––––– POMPEY NEWS ––––––

With Harry Redknapp leaving Pompey to spurs, Pompey are going to be under attack with harry wanting to boost up the spurs side bringing in players from the south coast.

Niko Kranjcar – £10 mill
Lassana Diarra – £21 mill
Jermaine Defoe – £18 mill
Glen Johnson – £15 mill

Tony Adams is adamant about keeping these players, if portsmouth are to be a top flight team. But however the south coast club are enduring strong economic problems, struggling to have enough money, to lure players to saty at the club or bring players in.

Although there have been rumours about Arab Billionaires interested in buying the club with Gaydamac looking to sell up.

In the January transfer window Tony Adams is looking to bring players in:

Jermaine Pennant – Liverpool
Theo Wallcot – arsenal
Arron Lennon – spurs
Jermaine Jenas – spurs
Giovanni – hull
dirk kuyt – Liverpool

But there needs to be some sales done to get the players to get the cash flowing in:

Diarra is the most likely going to join Redknapp at spurs for probably £21 Million, defoe is also in the list to go to spurs but i don't believe he will join his former club.

Kranjcar is another player with a strong possibility of leaving with interest from wenger, redknapp, and benitez. however portsmouth wint let him go that easily, there will be a big price on his head.

these are all truth from a pompey player at fratton park anonymous
  Everton will step up in their chase for Darren Fletcher with a 7 million bid
  Fabregas will only leave Arsenal if we do not win anything this season, as he said in the summer. If he does leave, it will be to one of Barca and Real Madrid for around 60 mil (yes he is worth that). If he is sold to Barca, we will demand Yaya Toure in return (if we do not sign him in January), if we do then we will demand Iniesta. If he is sold to Madrid, we will demand Mohammed Diarra in return. Adebayor is going nowhere at least for another season as he has just signed a new 4 year deal in the summer. Clichy is going nowhere as he has signed a new contract in the summer. Sagna is going nowhere as he is happy at the club and only signed a year ago. Toure is going nowhere as his brother Yaya will be joining the club soon. Walcott, van Persie and Nasri are all happy at the club. The most likely to leave is William Gallas, as his attitude could cause conflict amoungst the team. If he is sold, we will sign a solid replacement and Toure will be given the armband.

The Arsenal Know It All
  To the person that said "fabregas yes hes gud but not worth 65 million if he is worth that torres is worth abt 100 billion" i dare think how much kaka and Ronaldo are worth because they are 100times better then torres. anyways on to the rumour i have heard West brom might try a cheeky loan bid for Manucho in january to boost their fire power and tottenham could try to raid man utd for evans and foster to sure up their leaky defence and goalie position
  MON has already tied up a deal to sign a mega star midfielder from Spain, a current spainish international. Will come out in the papers in late Dec if my source is correct. Also Rafa will make another move for Barry, but Gareth is more settled again now and is disappointed that Liverpool didnt make more of an effort to sign him in the close season.
  Due to the recent bust up in the arsenal dressing room, the players who we love (arsenal 1st team), will disband – adebayor – roma (23 mill)
fabregas – Real madrid (28 mill)
Clichy – valencia (12 mill)
this will happen in the next transfer window many more players will leave and the harmony of the team will be broken

  All Forest fans. . I told you that Cole was leaving and now I can confirm that Bent is on his way from Birmingham on loan to add firepower.Dan the ever so Main Man.
  Gareth Bale can't command a fee of higher than £10m if he goes to one of the big four. This clause was put in his contract by his agent when he signed for Spurs. So for the "bin dipper hater" before you slag Rafa get your facts right. Bin Dippers top of the league.
  ––––AFC––––Arsenal will make a £15million double swoop on Standard Liege for Steven Defour and Axel Witsel.Arsene Wenger will also move for Leeds Utd youngster Fabian Delph.
  Thirdtimelucky matias Fernandez plays for villareal i think u mean manuel fernandes and bojan is not worth 20 million diego is not worth 30 million inestia wud be abt 25 million moutinho wud cost more than 14 million coz they wanted 19 million off everton and no 1 in the world would pay 65 million for fabregas yes hes gud but not worth 65 million if he is worth that torres is worth abt 100 billion
  Liverpool have been linked with scweinstiger (spelling) and fred (the striker that plays for Lyon)both on frees at the end of the season as their contracts are up at the end of the season we have been recently linked with xavi of Barcelona and Sergio Ramos of real Madrid because they are both currently unhappy expect a bid for Sergio aguero in the summer. we have also been linked with arjen robben of real madrid the spainish newspaper marca have said that rafa enquired about robben over the summer he could come 2 us because he won't have trouble settling in with kuyt and babel and many reserves are dutch but i cant see this happening after the arrival of albert reria would rafa waste 8 million he could afford to if sheik mohammad al rhaktoon(spelling the 1 who recently ditched dic 2 make a bid 4 us) takes over

  The thing about Kris Boyd going to Nottingham Forest is perfect. Wonderful striker, just what we need! Steven Fletcher would be good too. Having Cole gone, I hope there is enough money to attract at least one of these players.
  Blackburn rovers search for a right winger will end in the january transfer window as he will sign alexis sanchez 8–10mil or jermaine pennant 5mil.
villanuevas loan deal will be made permiment.
ince will try and sign emanuelson from ajax or real madrids marcelo for 13mil.
he will sign castro for 8mil or fucile for 6mil.
  To the person who said gabby n Barry aren't going to the emirates for 27 million is correct, they're going for 27 million PLUS THE 8MILLION RATED NICKLAS BENDTDNER– as stated in the rumour (feel free to read the whole rumour.)
Villa wanted 18 million for barry but they know they're not getting it.
  LIVERPOOL
JANUARY

Ins:

Rafinha (8million)
Dario Srna (9.5million)

Outs:

Arbeloa – Atletico Madrid (5million)
Plessis – Stoke (Loan)
Pacheco – Sporting Gijon (Loan)

  Barcelona will sign two players next summer – Cesc Fabregas and Karim Benzema. Expect Fabregas to move to Barca with YaYa Toure, Henry and £4m going the other way and Benzema to cost £30m from Lyon
  Liverpool are trying to pull off two sensational transfers.
Mario Balotelli £12–15M
Ashley Young £18M + Arbeloa

Also in the summer expect a move for. .
Sergio Aguero £35–38M
and a defensive partner for cara. .
Aislan £10.5M
Cristián Zapata £7M+ Dossena (Who used to play for Udinese).

LIVERPOOL TO WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE!!!!
  Arsenal need to strengthen big time in January. A centre mid is essential this will be one of Barry (16mil), Toure (10mil), Toulalan (10mil), Miguel Veloso (20mil) or Nigel De Jong(6mil). These are in order of likeliehood however there is a small chance of us getting Hargreaves for a bargain 12mil. A defender is the next January purchase, this will probably be Alexis(6mil) Alboil (8mil) or Pepe (15mil) (also in order of likeliehood). The final January signingn will be Gomis(10mil) from St. Ettienne to replace the extrodinarily useless Bendter(7mil) who will be off to Middlesborough as soon as Arsene can get him a train ticket.
In the summer if we have not one any trophies then Fabregas and Adebayor will go. Fabregas will go to Barcelona for Iniesta (rated 20mil), Bojan (also rated 20mil) and 10mil. If Barca don't agree to this Wenger will force them to pay around 65mil for Fabregas. If Barca do pay 65mil then Wenger will splash out on Diego(30mil) and Villa (30mil) or Benzema (33mil) . Adebayor will go to whoever pays him the most for the most we can rip them off for (probably 30mil). Bojan will replace him. An attacking midfielder/winger will also come in either January or the summer it will be one of Matias Fernandez (14mil) as he still is not a Valencia regular but is AMAZING, Moutinho (14mil) he is better than his current club, Kranjcar(10mil) no explanation needed, Da silva or Van Der Vaart are expensive options (aroun 25mil each) but are likely as Ade sale would fund them.
Thanks for reading,

  After only 2 games in charge Harry is clear he needs a new right back and a new goalkeeper.
Expect a 5mill bid for Boruc from Celtic and a loan bid for Evans from Man Utd.
  Every now and again a rumour pops up and ends up being true. I remember laughing on here when I read about Keano heading off to the bin–dippers a long while before the issue came up and when it did it was a bitter pill to swallow.

But as for some of the others fantasies on here . . Bale has got two legs and the ability to kick a ball so Benitez will definitely be interested but it will be for a lot lot more than 10 mill . . more like 16–18 mill at the very least . . because with Ekotto heading off somewhere we will be short in the left back department and with this in mind Harry could end up making a move for Bridge but I sincerely hope not.

We paid over the odds for Hutton and a move away is possible but he won't be going anywhere for half price . . and seeing that Chris G is still learning his trade, old 'Arry might sound out Johnson.

We won't be in the market for Defoe (thank God !)but Diarra in a swap for cash and Zokora and possibly Huddlestone is more than likely.

And as Modric to Birmingham . . hmmm, this could very possibly happen, especially if he gets lost driving around London and ends up on the M40 !
  Barnsley are after bent from Birmingham city on loan then signing for a year when the loan deal ends in january
  Leory Lita is to rejected Norwich in favour of joing Crystal Palace in a sawp deal involving Crystal Palace midfielder Ben Watson

100% true

from Matt–NCFC
  To the person who commented on my rumour regarding Defoe and Diarra moving to Pompey, I have read that Redknapp has said that Defoe and Diarra are his top prioroties in the transfer window and that he will be given 20 mil to spend and he will try to use it to spend on th 2 pompey players. This is something I have read not something I have made up. If Redknapp fails to sign these players he will continue his pursuit of the pair further into the summer.

Thanks,
Ade25
  ". . Another Part Of The Deal Will Be To Make Michael An Embassador For Liverpool When He Retires". .
Couldnt help but laugh at his post, the lad ran off on us and gave some stupid excuse about his agent not being around, sorry Rafa is right not to bring him back and how he must regret it now. Sorry Mike but its you and Joey Barton from here on in.
  To the person who said gabby n barry will both go to the gunners for £27 mil, did you even read the papers over the summer? villa rate barry alone in the region of £18 mil plus and with his performances this season so far is proving his valuation and then to value gabby at less than £9 mil when the likes of kitson cost clubs £5.5 mil is insane if the deal was to go thru which is unlikely it would need to be in the region of £35 mil plus minimum, ( the kind of money arsenal havn't got). maybe barry will leave to the highest bidder at the end of the season if a contract can't be agreed before then, thus depending on cl football being played at villa park.

villa will look for a defencive mid in jan as villa can't hold a lead at the moment, linked players will include huddleston (spurs), john o'shea (man u).

we will also look for a forward to replace harewood who will leave again to the highest bidder in jan, likely replacements are; ameobi (newcastle), anichebi(everton). both strong and fast with potential.
  Bolton will replace the much loved Gary Megson with the former Derby boss Billy Davies. He will target Juninho,Tyrone Mears and Lupoli to rescue the Trotters.
