Why would you want Wenger to abandon them? He is the reason why Arsenal have never won anything for the past 8 years!! If he leaves and some other manager comes along, he might have ambitions, you know. . to win a trophy! Hence, Wenger should stay. In Wenger i trust!!

So @whatthemata came back and then vanished again? That's one hell of way to make a comeback.

For a want away player, not really!! 30 should have been the limit!!

Could be! You never know, although no trace of the tweet on Bale's timeline now!

Aldershot Town 1992 ‏@OfficialShots23m A big thanks to @chelseafc for their participation in saving #TheShots - looking forward to seeing your U21/U19s playing at the EBB!

You don't pay 85M Pounds for a player who could become something. 85 freaking million pounds is paid for the likes of Cristiano who won the UCL and the league and Ballon d'or! I just cannot get it down my throat that Gareth Bale will be the most expensive player in the history of football. Something's wrong with the world!!

Chelsea have forged a new partnership with Aldershot Town, saving the club and bringing them out of administration. "An unlikely third party [Chelsea] have stepped forward to play a pivotal role in giving the cash-stricken club a new lease of life." "They have also persuaded their kit suppliers, Adidas, to provide the club with a brand new home and away kit completely free of charge." One of the new board’s first appointments is expected to be the return of ex-Aldershot and Chelsea favourite Darren Barnard as the new Head of Academy. http://www.gethampshire.co.uk/sport/aldershottownfc/s/2136111_aldershot_town_forges_new_deal_with_chelsea_fc Wonder if this will get front page coverage like most things CFC do. Anyway, proud to see our club helping other clubs out!

3 of top 5 scorers of La Liga have moved out of Spain ( Falcao, Negredo, Soldado) plus Higuain.

Uumm. . no! Way too back before i started to follow EPL. I have Mirallas in my FPL team.(That should explain why i am asking so much about Martinez's plans, lol). Alcaraz from what i saw with Wigan was a regular starter for them in their 3 man defense so i think that might be the case here too.

Tottenham Hotspur ‏@SpursOfficial11s We are delighted to announce that we have reached agreement with Valencia for the transfer of Roberto Soldado subject to medical. #THFC

David Luiz lookalike joins David Luiz (and the rest of Chelsea's stars) for Washington workout http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2382348/David-Luiz-trains-lookalike-Chelsea-prepare-Inter-Milan.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

If bale goes to Madrid, i will have to completely overhaul my planning. Although it certainly does free up funds to play around.

Pretty sure Anichebe will make way for Jelavic or Kone! Mirallas, i feel, could be the breakthrough player for Everton this year. Alcaraz in place of Stones may be, the team looks good!

@Shogun, what were Martinez's tactics? Playing his favored 3 5 2? Was it close to the first team we might see in the league?

One thing that has gone missing in the figures quoted for Bale's transfer is that Saints are supposed to receive 2.5% of any transfer money. They must be grinning from ear to ear!

On Roman's commitment to the club, Jose Mourinho said: “There was always these questions, ‘When is he going to sell it?’ ‘Is he in love with the club?’ ‘Is he in love with football?’ ‘Is he doing this for the right reasons?’,” Mourinho said. “But I remember when we started building Cobham. Me and Peter Kenyon were worried about getting just the right conditions and to have a good base. “Roman was always going for more, always going for future. He was: ‘If we can build 15 pitches, why build only four?’ We said, ‘because four is what we need now – two for the first team, one for the reserves and one for the youth’. “He was, ‘no, no, if we can build 15, then do it for the future, for the kids. The academy need the same conditions as the first team’. “Roman is always adding ideas and pushing because he sees a future. Everybody was saying: ‘Win the Champions League or win the Premier League and he will go.’ He won the Premier League and the Champions League, and his mentality is exactly the same. He is fantastic. “Now he’s proved it and the value of Chelsea in this market is huge. I’m 100 per-cent sure [that even] with a big offer, Roman doesn’t sell.”

@Stingray,@Tiwaz,

Emanuel Roşu ‏@Emishor41mBreaking news: Vlad Chiriches' transfer to #thfc off after owner Becali cancelled the move from jail!!! Lol, Spurs could be in trouble here. Caulker gone, Gallas released, Vertonghen injured.

Spurs are close to signing romanian Vlad Chiricheș from FC Steaua București, hence let go of Caulker.

Tottenham Hotspur ‏@SpursOfficial3m We have reached agreement with Cardiff City for the transfer of Steven Caulker. #THFC

All are drunk, Bavarian beers are too good to be not had for mere pre season. 5-3 at HT!

Great work again, mate! Respect grows bigger and bigger!!
