Martin Lol Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I haven't seen much of Croatia in this tournament because of work. How has Rakitic been doing? (sp?) Been impressed when i've seen him before, not much though tbh.. Has looked good, like most of the Croatia squad tbh. Another in a fine bunch of players at Schalke, can't see him going anywhere soon. Shame. Maybe "realistic summer targets" isn't the best place to put this but from Football Transfer Rumours has this contribution: I know for a fact as I am related to one of the couts at Newcastle United that the geordies ar egonna get Arshavin £18 million David Villa £20 million Arda turan £8 million Orlando Elengaar £2 million Richard Dunne £5 million Total Out £53 million and theyll sell Milner (Liverpool) £10 million N'Zogbia (Tottenham) £14 million Enrique (Valencia) £8 million Alan Smith (Rangers £5 million Viduka (LA galaxy) £8 mill Total In 45 mill http://www.football-rumours.co.uk/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been impressed when i've seen him before, not much though tbh.. He didn't start the first game but he started the others. Looked confident on the ball and linked well with Pranjic, passing was decent and he had a reasonable amount of pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Can't see why Crouch won't end up at Pompey now like. Probably about £10.5m, and he'll fancy linking up with Defoe I'd imagine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robm Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 http://www.thespoiler.co.uk/index.php/2008/06/25/ten-players-you-dont-want-linked-to-your-club Underwhelming transfers Ten players you don’t want linked to your club June 25th, 2008 · 17 Comments The Spoiler considers the footballing talent you rather see warm someone else’s bench next season Much like when a hot girl comes for an interview at your place of work, the feeling of knowing a quality player could be joining your club is pretty uplifting. However, unless you support Manchester Utd, Chelsea or Arsenal, occasionally a player who provokes a combined feeling of fear, disappointment and mild anger will crop up on the rumour radar. Even Liverpool suffer a little from ropeytransferitis, with names like Stewart Downing and James Milner not exactly living up to last summer’s star signing Fernando Torres. With this in mind, we decided to compile a list of the ten names most likely to make you choke on your Corn Flakes when the back pages associate them with your side. Let’s get things started with a couple of Frenchmen… Djibril Cisse The French striker flopped during his spell at Liverpool but that doesn’t stop him believing that we all love him, judging by his determination to return to the Premier League. We don’t Djibril, we don’t. Lillian Thuram Even Lil realises that he’s not that popular after being dumped by Barcelona and failing with France. “I would like to continue to play but I don’t know if a club wants me,” he said last week. Celtic and Rangers have been linked but Scots can rest easy as he now appears to be PSG-bound. Justin Hoyte Perfect proof that playing with some really good players once or twice a season doesn’t make you a really good player. Maybe Martin O’Neill thinks he could do a Bentley and flourish away from the Emirates, but his loan spell at Sunderland suggested that simply won’t happen. Harry Kewell The Socceroo was one of the most exciting players in the Premier League…five years ago. After a few years rotting in hospital beds and in Liverpool’s reserve team he is damaged goods. Thankfully it’s looking like he will take WAG Sheree Murphy off to Italy. Stephen Carr Kevin Keegan is happy playing any old rubbish in defence, believing the strikers will score enough goals to negate the errors. If KK deems the Irishman unworthy, that ain’t a good sign. West Ham and Aston Villa fans have been among those squirming at the thought of him pulling on claret and blue. James Beattie He had one great season in 2003 that saw him score 23 goals, win some England caps and join Everton for £6 million. It was on Merseyside that it all fell apart, but now he has scored goals in the Championship, where anyone can beat anyone else, he’s worth £5 million all over again. Roy Keane is said to be tempted, and has already paid £4 million plus on three Championship players. Don’t do it, Roy! Nicky Shorey After looking incredibly ordinary as Reading sunk without a trace, Shorey has inherited the one-season wonder mantle previously held by players like Marlon Harewood and Darren Bent. So why is there always someone waiting to pay big money to give them another chance? Johan Elmander Recognise the name? Elmander was the guy who did a remarkable job of featuring in all three of Sweden’s Euro 2008 games while managing to do a grand total of nothing. We’re not even sure he touched the ball. So feel some sympathy for Fulham and Bolton fans, whose clubs may be willing to pay eight figures for him. Scott Carson He’s nowhere near as bad a goalkeeper as that mistake suggests, but he’s damaged goods and his confidence is shaken. Plus Rafa Benitez is sure to demand big money if the Peter Crouch saga is anything to go by. Aston Villa got to witness him first hand for 12 months before deciding he wasn’t worth buying, so why are there so many others in the queue? If Tottenham ever sign a new keeper, expect Paul Robinson to displace Carson in this list. Milan Baros The striker who flopped at Liverpool and Aston Villa has managed to make an entire career trading off his Euro 2004 topscorer success. He went to Portsmouth in January but scored a grand total of zero then went to the Euros with Czech Republic and failed to score. He’s now supposed to be the goal hero who keeps West Brom in the Premier League; Tony Mowbray would be wiser to stick with Kevin Phillips. For realistic summer targets we are shit scared of I would add Dawson to the list. Surprised theres not more Newcastle players / ex players in their top ten.

stozo Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 So, we are obviously in dire need of a creative midfielder. Who does everyone think we could get in and who'd improve us? I still think Palacios would be a good option personally. I'd be tempted to say Veloso but even though he hardly played at Euro 2008 I think he might be a bit out of our reach.
