Liverpool are chasing 2 massive talents. The first is Eden Hazard for 16mil and the second in Stevan Jovetic for around 16mil. Villa, Aguero, Silva etc. are far too expensive for the club at the moment. Benitez (who is likely to remain in charge) wants these two players to replace Babel (9mil) and Riera (6mil).

Aleksandar Kolarov will also be brought in for 15mil to replace Aurelio and Hugo Rodallega will be brought in as back up to Torres for 9mil. Cahill (14mil) will replace Skrtel 9mil to (Juventus) and Danny Wilson will alo join for around 3mil. Milan Jovanovic (3 yr contract) Dida (2 year contract) and Juliano Belletti (2 year contract) will come in on free transfers.

Benayoun, Cavalieri, San Jose, Degen and El Zhar will also leave for another 15mil or so leaving total expenditure at around 35mil. Hicks and Gillett will allow this amount to be splashed out but will hike up their asking price by 20mil to compensate.

Other transfers:
Sergio Aguero to Chelsea (36mil)
Nicolas Anelka to Valencia (10mil)
David Silva to Barcelona (23mil)
Leonardo Bonnucci to AC (15mil)
Bacary Sagna to AC Milan (12mil)
Marek Hamsik to Man Utd (18mil)
Jack Rodwell to Man Utd (20mil)
Gregory Van der Wiel to Arsenal(7mil)
Angel Di Maria to Madrid (30mil)
Edin Dzeko to Juventus (22mil)
Luis Suarez to Man City (23mil)
David Villa to Man City (29mil)
Ozil to City (15mil)
Shaun Wright Philips to Birmingham City (9mil)
Carlton Cole to Arsenal (14mil)
Maicon to Madrid (25mil)
Hugo Lloris to Man Utd (15mil)

To the Know all who recons The Messiah Nigel Pearson is off to burnley, why who how did you get this info? Leicester are on their way to the playoffs and with luck back to the premiership so why would he leave us to go to burnley who will be replacing Leicester in the championship??
Pearson is putting contract talks on hold till the end of the season, so that he can concentrate on the squad and remaining games as he feels he can sort out his own future when Leicester have returned to the top flight which will give him extra bagaining tools especially when some rumours round the Walkers suggest Mr Mandaric will be bringing in a very very wealthy pal to become his partner to fulfill his dreams for Leicester to become a succesful premiership team .
So good luck the foxes on your remaining games and for the play offs.
Foxes forever onwards and upwards.

MAN.UTD REAL RUMOURS

lets be realistic guys manutd need 4 players
striker, attacking midfileder, left winger and
goal keeper.

allot of stupid rumours about akinfeev coming that's rubish coz he is going to chelsea blues have good
connections to russia

GK
lloris or neuer
on youtube he looks like the best keeper at the moment.

AMF
modric, gourcuff, silva, milner
rodwell will come next season

WINGER
joe cole, de maria, douglas costa,

STRIKER
benzema, dzenko, fabiano

my choices are for GK is lloris, check youtube
AMF–modric because he is proven in epl
i think milner will be a flop he is neither good
teqnicaly or great goal scoring player all he has is stamina but we got park for that WE ARE MISSING CREATIVITY NOT STAMINA. WINGER de maria unlikey tho coz bidding war for him. STRIKER dzenko, benzema because they will comliment rooney and people saying villa will come we don't need two small players upfront remember rooney, tevez never worked

Heard from a good source that Leicester manager Nigel Pearson will join Burnley at the end of the season. He wants Premiership football and doesn't want to wait until Leicester get promoted. He will be joined at Burnley by the rest of his backroom staff.

Dear editor, print this story if you want but everyone must know by now anyway. Two story's will be outed on sunday morning by the News Of The World. Story 1, Alex curran has been having an affair with a derby county player..Kris Commens. They may not mention who it is in the paper, but i have heared from a very good source in the scotland camp that Kris is planning to start a new life with alex curren in london. Meanwhile, story 2, Steven Gerrard has got a liverpool girl pregnant, and she will be keeping it. She is 16 now but was 15 when they met. He is now in total meltdown that he has been to court to block the story, but it has been rejected. He is now going to be handing in a transfer request and wants a fresh new start abroard, as he does not want the abuse from every ground he goes to next season.100 percent true, watch this space!

Sebastian Larsson – (£2M or Free?)

In response to

'man utd signing mohammed zidan' and to the wolves of 'scharner £2 Million'

Can I start of by saying Zidan is 28 and will be 29 come the summer. So he isn't young and his contract has 2 yrs left so no cheap fee.

To the Wolves transfer rumours all good realistic prices and targets except scharner is free at end of season and will most likely go to Fulham.

thanks tim

Milner – MAN UTD is totally untrue

23 Apr 2010 19:58:40
I Hate These Rumours Because Man United Are Looking For Value And Youth, So Saying They Will Sign 40m & Old Players Are Wrong. So To Me We Will Sign Some Youth Players Like:

Jack Rodwell–All Around Player, Great Pass & Can Play Centre Back.
Mohamed Zidan–Fast & Great Shot.
Takiyuki Morimoto–Fast & Same Height & Build Of Ronaldo.
& Eden Hazard–Great Free Kick & Good Crosses. Skillful & Fast.

I Think Maybe We Will Sign One Major Player Like:

Luis Fabiano–Who Has Been Stated As Saying He Would Join United Over Any Other Team. Great Goalscorer & Expierenced. A Bit Old(29 Nearly 30)But Would Be Great Addition.
Klaas Jan Huntelaar–Goalscorer, Had Hard Time Recently At Real & AC.

"HUGE NEWS COMING IN TODAY AS CITY LOOK FOR YOUTH AND EXPERIENCE
my friends dad works for QPR as the director of football about bringing current QPR director of football to Man City. However there will be a battle with chelski over ex player steve wicks.
If this happens steve will bring in many names:
Kakuta–£15million or so
Joe Cole–Huge contract
Ballack–huge contract to persuade him not to move to germany
David Luiz–£15MILLION"

There is no director of football at QPR – but I am pretty certain that these transfers will indeed go ahead.

Im sorry are you stupid of course there is and you shouldnt be certain beacuase they are 100 % accurate, this guy knows someone in QPR and stevie wicks is going to man city but chelsea want him! You know nothing about football.

i think you will find that you are right i have inside info as my friends dad is steve wicks and chelsea want him but he is turning his back on them after abuse from their fans so wants to go to man city as he know their true potential
Thanks

Re: MAN U Soldier 4 LYF

What a shaft you are, Rodwell may well join you after next season but it won't be for free as he still has just under 4 years on a contract also do you seriously think that if pienaar won't sign a new contract we will hold onto him for another season to let him leave for nothing.

Also I have to agree that Henry will never come to us much as I would like to have him as there is only one english club he loves and would play for, as he has previously stated, in much the same way as Torres has, so can we please stop all the shte about him aswell. Can we get some real gossip on here please, not dreams and dillusions. Mbokani to Everton, also expect a serious enquiry about Landon Donovan and expect Moyes to speak to Beckford.

Why do people think that the likes of tom cleverly will be goin wba they don't need him they got the likes of graham dorrans it wouldn't surprise me if u see cleverly at PNE and we need a striker may see a return for Welbeck as he enjoyed his time there but other i think guarantees will be james on loan again and maybe adam le fondre or sylvan ebanks blake if trevor hemmings completes a takeover which all PNE fans want i hope

I don't know who the next Celtic manager will be (and by the way, neither does anyone else). But I know that Dermot Desmond and others have just been made offers for their stake in the club from a USA consortium. Part of the new deal includes summer tours of the US (with Rangers, if they agree) and American football games at Celtic park during the close season.

"Any true southampton fc rumours??"

yep, obviously adam lallana, since the rest of the team are absolutely rubbish at football. Why do you think Chris Perry and Mario Licka don't play for man utd? exactly!

adam lallana to either celtic, tottenham, fulham or wolves

 

23 Apr 2010 18:03:37
"I need to no a lot of man united rumours please as i am new 2 this site. ?"

HERE YOU GO TRUE RUMOURS:

INS:

JOE COLE
KARIM BENZEMA
MOHAMMED ZIDAN

AND MAYBE JAAN KLAAS HUNTELAAR.

OUTS:

WAYNE ROONEY TO REAL MADRID
VIDIC TO MAN CITY, AC MILAN OR REAL MADRID
BERBATOV TO BAYERN MUNICH OR AC MILAN
KUSZCZCAZCK TO ASTON VILLA
EVRA TO MAN CITY OR REAL MADRID
TOM CLEVERLY TO BIRMINGHAM OR BOLTON

No goalkeeper will be chosen since van der sar is still amazing and we don't need neuer or lloris or whoever.

Also rodwell WILL come on a free next season as will pienaar and luis fabiano.

Also wayne will be a part exchange with benzema since benzema is better than rooney because there will be no more sir alex.

sir alex will step down since a new contract with the glazers takeover may make him redundant unfortunately, so expect either mourinho to come later on, after inter milan win everything, then MAN U WILL BE THE BEST!

MAN U soldier 4 LYF!

I am MON's nephew and all these rumours of him joining Liverpool are made up by spotty face teenager geeks who know nothing about football other than what they play on Fifa. He is committed to Villa end of. P.s. Milner and Young are going nowhere except South Africa.

100% true Mr Gerrard in court today to get a gaging order on the press due to two massive story's about to break over his personal life. looks like he will be going to Spain or Italy in the summer and his world cup place is looking very unstable!

im praying this isn't true as im a massive Liverpool fan and Gerrard has been my hero for the last ten years! this comes from the same source that knew about the john terry story 2 weeks before it broke

A DEVERSTATED LIVERPOOL FAN YNWA.

 

23 Apr 2010 17:36:18
Thierry Henry is not going to Everton and he never will. If he comes back to a premiership team, it will be Arsenal. Although, in the summer, he is going to the New York Red Bulls in America according to reports on Sporting Life.

Benitez told Premium Calcio: "The future? I just think about the next week, only of the sale of the club.

"I'm interested in who buys Liverpool.

"Resignation? I will have to wait for next week. I will talk to who will buy the club. We must wait."
sounds like something major will happen next week in the liverpool takeover saga .

To the person that said that LFC's new chairman has done a deal for Juan Roman Riquelme. THAT IS NOT TRUE. No deals will be done until the new owner takes control. Some of you have said that Adriano is coming to Liverpool. Also not true. I have heard from my source who is an advisor based in Dubai that the Sheikh of Sharjah was outbid by the Sheikh of Dubai (who is planning to buy LFC for £480M). Rafa is going to Juventus. 100% done deal. The BA chairman has informed Rafa that the new owners will appoint a new manager.

Fulham 2 sign either adam lallana (initial £4mil rising to £6mil)
or they will opt for the very talented morgan schniderlin who was chased by arsenal, man u and various other clubs from europe for a fee of £5mill.
Both lads are from southamton FC

 

23 Apr 2010 15:59:44
I have been informed by some members of the Liverpool FC staff that Mr. Martin Broughton who is the current Chairman of British Airways PLC and deputy president of the Confederation of British Industry was forced upon the club by the banks. His mission is simple, work alongside the club's existing management team in finding a buyer for the club and gets the banks their money back.
Barclays Capital replaced Rothschild and Merrill Lynch, the Americans' previous choice of bankers, to conduct the search for new investment. Also as expected, and in an indication Hicks and Gillett do not anticipate a swift exit from Anfield after three years at the helm, the co–owners confirmed they have "the full support of its existing bankers [Royal Bank of Scotland and Wachovia] for this process".
Contrary to some of the rumors on your website nobody has come in with anything like an offer that is acceptable. The major stumbling block is the new build for the stadium. All investors have backed away after seeing the current estimate for the final cost.
As well as off field problems there is a major on field problem about to break with a story about Steven Gerrard and his family. These rumors have been going around since 2007 and Gerrard himself spoke to a leading newspaper editor to stop a number of photographs being published at the time. However a number of recent events will lead to these pictures resurfacing and being published, along with new and more damning material. Gerrard has also become aware that some members of the playing staff have a few "private pictures" on their phones which could further endorse the story.
Gerrard is worried about his world cup place and his standing within the Liverpool team. He is also very unhappy with the management as he is in desperate need for a hernia and groin operation. This should have been done early in the year but he was persuaded by the manager to fight on to get the team into the Champions League. Now Gerrard has seen Torres be allowed to under go minor knee surgery so he will be fit to play in the world cup for Spain.
The manager has also given the senior management team a wish list of a number of players (names unknown to me) I can say that a number of agents are not ready to push their clients towards Liverpool until the final champions league place is decided. This is due to the extra bonuses that the players and in some cases the agent can acquire.

MUFC – STRIKERS

Finally, the frontline. SAF realises that Rooney seriously needs support and quality backup, and a clear–out will begin as Michael Owen is released as part of a player–plus–cash deal to grab Jack Rodwell from Everton. Berbatov will be next, £18million to AC Milan or Juventus. Javier Hernandez is in for £10million from Guadalajara and SAF will bleed him in slowly via cup games and substitute appearances in the hopes he can deliver a similar type of performance as Owen in his prime. But, a striker will be signed to compliment Rooney, and the candidates are:

– Karim Benzema (Real Madrid, £18–20million or perhaps a loan deal for a season).
– Luis Fabiano (Sevilla, £10–15million).
– David Villa (Valencia, £25million).
– Hulk (Porto, £15–20million).
– Klaas–Jan Huntelaar (AC Milan, swap).
– Lukasz Podolski (Cologne, swap?)


And the winner is..Podolski, who represents the most cost–effective option, and has a proven international record. He will not play week–in, week–out, but will put in a good shift.

SUMMARY – STRIKERS

OUT
Michael Owen (swap, Everton)
Dimitar Berbatov (£18million, AC Milan)
Mame Biram Diouf (loan, prem team)

IN
Javier Hernandez (£10million)
Lukasz Podolski (swap).

THAT IS ALL

I've heard from a good source at Melwood that Liverpool will get new owners this Summer bu the spending won't be astronomical; like City and Chelsea.

The budget is going to be around £40M plus sales (of which there will only be a couple).

Riera is out for certain, Aurelio's contract is up and Skrtel is on his way out, because Rafa wants to £10M fee he would generate. Add in £7m for Riera and rafa's budget will hit £57M.

He wants a new LB, a top quality centre back, a winger and a striker. There will also be a couple of youth signings, notably Juste Abou from Lens and Mike Havenaarfor from Ventforet Kofu for £1M each.

The left back will be none other than Leighton Baines, for an overpriced £15M. The interest in Piennar was just a smokescreen for this.

The centre back will be either Shawcross or Cahill, either way Rafa will need to shell out the best part of another £15M.

The striker wil be Darren Bent of Sunderland who will go for 'only' £20M due to an escape clause in his contract for any of the traditional big four clubs.

The remaining £7M would only buy Rafa one of Ashley Young's legs, so his cheaper option will be Cole, signing for free on a very lucrative contract. The extra cash will be spent on the kids, including the two I've mentioned already.

So Bent, Cahill, Baines and Cole will ensure Liverpool have one of the highest English contingents of any top class team; meeting the demands likely to be imposed on the Premiership over the next couple of years.

Next season might well see:

MUFC – MIDFIELD

The midfield is the area that United will adjust the most over the summer. SAF will not strengthen his wings this summer, as he is happy with Valencia and Nani and doesn't feel the need to try and outbid the likes of City for Di Maria. Obertan, Park, Giggs will offer cover for the first choice wingers, and Zoran Tosic is likely to be sold – SAF is pleased with how well the Serbian has done in Germany on loan, and this has brought him to attention of many top teams there. If he is sold, it will be after the world cup as fergie looks to get £7–9million for him. However, there is also talk of offering Tosic as a makeweight in a deal for Manuel Neuer the Schalke keeper, or even a swap plus a small fee for Lukas Podolski – a rumour that continues to gather speed.
Danny Wellbeck will be loaned out for 6months once he returns from injury, Fulham are thought to be keen. Tom Cleverly will likely be loaned to a newly–promoted prem team such as West Brom for a full season to earn his stripes. Anderson will be given until January to recover from injury and show signs of worth, as SAF will cash in otherwise with Lyon ahead of the pack willing to pay £12million. Michael Carrick will exit OT, although he's proven his worth over the last couple of years this season he has been left behind by Fletcher and there appears to be no use for both in the same team. United will offer Everton £6million, Carrick AND Owen to snare Jack Rodwell in the summer. Owen Hargreaves will be forced to retire with injury. Finally, the big signing, the long–term successor to Scholes. Front–runners are:
– Yoann Gourcuff (Bordeaux, £20–25million)
– James Milner (Aston Villa, £25million)
– Marek Hamsik (Napoli, £15–20million)
– Joe Cole (Chelsea, free)
– Stephen Ireland (Man Citeh, £15million)
– Luka Modric (Spurs, £25million)
– Stevan Defour (Standard Liege, £15million)
– Miralem Pjanic (Lyon, £10–18million)
– Sotiris Ninis (Panathinaikos, £8–12million)
– David Silva (Valencia, £25million)

SAF will go all–out to snatch Milner or Gourcuff, but should both fail, he will turn his attentions to Defour of Liege – he has long been an admirer of the Belgian and feels he is more affordable and less likely to cause a bidding war. However, the most worrying aspect is SAF wants a CM who will score 10–15 goals a season, and many at OT are unsure if Defour can do this. As a result, if MUFC do not spend big on a striker, then three midfielders will be signed.

SUMMARY – MUFC MIDFIELD

OUT
Owen Hargreaves – injury, retirement.
Danny Wellbeck – loan, Fulham, 6–12months.
Tom Cleverly – loan, WBA, 6–12months.
Rodrigo Possebon – Corinthians, £3million.
Zoran Tosic – Cologne, other German team – £7–10million, dependent on form until summer.

IN

James Milner (A Villa) – £22million.
Stevan Defour (Liege) – £15million.
Jack Rodwell (Everton) – £6million + Owen + Carrick.

STRIKERS WILL FOLLOW

 

23 Apr 2010 14:47:05
MUFC – DEFENDERS

Okay, part two..as I explained in part one, I have access to some info and rumours due to working at Carrington as a groundsman. The defensive situation this summer hinges entirely on Vidic. We have secured Chris Smalling already, and he will be used in all Carling Cup and FA Cup earlier round games alongside Evans, SAF sees this as the future partnership at CB. Vermijl is in from Standard Liege, a tribunal fee should come out around £400,000, a snip really. He will be loaned straight back to the club though for a full season to gain experience. The young Brazilian starlet Dodo is also pretty much a done deal, another tribunal and he will also spend maybe two seasons abroad honing his talents.
Out will go Fabio da Silva on loan until christmas – most likely to Sporting Lisbon, as he is not developing as well as Rafael. De Laet will be used a lot more in cup games.
Now, IF Vidic leaves – and word at Carrington is an agreement has been reached which would make 2010/11 his final season at OT. A new contract is being worked on, but Nemanja wants a new challenge and it's been agreed that if he puts in a final solid season we will sell him without a struggle the following summer. If for some reason this happens this summer, Real Madrid will be the buyer for £24million, and with this money SAF will buy a cheaper CB for around £10–15million, names as of yet unknown.

SUMMARY – OUT
Fabio da Silva (Sporting Lisbon, loan)

IN
Chris Smalling (Fulham, £10million)
Marnick Vermijl (S. Liege, tribunal)

MIDFIELD WILL BE NEXT

M.utd want to offload dimi berbatov..if thy get an offer 0f 15 millian upwards thy will sell.all the news of big money signings is incorrect.in fact ferguson is bringin brazilian adriano back to europe n to old trafford 100%

 

23 Apr 2010 14:28:57
Westbrom willl sig portsmouth duo ricardo rocha and david nugent.rocha will cost around 6ook whils thy will pay around 2 million upfront for nugent with clauses which could add on an extra 2 million.

talks are still on going between westham and albion about the young duo stanislas and hines.its likly both players will move to the hawthorns but if westham go down thy want to keep the pair being as there wages are low n thy wouldn't need to off load them.dimatteo also likes tomkins but is likly to iss out on him with bigger clubs including arsenal still monitoring the young centre half.

theres many free transfers noking about this year and albion will try for young liverpool keeper david martin, on loan star stephen reid and danielle bogdanovic of barnsley.

the last player i no of is siggurdson of reading.westbrom av enquired about how much it would cost them to sign him and dan ashworth and majeskis representatives are in early talks..moore is an opton as part of the deal

MUFC – GOALKEEPERS

This will be a series of posts, as all the information I have would make for one gigantic piece that nobody would bother reading!! I work at Carrington as a general groundskeeper and speak regularly to several fringe first–team players, the following are doing the rounds at OT. Starting with the GK situation:

Van der Sar will make this his final season, and contrary to what many think, he is not guaranteed to be first choice. He will start as no.1, but his real mission is to help his replacement bed in so they are ready entirely come 2011/12 season to be the new keeper at OT.

SAF DOES want to add a new keeper in the summer, and the candidates are:
– Igor Akinfeev (CSKA Moscow, free in January if a deal is struck in summer)
– Hugo Lloris (Lyon, £12–18million)
– David de Gea (A Madrid, £10–20million)
– Manuel Neuer (Schalke, £10–15million)
– Craig Gordon (Sunderland, £10–15million)

Akinfeev would be ideal in terms of being free, and joining midway through the season – however, Chelsea are lining him up as Cech's successor, and the Russian link should seal this. Lloris is likely to end up at Arsenal – the Gunners are gonna offer cash plus Eduardo, which will secure the French keeper. As a result, United will bid for Manuel Neuer this summer and he will share playing time with VDS before taking over as the new no.1 at the beginning of 2011/12. United will fund the move by selling Ben Foster to Birmingham City for around £5.5–6million, and if Kuszczak follows through on his threats to leave unless he gets the jersey for himself, United will look to sell him also with Zenit St Petersburg willing buyers for around £7.5million.

SUMMARY – GOALKEEPERS
OUT – Foster (Birmingham, £6million); maybe Kuszczak (Zenit, £7.5million).
IN – Manuel Neuer (Schalke O4, £12million)

Next I'll shed some light on the defensive situation

 

23 Apr 2010 13:53:00
Diego Penny – Will be going back to Coronel Bolognesi for £50k.

Steven Caldwell – Will sign a new 2yr contract at the end of the month.

Kevin McDonald – Still highly thought of by Brian Laws, but will be sent on loan next season back to Dundee F.C if he does not impress during the pre–season.

Joey Guðjónsson – Will join a low end championship side for free.

Chris McCann – Will sign a contract extension if Burnley go straight back to the PL.

Wade Elliott – Will have his contract extended by another year until the end of the 2012

Chris Eagles – Will stay with Burnley, if a bid of over £2.5m is made Burnley will accept.

Adam Kay – Will sign a new 3yr contract, he will go out on loan next season for three months.

Jack Cork – Brian Laws would like to re–sign Cork for a full season loan, Chelsea will accept if no loan offer comes through from a PL team.

Robbie Blake – Will sign a new 1yr contract at the end of the month.

Steven Thompson – Will sign a new 1yr contract at the end of the month.

David Nugent – Wants to stay in the PL with Burnley, he may join Burnley in the Championship if they are no suitable offers from any PL clubs.

Hot Rumour

Gordon Ramsay rumour to buy Morton is 100% certain – my mates dad's friend picked him up in a taxi from Partick Burgh Halls and took him to Cappielow – not only John Fleck on loas but Rangers will use Morton as a feeder club to get their young players experience with Big Davie Weir moving their as player / coach.
Stevie Smith will sign a 2 year deal when his contract runs out at the summer, providing he passes a fitness test after an operation to reduce the swelling in his chin.

Remember, you heard it here first.

I can confirm meetings have taken place and I understand the purpose are to check on the availability of Rafa Benitez becoming the new manager of Man City.

Bad luck cos he is going to replace Petr Cech.

1) HE IS CLOSING IN ON 30!

2) SEVILLA WILL WANT TO GET SOME MONEY RATHER THAN LETTING HIM GO FOR FREE IN A YEARS TIME!

I HAVE HEARD PODOLSKI COULD BE INVOLVED IN A SWAP DEAL WITH TOSIC? TOSIC HAS BEEN A MASSIVE HIT AT COLOGNE!

Birmingham city will have new owners by the end of next week and the new stadium will Start at the end of the season KRO ,

 

23 Apr 2010 11:19:57
Man United could already have Luis Fabiano lined up this summer with only 1 year left on his contract after his quotes recently. Could get him for a good price and get 2–3 good years out of him. Probably would signal the end of Berbatov's stay. No way we will sign Villa or Silva signed for us as both spanish & Barca and Madrid want a out & out striker & left sided player.
Modric, Veloso, Defour, Moutinho, Diego, Di Maria, Gourcuf, Jovetic, Alexis Sanchez & Da Costa. Apart from Veloso, these are attacking central and left sided players, all of which have been followed by Fergie for a long time.
Possability on any 1 or 2 of these signing in the summer. Mourinho or Gaurdiola to take over from Fergie eventually regardless of all this nonsense of playing style. Man United like most other teams are about results & team ethic. More youngsters to come through next season including Petrucci & Pogba.

Gallas is to sign a contract extension at arsenal. campbell will also stay, but senderos, silvestre and traore will leave. in will come cristian zapata of udinese for 10m. Sagna may be sold to Juventus for £14m, in which case Micah Richards will sign for 8m. Fabianski is sure to depart, with either hart, neuer or adler coming in for around13m. eduardo(7) and simpson(4) will leave and vela will go out on loan, with chamakh coming in for free. hazard will also arrive for 14m. in midfield, merida is leaving for atletico, and wilshere will spend another half season at bolton. moussa sissoko may be signed(11), given ramsey's injury and rosicky's injury and age concerns. expect a cheeky bid for lukaku, but i expect arsenal will be priced out of the market for him, tho u never know.
signingsfor the first team: hart(9m), zapata(10m), Richards(8), hazard(14), sissoko(11), chamakh(free).
signings for the future: galindo, wellington silva(done), lukaku(8), savic(2).

I know a lot of people on this website like to think they are on Championship Manager and just list lots of players that they would LIKE to see at their club – this website is for RUMOURS!

Now for Newcastle Rumours:

We know or its been reported that Chris Hughton will have 15 Million to spend, he knows that he will need more than that, therefore as has already been reported in several papers Steven Taylor will be on his way and possibly Tim Krull (which would be a disaster as he will be a class goal keeper). The only other players to go will be Butt and Pancrate – Hughton wants to keep most of the players he has got now as it has been reported the team spirit in the camp has been the main reason why Newcastle got the title! Hughton will know that this will be vital when entering the first season back in the premiership. Expect two or three signings which will be season loans, freebies and small buys – long gone are the days of big money spending so it will be players like, Gary Neville (Free), Patrick Van Aanholt (Loan) I would also imagine that Hughton will use his links with Spurs to land Danny Rose and Robbie Keane on season loans.

23 Apr 2010 08:01:52
If mancini is publicly stating that he's chasing torres, its simply becasue preliminary inquiries have got nowhere and he's a) trying to shake things up and b) trying to make himself look good. Don't expect any immediate news :–). The tabloid "rafa to take torres with him to Juve" story is purely media speculation.

Lfc's pursuit of a new reserve keeper gathers pace but £5m price tag for wayne hennesey maybe seen as too high

A number of the top EPL teams are also sniffing around Bari's Bonucci with Chavski perceived as most likely bidders

And as for whoever listed about a dozen ins and manure this summer, I'm no fan at I really don't see old rednose making that many changes. Maybe 2 or 3 on top of what's been confirmed – Berba out, maybe Vidic too, new wide midfielder, new striker and new first choice CB needed.

Agent talk:

Arsenal to bid for:

Thomas Sorensen
Mahmadou Sakho
Mahmadou Sissoko
Mouranne Chamakh
Yoann Gourcuff
Christoph Metzelder

Eduardo to Lyon
Vela to Villareal
Fabianski to Newcastle
Gallas to PSG
Silvestre to Toulouse
Rosicky to Leverkusen

Wenger's had enough – going back to French.

This is basically what I would like to see at Liverpool.

Out: Riera 6 – 7 Mil
Caliveri 5 mil
El Zhar 1 mil
Degan 1mill
Nemeth 5 mil
So through sales we 19 mill. Hopefully through new owners we'll get around 20 –30 mil lets say 25.

Ins Jovanovic free
Joe Cole Free (Hopefully)
I rather take Tawio over Kolarov. As Tawio is from a winning team and would be cheaper. But Tawio will be champ league next year and Kolarov won't. to honest either one will do. 14 mill.
Finally a Striker, I doubt we'll get Higuan, Villa or Aguero. Maybe Balotelli ( If he keeps crying in milan) or go english with Bobby Zamora 15 – 20.
Oh and David James on Free

Next year
GK: Reina/James
Rb: Johnson/Kelly/Darby (Step up)
Cb: Carragher/Agger/Srktel/the Greek
Lb Kolarov/Insua
CM: Gerrard/Masherano/Lucas/Aqua
RM Maxi/Yossi/Kuyt
LM: Cole/Babel/Jovanovic
ST: Torres/Zamora/Kuyt/Jovanovic

Fairly Realistic and the following season look to get CB

To the person who said guardiola to arsenal is simply deluded. Also we all know that wenger will not buy a goalkeeper. chamakh and centre back (possibly zapata to be bought. regards, jimmy

Probably not of much interest, but havant and weymouth are keen on signing bognor keeper andy ender.
