The January transfer window

[the count]

You should know better.

Although to be fair we had agreed personal terms and a fee last month with the club according to various 'reliable' twitter users, so only the medical was remaining.

I can't wait until someone else on twitter tells us how great he played against Oldham on Saturday.

And how he linked well with Alonso

I do know better mate.
That is why I posted it

 

[hmmmmm1]

Today's links:

Badu
Diame
Bertrand
Salah (lesser so)

Baduizm was good album...

 

[ILD]

Is Diame a decent option if that clause does exist in his contract? He a bit of a monster. I haven't seen that much of him but he impressed me with his power.

They can have Smith

Is the Smith hatred thing, just because he's made the first team before McLaughlin?

Actually, that was just a joke.

3.5m is a steal as a very decent squad option.

 

[Hansern]

Diego Costa wont be moving in the January window according to Atletico.

Diego Costa wont be moving in the January window according to Atletico.

And definitely not for 32M.

 

[KingDing]

And definitely not for 32M.

32M and 1 pound.

 

[doctor_mac]

32M and 1 pound.

Hahaha

John W. Henry ‏@John_W_Henry4h
So what are the real odds of making top four at this point? City 99%, Chelsea 91%, Arsenal 87%, LFC 61%, United 30%, Everton 20%, Spurs 12%

Could that prompt him to splash the cash? 😛

Why did he do that?

To say he doesn't have to spend the cash since, according to the odds, 4th is in the bag.

Assuming current form, player availability and fixtures.

Ranieri has confirmed that Monaco are in talks with Anzhi to sign Lacina Traore. Meanwhile, English press claim he will be loaned to West Ham till end of current season while French media claim he's signed as Falcao's replacement.

Has anyone heard the rumour about Mata coming here for £13m plus Agger?

Is it from @the_tongue?

If not it's not reputable

 

[Skullflower]

No. I just made it up.
I was wondering if it was possible to make up a new rumour that nobody had actually heard before at some point.

Yours can't be any worse than what is out there.

Wouldn't catch @the_tongue tweeting that bullshit

Linked with Emmanuel Aguyemang Badu again. Dont think he's good enough tbh.

Won't he cost a fortune?

 

[#roadred]

Benteke had a great arrival in the PL last year but at 1.9meters and over 80 kilos he has already had there spell the sidelines this year with two separate knee injuries and a hip injury(hasn't scored sinne his October return). A man of his size who has been pounding around football fields for 15 or 20 years and who is now being frequently injured may be showing signs structure fatigue and might not be regular first teamer in 3 or 4 years, keep the 20 mil in the bank I reckon.

Quoted at 20m this morning

And he's not very good, anyway.

 

[hmmmmm1]

How does Monreno compare to Luke shaw....

 

[Rosco]

He's 23 and has scored 1 in 2 in the league since joining Villa. 23 goals in 48 games, in a below average side.

That's good in anyone's book, even before you consider his hip problem this season.

 

[Buddha]

How does Monreno compare to Luke shaw....

They're both excellent young prospects already established in top leagues.

if only this wasn't speculative bollocks....
