The 2012 Summer Transfer Window thread

[The Quasi Juice]

Berba is going to Zenit probably. I would have liked to have seen him at a club like QPR, I think they have the money.

Gaston Ramirez to Southampton for 11.8 mil apparently, he says they offered him loads of money.

[Baddar]

Sir Alex and RVP news conference on SSN at 2pm.

[If_You_Wanna_Be_The_Man]

Ramirez to Southampton has come out of left field

[Jimmy]

Na, they've been linked for a while. Strange he'd choose em over Spurs and Liverpool, but money talks.

Ramirez to Southampton has come out of left field

Thats because he likes to cut inside

[Jimmy]

never change

[The Future]

Good to see Fletcher looking in good spirits too!

QPR sure are spending shitloads of cash on instant success, most of their purchases have no re-sale value.

[Sam]

Are Southampton rich?

[Starvinho]

RVP has been given #20, Berba keeps #9 then.

[Starvinho]

Berbatov to Milan is the latest rumour I'm hearing. Apparently his agent is in Milan discussing a possible deal.

[HailtotheYo]

RVP has been given #20 ...

Salt in the wound (20 is my number since I was a kid) .... jeebus.

Wilshire is supposed to be getting the 10, assuming of course he actually steps on the field in his uniform this year

[Lineker]

Blackpool have re-signed Wigan striker Nouha Dicko on a season-long loan.

Na, they've been linked for a while. Strange he'd choose em over Spurs and Liverpool, but money talks.

Not sure if Rodgers wanted him. Could very well have been a Dalglish target. There was a big interest in players from Uruaguay (Suarez, Coates and we affiliated with a club over there) while he and Comoli were around.

Fulham boss Martin Jol has confirmed Clint Dempsey wants to leave and they will sell him for the right price.

Jol said the United States forward was not in the squad for Saturday's match against Norwich.

He told a pre-match news conference: "If we get the right price for Clint we will sell him. If not, he will stay."

Dempsey pulled out of Fulham's pre-season training camp in Switzerland and Jol said he had not been involved with the London club for a month.

Jol added: "I would like to keep him, but I think it's impossible. It's a sad and an almost embarrassing situation."

Jol warned the club would sell Dempsey - but not at any price.

"I can assure you that our chairman is strong enough. At first we didn't want to get rid of him, later on we had to change our position.

"But our view is that we won't let Clint Dempsey go on the cheap, that's for sure."

Tony Pulis says that Stoke City are still interested in signing free agent Michael Owen.

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert says he is waiting to see if he can sign Tottenham's Jermain Defoe and Stoke's Kenwyne Jones.

Former Blackburn and Crystal Palace striker Shefki Kuqi has joined Hibernian on a one-year deal.

[DavidMarrio]

Supposedly according to some rumours, Alex Song leaving Arsenal is going to be confirmed this weekend or Monday.

Also I wish we'd just hurry up and get Dempsey.

[Dingle]

Defoe to Villa and Harry Kane to start for Spurs ?

[Adam]

Are Southampton rich?

Yes, they are.

[Colly]

Is Modric as good as gone? Just trying to decide on Gylfi for my fantasy team.
