Kenwynne Jones to Sunderland for £6m. He was really shit on Southampton FM 05/06.

AND YAKUBU HAS COMPLETED HIS MOVE YESSSSSSS

[IAceI]

Well, £6m sounds like a lot, but, hopefully he does well so I'll wait to pass judgment. We have money to spend, teams realise that so we'll just see how it pans out, hopefully quite well. He looks like a good one for the future though I have to hope.

Here's to hoping.

No surprise to see Yakubu granted the work permit and complete the signing, hope he does well.

[Vincent K. McMahon]

Abdoulaye Faye and Habib Baye are expected to join Newcastle tomorrow.

[Guest Psyence]

Not happy at all to see Yakubu go to one of our rival clubs but that's a transfer fee that really shows his worth.

Same can not be said for Sunderland buying Jones for £6m. Then Ian Harte. Jesus.

Anelka isn't going anywhere.

Bolton striker Nicolas Anelka has ended speculation over his future by signing a new contract that will keep him at the club until 2011.

Anelka, 28, has been linked with a move away from the Reebok, with several Premier League clubs interested.

But he said: "I seem to have been linked with every club in the country of late, but my heart is with Bolton.

The apocolypse is coming. :blink: Le Sulk showing commitment?

Gravesen is back at Everton on a one year loan.

Great news for me, he was superb in the last six months at us before he went to Madrid. He's still only 31 so hopefully he still has it in him. I'm really happy.

[therockbox]

Oh good, now I can get him and Carsley muddled up again.

[IAceI]

I'm not surprised to see Graves back, he should never have left in the first place.

[ONO]

He had the chance to play in the Champions League and with one of the biggest teams in Europe, of course he wasn't always destined to start but there ya go.

Hey, remember when we made fun of Wigan for wanting Titus Bramble and Villa for wanting Zat Knight?

Two words: lol liverpool.

Probably a load of rubbish, since Benitez has said today that there won't be anymore signings.

No actual quotes relating to Boumsong, either.

[ONO]

Villa will complete the deal for Curtis Davies within the next few hours.

£6m + Stern John.

Jesus, I'd rather have kept John. Jones is good but over-rated IMO. Not worth that money, £3m at the very most.

[alldaws1]

Villa will complete the deal for Curtis Davies within the next few hours.

Which could be worth up to £15m apparently. Word is, though, that the first year is a loan so the money won't have to be paid until next season.

Fulham have bought Dejan Stefanovic for 1million or so, subject to a work permit.

[ONO]

Villa sign Davies..on loan with a view to a permanent move next summer.

Why loan? =/

[Baddar]

Portsmouth sign Johnson from Chelsea.

Marcus Bent moves to Wigan on Loan for the rest of the season from Charlton.

Either you can't afford the fee they're asking for at the minute or you just want to see how he goes. If he plays and sucks or is injured all the time, the reported £9m will have been a waste.
