Fair enough. But Sunderland need a goalscorer as Bendtner with his huge wages isn't going there most likely.

----------

Funny thing. Apparently de Boer is telling Vertonghen to wait for an offer from Barca or Real, but he has his heart set on Spurs.

Do other people just want to butt out and leave Spurs alone haha. What the hell did we do to make everyone fancy some kind of derailing? Is this all some global conspiracy to protect the elite already rich top 4's?

Chelsea have confirmed that drogba is leaving a club..

"I wanted to put an end to all the speculation and confirm that I am leaving Chelsea."
Didier Drogba

 

[BKB1991]

Drogba should have stayed, he still has alot to offer to Chelsea

 

[Sahil 7]

so the hero of chelsea's winning the uefa cl drogba wants to leave chelsea

 

[Bevab]

Its actually the right time for him to leave, and earn some money to do charity work, which is his aim.

Again, he could have stayed, but his departure would atleast see a transition progress. And can't understand why Chelsea need a new striker, they need a new winger, they play a lone striker upfront and there are already 3 strikers to do that role.

 

[sattar]

^^but there is no drogba type striker holdup play and strength wise he is strong whereas other are not in that category.chelsea will miss definetly or otherwise spent maybe cavani the next or lavezzi

What's happening about Yaya Toure? If he leaves City, they'll find it very hard to replace him.

 

[Auwais]

If he does leave, it would probably hasten the acquisition of a proper deep-lying playmaker, which would only make them a better side, particularly in Europe.

owen hargreaves was released by man city. now he is hunting for a new club

Typical Arsenal. After having the M'Vila deal almost confirmed, it appears we've shifted our interest to Capoue from Toulouse. Always the cheaper option...

Hopefully this is just pressure from Arsenal on M'Vila to hurry up and sign the deal.

 

[Bevab]

Sigh. Another old player to join Inter. Its Rodrigo Palacio of Genoa. Atleast get a good goal scorer.

And finally, City threatening Hazard. He needs a reality check badly.

Capoue would not be a bad signing for Arsenal. Although M'Vila is always the better option.

Dembele being chased by everyone... Seriously he dribbles really nicely and all, and is a treat to watch, but really, his lack of a final ball is huge. Though I see him as a nice deep lying midfielder who can make decent short passes and dribble the ball about.

Potential Modric replacement maybe? Or someone to shore up the Liverpool midfield?

He wants CL football though. Man Utd are interested, he'd be a nice back-up for Kagawa or Modric. Arsenal also interested, tbh we don't need another Nasri who wants to dribble it into the net, but he could be a decent choice as a deep-lying CM, an alternative to Arteta who has more attacking instincts. Would make sense as we don't really need Arteta to sit so deep with a disciplined DM like M'Vila. I see him as a decent choice if we miss Kagawa and Belhanda.

 

[Bevab]

Belhanda most likely won't be leaving.

Amalfitano is joining Newcastle. Another Frenchman at Tyneside.

Michu's being linked with United. Anybody know him?

 

[puddleduck]

I think Newcastle have stolen Arsenal's original Wenger plan #1 from when he arrived.
