Paris St-Germain are ready to offer £80m for Chile forward Alexis Sanchez, 28, as they try to beat Manchester City for the Arsenal star. (Independent) Pixie will be praying that this is just bull-****. He's gone out on a limb by predicting that Sanchez "definitely" won't be leaving this Summer, and that he's probably going to sign a new contract.
Barcelona want to sign Liverpool's Brazil playmaker Philippe Coutinho, 25, by the end of the week. (Mirror) But Liverpool are refusing to sell Coutinho, as a Barcelona delegation flew to England to negotiate a deal. The La Liga club are willing to up their bid to £120m. (Star) Mousers seem to be divided on this. I was listening to Durham and Gough on TalkSport, driving home, last night, and quite a few Mousers called in. Of those that I could understand what they were saying, some were "dead against it, like!" whilst others took the philosophical view that "if dey don't wanna stay, like, den de best thing to do, like, is to let them leave, like!" I wonder what our resident Mousers think about this?
Negotiations between Everton and Swansea over a deal for Iceland midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson, 27, have broken down but any suggestion the deal is completely off is nonsense. (Sky Sports) Yeah, you idiots! Just because the negotiations have "broken down" how the Hell can anyone think that the deal might be off? What kind of morons are you?
Show me the quote where I've said he 'definitely won't be leaving this summer' and 'he's probably going to sign a new contract' or it's another WFU.
Come off it, Pix! I'm distilling the contents of some pretty lengthy discussions between you and me, and presenting the gist of what you said.
Didn't you read what I said? You were criticising me for suggesting that Sanchez would leave your club, ergo you believe that he will definitely be staying. You also said that it was possible that he might sign another contract. This really isn't rocket science, Pix.
Wow calm down. I wasn't criticising you, I simply pointed out that you said 'He'll be off'. I haven't said anything about him 'definitely' staying. Also I said that depending on how it goes next season, if he's still at Arsenal and they have a good season, then it's possible that he could sign another contract. I can't help it that you walk into these **** ups mate.
Alonso chips in with bare goals, that looks like Rose's agent chucking bird feed out and seeing which pigeons take it. It was United last week.
Scratching around for Spurs news probably. Levy waiting for prices to drop so he can bid for Ross Barkley and Danny Simpson.
Poch was on the radio this morning as it goes. Came across very well tbf and said they were definitely signing some players this window. Shame really as his interview could have had great wum potential!
I've got no doubt they'll sign a few players, they'll do it the Spurs way. A handful of talent and one will turn out a star, fair play to them the model works.
I heard that interview, Sky. He said that Levy was working very hard behind the scenes to sign players, and that we could expect to see 3 or 4 players come in during this window.
