i don't think he'll come. he's 29, seems to enjoy playing for schalke, and they do have champions league. i think huntelaar was floated as a replacement for , which obviously isn't happening now

we're linked with selling dzeko to juve for 15 mil and then getting jovetic. i'd like this, i rate jovetic highly and dzeko really doesn't look committed to being 3rd/4th in line, as he shouldn't. problem is we rejected 20 mil from bayern, so i dont see us accepting 15 from juve. idk though, the last bit of the window should be pretty interesting for us.

Nope but for say £20m and Rooney we can make him think that way for you.

[Irish Jet]

The way Rooney is playing I'd swap him for N'GOG.

Gerrard should have joined us. We would have dominated with him. He would have had his Premier League medals he craves for too.

Oh well. We won everything without him and he aint winning anything big again, so his loss

Gutted about Sahin joining Liverpool. But I think there was very little point in a deal where there is no buyout clause at the end of the loan period especially given the wonderful talent that he is. If he had been a hit (which I every reason to suspect he would have been) it would have been extremely gutting to see him head back after his loan period. Also if what has been said about the loan fee and Liverpool covering most of his wages is true, then I am not surprised this would have put frugal AW off.

That being said I hope he has got some aces up his sleeve. Just tie up the M'Villa deal asap and then bring in a new defender and that will have to do, for now.

DA GOAT Carling Cup > That Champions league thing.

Kid holding the base knows how much it's really worth. They would've taken the Community Shield over that Disney cup.

Great player by all accounts but will the massive fee be worth it for a simple year loan? Only if they reach Champions League imo, which will be extremely difficult.

[WWE_TNA]

How much did they pay for a one year loan? please tell me it isn't over 5m.

[Chain Gang Soldier]

£5m fee then I believe we are paying 80% or so of his wages bringing it up to around £9-10m altogether for the year
