Hmmmm where have we been here before, great targets approached and time ticking away, with excuses why nothing has been confirmed getting thinner by the moment.

IF Moutinho flew with the rest of the Porto squad there is no way that the bid was even accepted in the first place. Just wouldn't have happened.

It's all a load of crap that has either been created by SSN to get people interested or by the club to cover for the fact that they have blatantly just sold off the most valuable player resources except Bale and have no intention of re-investing it to match the value they have recouped.


All the hype and noise is one thing but when you really look at the clubs actions this window and the last few windows, it's clear that money is more important that footballing success. I'm not even saying that's wrong but I doubt they would be able to justify some of the most expensive ticket prices in Europe if they were up front about it.

I hate to say this, but i think we have fucked this up.
If so i really hope DL comes out and takes the abuse rather then give some lame excuse of how we have worked hard but it didn't come off.
I know we all love the thrill of the last few hours of a transfer window - but to let Modric and VDV go and no top class replacement already sorted... :(

i really hope i eat my words but we are short of at least 3/4 players to seriously challenge for 4th.

COYS pull this out the bag!

No chance of Moutinho happening I dont think. Im expecting unbelievable anger on here later.

this is a double negative, perhaps you'd explain again. You think it will? Me too! (y)

(edit: hey BK007, I can tell you're going to fit in here nicely: hounding with neg reps and being a bit of a tosser - on your first day. nice one (y) ).

If any one needs any light relief from the transfer tension the blue scum are getting done 2-0 on itv at the moment.

Ha ha should have been 3!

its getting to close to that time that I either:

A) down a bottle of vodka and start phoning babe station or;
B) resort to praying on the hour in the hope that we pull these deals off whilst changing my boxers repeatedly

I'm going A.

I don't get why Llorente would say no when he's desperate to move clubs. He's even getting abuse from fans in training. Seems strange.

Because in January with only 6 months left on his contract, Barca and Madrid will come in for him as he will be a bargain.

If he waits until January he can talk to Real or Barcelona. He has the choice of move now or wait six months and get a bigger move sorted then either instantly or for next summer.

Sell bale, VDV and modric in the same window!!?! Fuck me I'd start supporting Swansea!!

Hey, we're about to be stuck with our only two strikers as Defoe and Ade and having sold van der vaart. Unless we sort something pretty extraordinary very soon it won't matter who else we decide to get shot of...

Why would Moutinho have to come to the lodge? Surely someone from here is over there negotiating?
