Skeletor Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I love it. The press have been so busy trying to invent a crisis at Newcastle, and now seemingly out of nowhere we have trouble at Man City, Pompey and Everton. Love it. Not to mention Blackburn players at war with Ince and West Ham being cash strapped. Us, Villa and Spurs look the only mid table teams on solid ground right now.

Newcastle Fan Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 What's going on at Everton? Slimmest side in the premierleague yet they can't sign anyone, so desprate to get men in it might be possible that they might be our saviours and sign Alan Smith from us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 exactly. For all the press like to rip it out of Ashley, at least we've never looked like being in so much shit as Man City could well be right now. Feel abit sorry for their fans tbh.

I think the Guardian puts it best: In: Pessimism (free) Out: Lee Carsley (Birmingham - free), Darren Dennehy (Cardiff - nominal fee), Aidan Downes (Yeovil - free), Thomas Gravesen (Celtic - loan return), Manuel Fernandes (end of loan), Jamie Jones (Leyton Orient - free) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1878 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Wasn't Moyes odds on to win the sack race before this Hughes stuff happened? No. He was 3rd highest odds after Wenger & Ferguson until some daft internet rumour meant there was a flurry of betting so his odds went down to 16/1. I think Curbishley is still the favourite to go first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1878 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Our mate "nicko" says we're signing Wagner Love. Hopefully before the season starts. Must be a Jo-like deal were you pay 50 pence up front and the rest in instalments. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/sport/article-23530248-details/article.do Ferguson to launch £20m bid to land Henry Last updated at 23:07pm on 09.08.08 Manchester United will launch an astonishing £20million bid to land Thierry Henry before next weekend's Premier League curtain-raiser against Newcastle United. Sir Alex Ferguson, whose team warm up against FA Cup winners Portsmouth in the FA Community Shield today, has made the ex-Arsenal hitman his top priority following the breakdown of United's attempt to sign Dimitar Berbatov from Tottenham. Appropriately, if a deal goes through this week, Henry could make his United debut against Newcastle on his 31st birthday next Sunday. United will move quickly with their approach to Barcelona, the mercurial Frenchman's club, now that any interest they had in Berbatov is almost certainly at an end. The relationship between the domestic and European champions and Spurs has hit rock bottom, with bitterness deteriorating into open warfare. Tottenham are determined to press home with their charge that United made an illegal approach for the Bulgarian, despite strong indications that a Premier League inquiry will rule that the champions have no case to answer. Only a totally unexpected and completely unforeseen climbdown by Spurs could put the Berbatov deal back on, but by then it is likely to be too late - and Henry could be in the bag for the big kick-off. The Frenchman is by no means a consolation prize. He has long been admired by Ferguson, coveted during his eight seasons with Arsenal from 1999-2007 and never off the United manager's radar, even after what many people regarded as, by his own standards, an uneventful season at the Nou Camp. Ferguson has not forgotten that Henry, capped 102 times by France, was top scorer almost every season at Arsenal, achieving the distinction of becoming the club's all-time leading marksman with 226 goals in all competitions. He was Footballer of the Year on three occasions, and the main man in Arsene Wenger's march to two League titles and three FA Cups. It has also not escaped Ferguson's notice that in a season at Barcelona when he was employed mainly on the wing, he still finished top scorer with 19 goals, one more than Samuel Eto'o and three more than Lionel Messi. Ferguson is also reassured that the series of injuries that blighted Henry's final months at the Emirates Stadium are behind him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
