A few interesting stories on todays BBC Gossip roundup:

Atletico Madrid and Argentina attacker Nicolas Gaitan, 29, will be offered £120,000 a week to join Swansea. (Sun)

Liverpool have entered talks to sign Gremio forward Luan, 24. The Brazil international has a £16m release clause in his contract. (Yahoo Sport)

West Ham will hold further talks with Inter Milan midfielder Joao Mario, with Inter wanting to sell the 25-year-old Portugal international. (Mail)

West Brom are interested in signing former Chelsea forward Andre Schurrle, 27, on loan. Borussia Dortmund are willing to cover part of the Germany international's £140,000-a-week wages. (Mail)

Newcastle are ready to break their transfer record to sign Algeria striker Islam Slimani, 29, from Leicester. (Mirror)

Brighton have made a bid for Newcastle's Serbian striker Aleksandar Mitrovic. The 23-year-old has not started a Premier League game this season. (Sky Sports)

Any of these look appealing? I wouldn't mind any of them tbh. Luan I don't know too much about but £16m is right in our "zone" for transfers and he has a big reputation so might be worth a look.

I'd take Schurrle on loan and Mitro if we were desperate for target man and the price was right.
 
Two defeats in 6. Better form than Everton, Hudds and Burnley.
....Yes, yes Four draws and no I don't know how long since we won a game.
This is why I still have reasonable hope of avoiding relegation....yes, we desperately need wins, but the fact we are not that easy to beat leads me to hope that the odd flash of skill and bit of good luck may tip the scales in our favour.
 
Have always thought that Poch would eventually go to Real/United/Barca. Maybe if Zidane goes it would be the right time.

Didn't Poch get to the final two candidates at Madrid but they went for Jose a few years back? I'd love to see Spurs lose him.

Don't think Real would go in for him unless I am underestimating Pochetinno's fame or they have changed their policies. He isn't a big enough name I don't think
