SUPERTOON

Zenit to win it this year really impressive

you wont be mssing much if you dont turn it on

We will probably find out tomorrow from KK would expect him to be asked at his press conference dont be suprised if he says it is all rumours

Aye i know like i said thats what i think it is from what i can understand

They want 25 million euros we have offered 5 less i think?

The croatian media are reporting what some english sites are saying basically as move is close apart from a small difference in price hopefully we can sort it

The hitch was the highness of the price

Thinks it just reporting him to be at our training ground can make that out from first para

Bayern 1-0 up Ribery

Source? and its Rumours

So deal of then? Coz we are signing Diego instead

Now on teamtalk

From SkySports.com Meanwhile, Newcastle are being strongly linked with a move for Croatia star Luka Modric. Modric is one of the most sought-after players in Europe with the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham and Barcelona all credited with an interest in the Dinamo Zagreb schemer. However, reports suggest Newcastle have stolen a march on their rivals by inviting Modric to Tyneside for talks and a visit to the club's training ground. Modric is believed to have met with football executive director Dennis Wise and head of player recruitment Tony Jimenez with Newcastle thought to be ready to pay £20million. nothng new but people have been waiting for it to get there

L'Equipe

France football? L'Equipe

Aye RIP shame to hear

We should find out more tomorrow during KK pre match press conference

That's where I think he'll play, I can't see him moving Owen unless he goes to him and says he doesn't want to play there but judging from comments from him he seems happy with his new role in the team. One thing Modric will give our midfield is better ball retention compared to the other lot, when Keegan spoke about Owen playing deeper he mentioned how he hardly gave the ball away so I think it's something he's looking for in his midfield, I can see Keegan going for another midfielder even if he does get Modric to play on the other side and if it's a player of similar quality then the quality of our football can only improve. Fair play to the club if they pull it off. Aye would be very interesting to see how much more KK wants to improve the midfield. I'd be tempted to look for a DM to replace Butt, however there's a big chance he will revert Barton to DM (after his comment) and sign another AM. I get the feeling he would rather sign more attacking players than defensive ones............ which won't upset me. KK already said he is looking for a new DM

If he has already agreed to sign you would hope that he sticks to his word and doesnt pull out if he hasnt officially signed before Euro 2008 and a bigger club come in

Chelsea fans opinion To be honest I'm not sure who actually signs the players at Chelsea. Is it Avram, Roman, Arnesen, Kenyon... who really knows? Whoever it is, they need to get their rump in gear, because it looks like Newcastle are very close to signing long time Chelsea target wee Luka Modric. Many see Modric as the only possible replacement for Lampard, who with every passing day, looks more and more likely to leave The Bridge in the summer. If Lampard does go and Modric doesn't come in, you'd have to worry about the creativity of the 2008/2009 Chelsea midfield. There's already about 1058 defensive midfielders on the Blues books, and if the rumours are to be believed Gareth Barry is set to become the 1059th. Modric would surely be a better option. However it's all looking too late. Dinamo Zagreb vice-chairman Zdravko Mamic jetted into Tyneside's Jimmy Nail International on Tuesday and met Toon officials in a hotel (I'm guessing a Travelodge) to discuss a £12million move. And who's been key to securing this deal? A certain Chelsea legend named Dennis Wise. Reports in the papers this morning are suggest Modric has even hosted a farewell dinner party with Dinamo pals to toast the transfer. Disaster...

Modric Diego Deco would be suprised if any signed

Vukojevic very good defensive midfielder

Would love it if we some how pull ths off however expect this deal to be reported as off within 48 hours

Didn't the Enrique deal stall for ages as well with no confirmation on our side for weeks? No was in the media on friday confirmed by Sam on Sunday
