jdckelly Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 odd, been a fair few chunks of cash thrown at clubs but not really spent it, Villa have quite a bit of the Young and Downing cash left Blackburn have barely spent despite that Jones cash going in pretty early, and of coarse us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elbee909 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 "His name was chosen by his father, as a tribute to rock musician Jim Morrison from The Doors and Keith Richards from Rolling Stones" Heroic parenting.

taxfree Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Douglas - Striker chase seems a bit confused - early targets have gone so new name in Sunday Sun today has been talked about #NUFC Nothing imminent on that front, but as Obertan & Barnetta moves prove: things can change quickly. Links later On Kerrison, by the way, it was being played down when I asked about him. Internet rumour? Will be someone more substantial IMO #NUFC Not Bendtner, Huntelaar. Sturridge possible. Was always told it was Continental targets but now Brits on radar too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonTastic Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I know we'd all prefer to have players in as soon as possible but there is still a lot of business yet to happen in this transfer window for all clubs. Scanning through the article below it seems a large number of the Premiership Clubs transfers so far have been free transfers. Most clubs 'Out' lists are bigger than their 'In' lists too. Club-by-club guide to Premier League summer transfers 2011 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/article-1390662/Premier-League-transfers--2011-summer.html Aye, interesting read really, aren't many clubs spending big at all so far. People should probably remember this. Not many clubs have sold a player worth £35m to have funds available to buy experienced players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 They've spent the Henderson money, what about the Bent money, Villa have spent a percentage of the Young and Downing cash which people also say they spent on Bent, where did their Milner money go?

The Sunday Sun understands that the club have changed tack in the market from the start of the summer after many of their targets moved elsewhere – with British-based alternatives now coming into play. The blow of missing out on Mevlut Erdinc has influenced that re-think, and while moves for Peter Crouch and Jermain Defoe look unlikely, it is understood they ARE still being discussed."

Coloccini was given the armband after previous captain Kevin Nolan moved to West Ham, but his agent has claimed he is keen to play Champions League football for the Spanish team. 'Valencia are insisting on signing Coloccini, but Newcastle have just named him captain, which is something that hasn't happened before,' said Fernando Lombilla. 'So it's very complicated. They love him in England and he even has a song they sing about him, which lasts a few minutes. 'But in a sporting sense, Valencia is a bigger opportunity - and they're in the Champions League. 'Therefore, there will be a conflict between the emotional and the professional.' Boss Alan Pardew has a lack of cover at centre-back, with only Steven Taylor and Mike Williamson competing to play alongside Coloccini. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 The tabloids are just making up stories to fill the space atm. I'm sure the Valencia interest in Colo story is just a rehash as well. I read those quotes a few days ago. I have tracked the source, and it's a new link originated in Spain. A Spanish radio pundit claimed that Colo's agent will travel tomorrow to Valencia to negotiate a deal. I have been reading the Valencia forums and people there claim he's already there (the agent). "El Mundo Deportivo" claim that your asking price is €4,5m which I doubt. The Valencia fans from the forum I read seem to be checking this place, by the way.

Dokko Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 It would have to be a big offer for us to sell our newly appointed captain. £8m+ and this may happen, till that kind of figure comes in I can't see him going. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was 1 or 2 as well as Obertan, as he said it after speaking about egghead, mind you haven't we heard 1 or 2 all the last month and nothing has happened.
