I think the holdup on vucinic is Hernandez personally. I'm still yet to hear anything about vuci but have been told Abel is a main target!

Now I really am going :grin:

Sorry Rebrab, are you saying you have not ever heard anything linking us with V.

or that you haven't heard anything regarding how close it is?

I don't recall ever hearing anything about him. But I don't hear about every deal like some - just because I haven't heard about it doesn't mean its not happening.

think i'd rather vucinic,abel is a ballotelli sort of player for me, vuc is more what you see is what you get and i think he'd do better for us

Basically cryptic=attention seeker.

ITKs are good for a giggle but essentially all they do is look at the latest media link and work with that. I would guess no ITK has anything better than a 10% strike rate. They are quick to claim the credit if a deal goes through, but what about the 90% of stuff that is clearly made up? Oh yes, always an excuse!!!

Good for a giggle as I say but it gets pretty tedious after a short while.

Well I'm guessing you won't have to worry about ITK for some time!

I really doubt we were ever in for Benzema. Again like in many of these deals the wages are a massive issue. Plus if he ever did come on the market I think we would be way down the list of potential suitors.

But Real Madrid love to do secret deals with us.

Never heard of Abel Hernandez, though going for a new name wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

There is no way Benzema is leaving Real Madrid. He has gained Mourinho's confidence, the fans want him and was outstanding the second part of last season. He wants to stay and Real want him to stay.
I think the only deal with Real could be for Diarra.
