    Ha!

    In seriousness though I don't think Shelvey is as bad as people make him out to be. That England cap threw him into the limelight too much though.

    Shelvey is too slow when on the ball, both physically and mentally, to ever make it at the top level imo

    Also Negredo is very close to joining Man City apparently

    Possibly. I doubt it'd be our input though, Ward-Prowse played the majority of England's games.

    No....but I would imagine the beneficiaries of the transfer funds would be keen to not see him get hurt!

    Would they have that much influence over the national team though?

    Hard to say, just seems odd that he only gets little run-outs.

    No, I don't think so. It can be done for international friendlies, but no one on the outside will be able to affect the team selection for a competitive tournament.

    It has happened before though. There is record existing of the Brazilian FA selecting players scattershot with the aim of increasing their transfer value.

    South America really is a different world in terms of what goes on, well, along with Italy.

    Betting on Luis Suarez to Arsenal has been suspended by a number of bookmakers.

    As I said on the Off Topic thread, Digne and Toulalan are having medicals at Monaco.

    Eish. Although if a manager could sort Suarez out, I would be fairly confident Wenger could do it, if not he truly is a lost cause.

    Holy **** that would be a mega signing for Arsenal. And would also mightily piss off the Liverpool fans.

    Wow, they're actually signing some French players! Have they buried the hatchet with the FFF?

    Was 20/1 earlier today, so if not suspended everywhere then they've definitely been slashed everywhere else.
