secret negotiations taking place . I heard from people in the city (Banks), there are bidders from china and the USA.
For the current americans to make any profit they'll need to sell around the 500m mark, anything less than that will leaves them with nothing after they've paid the total debts of the various KOP companies they own.The new owners will not inherit any existing debts , but may start some of their own to finance the deal which more than likley to be completed after the new season have started.
Roy"
Roy, I must have missed your challenge. Could you repeat it?
Also, I haven't posted on here for a few days due to no MAJOR developments. I ONLY post when there is NEW news. Nobody in your so called city banks has genuine info unless they are at BarCap. The fact that you did not mention BarCap just proves that you are not privy to any takeover talks. There is NOBODY from China in the race at the moment. So Roy, what QIA info did you challenge me on?

21 May 2010 20:17:29
Blair mayne, the players are kept unaware of the ownership scenario because the potential owners do not want to made public just yet, as my namesake has already said when appointed it would be done without the media knowingthis is not only to stop the potential owners from having a public bidding war but believe it or not, it's to stop Liverpool from putting our laundry out in public, something which the current manager lives to do.
Basically, our Arabic friends do not like that sort if mentality, and believe me if rafa does stay on their sayso it's only going to be short term, and I know that he has been told this himself, hence his latest statements, because he wants to leave under the illussion that he was forced out, which in all honesty is a load of cobblers.
To the guy saying about James 007 I cannot comment on why he has not responded to you but I have it from a good contact that the Qatar interest is ctually quite real, but they do face stiff competition from shiek Mohammed, plus their are a few other parties saying they want to be kept informed of developements..
So to recap the following is a list of who we are looking at and who are being kept informed.
Shiek Mohammed
Qia
A Saudi party with links to royalty( can't speculate on who, because it wouldn't be accurate at the momment, sorry I'll find out in a few days)
There is a Kuwaiti being informed.
A Chinese investment firm in the loop
An American businessman who by all accounts has been interested in the developements from day one..
And also a Russian.
But again I stress that at the momment the top two possibly three are the main players, but shiek Mohammed us actually making all the right noises about us.
In a few days I've got a meeting with a few assoiciates, one of who is very friendly to amanda, who as we all know is good friends with the Qatar interest but more importantly shiek Mohammed, and whilst I've talked to her a few times and tried to find directly from her, I have to admit she's the ultimate professional and won't give in her view "idle gossip", but thankfully a few of her workmates are a lot less rigid in their approach, especially in the club house after a few drinks..
But all I can say is that things to us in the "outside world" ie fans, seem to be taking a long time but trust me these things have been moving steadily for a while, and at the momment they have actually progressed to a higher level, but please remember why it's taking so long, the "current" owners have inflicted a hell of a lot of damage on the club, and sadly due diligence is a very long process when done properly, not like when those two took over I may hasten to add..
But I have it from a dear friend that the attiitude of the shiek is very positive
That all I know at the momment, but I will post any relevant info as soon as I hear it, but please remember that those who give other info may be hearing from the other interested parties, so try to analyse the plausible from the silly.

I was at the Chelsea celebrity bash following their Prem League victory. Cesc was there as well and we had a little talk about this and that. He said he was definitely staying at Arsenal next season. More, he said quite a few players are on their way in. no names, but apparently one or two from the Spanish World Cup squad! blink blink Make what you want from this, but Arsenal will be a force to reckon with in 2010/11!
BTW, I'm an Arsenal fan, my girlfriend is a friend of Drogba hence my presence at the bash. love and football or perhaps a bit of both?!

I'm a liverpool fan and fact just beause a player says A Turan says he would like to sign for us don't mean we want to sign him , looks like his of to spurs but from want i read lfc never made a move for him good player but not a out and out winger like we need .

Rafael Benitez was targeting Joe Cole but the player has decided to stay at Chelsea and fight for his place, these are Rafa's real 100% targets for this summer Wayne Hennessey, Milan Jovanovic, Gary Cahill, Stephen Ireland, Carlton Cole and Jesus Navas{Rafa's no.1 target} and Aleksandar Kolarov, he is also targeting one of either Javi Martinez or Ever Banega as potential replacements for Javier Mascherano if the player does leave.I expect Albert Riera, Diego Cavalieri, Sotiris Krygiakos, Phillipe Degen, Fabio Aurelio and unfortunatley Yossi Benayoun all to be leaving mersyside and there are a couple who Rafa wants to keep but might go such as Martin Skrtel, Albero Aquilani, Ryan Babel and Javier Mascherano although I suspect most if not all of these to stay.Gerrard is staying until the end of his career contrary to reports and I think Nando will stay for at least one more year to help the club get back on track.I have not just made these up like some people on this site these are actual rumours and realistically I can see a lot of these deal's happening the Jesus Navas one and Aleksandar Kolarov are the ones that Liverpool might be priced out of but if certain players go there will be enough money, also a number of squad and loan players are leaving Nemeth, Plessis, San Jose, El Zhar, Itandje etc.

Manchester United
––––––––––––––––––
Kaka:£40million
(buy him buy him now) United are sniffing menacingly around Kaka, according to Spanish sports daily AS. The Real Madrid star attracted plenty of criticism during an injury–hit first season in La Liga, and Real are contemplating taking £40million for the Brazilian playmaker.
Of all the rumours that are flying around this is the one that i hope actually has some truth to it!
It also seems likely in my view my reason being that with Uniteds late bid for Villa of £35million as reported by Valencia President, that it is around that amount of money that SAF is willing to spend on a big player this summer! Also with SAF confirming that Berbatov will not be sold this summer expect a midfielder more than a striker to come to united!!
Rumoured big name Strikers:
Benzema(Looks dead set on staying at Real Madrid to prove himself)
Ibrahimovich(Barca have said he is not premier league bound)
Arguero( Atletico have said he is not for sale at any price and that he will be still there next season)
Rumoured big name Midfielders:
Kaka £40million
Di Maria £40million
David Silva £25million

Sorry to say QIA were never involved in a bid for Liverpool , If you follow this site you would have noticed james–007 stopped posting rubbish when I challenged his QIA info.
And nor DIC/or anyone from Dubia is in the picture, the prince of sharjah have made inquiries (the one fronted by the syrian business man) I am not sure if his interest faded or there is some secret negotiations taking place . I heard from people in the city (Banks), there are bidders from china and the USA.
For the current americans to make any profit they'll need to sell around the 500m mark, anything less than that will leaves them with nothing after they've paid the total debts of the various KOP companies they own.The new owners will not inherit any existing debts , but may start some of their own to finance the deal which more than likley to be completed after the new season have started.

21 May 2010 18:28:35
Really happy that Atletico Madrid have told Man Utd to GO AWAY..even more so because Jovetic plays for Fiorentina.
More likely that Liverpool will do a swap deal offering Aquilani
Quote:
To my friend who said that Andres Iniesta is tying up a deal to go to Manchester United. I know about the £20mil bid but was it accepted? Manchester are planning a £20mil bid for a young boy named Stefan Jovetic after they were told to GO AWAY by Atletico Madrid and that is the truth, with some cheese on it. I will have more news just now.

After striker Jamie Mackie left Plymouth Argyle to join QPR , Plymouth are looking to sign another Exeter city player. Exeter talisman Ryan Harley is the subject of a 250,000 bid from Argyle. Exeter received around 50,000 from the sale of Mackie and will be hoping to keep hold of their star asset , but may sell with a bid of 250,000. I expect the new manager to be Paul Jewell . If this is the case , Jewell will look to bring in Gary Teale , a player he has worked with at Derby County and Wigan (plus he had a loan spell with Argyle a few seasons back). Other targets include Dagenham duo Danny Green and Josh Scott , former Leeds goalkeeper Casper Ankergran and maybe a cheeky bid to bring Nathan Ellington to Home Park (yet again the Jewell connection). Plymouth are also looking at signing a few young premier league stars aswell . Man utd youngsters David Gray and Corry Evans. Tottenham youngster John Bostock is reported a target for Argyle.

Arda Turan is going to Tottenham this summer but not because he wants CL football, he has stated he is a Liverpool fan and would love to play for them regardless of whether or not they are in the CL but Rafael Benitez has gone off the player a bit I don't know why because he is a greta player but Tottenham are the only team who have bid for Arda Turan so unfortunatley for him he does not have the option of playing for the club he loves but he will be a great signing for Tottenham and an absolute bargain £5million +Giovanni Dos Santos.

Liverpool haven't been training for two weeks ! Gerrar has been in Austria for the past few days with the England squad. If there was a fight one of them would have been banned for the remaining games, but gerrard started at hull and ayala was on the bench. So please shut up.

Despite a disappointing campaign this term from Bordeaux compared with the previous season where the Ligue 1 side clinched the French title, Gourcuff has been the inspiration behind their success forming an impressive forward partnership with Moroccan frontman Marouane Chamakh. The departure of Chamakh to Arsenal on a free transfer, plus the reports in France suggesting manager Laurent Blanc is set to succeed French manager Raymond Domenech after the World Cup have sparked doubts over the future of the talented 23–year–old playmaker. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger could be tempted to re–kindle the partnership that served Bordeaux so well. I have a very good insider who informed me that this is a high chance of happening before wednesday of next week. Even if cesc stays it will still happen because arsene knows cesc will leave one day and wants someone there in the team already. Trust me guys this will happen. At the moment arsene is in france sorting a deal out before man city come bidding stupid money there is a £17.65 million buy out clause in his contract so arsene has come up with the money now just sorting wages out.

I understand that Bristol Rovers striker Andy Williams is set to join Yeovil Town subject to completing a medical.
I'm lead to believe he has agreed a 2 year deal whereas at Rovers he was only offered a 1 year deal. The fact Rovers want to bring in 2–3 strikers over the Summer also contributed to his decision to move on.

I am a Newcastle fan. and I can tell you that Chris Hughton will NOT be letting anyone leave untill after pre–season. all 3 goalkeepers ( Harper, Krul, Forster ) will play for Newcastle in Pre–season. Forster will start in goal in the friendly against Carlise and Norwich and if he impresses Hughton he could be given the number 1 shirt next season as both Krul and Forster want it. As for him signing for 1–3million. Arsenal and Spurs are interested in him and Newcastle won't sell for nothing less then 9million. Keep who you want to sign to yourself please.

There is absolutley no chance of Andres Iniesta coming to England this Summer he is adored over in Catalonia and many of the players rate him believe it or not as high as Messi and United would have to pay at least double the £20million fee mentioned if the player ever does come to England.Now onto reality Manchester United are set to make a £24million move for James Milner although they face stiff competition from there City rivals.Alberto Aquilani may be on his way back to Italy after a short spell on Merseyside as Rafa feels he is too brittel but having seen glimpses of what he can do towards the end of the season I think this guy could be a really good player for Liverpool next year if he stays.Juventus had a £10million bid rejected already but are willing to pay up to £14million which Rafa will accept as he badly needs to raise funds to rebuild his lacklustre squad he is also looking to offload Albert Riera to Stuttgart this week in a £7million deal and while the two Manchester sides battle it out for the signature of James Milner Rafa is going to bid £8million for Stephen Ireland however I expect this to be rejected and Liverpool will probably have to pay between £10–12million.

Fabregas will leave arsenal in the next 2 weeks, for about £45m. arsene will then sign Gourcuff(£17.5m buyout clause), Mertesacker(£15m) and Chamakh(free), and a £5m "deposit" on Eden Hazard for next season, with the remaining £12m paid next summer.
wenger will hold out til January before deciding whether he wants a new keeper, as he wants to give Almunia one last chance.
leaving will be Cesc, Gallas Silvestre Senderos(frees), Traore(£3m), Eduardo(£8m) and some youngsters on loan, including Vela, Fabianski and Wilshere.

A while back there was rumours of a bust up between rafa and gerrard.and the rafa spin machine sprung into action to dismiss it and say that everything was fine.
Now as the season has finished expect the truth to be told soon, once he moves gerrard will sell the story to a tabloid paper with some revelations of his views on rafa and what has happened.
Takeover to be completed soon, expect shiek Mohammed to make a fresh bid soon
yes the reason gearrd is thinking about leaving it because he was in traning and went in hard on daniel ayala so they had a little argument he then done it again and now word of a lie ayala punched him so rafa blamed gerrard and gerrard shouted at him and said "fck of you fat Basrd" and left training ealry
You ask why i know this i know somebody who is friend with benayoun well there daughters go to the same school and he always talk with benyoun has his number and has showed me pics of there daughters together so i know he is telling the truth and benayon told him of this and he also says there arent many players in the squad that like rafa because they have lost trust in him!!

Believe what you want Blair, I do a lot of work with various financial parties and network with quite a few people who are involved.
The fact that they are involved is real.
But if you choose to believe the one poster over other then that's your perogative but please don't call people liars when you don't know the INS and outs of what they post.
Again qatar and Dubai are the main interested parties, shiek Mohammed wants Liverpool big time, but the fact that he is not going to be made a mug again concerning Liverpool is holding him back slightly, he was stitched up last time and he won't be made a fool again.
But he views Liverpool as a prized asset, and wants us.

Tho this guy:
"Ok first of all don't believe the papers you read (Daily Mail, Sun, Daily Sport, & Sky Sports) 99% fabricated stuff. Fabregas has a 130 million buyout clause does not mean we get 130 mill. As great a player as he is, He is not Messi, Ronaldo, Torres.Btw Real and Man City are the only teams who like to over pay.Barca will not budge over 45 and may throw in a player too. Barca are trying to get rid of ibrahimovic to buy Torres and getting a swap for fabregas means they have money for Torres or do a swap with Liverpool and pay for fabregasTorres hates Real since his boyhood club is Athletico, much like city vs utd rivalry. Also Liverpool are in need of money to build a competetive squad, They can't afford to be out of the top 4.barca are thinking spend now and have a squad which can go 4?5 years. They are indeed looking to Pair Villa and Torres with Messi.Xavi plays on the right and Keita/ busquets in the middle with one or both likely to be sold or benched with fabregas to start. No he will not be a defensive midfield but in an attack formation the defesive LB & RB move up with the wingers to cut in for cover.Arsenal 4?4?2 or 4?3?3 likely 4?4?2 since fabregas is leaving. Eduardo will most likely go and Bojan most likely to come in + cash for fabreagasBarca to go 4?3?3 , Henry is out, yaya is out, busquets is out or as i know they are trying to sell him. Ibrahimovic is out.Im working on Queensland Road Project for Arsenal FC."
cesc, iniesta and xavi in defence won't work. iniesta is an attacking midfeilder so he will play upfront. never defends. cesc also plays upfront as an attacking midfeilder and rarely ever comes back to help defencivly. xavi will be forced to do all the tackling in midfeild and that would affect his game. also it will make counter attacks against barcelona a walk in the park. to play 4–3–3 you need to play 1 defencive midfeilder or you will fail. dani alves is a wing back and that's what he is good at. maxwell is also a wing back and comes in and makes a cross very often. alves will need to be replaced if they want to play fullbacks or they just have an expensive player doing them no good. puyol lacks pace so can't block counter attacks well and pique plays forward very often. i don't see that happening im sorry with near no solid defence barca will fail tremendously. however thankgoodness non of youlot are the manager of barcelona.
if cesc was purchased he would play from the bench and replace xavi or iniesta during an injury or sub, however fabregas just said today that he came to london just to get his medical update and said he had no plans on leaving arsenal, the chairman also said that no contact had been made by barcelona of any interest. if barca want fabregas they will have to top man city's 50mil bid (soon to be outbidded by inter) or offer the asking 80million or back off.
in other news.
carlos vela will join athletico madrid on loan for the whole season. diego forlan will join liverpool in exchange for one of their players and cash apparently.
benitez is wanting to put a bid on for theo walcott in the summer. smart move he will have the fastest striker in the world (torres) partner the fastest player in the world today (walcott).

He is leaving Sheff Utd with Middlesborough his most likly desination after speaking in detail with Strachen the evening before the transfer window closed in Jan.
21 May 2010 15:02:53
.."To the person that keeps reporting he wants to move to Doncaster you are sadly mistaken my friend he was pictured at Leeds United's promotion party. I have it on good authority that Sharp has signed for Leeds!"
What authority is that? I don't give a monkey's whose party he was at mate, he's still trying to sort out his future and has JUST arranged a meeting with SUFC to discuss his situation. Hardly the action of someone who has signed for Leeds?? He can't sign for anyone until they make an acceptable offer to the club, which to date no–one has.
Sharp wants to go to Donny, but only because Blackwell's staying at SUFC.he may still end up at Bellend Road but he has NOT signed, and I have it on the ultimate authority squire ;–)

I would finally like to help clear up the oft stated rumours that there was no money to spend the last two summers. The fact is the £20m allocated per season ALSO takes into account contract re–negotiations and re–signing fees to current players due to the 50% tax hike this year. Players such as Torres, Gerrard, Kuyt etc. This is part of the 20m budget, hence why there has not been any further money available apart from those that have been raised from player sales.
Those are the facts, not rumours!
Actually Thomo said a few weeks back on soccer Saturday that he had a reliable source within Anfield and there was 15 million available for Rafa last summer which either he decided not to spend or the owners lost faith with him before the summer was out and didn't trust him with it

Two things, firstly this is probably not true at all, but i have heard that Real Madrid are going to try and sign Drogba. Again, doubt it will happen, but i wouldn't be suprised if they are interested as he is a good player.
Secondly, can we stop posting messages that don't offer any rumours? As somebody said earlier, this is a rumours page, therefore if you don't have a rumour or anything interesting to say you shouldn't be posting. Casing point – '21 May 2010 14:38:01

SAF has disappointed many with his backing of Berbasaur and his admission that Berba will be here next season. Hopefully Milan or Bayern are stupid enough to offer 18 – 22 for him and have SAF sell him!!!
Since SAF wants one big name signing, it will be David Silva for 25 – 30. Expect also Gourcuff(17.5 release clause), who is not a big name as he is currently under the radar as third choice in midfield for many. Podolski/Dzeko(10 + Tosic/27 – 30) to come in if a silly money deal comes for Berba

The reason Sheff Utd will pay Bogdanovich's wages (closer to 8 grand a week by the way) is because they are sponsored by 'VisitMalta' who will be making a contribution towards his wages. That's the main reason they're signing him. If he was Scottish or Lithuanian there's no way he'd be signing for them.
21 May 2010 14:27:37
Barca still remain confident of securing Fabregas for 30 million + Marquez, Chygirinsky and one or two of Jonathon Dos Santos, Thaigo Alacantra and Gai Assulin. Despite Wenger's strong interest in Dos Santos and Assulin as well as Marquez to add experience to his defence, he will stick to his 70–80 million valuation.
Unless a figure of that amount should be offered it is highly unlikely that Fabregas will leave, despite the so–called meeting where Fabregas reportedly demanded to leave the facts point to otherwise and that Fabregas has stated numerous times that he wants to stay although he eventually wants to go to Barca.
Whilst he wants to stay for the forseeable future when Xavi retires i'm sure Barca will come whining and start it all over again but this time they will probably meet Wenger's demands and Cesc will return home.
Gigi Buffon is growing closer to a move away from Juve after new manager Del Neri cast doubts on his future. Expect Arsenal, Man Utd and Man City to all b interested. If Man City can woo him with their money they may feel more inclined to sell Joe Hart to Arsenal, otherwise Wenger may secure one of the best keepers in the world (providing Juve don't demand a huge amount). Also Diego to be put up for sale with Chelsea, Atletico and Man City to compete.
Mamadou Sakho more than likely will move to Arsenal with Wenger his biggest fan calling him the new Thuram. A fee of 8–10 million will be demanded but if Traore is thrown in PSG may come down on their asking price.
The second CB will be a right–footer to replace Senderos. Zapata, Tasci, Subotic, Cahill, Jagelka and Van Der Wiel all being linked.

Yet again i must step in with some SERIOUS TRUE LIVERPOOL NEWS. the absolute ludacris rubbish i read on here is just a absolute joke. the following is LIES
mascherano +10mil and higuain
Raul free? IF WE GOT HIGUAIN WHY WILL WE WASTE MONEY ON A OLD MAN were not getin both MAYbe raul
joe cole rumoured to be at melwood? HES IN BLOODY AUSTRIA and is unlikely to join liverpool
real rumours real INS:
Rafeal Van Der Vaart– done deal part of xabi and arbeloa deal we sold arbeloa for 6mil for a reason not because he was crap.
Reto Ziegler at left back: more or less doen done NO KOLOROV OR TAIWO this is COMPLETE LIESSSSS with no evidence to back it up
its well documented liverpool need a striker and Pavlyuchenko is not coming. Kevin Kuranyi is a possibility but depends on mashcerano sales explained below (no higuain no aguero no robiniho this is hilarious bullocks)
this leaves void in defensive midfield as Mascherano is gona leave sad i kno but Ever Banega is going to fill that and he is more complete player more attacking and very good defensively.
another midfielder in case gerrard leaves no idea who and no one else has an idea who. Javi Martinez would be my best bet but Real want him for 30mil we can't match that unless all gerrard money goes to him and Real get gerrard instead.
Liverpool Outs:
the dead weight basically:
–Babel has one more season to shine he impressed towards the end.
–Ngog on loan shame hes not goin forever
–Aurelio hes a free agent
–Reira round about 7mil found banega move hes 8.5mil
–Gerrard MAYBE 30mil plus money straight into Javi martinez move IF it happens caragher or Reina to be new captain.
–Mashcerano up to 30mil – again if it happens Ever Banega fillin his position with money left over to be for a striker.
no big summer signing will be made till after the world cup because the price and etiquete of players will be seen price either up or down small names turn big etc. time to shine.
Oh and finanyl.Rafa is not leaving liverpool he is stayin and good that he is hes a brilliant manager from the tope four teams for the shortest time he has the best statistics.took SAF 7 years to win the league title things take time, and a great manager like mourinho still hasnt won the champions league with chelsea at his stay there with SURPLUS AMMOUNT OF MONEY and his signings were rubbish Rafa made a great team out of cheap players this is a FACT

J. Mucha (Legia Warszawa) – FREE
J. Ledley (Cardiff City) – FREE (though possibly not if Cardiff win promotion)
C. Adam (Blackpool – £3,000,000 (though possibly not if Blackpool win promotion)
Others are linked, but main financial focus will be securing Rodwell, Pienaar, Baines, and Arteta to long–term contracts, so don't be surprise if other free transfers happen. If Pienaar doesn't sign by the end of the World Cup, expect him to leave for around £10,000,000–15,000,000 with probably Tottenham, Villa (if Milner or Young go) and other continental teams in the mix for him.

Darren Pratley has made it perfectly clear that he wants to move to Forest, to play regularly in a side before getting to the Prem.

What a laugh he hasn't said any such thing I live two doors down from him, and its Newcastle and Sunderland who have shown interest.

To the idiots who are touting Watford Rumours.
1. Loach to Norwich WILL NOT HAPPEN as he has just signed an extension and Prem teams the likes of Spurs have been sniffing around, so why would he make the Sideways/Diagonally or even down wards move to Norfolk?
2. There is no longer any financial difficulty at the club due to a rights issue/bond agreement being put into place at the start of the month. We will not be selling players the likes of Danny Graham, et al, and the only ones coming off of the wage bill are those that are being/have been released already.
3. Doherty deal is never going to happen as he wants too much money on the wages front and Demerit will be looking for something bottom half of the Prem after the World Cup and not a move to Carrot Crunching Land!
21 May 2010 12:31:15

Also there is massive news that a done deal has been done with Wayne Hennesey and Sylvan Ebanks Blake heading to Burnley plus 4 million for Steven Fletcher. Also in will be Maik Taylor as a back up keeper. If Steven Thompson refuses to sign a new contract then Marcus Tudgay or Rob Hulse will be signed to replace him. Lloyd Sam is also a name being mentioned a lot lately. Burnley have also signed Bury youth ace Billy Crawshaw for 250k. We will win the championship next year with this sqaud. UTC!

To who wrote "QPR RUMOURS
After signing Jamie Mackie, Warnock will be looking for another forward, likely to be either Sharp, Fryatt, Aliadiere or Hulse. Darren Ambrose should sign before the world cup unless the CPFC2010 Crystal Palace takeover bid get it`s act together. Danns and Hill are likely to follow, with the possibility of either Clyne or Speroni"
Rubbish, YES Warnock has bid for Speroni and Ambrose (£750k each).
However, CPFC2010 will complete there take over on Wednesday.
Clyne has made it clear he has no intentions of joining QPR and wants to play in the premiership if he does leave and has told Warnock niot to bother trying to chance his mind.
The only player QPR have a chance of signing is Clint Hill who has been offered a contract by QPR and Leeds and although he verbally agreed to join QPR, the pull of moving back up north is making Leeds favourite.
21 May 2010 12:10:00

I have heard United will bid for Milner once the World cup is over, United feel he will turn down both Chelsea and City to go to Old Trafford, they will match City's offer all though it will be largely add ons with a 20m first installment! If they fail to get him they will turn their attentions to Rodwell, they will pay 15m upfront with further installments! Carrick may also be used in one of these deals although United would prefer to keep him.
So if the United fans could stop their dreamteam rumours on here because the most that will be happening is Milner or Rodwell!

21 May 2010 11:38:34
To this guy:
cesc deal is dead. wenger requested 80mil or 80mil in value transfers eg. bojan and iniesta and 30mil. he won't go for 30–40mil its pretty much inpossible since man city and inter have alredy placed bigger bids and in the summer man city may offer 80mil and sean wright phillips apparently because he wants to play for arsenal like his dad ian wright.
arsenal will never sign a 30 year old stevie g.
buffon is pretty much confirmed to be leaving for the premier league. and the only top flight clubs i can see him joining are arsenal and man city. however since juventus are in a big debt and need to pay arsenal of for the viera money i can see him coming here for cheap and clearance of the viera payment.
barca won't sign torres the chairman only has 92million euro's to spend all year and he has alredy spent over 50% of it. the only possible way barca will get torres is if barca offer VERY good players in return for him, since he is the best striker in the world. so probably iniesta and ibrahimovic and 25mil or something like that. arsenal just need 1 defender since we still have vermalaen. who is coincedently the best centreback in the premier league according to sky sports. we will sign 1 big cb signing and another younger one as backup. sol said he will stay for atleast another year. djorou is almost fully fit again aswell.
finally why would we pay 25mil for gourcuff may i ask? i mean his buyout clause is 17.5mil so why would we just pay extra for no reason ?
Ok first of all don't believe the papers you read (Daily Mail, Sun, Daily Sport, & Sky Sports) 99% fabricated stuff. Fabregas has a 130 million buyout clause does not mean we get 130 mill. As great a player as he is, He is not Messi, Ronaldo, Torres.
Btw Real and Man City are the only teams who like to over pay.
Barca will not budge over 45 and may throw in a player too. Barca are trying to get rid of ibrahimovic to buy Torres and getting a swap for fabregas means they have money for Torres or do a swap with Liverpool and pay for fabregas
Torres hates Real since his boyhood club is Athletico, much like city vs utd rivalry. Also Liverpool are in need of money to build a competetive squad, They can't afford to be out of the top 4.
barca are thinking spend now and have a squad which can go 4–5 years. They are indeed looking to Pair Villa and Torres with Messi.
Xavi plays on the right and Keita/ busquets in the middle with one or both likely to be sold or benched with fabregas to start. No he will not be a defensive midfield but in an attack formation the defesive LB & RB move up with the wingers to cut in for cover.
Arsenal 4–4–2 or 4–3–3 likely 4–4–2 since fabregas is leaving. Eduardo will most likely go and Bojan most likely to come in + cash for fabreagas
Barca to go 4–3–3 , Henry is out, yaya is out, busquets is out or as i know they are trying to sell him. Ibrahimovic is out.
Im working on Queensland Road Project for Arsenal FC.

Danns and Hill are likely to follow, with the possibility of either Clyne or Speroni

I can confirm that blackburn have released a statement saying that they no longer have to sell to buy, and this means the arival of dindane, Boateng and they are also believed to have tabled a 3 million bid for Jimmy Bullard
21 May 2010 09:57:18
LIVERPOOL FACTS.
In: Lukaku, Ganso, Shelvey, Wilson, Jovanovic, Banega, Mata, Warnock. 40–50 million.
Out: Spearing, Riera, Mascherano, Aurelio, Benayoun, El Zhar, Pacheco (loan), Darby (loan). 40–50 million.
Expect the 4 young signings to see limited 1st team action although Lukaku will be used more if Torres loses fitness. Lucas will step up and look more effective with Mascherano gone to Spain and Gerrard won't play as central, stepping into Kuyts role, allowing Aquilani to play behind the triangle of Gerrard, Torres and Mata/Babel/Jovanovic.
Ganso will grow to become a world class player under the watch of Gerrard.
Squad:
Reina, Cavalieri, Gulacsi,
Johnson, Kelly, Degen, Carragher, Ayala, Kyrgiakos, Agger, Skrtel, Wilson, Insua, Warnock,
Kuyt, Gerrard, Lucas, Aquilani, Banega, Shelvey, Ganso, Mata, Jovanovic, Babel, Maxi,
Torres, Lukaku, Ngog, Eccleston, Nemeth.
This squad will put liverpool back on thier "fing perch"
21 May 2010 09:21:11
To the nugget who said Boyd will stay but only if he's offered £16,000 p/w, he was offered £18,000 but obviously teams from the EPL, the championship & Turkey have offered a lot more. Smith doesn't rate Boyd because he doesn't play for the team.
Rangers WILL be bought over & given a small amount of money to bring in new players.
We need a quick left back, maybe a centre back (depends if Bougherra goes), 2 midfielders (Quaresma being linked again) & 2 strikers.
21 May 2010 09:23:55
Norwich enquiring about right wingers currently and the players Lambert is talking to are:

21 May 2010 09:24:25
My mate CLAIMS to have knowledge of how the shake up of the AP at the City Ground will work after the talks this week.
– The targets will now be discussed and decided upon as before, but ND will provide BD with a firm budget and the panel, but very much led by BD, will decide on an upper valuation for each player and a priority of the targets.
– The AP will then negotiate the deals upto that upper limit and BD will be satisfied that they are not making insuling, token offers for players
– Any money saved will be redistributed by BD after each player purchase, to increase, where appropriate, the upper limits on players who are high priority, or to pick second and third choice targets where players are unnattainable.
Expect Pratley to sign before the end of May, Ambrose and a European left back to come in before preseason starts. Van Aarnholt is a loan target, and BD prefers to get players in for keeps where he can so expect him to be the back up plan. Ishmael Miller is a target should one of our 6 strikers move, either permanently or on loan, but won't arrive otherwise.

Fistly you seem to be a very anger bitter and twisted young man, are you a arsenal or liverpool fan? you need to learn to deal with disapointment in a more constructive way if you aspire to be a well rounded productive member of society. Chill Man! theres always next season.

If you had you'll have noticed that i said Berbatov is unlikely to move and that if he did move then a replacement was also unlikey to be bought, i mearly surrgested 3 players who MAY be bought if Sir Alex decided to replace him, which btw Anelka hasn't yet signed his new contract but is expected to any day now, and both him and Fabiano have been linked in the press in the last month, Trezeguet hasn't been linked to united in a few years but Sir Alex has form with him having tried to sign him 3 times already(once at Monaco and twice at Juventus), and your right united very rarely sign a player over 27 but as i explained before the reason for signing an older player in this case was so it wouldn't cause to many problems for the young strikers coming through in the squad(we signed a 29yr old Owen last year). you asked for my source well my source is this thing called the INTERNET you'll also find everyone on that list has been linked with United in the press in the last year(btw the press normally get there stuff by finding out which games scouts have been to then making educated guesses as to who they were looking at in that game). So i'd surgest you do a bit of reaserch and calmly count to 10 before you start shouting your mouth off in the future.
All the best with trying to better yourself, just stick to the pointers i've given you and you'll be fine.
Regards

Ipswich are in money troubles and will be forced to sell their more expensive players. Expect Leadbitter, Edwards, Wickham and Bruce all to be sold, with more to follow. Roy Keane will have to deal in free transfers though it's unclear who he'll make a move for at present. Sorry Town fans, I have a source at the club who's worked there quite a while I have no reason to doubt!
21 May 2010 08:49:44
Had a text from my journalist source at the Pink'Un, he has told me that Nathan Delfuenso will sign on loan for norwich this coming season. With Beckford signing for Villa, Nathan's first team opportunities will be limited and O'Neill's respect for Lambert is making this deal happen.
21 May 2010 08:52:03
More Norwich news, Danny Green is to sign for City after Dagenham's play–off campaign reaches its conclusion. Declan Rudd will go on loan to the Daggers for the first half of the season as part of the deal.
21 May 2010 08:59:34
A while back there was rumours of a bust up between rafa and gerrard..and the rafa spin machine sprung into action to dismiss it and say that everything was fine.
Now as the season has finished expect the truth to be told soon, once he moves gerrard will sell the story to a tabloid paper with some revelations of his views on rafa and what has happened.
Takeover to be completed soon, expect shiek Mohammed to make a fresh bid soon
21 May 2010 07:56:57
Some real rangers rumours here
Walter will probable only bring in 2 or 3 Players and maybe some youngsters.
If Krissy Boyd goes we've been strongly linked with both Jimmy Briand(Rennes) and Tresor Mputu(TP Mazembe) Both at a good age and good goalscorers. I would only expect one of these two as there valued at around the 2million mark.
In midfield the only strong link ive seen is James Mcaurthur great wee player and from what I hear a rangers supporter, I would think he would cost another 1.5 –2 million. we may also go back in for Simon poulson(AZ) who plays left mid after trying to sign him in January but the deal fell through.
With webster coming back smith won't need to bring in another centreback even if wilson and bougy leave as (as much as it pains me to say it) he will probably use broadfoot more in that roll to save spending on a new player.
21 May 2010 07:58:50

Avram Grant steps down as pompy manager.FACT(check if u want to on www.premierleague.com)
he is now likely to join west ham or go to netherlands with twente or herneveen.
if grant moves to westham expect james, utaka and belhadj to be at upton park.
james, kanu, hreidarsson have been offered new contracts.unlikely that the former two would accept.
man utd rumors
who says Utd doesnot have funds. we all know utd are in 750 m+ debt. so committing a sin 10 times doesn't make it any better the 11th time.so Utd will spend if necessary.
So,
Silva or Milner for sure.
DoDo, and other youngsters mentioned earlier in this site.
Giuseppe Rossi will be at OT some time in the future.(we have a buy back clause for 6.5 m)
the special one to take over after utd win the epl !!
All are FACTS !! no lie

–Hamsik(Nooooo he is not linked)
Gourcuff(Is not linked ye keep dreaming it up mainly on this site Arsenal if any1 will sign him).......links il look them up and if they are genuine links il admit i was wrong (that means that you heard it from a friend of a friends etc. doesn't count)!! Hopefully the editor puts this up on the rumours page if they don't there part of the problem aswell!
PEACE–
What a load of bollcks. This is a RUMOURS page not a 'Come on here and slag everyone off page'. Most of those rumours are actually true, they have been discussed on websites such as skysports and football365 and of course in the tabloids. Rather than come on here and slag someone off and demand for proof of information, you should bloody look them up yourself, google isn't exactly hard to use!
21 May 2010 07:51:31
According to sources close to the club, Barcalona are having to raise funds to bring in Cesc Fabregas, as Arsene Wenger is unwilling to let him go for less than 60 million pounds. Barcalona will sell a few players:
Ibrahimovic they are trying to sell for 50 million quid, but will be lucky if they find a buyer above 20 million.
Busquets they are also trying to sell in excess of 20 millions, which might have happened before the Inter match, but managers do like players with integrity, and as we all saw, he has less than none.
Yaya Toure and Henry will both be sold for around 10 million, but with Henry on the decline and Toure only playing well against lower end Spanish teams, they will be getting peanuts for these two.
That makes it seem increasingly likely that Cesc will remain at Arsenal until Barcalona can raise the right funds.
21 May 2010 06:21:08
Liverpool have signed Ever Banega and Juan Mata from Valencia. The deal involves 20m plus Riera going to Valencia. Ever will replace Javier Mascherano, who is going to Real Madrid, in exchange for Gonzalo Higuain.

21 May 2010 05:55:55
Arsenal fighting Bayern for M'bia of Marseille
Ribery has extended his contract with Bayern but this doesn't rule out sale
Guiseppe Rossi is being followed by Man City – I believe he would meet home grown rule for new premierleague rules. LFC also rumoured to be interested (he'd go well with Torres I think)
Meanwhile, LFC situation gets no clearer. Benitez made some curious comments to Spanish media which they've taken as meaning he's still in for Inter job . And if he stays at LFC, Gerrard may go if they cannot resolve their differences. Juve are looking at upping their bid for Aquilani, but they're unlikely to match LFC's valuation.
As I understand it – pieced together from a couple of different sources – transfer revenue is available to Rafa on a "use it or lose it" basis – i.e., if it doesn't get used or allocated to a deal by the time any club sale happens it could well "disappear" elsewhere. This might be why he seems to favour possible – but risky – swap deals. It can't get syphoned off that way! Also Raul is one of a number of frees being seriously looked at as a short–term fix.
21 May 2010 01:20:06
Just had a phone call from my gf who has said Simon Grayson {her uncle} has just txt her saying Roberts to have medical tomorrow & Sharp & Montgomery to sign tomorrow & he also texted her Beckford has all but completed his move to ASTON VILLA

Jermaine beckford WILL sign for everton, my gaffer is a leeds fan and is good mates with the reserve right back at elland rd, and the deal was done shortly after he scored the winner at old trafford as far as im aware it is a free transfer and he is leaving because ken bates wouldn't pay him 10 k a week as at the min he on around 2 , 3 k . 10 K !! that's right leeds fans you may have kept him if your chairman wasnt as tight as a camels arse in a sandstorm. but good luck for the new season and hope your team does you proud
For one tight ass Bates offered him 16k an offer which is still on the table for him and 2 yea your wrong he signed the pre–contract BEFORE the scum game but after seeing his recent performance Everton pulled the contract away but they are now interested again

Norwich assistant Gary Karsa has been tying up the loose ends on a couple of deals so expect to see the following happen by the end of next week.
Marc Albrighton the young Villa winger will arrive on a season long loan. Martin O'Neill has a great relationship with Paul Lambert and has full trust in him (unlike other managers, hence being reluctant to send lads on loan in the past).
Caleb Folan from Hull will arrive, which will be Norwich's only big money signing this summer. PL has followed him since his days at Rushden and is keen to get him in as competition for Holt.
21 May 2010 00:15:19
All rumours about addison leaving derby are false. He is currently injured and is not due to return until december.
20 May 2010 23:44:18
People need to be more realistic on here.Robert Koren is quality and his wages are high it is more likely that he will sign for a mediocre prem team. championship and league fans should get over the chance of him signing for themand I am a Reading fan.
everyday I read on here that someones been spotted in Glasgow, how many managers do Celtic want eh?
Arsenal fans get over it Fabregas will go unless Arsenal block Barcelona out of a move with unreasonednable negotiations.
man utd fans stop expecting loads of good/quality signings SAF has said only one if any, so no Gourcuff and silva and ronaldinho and pele and maradona.
Liverpool fans stop expecting all these signing because FACT right now you will be making no massive signing because nobody knows REALLY whats going on with the ownership. Milner will not be going to liverpool even with money flowing in. Joe Cole who knows, but will probably end up staying at Chelsea as he is a chelsea fan.
also whats with the brian jensen links to Reading hes in talks with Burnley over a new deal plus for now we have Federici despite people saying he was signing for the Yids (Cudicini sighned a new deal).
and jobi mcanuff going sorry but where is the truth in this?
Expect Andy Griffin to sign in the next few weeks and Zurab Khizinishvili if wages and transfer fee doesn't prevent it in that case a loan deal may come in.

Touted to be the next Abo Treka among the locals, El Hawary started his career about a year ago at the age of 17 in Division 2 team, El Gouna FC. El Gouna fought their way to the Egyptian Premier League and El Hawary played a huge part. Other teams interested include African Giants, Al Ahly and Hearts of Oak.

This is a reply to that fairy that put in
MAN UTD NEWS:
Sir Alex has said that he expects only 1 more signing of the right "quality" by this he means first teamer, still expect a couple of 16–18yr olds to sign and be groomed into the first team in a few seasons time. etc.etc.
You linked the following players to United
Hamsik(Nooooo he is not linked)
Gourcuff(Is not linked ye keep dreaming it up mainly on this site Arsenal if any1 will sign him)
Modric(was linked but looks unlikely as he is 5/1 in the bookies to join United now and they are pretty good at holding onto there money)
Pjanic(would be good signin but this is purely from your own head)
Defour(Possible but never really recovered from injury)
And you said possibly one of these:
United Very Very Rarely buy a player over 27 that's where your wrong first off!!
Trezeguet( What is wrong with you seriously)
Anelka(Just signed contract with Chelsea Duuu)
Fabiano(is the only remotely possible player you put down)
Berbatov isn't leaving as much as ye want it to happen the most possible sale is Tosic! Foster is already gone!!
Just cause you think these up doesn't doesn't mean they are rumours to be submitting!! Its people like you that keep putting stupid on this site its not a fantasy football site YE DONT GET TO PICK WHAT PLAYER A TEAM IS GOING TO BUY!!
I'd be more than happy for you to Prove me wrong Just tell me the sources of these links il look them up and if they are genuine links il admit i was wrong (that means that you heard it from a friend of a friends etc. doesn't count)!! Hopefully the editor puts this up on the rumours page if they don't there part of the problem aswell!
