Another fantastic coup for the premiership (And the scousers), shame we lost Henry but the standard of the league will be imense next year and ever improving imo.

Should be an interesting read.

With Kev, would much prefer baines. Certainly not turning my nose up at bridge though if we can get him, great player. Just rather we bought a Left back whose career was on the up not coming down. would be slightly troubled by his injury history aswell, but im sure whomever we bring in we could nit pick the flaws.

Nugent going to Pompey, bid accepted. Set to talk to them today. Pompey should be a top ten staple for the next couple of years. Wonder if this means they have dropped their interest in Yakubu. Seeing as they are both very different players, maybe not.

Papers seem to reckon he is replacing McCarthy, cant see him leaving though. He would be a good addition to the Arsenal team, but wouldnt come cheap (that said, like bellamy probably has a release clause around 5m), cant see Chelsea going for him now they have Pizarro. Reminds me too much of Saha for Manure to go for him.

Suprised he has requested a move given how much clark and the backroom staff love him. At his age he will want to be getting games though, and there is no chance of that happening here next season. Loan deal would work, selling him would be even better.

Best opening day fixture we have had in years, will be real spice in the game and an electric atmosphere. Gutted im not going to be around for it! As for the staff as much as we would love Speed back at the club, he is an honourable man and wont walk from Bolton unless pushed, if anything he owes the club for the coaching oppurtunity. Can even see him in the running for the managers job after Sammy Lee leaves.

Like the look of Beye, coupled with Geremi, Solano, Milner and Dyer we would have our Right side finally sorted. If we can shape the left side in the same way things will look great.

How can anyone believe an article saying Owen wants to stay, when a few lines later it states Mourihno wants Dyer?

Will be delighted if we can get Geremi and Beye in over the next couple of days. Beye, Geremi, Solano, Milner, Dyer... solid Right side. Just need a couple to add to the Left Side.

Regardless of Owen or Martins leaving im convinced we will bring another player in that can play up front. Carroll is being loaned out, Viduka is likely to miss the start of the season and an injury to martins or Owen would put the pressure on. As Ive mentioned before will either be: -A cheap signing that can play as backup, IE Ritgers -A loan signing - or a player that can slot into the team somewhere else other than upfront, IE Gudjohnsen, Babel, Giuly, Diouf etc..

Wouldnt be a bad signing, similar to distin. Fancied a move here a few seasons ago but Everton put the blockers on it, plus we didnt want to pay alot of money for him. Severely doubt the Toffee's will accept much less than the 7m they quoted us last time if not more. Also doubt we are even interested. Think there are better options out there tbh, but wouldnt be hugely dissapointed if it was true.

not convinced we are even interested in him. Smells more like an Agent wanting his player to go to Celtic and trying to get Celtic to get things moving. We need another player for backup though, especially if carroll goes on loan.

Kuyt and Torres would be quality, provided the former is settled enough to use the chances he gets properly next season. If Kuyt had half of his chances on target he would have won the golden boot this year twice over!

Canadian. Died In A Fight? Daddy is a freak?

Cant really see where dyer fits into the side, especially if Beye and Geremi end up here next week. SA has already praised Milner and doesnt think of him ala Souness as a striker. At the same time he made a point of meeting with him to make sure he was staying. Looked useful the first few months after his return, wont be sad if he leaves though.

IF Owen/Martins or both leave, they will be replaced with similar players. As per the players mentioned, Pace in our team isnt a problem. Brains and commitment can be.

If we could take anyone in a deal for Martins it would be Justin Hoyte for me. Will be nice if Beye and Geremi sign up next week. A LB/LWB is the main cause for concern, we will all breath a little easier after the end of next week IMO.

But bents already gone to spurs.

like touched upon once or twice! This whole thing doesnt make much sense. They dont want to sell Edmilson, he's injured, why the hell would they need to fly over there to do anything other than get him to sign. Would we really need to get in this early to get his signature? Surely just a big smokescreen? Clearly getting Rijkaard to work under Lee Clark as reserve coach.

Its official. They will be no Dabo/Barton repeats here.. Well if there is Davey boy is running: http://home.skysports.com/list.aspx?HLID=474413&CPID=8&title=Rozehnal:+Big+Sam's+the+man&lid=&channel=Football_Home&f=rss&clid=4

Mad price Spuds linked to SWP's and Diarra aswell? Id echo JS's comments really. Alot of money but I think will be worth it. Offers them the pace of defoe but with the power and great aerial prowess. Wouldnt mind Defoe as a replacement for Owen or Martins, but would prefer Anelka classier version of bent, might not score as many goals though.

Dont understand how Hamann could be described as anything other than a good signing. Albeit I guess you could point to his Judas nature. He was a great player who played excellently for us, whilst we would have rather kept him we made a tidy profit on him.. Success if you ask me. Bellamy and Robert have both given us as much back as we have paid for them in Goals, assists and memories.

Our transfer activity has barely started and the summer is already the best I can remember in years. Im also pretty excited and confident some "pleasant" transfer suprises will be thrust upon us before the window closes! Although like O.N. I remember being excited the year Kluivert signed! With all the off field activity this summer has already surpassed that. Going back further reminds me of the year we signed Barton, Hislop and Sir Les. Everything is renewed and I think so much is going on its like a hit to every part of the system, we are in an excitable meltdown! Even the impending departure of Owen and Martins, whilst being hugely dissapointing will be completely different, as I actually have the faith we will replace them. Im sure its much the same if your a Villa, West ham, Man city or even Birmingham/pompey fan this summer the whole league is going through a money boom. Whilst most of the takeovers will cancel each other out Im confident we are one of the only sides doing thing correctly, with Allardyce and Ashley & Co. in charge I feel my trust isnt misplaced this time! Oh but how we have been wrong in the past. But do you refuse to get on the rollercoaster just because the fun ride wont last forever?

Who the f*** voted? Bloody Hell http://www.pubsnewcastle.co.uk/BestBarNone.html Apparently the best three "bars" in Newcastle are Shearer's, the Quilted Camel and Yates's. bluelaugh.gif Not a f****** PATCH on the Union Rooms... Union Rooms is s****. Bouncers and bar staff ID you constantly, place stinks of piss, drinks taste like piss and generally the place reminds me of piss. Go round the corner to O'Neill's. So you don't like it then? No he is just severely Urophobic.
