My hometown hero Mario Gomez is linked with Chelsea and Arsenal... won't be cheap, 35 million Euros according to the German press...

Nice topic. Good posting mate. Dont think chelksi have a chance of getting 'El Nino'

Ronaldiniho > Man City

 

Thaksin has made it no secret he is going all out to sign him in thinking he needs a world famous name to market the City brand in Asia.

heurelio gomez (goalkeeper psv eindhoven) goes to Tott.hotspurs.

 

was on rtl sport holland.

 

cheers.

united need a right back brown did good last season but i still think we need a new one because i think neville is finished

Still think Gary Neville will be there next season, the guys been instrumental over the last decade for Man Utd, and I doubt Ferguson will let him go.

 

But your right, they need a new right-back with pace, just like Evra on the left. My money would go on Daniel Alves or Bosingwa of Porto.

This blokes desire has deteriorated big time. Such a shame that players like him and Ronaldo have gone that way. I wonder if Kaka and Ronaldo (Man Utd one) will go that way.

Ronaldo to Real Madrid seems to be the most talked about possible transfer. Ronaldo has said he will reveal his plans within the next few days.

Well bentley going to liverpool and barry should going there too...good buys if they go

Still think Gary Neville will be there next season, the guys been instrumental over the last decade for Man Utd, and I doubt Ferguson will let him go.

 

I hate Manu (well documented) but I hope Neville comes back. I never rated hiom as an England player many years ago but he matured as a footballer and defender fantastically. Whether he can do the biz again remains to be seen though.

 

Transfers in the offing

 

AC Milan have pulled out of the Ronaldinho transfer and I can't see him backtracking with Barco so why not Man City - yeah yeah pull the other one.

 

Dunne will go to Arsenal for a snip - thats just what we need IMO a big numb fu***r at the back.

 

Bentley will move but god knows where (very impressed with him actually in the England games).

 

Aaron Lennon to Liverpool and finally get the England starting place he deserves.

Nicky Shorey

Now that Mourinho has been confirmed as Inter's boss, Lampard and Drogba look like following him there, according to the BBC website.

can see lampard moving because of failed contract talks with chelsea, plus the fact he's only got a year left on his contract.

Brazilian striker Robinho from Real Madrid to Chelsea or ManU.

 

Dani Guiza from Real Mallorca and Ruben de la Red from Getafe CF to Arsenal.

 

Alexander Hleb from Arsenal to Barcelona or Inter.

 

Giovani Dos Santos from Barcelona to the Spurs.

 

These are all rumours and I`ve found them on a Dutch soccer site called http://www.voetbalprimeur.nl

Giovani Dos Santos from Barcelona to the Spurs.

This looks it gonna happen. Have to say, i'm surprised they will let him go considering Barca were developing him as a player last season.

 

Scored a hatrick in the last game of the season.

 

Wonder if they'll let Bojan go to Chelsea

My club (VfB Stuttgart) just signed Jens Lehmann.... not sure what I should think of this

Lehmann was a good player, with his sharp-tongue and being critical of the team management, plus the fact he's always prone to provocation from the opposition, I really can't see why they've bought him.

 

3 years to late imo

according to sky sports news, Man Utd are leading the race to sign him. Never seen the boy play before, but if the likes of Man Utd and Arsenal are interested than he must be good.
