According To The Beeb..

[Elliott]

Could be another tidy profit after getting 5m for Siddy? Maybe we should snap up these free transfers more often!? :)

[Gem]

If true, we've paid for Deco and got some left over for his wages :)

[evissy]

Nice to see we are getting some money out of other clubs. Hope we also sell our other goes and not put them on loan. I still don't fully understand the loan deal although someone explained it to me some time ago. I guess I'm not that bright :) .

Hopefully next up is Boulahrouz and SWP.

[Barn]

Bloody hell to think I wanted Hughes as our manager????

[Kerry]

I'd be glad enough if there is any club under this sky who want to sign Ben-Haim ... I'd think to donate him to any club (and not paying his wages anymore) would be economically wiser than rather keeping him. And if we get some money out of a deal to compensate the compensation of Avram and Ten-Cate and the transfer fees for Deco ... then even better!

*goes off to get the flags out*

:o

[Maksimov]

I couldn't find anything about Ben Haim on the Beeb website. :o

[bennyboy1976]

Me either, but if true would be good news.

[Elliott]

It was on their gossip column, but it look's to have since be removed... :o

Cursed it!

Also mentioned, is that Maka may still be going to PSG.

[Maksimov]

It was on their gossip column, but it look's to have since be removed... :)

Now that's a dodgy rumour... :o ...got removed from the gossip column.

[Alan]

The Guardian and Daily Mail are reporting this story.

[TheWestwayWonder]

Christ, fingers crossed that this one holds true

We will finally be doing some good business, albeit at the cost of keeping relative driftwood on the roster. Lets not forget, though, that an even better manager than Mark Hughes first wanted TBH here. The guy must be capable of something in the right role (no waterboy jokes, please)

[Jimboola69]

A useless lumbering meatbag.

Made 'Emerson Thome' look like a mobile defender!

[mad_mac]

Thanks for doing us a favour Sparky

[chelzdude]

This better be true...

[Jimboola69]

Linked again at £5m to City in Sunday papers.... :mellow:

[Elliott]

Tal could still be on his way!!! (PLLLLLEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEE?!!)

[TheWestwayWonder]

I think there is too much smoke not to be fire here: same player, destination and fee. CMON SPARKY

[gustyheadhunter]

i hope its true cause not only would we be gettin another healthy profit for a dummy who should never have been alowed to look at a chelsea shirt let alone wear one but i dont think big petr could handle anymore of his 'tackles'

[Chelsea FC Champions]

City open Ben Haim talks

[paulo]

Looks like he's signed, fantastic deal for us.

[BLUENUT]

Looks like he's signed, fantastic deal for us.

he's gone :D

[Englishman]

£5m for Sid, £5m for TBH, hopefully a sizeable fee for Drogba. Nice to see us doing some good business for once.

[andy]

Good old Sparky.. once a blue always a blue :D

[loz]

Moved into players forum as now confirmed. Good move for him as he is probably back at the right level for him. I wish him all the best. I know a lot of folk have it in for him over the Cech incident but that was just one of those training ground accidents that happen from time to time.
