January Transfer Rumors/List

Man City say Balotelli will not leave.

Spurs have paid Schalke to bring Holtby's signing forward and he will now join this month. AVB must have big plans for him.

Fer will join Everton.


So some of our key competition has gotten stronger. We need to scalp Arsenal on Wednesday night!

 

Fer nickname is "The bouncer" due to his physical prescence on the pitch. AKA he will run right through our midfield.

 

Wouldnt it mean he wouldnt let our players through?

 

I reckon Jermaine Pennant could run straight through our midfield

 

Any team we have played with some physical prescence this year has killed us through the middle: West Ham (Diame), Chelsea (Mikel), Arsenal (Diaby), Oldham ( everyone).

We struggle, and if Allen plays he will be targetted by these players.

 

I'd add West Brom (Mulumbu) to that list too (cracking player by the way)

 

Strangely when we were at our worst, at the start of the season, we completely nullified Yaya Toure (probably Allen's best game).

 

That game showed how good Allen can be.

Spearing can handle it.

 

Reading are in for him.


Reading Post reporter Jonny Fordham on Twitter: "Brian McDermott confirms Thomas Ince bid."

 

Hope they get him.

 

They probably will.

 

£2.8M to add to the coffers! If they bid £8M for him.. hope there's a bidding war for him!

 

Aston Villa...?

 

I'd be very happy with him joining Reading. My only concern is that at Reading he would be free to play without the immense pressure that a Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, etc brings so may well shine and, in the media's eyes, back us look bad again. No disrespect to Reading intended

 

as long as we make a few bucks off the deal to reading i'm happy.

kids decent but we're looking for special

 

We don't really do special though, do we?

 

Some would say Stewart Downing is special...

 

Special needs

 

SSN reporting that Reading have withdrew their offer for Tom Ince because Blackpool are refusing to sell.

 

Oh, how quick you are...
