    I hope you're right on that Craving, but I don't see it. Pog will stay, Dempsey will go and Dembele will... have to wait and see what kind of offers come in.

    Get ready for the tradition Arsenal transfer saga:

    Team: We want £Xm.
    Wenger: We'll give you £X-1m.
    Team: No, we don't need to sell. We want £Xm.
    Wenger: We'll give you £X-1m.
    Team: ....

    They don't want to pay another 500k for Schwarzer but are more than happy to shell out £15 million for AOC.

    Based on this article, it certainly looks as if Simon could be on his way -

    http://www.fulhamchronicle.co.uk/london-sport/fulham-fc/2012/04/27/jol-issues-warning-to-fulham-stalwart-82029-30848737/

    Following such a serious injury, he was always going to struggle and unfortunately time has caught up on him. Hopefully the club will do their best to find him a decent signing. Whatever, Simon will always have great respect from Fulham fans.

    It would be with a heavy heart if I was to see Davies leave the club, but I'm afraid his time has come. Rotten luck with injuries, but will always have a place with FFC fans after his performances during the EL run including 'that' goal.

    Agreed. The semi-final goal is my favourite Fulham goal for so many reasons, and he's a player that I've always had a lot of time for. It would be a huge shame to lose him, but I certainly wouldn't begrudge him making a move to get more first team playing time elsewhere.

    It really does get better every time you see it! The two touch and then finish really does remind me of the Bergkamp goal for Holland. You know the one...

    Goals like this really make me wish we had EL football to look forward to every season.

    Year on, year off. When we win the FA Cup next season, we'll soon be back in Europa action.

    I see that David's brother Rasmus Elm has (or as much as) signed for L'pool for a reputed £8m. Would have made a decent replacement should either D & D go; certainly better than Chadli who seems to be the surrogate being strongly bandied about. Although he is probably about half Elm's price.

    Personally ignoring what he has said, Harry Rednap must be gutted.
    I see Bale going and possibly an other. 40m+
    and i feel he will go for both Demps & Dembele ? 18/20m,and
    the 10 mil Levy has promised to throw in,he can get a couple of useful
    additions for the 30m kitty he will have.

    Bale said he'd go if they didn't get in the CL. They currently lie in fourth position, so they're not out of the running yet.

    I personally feel Tottenham won't get 4th. I'm not sure they will beat Bolton in their next game. I can see Bale and Modric both leaving.

    If the two of them go I can't see VDV wanting to hang around and with Adebayor's loan deal ending it leaves them with an average to good squad that needs a lot of investment to get them to the level they want to be. This could be a disastrous summer for Spurs. Hopefully they stay away from D & D, or pay top money to get them.

    True, and with their other loan signings (Nelsen, Saha) also likely to leave, it's looking a bit threadbare. Maybe Redknapp will give Bentley another chance? <laugh>
