http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_3894816,00.html Blackburn have completed the signing of Carlos Villanueva on a season-long loan deal from Audax Italiano. The midfielder, who was recently voted Chile's footballer of the year, could seal a permanent £4million move if he impresses during his time at Ewood Park. The 22-year-old is a favourite among YouTube skills-seekers, and Paul Ince admits that a number of the Rovers squad have already checked out their new team-mate online. "He's a very skilful and exciting player," said Ince. "Hopefully it's a signing that will excite our fans. "Some of the lads have watched him on YouTube and he looks different class. "Getting him here excites me and shows the kind of football I'm looking to play at Blackburn." Wonder if they scouted him via Youtube clips?

What ssn guy? Anyway Roy Keane seems a bit pissed off with Redknapp...... Keane said: "Younes Kaboul has decided not to sign for us and we wish him well. "I think it might have helped if I had taken him to the casino until four in the morning. What do I mean? You're intelligent, work it out. "People have different ways of dealing with different players but it's a long time since I was still up at four in the morning – that's not my style. "Younes made his decision and the important thing for me is that I got the chance to bring him to the club for a look around and to speak to him. "We made a good offer but it's not happened on this occasion and we move on." The full article contains 261 words and appears in Sunderland Echo newspaper. Maybe I'm being thick but what is he on about?

^^^^^^^^ If they're signing his replacement then maybe we're very close to a deal?

Whats the reported/speculated fee?

No.

Time to play hardball and leave the offer on the table and withdraw from further negotiations. Time to start looking at other targets.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Isn't this a comedy/joke football column?

I just wasted 13 minutes of my life for that, refreshing the screen like my life depended on it?

Nooooooo, you lie!

This is going to a bit embarassing if nothing comes of this.

It is and same as well.

I think we brokded their forum.

Hate that work shy Marcelino. Didn't the bastard have an injured finger which stopped him from playing?

Ferdinand rules out Newcastle United switch 19:31 July, 3, 2008 Anton Ferdinand has ruled out a move to Newcastle United Football Club. Mail The FansFC Editor Send This Article To A Friend Post Your View on The Msg Board Kevin Keegan had reportedly made the 23-year-old defender a top target for St James Park, but the younger brother of Manchester United’s Rio has pledged his future to West Ham United. "It's just speculation," Ferdinand told Sky Sports News. "Until I get back to London I don't know what is going on. For me personally, until Alan Curbishley says I am not a West Ham player, then I will be a West Ham player. I love playing for the club." Thanks. Don't think we're missing out on much.

^^^^^^^^^^ Whats the story? Page not loading for me.

Inler looked a very good player at the Euro's and I'd be very happy if we signed him.

Good stuff, heard of the player never seen him play though. Hopefully will turn out to be a good signing and the first of many this transfer window.

Hope this speculation turns into a signing.

If Zhirkov has been really offered to us then I say sign him up and get rid of Duff.

Players that have impressed at the Euro's and who are attainable: 1) Gokhan Inler of Switzerland and Udinese. Comfortable and assured passer of the ball. 2) Eren Derdiyok of Switzerland and Basle. Big striker with a bit of pace. 3) Dario Srna of Croatia and Shaktar Donetsk. Right wing. Good crosser with a powerful shot. Can score as well as proven against the Germans.

^^^^^^^^ He's crap.

Fabregas puts Spain through!

Has corrected himself now and started to call him Ramos and then ruined things by mentioning "Perlo". Anyway back to the game, Spain seeing more of the ball but unable to do anything as Italy have everyone back. Come on Spain!

Why does the idiot Motson insist on calling Ramos, "Raamos"?

Should have got our arses into gear as soon as the season was over and put in bids.
