Thought we should start this with one massive move confirmed and one all but in the space of 24 hours.
Major Transfers:
Mario Gotze: Dortmund ---> Bayern for £31m (release clause)
Fernando Llorente: Athletico Bilbao ---> Juventus for free (end of contract)
Andy Carroll: Liverpool ---> West Ham for £15m lmfao scouse twats £20m loss
Joao Moutinho: Porto ---> Monaco for €25m
James Rodriguez: Porto ---> Monaco for €45m
Rumours: is a class album that everyone should listen to at some point in their life
Edison Cavani: Napoli ---> PSG/Chelsea/City for £56m (release clause)
Falcao: Atletico Madrid ---> Chelsea/Man U/Monaco/Real Madrid
Gareth Bale: Spurs ---> Real Madrid/Man U/Barcelona
Cristiano Ronaldo: Real Madrid ---> Man U/PSG
Xabi Alonso: Real Madrid ---> Liverpool
Cesc Fabregas: Barcelona ---> Arsenal/Man U
Robert Lewandowski: Dortmund ---> Bayern/Man U
Leandro Damiao: Internacional ---> Spurs I swear this is like the 4th summer in a row this deal has been talked about
Bastian Schweinsteiger: Bayern ---> Man U Ok I made this one up but I really want it to happen so shush -_-

Cavani the 3rd biggest deal of all time (if you rate Eto'o in 2009 as £15m+, which I do) if it goes through, so it looks like the summer's biggest transfer has likely already happened.
Gotze is massive too - £31m is still cheaper than Carroll yet he's the most expensive German ever. Bayern strengthening and simultaneously weakening their rivals is massive. Chose a strange time to announce it with the CL coming up and everything. Will be a top class player, no doubt.

You forgot Llorente to Juventus. Talk of Ibrahimovic going back too if Cavani does go to PSG.

Not sure on the Cavani one. Only seen a few unreliable sources report it. Nothing from BBC or Sky Sports yet.
If he goes to PSG I'm gunna be fuming. Rather he went to Real Madrid, or somewhere.

There'll be some big deals this summer. I'm hoping we spend quite a bit, providing we get in the Top 4 of course. Need to show Bale that we're trying to match his ambitions.

It'll be a massive blow to Dortmund losing Goetze and probably Lewandowski to your main title challengers. However i'd trust Klopp and his scouts to find and unearth another gem or two.

Patrick Agyemang has left Stevenage to join Portsmouth.
Just saying.

Higuain seems a bit overrated. Scores goals every now and again, but doesn't seem to contribute much else.

Injuries have ruined him. A few years ago you'd of struggled to find a more complete finisher imo, just seems a bit of a liability now especially in big games.

Carles Puyol heavily linked with a move to Milan. Christ, they do love an ancient defender.

What is it with Milan and Inter always signing ridiculously old players?

Patrick Agyemang has left Stevenage to join Portsmouth. Just saying. Thank God for that... Leandro Damiao has also been linked with Napoli and Ezequiel Lavezzi has been linked with both the Inter and AC Millan (Doubt they can afford him though).

Think Spurs will end up with Damiao, after playing FM don't Spurs have a link with his club Internacional?

Apparently Fulham have signed Fernando Amorebieta and Maarten Stekelenburg. Both would be brilliant signings. Always thought Stekelenburg would end up at one of the biggest clubs in the world.

Amorebieta's move was sealed like a month ago, what's up with these Bilbao's players moving under the radar though? I only found out recently Llorente to Juve was confirmed my interest in Spanish football must be waning, I blame Scott Minto.

What's up with Bilbao's players moving, full stop That team that absolutely tore United a new one, being ripped apart. With their Basque players only rule, gonna be hard to replace them all.

Down to Bielsa more than likely, he's been on a mission to ruin that team since they lost the Europa League final last year. Llorente has only been a bit part player this term ffs, like you say though with the Basque players only rule it'll be a tough task to rebuild the team.
