KANU“S GOAL FROM YEASTERDAY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Io1XZ...h=arsenal-ajax
Liverpool and Spurs lost Duff. He has passed his medical at Newcastle and has signed a 5 year contract. He's just what's needed at the Toon.
LET THE HAMMER FALL
Arsenal raised Cole's price to 25 million. :laugh: This maker me laugh, and it was an excellent move.

Yep, everyone is talking about all those transfers...specially the Kenny Cunningham one
Isn't Julio Arca going to boro? I wanna know if the deal's been finalized yet or if it's still a rumour. Neil Quinn is a dumbass, Peter Reid was the guy who got sunderland in the financial state they're in now, it's been years since he was sacked and they're still not much better, and he wants him back, that's like letting Sven Goran Erikson stay at England with as much money to spend as he pleases, pointless, lame, suicidal and funny to anyone who isn't affected. Duff for 5m is a bargain, I'm surprised Chelsea didn't squeeze anything else out of fat freddy's wallet.

Well Duff has hardly played at all for chelsea, but yes 5 mil is still quite cheap i would thought thye would get about 10 mil for him.
West Ham are closing in on this really good Colchester youngster(sorry cant remember his name) and are intrested in Portugal stopper Ricardo but he is happy at Sporting Lisbon
I don't think Chelsea are particularly bothered about getting huge sums of money for their outgoing players. It's not as if they need the cash, after all. It's a good move for Duff, since he's not exactly the first name down on the team sheet over at Stamford Bridge, and he's guarenteed regular football at Newcastle. It's not a bad signing for the club either, since Duff is a tricky winger who can really worry defenders, and can pop up as an occasional goalscorer to supplement Newcastle's somewhat limited strikeforce. At £5m, he's a good buy.
Jermaine Pennant's gone to Liverpool for £6.7m. He's not worth that sort of money, but he could be a nice addition to the squad. The guy's a bit rough around the edges, but he can put in a cross better than most. He was wasted at Birmingham (and admittedly in the Arsenal reserves as well) so next season will be his chance to really impress.

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
Meanwhile, Manchester United's youth squad + Schole & Brown managed to win 3-0 against Celtic. Nice to see our youth is there, even if we're not bringnig in anyone lately.
Scholes involved with all three goals is fantastic news for Man United and even possibly England (Lampard better be taking notes) supporters. Celtic aren't the toughtest opposition, but it's still good considering the level of players around him.

No chance, I'm afraid. Scholesy retired from international football years ago, and his national displays never really matched his United form anyway.Originally Posted by Loony BoB

If Scholes got into the England squad i'll punch myself, he's over the hill and not good enough. Even when he was in the team, he was just as poor as Lampard has been in an England shirt.
Scholes is past it, makes him ideal for Manure really.

Going by the rumour mill, it seems that the following moves are all but announced:
Ruud van Nistelrooy to Real Madrid
Michael Carrick to Manchester United
Desperately hoping that Mascherano will be another to join us, but I highly doubt we'll get any more than Carrick, sadly.

Someone FINALLY to replace Bellamy. Out strikers are of better quality then last season and with a midfield get stronger and better, great defenders in Neill and Nelsen we can seriously push for a Champions League place.Originally Posted by BBC
Bring on the season!:bigbiggri
