Seb Larsson has signed a new deal at Sunderland.
MLS side Portland Timbers have reportedly offered Man City out of contract defender Julian Lescott a £1.2m a year deal.
Phew.
Thank **** for that. I thought he'd be a genuine target.
How do you know he wasn't? I think he was fella. Bruce has always rated him and word is you offered him a contract.
You're right to phew though fella.
Apparently, losing Lampard, Cole and Luiz has wiped £400k a week from Chelsea's wage bill.
That's half our wage bill for the entire club ffs.
Never meant to imply that he wasn't fella. Its just irrelevant now as he's committed himself to you lot so he won't be our target anymore.
Right you are fella. Wonder how much you're paying him.
Not too much I hope. I'm happy with him resigning, i'd rather us spread the overhaul over a few seasons, we already need about ten new signings in all. But the wages have to be right, that way he's becomes a saleable asset. Hope he's been give no more than 20k-25k a week. No way he'll be on the 40k a week he was said to be on. Nobody on the planet would pay him that much again. Squad player for teams of our level, he wouldn't have brought you much.
Any progress on Livermore for you fellas?
He'll do much better than that.

Not yet, rumours of Palace trying to gazump us, but as is normally the case at this time of year, it's all paper-talk at the moment.

What sort of price is being touted?
£4m-£8m take your pick.
Well you're dealing with Levy so chances are that he'll want full whack and draw it right out to get top pennies. Hate Levy me, pure **** to deal with.

£8m seems to be the price most often quoted and the rumour is we're trying to get him and Dawson for £10m, but it's all just Chinese whispers at the moment.
talksport and sky sports news radio are both saying that Hull City boss SB has £25m to spend this summer. So no wonder that Levy wants to get as much as he can for his players. He needs to trim the Spurs squad and release funds for his new manager.
Talksport and SSN haven't the faintest idea how much we're going to spend this summer, they're just guessing.
