True but Im just using that info to connect the dots as even Huntelaar quashed the Arsenal rumours last month but so far Gomez has been injured all season and look better without him and Pizzaro will be 35 next year so in the summer Huntelaar going to Bayern starts to look a possibility especially if they want cut back their expenditure

Am i right in thinking that the Bayern president publicly stated that Gomez was not as good as everybody thought?

Is there seriously ANYTHING left for AVB to learn about Moutinho at this point? I imagine he knows everything right down to which film he last cried at, that mortifying time aged 12 when he called his teacher 'Mum' and which side he dresses!:confused:

Exactly what i thought, perhaps he was there to talk him into catch up with him, just on a friendly basis, nothing kinky :cautious:

Heh, yeah, to hang around the dressing room and make sad puppy eyes at him?

Or maybe he just said he was going scouting because he wanted to stick his Eurostar and match tickets on his Spurs expense account...;)

JJ also said we had 10% chance of getting Moutinho so that puts that to rest

I was watching them last night and I think there is a better chance of me signing them for my sunday league side than them ending up at spurs.

Yes I know, I'm also at a place of recognising that we won't sign anyone of real bona-fide quality in January time so was more a momentary day dream lapse than expectation.

In all fairness though, I doubt AVB would take a night off to simply watch a game when we have an advance/no advance in Euro League game on Thursday and a tough Everton game on Sunday.

But his "Not sure on that now. That was the initial plan but not sure if AVB wants now as he was Tim's deal?" comment suggests to me the JJ isn't in the loop as much now on transfers, now that his source has been a bit marginalised within the club.

That was referring to Zeki Fryers

Eriksen is a really really talented player, and is probably one of - if not - the best player at Ajax atm. The problem he has when he is playing for the national team, is that people expect him to be the center of everything and he is simply not good enough to do so yet + he has way more technically skilled players around him at Ajax. Keep in mind that he is only 20 years old.

Career wise, Eriksen seems like he is at the same point that Modric was when he joined. Obviously a hugely talented young player, main man at a club in a smaller league, already an International starter but yet to set the world to rights at the highest level. He may not be the finished product, but if he was, we'd have no chance of signing him.

He would take time to settle, just like Modric, so I can't see him as a quick fix Modric replacement that Moutinho would be, but on the long term he could be a world class player, far better than Moutinho, who to be honest has not attracted any interest from any of the real big boys of Europe.

I'd love to sign the guy, but I feel a lot people want a player who will be able to come straight in and fix certain deficiencies in the side, Eriksen would not be that player.

But the inference is that Sherwood isn't as influential on transfers or even being consulted on them any more.

Hi DA,

Tim is actually more involved in transfers now than he was before!He is on the transfer committee! He is Daniels eyes and ears behind the scenes and his voice of reason. Not that he's allowed to go near the first team as he has been banned from attending first team training by AVB.

Me personally i haven't been marginalised just not doing the whole ITK in volume anymore even though i'm still hearing things :)

I watched Eriksen yet again last night and still haven't seen anything outstanding from him. Watching the barca vs benfica game now and even though barca is playing outlying kids I've been well impressed with benficas 19 year old cm Andre Gomes.

Why do we ban members of our staff from first team training?
