Either Modric isn't getting 14 or Modric might not even come at all... which is probably the most likely. Happy to see KDB will get a chance to compete for a place in pre season, hope he is part of the squad this season.

Cheeky bid for Joe Hart would be nice instead of Turnbull. Wont happen though but if it did I would eat my foot.

Might as well try and sign Usain Bolt up if we want this guy.... all he is a sprinter lmao. EDIT: Fs someone beat me to the Usain Bolt idea

Lloris is basically up for sale though, Lyons chairman said if they get the right bid hes free to go. 15 million would probably do the trick as well when they could so much more for him..

The Madrid One.... noooooooooot Gonna say SeB as well. Class posts as per usual.

The official twitter account posted a link to a blog on the website, that doesn't confirm we are signing him.... despite reports making it look that we are.

HE LEAVES WHEN HE WANTS, HE LEAVES WHEN HE WANTS, ROBIN VAN PERSIE, HE LEAVES WHEN HE WANTS!! Lets see how Arsenal do now without him.

HAHAHAH THIS WOULD BE QUALITY. PIERS MORGAN WOULD BE CRYING FOR CENTURIES!!!!

I doubt that, remember against West Brom when our own fans were singing your getting sacked in the morning?

Heard Santos had offered Ganso 115k p/w.

I miss AVB sadly, will hate seeing him as Spurs boss

Isn't Witsel not basically for sale? Sign him up !

Yeah but as someone said its usually 50-50 not 90-10 by the sounds of Hulk's rights.

I see that Paddy McCourt was in that first post, what a beast that man could be when he wants. Lol

If he is cheaper then 20 quid then surely we will sign him

Suppose he does offer the chance to rest Mata but I meant more that we had signed him a few years too late. Maybe if we got him 3-4 years ago he would of been much more useful.

Oh aye a forgot about Insigne, seen one of the Napoli fans post a video about him somewhere and he looked quite good. Hes like 5 ft 4 or something? Has some amount of pace and close control.

Gianluca Di Marzio(Sky Sports): Maicon is close to joining Chelsea for 8M. Negotiations between Inter and Chelsea at a very advanced stage. #CFC -S

They have a ready made replacement in Eduardo Vargas surely... or will they look to bring another winger in?

How the fuck in modern football do 2 clubs own one player, in a percentage of 90 to 10? Da Fuq

Why the fuck would he want go and play with David Beckham?

Lets just get Rami taking steroids and work on his shooting.... then we have our own Hulk

Never though Benayoun was a signing we needed, best he moves on.

Dislike the fact the media slated him before being sacked in March, you cannot be expected to do a decent job while half the players are against everything you try to do. Ourselves as fans can't just blame AVB for everything, he was asked to go in clear the older players out and build a team that could play nice football and win trophies, he simply wasn't given enough cooperation from some of the players and time from the board to do it. I am not necessarily giving the club all the blame from AVB being sacked but he doesn't deserve all that criticism from people on this forum and in the media. He made mistakes yes, maybe he took the job too soon, so what? If you were offered a top job at a top club you would bite the fuckers hands off no matter how young/inexperienced you were. Yes he should of signed another creative player be it Modric (even if he wanted him or not) or Moutinho or someone else but still he tried to work with what he had with a few changes (Sturridge, Mata, Romeu and eventually Cahill). Also if you think about it he started the rebuilding process, selling Alex and Anelka to PSG and that Chinese club. Then he (or the club) signed Kevin De Bruyne and Thibaut Courtois from Genk as part of his long term vision, switched to a more offensive style of play and wanted to build the team around the likes of Mata, Torres and Sturridge. Roman wanted him to rebuild the team, to play a more offensive style of play and he tried that. When things went wrong it was much easier to sack AVB than sell all the senior players who were being benched/dropped/rotated like they had never been before. I hope he does well at Spurs or whoever he manages, he deserved a bit better than what he got at Chelsea but he will have learned from his experience no doubt. As manpe said he got plenty of experience in the CL and PL despite him only being in charge for 8 months. I just hope he doesn't come back to haunt us too much but I can see it happening.

If Maicon moved to Real Madrid, The Madrid One would be having a jizzfest over how good Maicon is. Maybe he is past it or maybe he isn't but when Jose was at Inter I remember Maicon being better than any other RB in the world... which was only 3 years ago so he can't be that bad now surely? Just do we need another 31 year old when we are trying to build a younger squad?
