The Sahin ferry has sailed up the Mersey.....:0( oh well

Yet POTL has stated in today's ITK that Sahin wouldn't come to us as part of Modric deal because he wants CL football.
Can't help but suspect Mourinho has influenced this somewhat!

M'Villa would strengthen the goons as it seems Sahin was a lock in but went to Scousers.

If he goes to the Goons they will have strengthened their squad significantly by the end of this window

We are really gonna need Moutinho or a damn good Modric replacement

Don't forget tax differences, 52k in Italy is not 52K in England (discounting the obvious currency differences)

lol what tax differences? I'd put my house on the average footballer <10% tax via a loophole

Possibly. I hope he enjoys the Bale to Barcelona transfer in a season or 2 otherwise.

As long as we get Moutinho, I can live with Sahin to Pool, even though he will make them a real threat. Still, better that than him at assnal.

Llorente, Damiao, whoever. Forward coming from abroad will take time to get used to PL. Spurs know this. #thfc

 

[Gbspurs]

With Sahin and Allen, Liverpool have identified their problems and fixed them, exactly like we have done with a striker........oh wait.

 

[nedley]

Llorente will want champions league.

Well we can give it to him if he comes.

Just get Vert's to have a chat with him.

Pretty accurate summary of the Sahin situation in the Spanish papers. He strongly favours Arsenal, Real Madrid want him to move to LFC

Greg Stobart‏@gstobart
Hunch now is that Sahin will end up at Liverpool on loan. Mourinho is pushing him towards Anfield and he's open to the move

These posts aren't magically turning blue by the way.

Agree. Lucas, Sahin, Allen, Gerrard is very good. Just need to remove Adams etc.

Andy Carroll it is then haha

 

[Gbspurs]

We should just go spank £20m under newcastles nose for Cisse and they can buy Andy Carroll. Everyone wins!!

I thought seeing as the 'tweeter's' name pasted in blue anyway that would be good enough! How are you changing the colour of my posts anyway? Do you fancy correcting my spelling mistakes and typos for me too?

#thfc Frustration over lack of movement (in and out) is very understandable, but there are two sides to the story... http://bit.ly/MZrZwz

This is a decent read

Didn't realise you were now a Mod, that'll explain why you can change the colour of the text. I will try to remember. I prefer the darker blue though for obvious reasons!

i thought wages were paid post tax. aka 50k wage would be c.70k in reality.

i could be v.wrong though
