Hopefully that'll be the last Harry to Chelsea nonsense for a while. I still think the only reason he might not be our manager come August is if things don't go well in his trial.

A nice little earner for all the bookies methinks.

I think the latest itk is to prevent me from hanging myself-Llorente, Gervinho and LLoris-wow. Either that or it's to ensure I do hang myself when we sign Parker, Friedel and Carlton Cole.

Llorente and Lloris? I doubt it (as in doubt that we would be succesfull rather than doubting our interest).

Big coup if that came off.

EDIT: Club shop would have to stock up on "L's" if this happened!!

As someone who grew up in Wales, I can't help trying to pronounce them the welsh way - ll is a ckh kind of sound that sounds like you're choking on a chicken bone.

Dan you really seem to believe that there is nothing in this story, when there is.

cannot wait for the ITK from a person who works in the club shop to confirm they have ordered extra L's!!

that'll be the tell-tale sign we are signing Lloris & Llorente

As I've said elsewhere I'm sure Chelsea are looking at Harry. He's done very well for us, he'd work well with the likes of Lampard and Terry and I'm sure he'd normally jump at the chance to go to a bigger club.

But with his trial coming up, the England job soon to be available and the fact that Hiddink is clearly Chelsea's top target (and has said he may be available) I just don't see it happening.

Alot of the rumours are 'it's done...he's going' and that's the bit I don't believe at all.

Yep, that pretty much sums up my feelings on the whole situation aswell Dan.

This is Harry we're talking about, it would probably mean Lua Lua

Lua Lua was yesterday released from Omonoia Nicosia in Cyprus actually. He was terrible even in the Cypriot League, earning boo's from his own fans!

lua lua is a poor mans Defoe. Served his purpose at Portmouth for a time though.

On the Keane itk it would be a good move for all party's involved. The way they play is will suit him

Please confirm you changed your photo in the sig from Redknapp to Ancelotti and back again...either that or I need to lay off the glue!

I think you're seeing things your brain wants you to see.

Yes it was Carlo during last weeks betting frenzy and just changed it back this afternoon.

As someone who grew up in Swansea with them as my second team (loyalty issues for the first time in my life this year!), Keane would definitely suit their system if he's still got it in him. I've been to see Swansea a bunch of times this year, including the playoff final, and they play really good passing football, on the deck, distributing from the back, lots of one-twos and through balls. I'm not sure Keane is still a Premiership player but he'd definitely suit the way the Swans play far more than West Ham.
