Will be annoyed if we sell to Chelsea for less than silly money (£40m upwards) unless we get a better replacement (linked to Bale again today). Hate that club so much. If Jose's not lying when he says its their last bid then I think he'll stay.

Man City have agreed deals for Alvaro Negredo and Stevan Jovetic. A strike force of Negredo, Aguero, Jovetic and Dzeko is deadly. Just reaffirms my opinion they will regain the title this season.

Bet Juventus are gutted. One of the reasons selling Giaccherini was to fund a move for Jovetic.

I really think Jovetic is overrated.

Jovetic is quality, but don't think he'll tear up the Premier League like everyone (most of which have not seen him play regularly) else seems to think he will.

Rumour has it that Reina is off to Napoli. Can see that happening with them looking for a goalkeeper and Rafa as their manager. Makes sense can't have a 110K a week keeper as back up and if he was first choice why pay 9M for a second choice keeper. We really need a couple of marquee signings to improve the starting XI. Players such as Alberto and Aspas will improve the squad and players such as Downing, Allen, Sterling, Borini are squad players (some have potential). Think we need another attacking player, a centre back and a defensive midfielder. Would like to see Eriksen but that seems to be just talk without anything happening. Papadopolous rumours started up again last night, wouldn't mind seeing him at LFC. Would like to see us line up something like this next season Mignolet Johnson Papadopolous Agger Enrique Gerrard Lucas Eriksen Coutinho Henderson Sturridge
Subs- Jones, Toure, Kelly, Allen, Downing, Borini, Aspas

Why are Napoli being constantly linked with loads of goalkeepers? They just signed Rafael from Santos (who is absolutely awful, from what I've seen of him).

Benteke has withdrawn his transfer request and signed a new contract with Aston Villa. Good on him.

Rumours of Mata & £10m bid for Rooney. If they up that to £15m with Mata I'll bite their hand off. Wayne is better than people say but I rate Mata so much; only person affiliated with Chelsea I don't hate. Spend the £15m on Baines, and then spend our original £30m budget on Fabregas or someone similarly good, and it could be a cracking summer of transfer business. De Gea Baines --- Vidic --- Ferdinand --- Rafael Carrick --- Fabregas Kagawa --------------------- Mata RVP --- Hernandez That would be fantastic imo. Utter relegation fodder imo.

Hope the Bale to Utd rumours are true, just so T stops talking about him

We've announced the signing of Nacer Chadli today from FC Twente. He's a versatile midfielder who's best suited to LW, but plays as more of an AM for Belgium. Seems like a steal at 7m Euros, but he only had one year left on his contact. Spurs fans should already be familiar with him, as he played and scored in both games against us in the Champions League a few years ago.
I think we literally just need a CF, and everything in the world will be good again; Lloris Walker - Kaboul - Vertonghen - Benny Dembele - Sandro - Paulinho Bale --------------- Chadli CF When you consider that this is our second string XI: Friedel Naughton - Dawson - Caulker - Rose Parker Holtby - Sigurdsson Lennon ---------------- Townsend Adebayor And we still have Defoe, Dempsey, Carroll, Livermore and Smith in reserve I think we have a lot greater strength in depth than people give us credit for. With that said, I expect 4 or 5 squad players to leave, and possibly a new left-back to come in. In reality, we might actually have all our incomings done before the first game of the season for once.

Think Lennon's the RW in your first team, Bale'll be wearing red next season

I'd say Real's away kit was more orange tbh I actually think he'll stay.

Looks like Zoumane Bakayodo is about to join us on a free transfer. Don't know much about him, but at least we won't be the only club in the Championship yet to make a signing.

All these big transfer saga's going on but I can't see any of them moving:
Suarez to Arsenal, Bale to Madrid, Fab to Man U, Rooney to Chelsea.

This has been a horrendous transfer window for the Premier League. All the top players available have gone to Monaco, PSG or Napoli, and it seems like it's going to continue that way.

Another day, another significant lack of transfer activity at NUFC.

I don't think so. That's the way it's always been. Prem thrives on bringing in players like Jovetic, Negredo, Soldado. Players in their prime and usually for a good deal instead of extortionate fees.

We've signed Steven Caulker from Spurs. Absolutely delighted.
