That's like half your squad right?

[Jordie]

noo lol
we have the biggest squad in league one but they are our key players
partly the reason we have no money because we have players who arent playing on massive wage bills

[Aflux]

I wouldn't be surprised to see Berbatov go - hopefully out the Premiership, the arrogant bugger.

Story from BBC SPORT:

[Aflux]

First off, what does Avram want with Kevin Doyle?

Hodgson will have to be lucky to get Kewell.

I think Crouch will go, not sure where though. Probably Portsmouth, imagine Crouch & Utaka!

Bent won't go either.

[Jordie]

leicester set to sign northamptons bradley johnson

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/l/leicester_city/7168139.stm

[Jordie]

qpr rumoured to have agreed a 1.5 million deal with derbys rob earnshaw

[Affreux]

Titus Bramble - Liverpool Chelsea Man u Arsenal

All joking aside Mashcerano will sign perm for liverpool

Kewell is not going
Crouch will go to Man city or aston villa
Riise is staying at anfield

Liverpool offering 8m for real madrid's Gabriel heinze
Also liverpool bringing in Baptista on season Loan

[Jordie]

influental bristol city midfielder marvin elliot is rumoured to be interesting pompey but he says he is happy at city

but im sure like all players pompey will offer a nice big juicy wage package and he will join them

we were close to signing him in the summer we've obviously missed out on a real bargain here as they got him on a free

[Minstrels]

Mashcerano going to Manchester City for 21 million.

[360]

Hinkel has signed for celtic
Celtic set to sign McFadden
Celtic chase Barry Robson
Celtic chase Coelho

[Affreux]

Mashcerano going to Manchester City for 21 million.

1. He loves life at liverpool
2. hes adorded by the fans
3. he wishes to stay at liverpool
4. hes contracted till the summer
5. Liverpool have got the 17m
6. he won't go to a premier leuage side

[Grainger@CUFC]

I'd have thought Mascherano would go to Liverpool more than anywhere else. Also, if Liverpool sign Heinze they're stupid cause I still think he's awful.
Still only Keogh and Anyinsah on the agenda for us. Showing interest in Scott Dobie too, but wages seem to be an obstacle :S.

[Geraint]

Quite a lot of Arsenal rumours (buying).

Sergio Asenjo - Real Vallodid
Luke Freeman - Gillingham
Nikolay Dimitrov - Levski Sofia
Yohan Gouruff - Inter Milan
Karim Benzema - Lyon
Dani Parejo - Real Madrid Castillo

I'm not too sure about Benzema but I have heard lots of rumours about the other youngsters.

EDIT - BEST RUMOUR EVER: ADEBAYOR TO MADRID FOR £100M

Good news for you Jordie, your being linked with ex-Wigan goalkeeper John Filan on a pay-as-you-play basis.

I was searching sites on the internet.

[Aflux]

You know, Wenger has £71m to spend in January and I bet he hardly spends any of it.

[PlKEY-ARMY]

what simmzy said,

our luke freeman has gone to the day out, to have a look around at: newcastle, west ham and arsenal its been confirmed aswell.
hes a good player for his age great first touch got pace got strength everything really
we are lookin for more than 300k which is good if we manage to sell him more money for some players and pack them journeymen we have home, kelvin jack for instance hasnt played a game in around a year but we still have him? whilst been with us the amount of injuries is pathetic waste of money

[Swp.]

QPR signed akos buzsaky,

Real madrid are apprentley going to bid that old man u defender and baptista for xabi alonso

QPR signed matthew connolly

:S:S:S

[Aflux]

:S:S:S
Haha, I'd go for that - Xabi Alonso for Heinze & Baptista - DEAL

[bigdavecox90]

Slightly confused as to who the "old man u defender" is? :S

[Aflux]

It's Gabriel Heinze, the guy who turned down a move to Liverpool in the summer so I'd actually be surprised if the deal went through - especially since I can't really see Liverpool finding a use for fatty fatty boom boom Baptista.

[bigdavecox90]

Gabriel Heinze is ace, even though he is ex-rag, I'd still welcome him at City! :)

[Simmzay]

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/gossip_and_transfers/7169158.stm

Today's news...

"Ronaldo has made up his mind"? I somehow doubt it.

[Minstrels]

Oh I do hope Ronaldo goes, without him Man United play crap! :D

Edit: Manchester City have been told by French club Toulouse that striker Johan Elmander, who is also wanted by Tottenham, is not for sale. (Telegraph)

Manchester City forward Rolando Bianchi is wanted by Italian side Torino, on a loan move with a view to a permanent transfer. (The Times)

ULULULLULULULUULUULLULULL, I like Bianchi ;<

[Aflux]

In all honesty, the Telegraph isn't a gossip paper but I'd be surprised to see Ronaldo go considering he's a midfielder and he's scored 13 goals this season thus far.

[e5]

Berba should leave tottenhm, he obviously wants to.

[fweggy]

I agree with elliott

[Aflux]

Berba should leave tottenhm, he obviously wants to.
Out of England please, for the love of the world please.

[Minstrels]

Out of England please, for the love of the world please.

He should well play for LA Galaxy.

[Simmzay]

If there's one player I'd love to see at Arsenal it's Benzema. It's a shame his price tag is so high.

[bigdavecox90]

I wouldn't mind Berbatov coming to City, it just seems he has a crap attitude like Anelka :)

[Hoodstar]

It's Gabriel Heinze, the guy who turned down a move to Liverpool in the summer so I'd actually be surprised if the deal went through - especially since I can't really see Liverpool finding a use for fatty fatty boom boom Baptista.

So would I since you can only transfer a player once within a normal season.. I believe?

[Jordie]

i think so but that happened with masherano and the fa gave liverpool permission to sign him on loan?

[Hoodstar]

i think so but that happened with masherano and the fa gave liverpool permission to sign him on loan?

Hm.. but the legality of his contract was all up in the air, think they preferred for him to be put under a proper one at Liverpool than a dodgy one like his west ham one.

And do loans count as signings? Think you're able to sign a player then allow him to be loaned out but not officially transfer to two clubs over the course of 1 full season.

[Affreux]

It's Gabriel Heinze, the guy who turned down a move to Liverpool in the summer so I'd actually be surprised if the deal went through - especially since I can't really see Liverpool finding a use for fatty fatty boom boom Baptista.

Ok please get your fact's right.
Heinze did not turn liverpool down as he wanted to go. - check skysports -
Man u turned down liverpool that is why Heinze and liverpool and man u all went to court as Heinze had a contract from Man u saying he can leaving to anyteam for 8m and liverpool offered that. But man u won the court case so he was banned from going to liverpool in the summer.
And i think Baptista is if he comes going to be a stand in if we dont get mashcerano

[Swp.]

QPR sign patrick agyemang

[PlKEY-ARMY]

QPR sign patrick agyemang

[Jordie]

luton skipper chris coyne rejects offer from colchester united

dave edwards
dean brill

highly unlikely that they will all stay loyal so i only see one way


DOWN

[danny1541]

Leeds are close to signing Dean Morgan arent they? Anyone know anything about him? I heard he has a lot of talent just lazy at times. Only what i have heard.

[PlKEY-ARMY]

[Minstrels]

I heard Inter aren't going to bid for Elano because he's out of there price range! ;>

[PlKEY-ARMY]

gillingham have secured permanent signins from loanees adam miller and john nutter for an undisclosed fee, these two have highly impressed the gaffer and everyone else at gillingham well for me and everyone on the messageboards, decided not to extend/sign shabaz baidoo contract so hes gone back to qpr :)

[edible]

we're suppose to be getting dan gosling from plymouth.

[Alan_Carr]

Our Midfielder Brad Johnson looks set to sign for Leeds (playin them today, funny eh) for around £350,000 + Add-ons etc.

Cant wait till he leaves, so the gaffer can bring in some new players.

DAMN!

Tbh, i wanted him to go to you, cos you offered apparently around the £350k mark, and that would of been decent enough for us.

And yeah, i heard about him messing you about, cos he was meant to play for us when we played you on saturday, but he didnt, so he's 100% gna leave us :)

Apprently what he is doing is getting a contract off Leeds and then going around the other intrested clubs and asking them if they can give him a better deal. Wise has told him to think about it over weekend though so might still be on mate.
