Um, so let me get this straight... we have essentially just made 15M on the sales of Bassong and Daws... and bought Ade for 5m.

Is Levy the footballing version of snake oil salesman?

That is un-fucking-believeable.

You can understand why other clubs hate doing business with him. They wake up the next morning in a tube station, pants round their ankles and a tenner stuffed up their arse. They slowly come to the realisation that they have just sold half their squad and agreed to pay their wages.

Why would we get Willian and Moutinho?!

Willian just doesn't seem to fit any remit for me - he doesn't score enough goals and he's not proper central midfielder who can pull the strings like Moutinho.

He's a winger who would compete with Bale and Lennon. That's something that we desperately need imo. Nonetheless I'm not too sure about him. Would depend on price.

Because he's a winger.. nothing to do with eachohter? You even said yourself he's not a proper central midfielder hence getting both

Totally different sorts of player...

He's a winger. Competition on the wings is required, IMO. I'd rather have Willian pushing Lennon for a place than, say, Bentley.

Completely different players, aren't they? Surely Willian would be wing cover; I imagine that we'd only be signing him if it's a good deal.

you're a girl. and you made a sex joke?

I'm logging off before I get in a state again.
Are girls not allowed to make sex jokes?

The more shocking aspect of this at all is that females roam the intawebz. I didn't hear of this law being passed. Damn our facist gummint, forcing through laws on the QT.

Now that Ade is in the bag, Mouts is the one I want. Moutinho and I can die a happy man. Anything ohter than that will stonking.

He's not a traditional winger though and one would imagine it could be Rafa's place in the team that's under threat.

In any case, I'm just sceptical of paying big money for someone that hasn't exactly lit up the Ukranian League nor impressed greatly in Europe.

Heh, I seem to spend all my time accidentally making you flustered!:LOL:

So, according to various ITK, we're in for both Willian and Johnson. Those are going to be some well covered wings.

I was ok around women-folk until I was 18, it's been downhill for the 14 years since...

SkySport Italia say we're looking at Stekelenberg and Bojan at Roma - both quality players.
Stekenlenberg would be cheaper than Lloris. Decent keeper. Bojan - no idea why I think this but - has a whiff of GDS mk II about him. How has he done in Italy?

Also, does Bojan not have a buy back clause with Barca. One would have to think if he's had a good couple of seasons they'll be back in for him.

I've really only seen him playing in Europe, and I must say he's looked quality anytime I;ve seen him play. Remember him playing at Craven Cottage - looked class that night.

He's out of contract though isn't he?
