Steve Harwood ‏@leedsyid
Van Persie claims the boy inside him was yelling at him to join Utd. Makes a change from the girl underneath him yelling at him to get off.

Sorry Mods bit off topic but couldn't resist.

Google translate says:
According to latest information from Madrid, was abruptly canceled soap opera about Luka Modric moving to Real Madrid, and with a completely unexpected outcome: the transfer (for now) will not be anything!
Specifically, the source is near to our team, the transfer is stopped Jose Mourinho after Daniel Levy once again started to raise prices, even though the clubs are reportedly already agreed on the sum of 35 million.
When he heard that Jose Levy has new desires, banged his fist on the table and say - enough!
Translation
As much as he cared to come to Port Real, Jose does not allow itself to be insatiable Tottenham chairman pulls the nose.
He pulled a drastic move and probably very disappointed that the Port of London awaits cue to fly to Madrid to sign the contract.
True, a transitional period lasting until 31 August and when these great deals wiser, reversals are always possible. But the mood of people in Madrid, things are not developing in Modric favor - his dream at the moment "frozen at -35" with little chances for something to change ...
For more information read the printed edition of Vecernji list from Saturday.

Can't tell if the article is a pisstake or that is the Google translation. Sounds like the full story is being trailed for tomorrow.

This isn't twitter. I'll post a translation in the Modders thread.

I don't know, one would think that if something like that happened it would be instantly all over the internet, not just one article on croatian website

Pull his nose right off, Daniel!

The man is his own worst enemy. Totally can't believe this shit if true. Can't really blame players for not wanting to come if the agents have to deal with him.

Tom Huddlestone ‏@TomHuddlestone6
"@J4MIEPREECE_: @TomHuddlestone6 are you back 100% fitness yet?" Yeah trained all pre season so yep

From this I get, I'm fit and should be in the squad.

It's all very well for a player to say yes I'm fit etc. but it is the responsibility of the manager to decide. We have all seen those occasions where players have returned too early from serious injuries only to aggravate it again. It's the managers job to make the decision, not the players irrespective of whether they get the hump or not.

I'm sorry but you're blaming Levy? Luka and Madrid tried to fuck us over by having Luka strike. They thought they could stitch us up good and proper and now Levy is giving it back to them.

So Levy agrees a fee with RM, and then later decides its not enough and wants more. How is Levy not in the wrong here? If he didn't think it was enough why agree in the first place? Levy's persistant haggling for every last penny will cost us as the window draws to a close. This is all according to the article which could all be bollacks.

Levy likely hit a ballpark figure with them. Then the moment that is done the Sahin to Liverpool deal dies, then they leak their original derisory offer being accepted and the Sahin to scum deal is suddenly almost completed. Real have not been negotiating in good faith this summer and you expect our chairman to let that slide?
