mad_mac Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Ok I'll start a similar thread in here that I started (but it was then credited to bennyboy) in the Rumours section. I think it will be interesting to see what our rivals are, and are not doing in the transfer window. So far, Citeh (not a rival this past season, but you never know for next) have signed Barry from Villa (who looked like they might be contenders for a CL spot this past season). The one thing that made me put this in here as part of our closest rivals watch, is that Liverpool didn't get him. I think they offered, or were told they'd need to pay, about $20 million for him and then Citeh get him for $12. Another thing about this transfer, is it seems as if Barry is very much a Sparky type player...so maybe Sparky is sticking around. Any other news on Manure, Liverscum, Tottensh*te, Arse-nil, etc. Post them in here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheva Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) I heared Liverpool are making a bid for film star Bruno as a mirror replacement for Fernando Torres if he gets injured next season, Rafa is defaintly pulling one out of bag. City are being linked with Eto'o and Tevez. Edited June 4, 2009 by Sheva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Paper talk at the weekend linked Tottenham with that footballing God Djbril Cisse. For once 'arry apears to have set his sights on a credible target. A perfect match methinks. A sh*t player, for a sh*t club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad_mac Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Santa Cruz to leave blackburn and head back to work with Hughes at Citeh. I really though Citeh might get shot of Hughes this season, and bring in a top European Manager along with a lot of top european names.....but so far we've hardly heard a pip from them!! hardly a "big" signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aChelseaSupporter Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 (edited) Tottenham also linked with Robben and Huntelaar...Wouldn't like to see any of them in a white shirt :unsure: (Ironic I know) Edited June 20, 2009 by aChelseaSupporter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clubhappy Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Arsenal will lose Fabragas [hopefully] , Liverpool will hopefully go bargain basement and sign the next Carlton Palmer, Torres will piss off in the Jan transfer window if there lying in 5th and struggling in the C.L., Tevez wants to be Man yooos highest paid player so that should see him on his bike to us , Sunderland chasing Robbie Keane and poor Motherwell face a season with Stan Staunton in charge .

Ruh Buh Juh Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Read yesterday that Arsenal have signed some 23 year old centre back from Ajax LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Read yesterday that Arsenal have signed some 23 year old centre back from AjaxLINK Yep and on the basis of that they are willing to sell Toure to Man City. Surely Wenger must have learnt just how weak his overall squad has been over the past two or three seasons? He should be building depth into their squad not replacing like for like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be building depth into their squad not replacing like for like its a bit ridiculous isnt it. last season they struggled for defenders so they go out and buy a defender but then let one of their best defenders leave. madness.

g3.7 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 its a bit ridiculous isnt it. last season they struggled for defenders so they go out and buy a defender but then let one of their best defenders leave. madness. toure is awful. found out to be an athlete and not much more. I can't imagine many arsenal fans would be that sorry to see him leave (other than the fact he was there when they won things and he had a good season five years ago).
