Victor Meldrew
TBM Exactly what i though, Zac

Shows he knows fcuk all about football

Care to elaborate Alan Hansen or whoever you are?


Yes

Jones and Smalling were probably the only players that came out of the tournament with some credit. They will benefit from playing together at Utd - to say they are worse than Matt Mills is laughable.

And how can you say Johnny Evans and Gibson have "failed" at only 23 years old.....Gibson is a good player but needs game time, he should have gone out on loan last season, to another Premiership club.

Modric clearly wants to leave Spurs, to progress his career. I wonder what his performances will be like next season.

Assuming you mean "next year" - I can see him him playing the usual "want away" role. Spurs might as well accept that Chelsea are a bigger draw and cash in on Modric.

Arsenal also reported today as being after Lavezzi who plays in Italy somewhere.

I only mention this as it reminds me that last week apparently Lavezzi was a surprise inclusion in the Argentinian team for a Copa America game and when one player was interviewed afterwards he was asked about that and the player confirmed that it was because Lionel Messi gets to choose who plays with him up front.

Jack Cork signs for Southampton - 4 year deal.

A player Reading should have gone for. Very good midfielder.

Cork > Karacan

Think the fact he was on loan at Saints the other year swung it for them

We sign a keeper, Jose Moreira, from Benfica. He'll likely be great passing the ball around but crap dealing with crosses.

Still not confirmed. He supposedly had a medical on July 6th, but it's not official yet. Of course, the eagerness of Wikipedia contributors in England has him already in Arsenal colours.

His agent will sort out the contract with City first - then he'll fly back for a medical.

Sky Sports understands that Arsenal have offered 18 million for Stewart Downing. I find this a bit surprising tbh.

No way is Downing worth that. Hope it's true :?
