"The likes of Tottenham, Everton and Newcastle"

 

So what? Not actually Tottenham, Everton and Newcastle? :lol:

 

Aye - not actually us you and Spurs, but in fact, err, Premier League equivalents of these teams?

Most generic statement ever. Tottenham, Everton and Newcastle must be the 3 most used clubs when it comes to a "these clubs are thought to be interested" line.

 

I'm sick of that shit to be honest... the idea that people can make a living writing this bollocks is insane.

We want another CB, would love Samba he is wasted at Blackburn.

 

Samba is an absolute monster like, if we could sign him it would be incredible. Saying that, I've got a feeling Wenger or Ferguson will be on the phone.

The press is all the same imo. They've got quotas to fill so they need to churn out shit if they can't actually go out and find something interesting. That's just the nature of the occupation.

 

The temptation to just make shit up is greater in sports journalism obviously, since football clubs won't beat the shit out of you like the government or major corporations will.

Should be at the top of Arsenal's list of potential signings tbh.

 

Yeh, apparently they are after Huth. It wouldn't surprise me if Huth to Arsenal , Samba to Stoke happened, with once again Arsene getting the raw end of the deal.

True but realistically we're not going to be threatening the top 4 for a while like those 6 clubs. Wouldn't be much of a step up coming here unless we offer crazy wages which we won't.

If Samba or Hangeland leave their clubs it'll only be for a top 6 club imo. 

 

Wonder if we could convince them we're trying to be one.

 

Would be kind of useless to not try at least, but hay, why try when you can just give up and not risk looking like a loser club?

 

everyone (i've seen) is putting "football reasons" at the top of the list as why we might not tempt them, when in reality we wouldn't likely be willing to pay them a significant enough upgrade on their $'s to make such a risky move at this point in both their careers

STEPHEN WARNOCK is understood to be interesting Newcastle United.

 

The Magpies are also continuing to monitor the situation of Malaga’s La Liga hotshot Jose Salomon Rondon, with the Venezuela international looking odds on to quit the Spanish outfit this summer after a superb campaign.

Warnock is exactly the sort of calibre of players that I expect us to be looking at, ie highly mediocre-yet-cheap.

 

Rondon, know nowt about him but signing a young spanish striker? Hmmm, we've been there before.

Should stay well clear of Warnock, villa fans tend to think he's shite.

 

Rondon isn't spanish. havent seen him play much, what do the forum la liga nerds think about him?
