Thats another Mackem muppet that uses Manchester Airport instead of Newcastle airport just because of the name, regardless of the fact that Sunderland city council own a greater percentage of the airport then Newcastle city council. Also he must go by the theory that all people coming into Sunderland from a different country must use a different airport despite Newcastle international being the closest airport. Or he could just be a SMB wind up merchant?

Can we stop talking about Nolan etc in here?, this is Ben Arfa's thread.

Probs just loads of people taking a risk on big odds has made them reduce the odds.

That looks a lot like the FA Cup, maybe, maybe. Eh, does it fuck. It's silverwhere, it's close enough for me.

Yes, but only one will improve them enough to make them trophy candidates. Shay is the better shot stopper, Schwarzer commands his area better. In all reality Arsenal need a Schwarzer type keeper more then they need a Shay type keeper in my opinion. Have to disagree don't rate Schwarzer at all, Given however for me is the best in the league. Given at shot stopping is one if not the best keeper in the world at it. In the Premiership no one at this moment in time comes close to him, Hart being his closest competition. However Schwarzer is better at collecting the ball in the air from set pieces and long balls which is where Arsenal are weak at.

If Given goes to Fulham then it will mean that Schwarzer will go to Arsenal, if he doesn't then Shay will go to Arsenal, either way Arsenal are getting a new keeper.

I'd laugh if he was coming to us.

Yeah, these days we seam to get things done fairly quietly. If it wasn't for the OM president shouting his mouth off, Sol's agent shouting his mouth off, Everton and everyone else shouting their mouths off no one would of known a thing about the transfers we done untill they were done. I would be fairly happy if the squad we have now is the squad we will have at 6pm tomorrow. A striker and maybe a LB would be great additions though. My only real complaints so far in this transfer window is that we didn't get the Tiote and Ben Arfa signings done a month or so ago in time for the new season to kick off. The fact is SSN don't know nothing about whats going on and niether do twitter guys or anyone else. Thats the way I like it, it means the club doesn't have to pay an inflated price and we don't get used as bait for other clubs to get our targets.

Fucking hell, they have a whole SSN studio up here.

No, there was quite a big deal being made last night about Levy was pulling out, wasn't going to pay over the odds, blah blah blah........... The truth is closer to the transfer window strategy falling apart at the seams, Fabiano, Suarez, Huntelaar, Forlan and Rossi have all been put forward as striking options and Parker, Young, Muntari, Lassana Diarra as assorted MF choices. The strain is getting to Redknapp....................... http://www.footballtransfertavern.com/2010/08/premiership/redknapp-tells-sky-presenter-to-f-off-as-pressure-mounts-video? Would love to see him go down for the apparent tax fraud hes facing. It's not going to happen. Have you noticed how long it's been since it was last mentioned?, it's been lost in a pile of paperwork somewhere never to be seen again.

He's just a cunt, and hopefully thats proof of him losing it, like Keegan did with "I'd love it if we beat them, love it."

I can just imagine it now, Wolfswinkle and Keane arrive at the training ground at the same time. Derek: "Ok lads, we can only afford one of you so what I want you to do is go to the gate and when I blow my whistle I want you to run through them cones, skip 77 challenges by Barton, skip through those set of tires, get the ball, run with it and get it into that net that has both Harper and Krul in it. The first one to do that gets to sign for us." Keane: "I only want a few lucky charms." Wolfswinkle: "I only want a few boxes of dog biscuits a week. "

He could be on his way to any club to be honest, or he could be injured. If it's truen then how come we can pay a fee of 6m Euro's for him but we won't pay the same fee to sign Ben Arfa outright this season?

Fishmongers?

I would say Smith is more likely to be dropped, however Tiote could still be the one to replace him.

Jenas is rumoured to be going to Stoke. I guess Inter Milan or Real Madrid wern't really good for him.

bet he deliberatly meant it to do that aswell. Yes.

I've just seen a goal he scored direct from a freekick on youtube. It goes in, hits the back of the net and starts to come back out then hits the inside of the post and goes back in.

Is Ricky van Wolfswinkel any good?

Didn't it get moved forward one more day and not back a few hours?

Same time as the transfer window for Premiership clubs.

I hope Milner takes them apart today and scores a hatrick, Sunderland getting beat and Milner getting points for my fantasy football team.

Not too sure if I should get Ben Arfa 37 or Carrol 9 if/when I get the home shirt. I really don't want to pay for 2 shirts so getting an away one aswell isn't an option, infact I'm going to see if I can add it to my xmas list.
