Silly season is almost here, the media will be making up transfers on a daily basis linking us to half of the football world. Just for fun if you see a transfer rumour post it on here and I'll keep a list updated so that we can see quite clearly how mental these media football people are. List so far. Luuk de Jong Arjen Robben Younes Belhanda Rasmus Elm Gaston Ramirez Ibrahim Afellay Hulk Keisuke Honda
Only if you want to sing " best midfield in the world" again Eljero Elia wants out of Juve, Unai Emery is out of work at valencia, good young coach.
I really like Lucas Moura,Banega and Leandro Damiao (we aint gonna get Hazard ) Suspect Gaston R, Hoilett,Elm,Luuk DE Jong is more realiistic
Would love it but can't see any of the top ones, maybe a banega since he has gone quiet since his injury but Damiao I think will be off to italy first along with ganso and Moura is madrid bound I believe.
i honestly think 80% of all paper print is repeats of rumours in one form or another. ie. take a link and add some text to it like renewing interest, or registering interest or have competition form spurs etc etc.
Hoilett is one I missed. Luuk de Jong Arjen Robben Younes Belhanda Rasmus Elm Gaston Ramirez Ibrahim Afellay Hulk Keisuke Honda Junior Hoilett
In bold is who I would take from that list, and i didn't have de jong as I think we should really try and get soldado, would be a big statement, make a lot of people happy I think. Might need to snatch him up before Euros though I feel!!!!
I also think it is a crime for Afellay to just be chillin on Barca's bench, he would be first team on literally any team bar madrid probably. He is quality but just can't get a game there!
I've seen him play a few times and agree with you, he can play either wing and off the striker, would be perfect for us.
Didn't someone at Melwood quash rumors of having only £20m to spend by saying that at least one of our targets is rated well over that? Wonder who it is if true? Judging by last summer I will not be getting my hopes up.
It's Colin Lee, we've valued him at 30 million. http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/oddballs/885691-72-year-old-pensioner-is-britains-oldest-goalkeeper
They bought him for 4 million. Cheap as chips. I would love to have Sahin in our team as well from Real but they don't wnat to let him go and are inclined on him sitting the bench I guess :/
Belhanda I think is another one we dont stand much chance with. Rumours are now that whoever gets Hazard, then all the other clubs who missed out are going after Belhanda. That includes Arsenal, Man City etc
Balhanda is a Morrocan attacking mid/ forward who plays for Montpellier. Him and Hazard have apparently been the two best players in France this year. He is quick and creative. One of those 'the balls stuck to his feet' type players. I'v only seen clips, but he looks very exciting. Man City are apparently considering him if they fail to get there first choice signings. Him and Suarez either side of Carroll could terrorize many defences.
