Bellamy coming back to us, watch this space

[ONO]

Bale had a medical at Spurs yesterday and is expected to sign today. £6m rising to £10m.

[The Future]

Hreidarson(sp?)has signed for Portsmouth on a free.

Samuel has signed for Bolton on a free as well.

The Sneijder rumour strong? That'd be great.

Well you always get the rumour that seems too good to be true, but why not. If anyone can bring in Sneijder it is O'Neill.

The Guardian had an article on it, and I've seen it in a number of websites as well. How much would you expect to pay for Sneijder? I was thinking he'd cost around the £8m mark at least.

According to The Sun this morning, Roy Keane has made a £2m bid for Jussi Jaaskelainen.

The other big story is that United are apparantly going to offer £29.5m and Saha for Berbatov.

[IAceI]

I'm not surprised if we're going after a goalkeeper, Ward isn't going to be able to cut it in the Premiership, even though he help get us here.

Marcell Jansen to Bayern

Matt Jackson to Watford

[destroyed]

Owen Hargreaves-Man Utd > not sure that its official yet, but apprently he's just gotta sign on the dotted line.

[alldaws1]

Spurs have completed the signing of Gareth Bale according to the BBC website. It's an initial payment of £5m that could rise to £10m.

[therockbox]

And people wonder why managers dislike signing British talent.

[Lineker]

Watford have comfirmed the signing of Mart Poom from Arsenal on a year deal.

[wozzi]

Liverpool have signed Hungarian teenagers Krisztian Nemeth and Andras Simon.

Arsenal have signed Legia Warsaw goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski.

According to the NOTW yesterday, Big Sam wants Beckham on loan during the MLS close-season. Becks is apparantly game, as it'll help him keep his name in the England window. Should be fun if it comes true.

[Guest Ringo Masterson]

Craig Bellamy costing 12 mil to whoever will have him is lunacy, how exactly does playing badly for a year double your value? Also, Benitez wanting to sign Malouda isn't a good idea. For one, he's a diving tool in the Drogba mold and he's gonna get lots of stick. Also, while he's skilled with the ball and his crosses are pretty good, he's slow as hell and he's a lightweight. This won't cope well in the Premiership.

I also still hope Spurs get Kaboul, because the guy's clearly a big fish in a small pond, he's been literally raping strikers away from the ball in France this season, and he's the type of player that screams orders at others, something Tottenham have been lacking for a long time now.

Oh and I hope we get Nani too

[Lord Nibbler]

Well you might be free to sign Nani, since United have agreed to sign Anderson from Porto. Don't know how we managed to keep that quiet, but I'm pleased as punch.

To quote a Portuguese Liverpool fan "This is disgusting. This guy is the biggest talent in Europe next to Messi. I hope he doesn't settle in England."

*EDIT* Scratch that, I think we've agreed a deal for Nani too.

[Guest Ringo Masterson]

Anderson? Damn. If that is true, I'll be impressed. The guy was outstanding at the under 20s, and yeah, while he plays against shitter opposition, he's more impressive than Messi is IMO.

lol, his wiki has been vandalized: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_Lu%C..._Abreu_Oliveira

Though, in Anderson, SAF has a replacement for both Giggs and Scholes depending where he plays him really.

Don't expect another Ronaldo. From all the wingers who came out of Sporting's youth squad(Luís Figo, Ricardo Quaresma, Simão, Cristiano Ronaldo), Nani is the worst.

[FLiam]

But he is still pretty fucking good.

This sucks. Hope Wenger is taking note, we need to sign some players this summer to compete with this lot.
