Higuain? I'd go straight in with £20m if he's being pimped out for 15. But, as has been said, that price would just be said to start a bidding war and I can't see him coming to us! (Unless he loves VDV that much :grin: )

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.

R.

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.

:grin:

Lloris, Llorente, Lukaku, Leandro, FriedeL

FLLLLLipin 'eck!

And I thought Bluddy Ell :grin:

A proper link is Harry saying "I've been looking at the boy Lloris"

Anything on a website or in the papers is no different to ITK as far as I'm concerned.

Obscene Whinger issued a virtually similar press release - I think they have been using the same copy. His said: "I've been looking at the boys":eek:mg:

I've got a mate that works on the coaching staff at Aston Villa and he told me that Friedel has to get up three times in the night just to take a piss.

It's referred to as OAB and is frequent with OAP. If Levy doesn't temper Harry, it will be a chronic condition at our club

:lol: DL will veto the buys on the grounds he doesn't want such high water bills after all that flushing

Higuain?! I though Lloris and Llorente was crazy talk. What's next Messi and Pele?

I can think of several reasons to buy Parker

1) Added steel in midfield
2) CL experience
3) Vocal
4) A leader
5) Less chance of us being muscled out by Blackburn/Wolves/Bolton/Stoke in midfield
6) Better than Palacios, Hudd, Jenas, O Hara

Does 9 games for Chelsea count as CL experience? I don't think so. He didn't even win anything with Chelsea. :shrug:

Can't they pay significantly better wages though?

I'd imagine so but we can't let that put us off all the time, we should try at the very least. Get VDV to whisper in his ear, let him know what its like to loved again. :)

He isn't the type to hold up the play and he's a much better finisher when he doesn't have time to think but he has pace and his movement is very good.

I thought about that but like Liverpool they have the club history in the favour.

Oh I'm not saying we shouldn't explore it, but I think there will be significant obstacles.

It's interesting but probably unrealistic. VDV may help. Our relationship with RM will probably help. But who knows what the player thinks.

yes but by the same token the detractors can hardly use that as conclusive evidence to slag him for looking out of place at a top side or whatever it is they're saying.

Higuain would be a fantastic signing but this is just speculation as there has been no link, tenuous or otherwise from us.
