Repped for this... Thanks...
Some decent players in there... Woodgate if he could get over his injuries.
Sebastian Larsson a good player too.
Johan Elmander can't be right can it... He's decent too

 

[Springsteen]

I think Elmander's actually gone to Galatasaray.

Sam Hutchinson is a sad one, he's only 21 and had to retire thanks to a knee injury.

 

[Racks]

Oh right... Liverpool have released Insua aswell...
I wonder if you can get who has been release from the Spanish clubs

 

[Sparkey Duck]

I wish Barton would shut his face and f**k off already...

 

[Peter Parka]

The Nolan deal is officially done, he's now a Hammer. This will be THE signing of the Championship this summer. :thumbup

Indeed, it's not often that a championship team can pull off a signing of a premiership player who is, in my opinion, good enough for England.

I really don't understand Nolan's interest in this transfer. He's a talented player. I'm with Zorak on this one, he has potential to play for England. Why leave the league everyone (at least in the Championship) dreams of competing in?

I think he's given up on England, and I can understand why. No manager wants to give him a chance. Ok, he doesn't have the talent of a Gerrard, Lampard or Wilshere - but he performs consistently and always knocks in the goals; 12 I believe it was last year.
Seeing Scott Parker, Jermaine Jenas, Keiron Dyer, Tom Huddlestone and Michael Carrick being picked ahead of him probably doesn't help lol

Maybe he wants to play in front of home supporters who can create an atmosphere. I'm guessing that there is a lot of problems at Newcastle with the manager and board, seems like he's not the only one who wants to leave Geordieland.

Hahah, oh yeah, I forgot how brilliant those West Ham supporters are

Fair enough though in terms of what you said about Newcastle being a bit shaky. I heard a few Newcastle players may jump ship this summer.

 

[Racks]

Liverpool closing in on Zapata... Great signing if we can pull it of.
Very aggressive and Very fast centre half... Liverpool hasn't had a Fast centre back in years

[Springsteen]

Alex Mcleish is the new Villa manager, no surprise but now it's official.

 

[Tuffdisc]

Looks like we have Sylvan Marveaux coming to Anfield
Sylvan Marveaux

 

[Tuffdisc]

On another note, due to the amount of games Kyrgiakos has played last season, he has earn't himself a 12months extension....at least we can get dough for him if anyone wants to buy him

 

[Springsteen]

I can reveal where Alexis Sanchez will be going....

It'll either be Barcelona, Man United, Chelsea, Manchester City or Inter Milan.

But he isn't staying at Udinese, that much is guaranteed.

 

[Zorak]

Some talk about Eto'o moving to the Emirates.

I don't believe a word of it, he's the wrong side of 30 now.

Wenger only likes young boys. :ninja

Midfielder Sylvain Marveaux has failed a medical, and won't play for Liverpool I heard he was injury prone

 

[Springsteen]

He's apparently signed for Newcastle, or going to.

They might have a different medical routine than Newcastle
