Summer 2010 Transfer Thread: B*llsh*t, Rumours & Wishes

[SoccerHQ]

Spurs put in a double bid for Kjaer and Cavani.

The signing of Cavani who's a striker indicates to me that Robbie Keane will be put up for sale very shortly.

Still novel way this, spurs actually signing replacements before they sell a player.

[PaulTheVillan]

Seems that Woodgate is going to retire and Keane is being sold.

Hope we sign Keane. £8m tops.

[eastie]

£28m too, old harry loves to splash the cash.

I agree with what some Spurs fans have been saying. If these are Redknapp’s signings, then I’ll eat my hat. Its got Levy all over it.

Kjaer is quality.

Kjaer is quality.

I think he lacks a bit of pace.

[Monty]

And ability on the ball.

Be interesting to see those two in the Prem, think it is a lot of money for them.

See Wigan have signed an Argentinian for 6 million with a good scoring record.

Bit of a "scores but does nothing else" player, though, Boselli.  Still, that kind of player can be very useful indeed to teams in the middle third of the Premier League, as Bent showed last year.

[SoccerHQ]

Never heard of Boselli tbh.

Kjaer looked a bit dodgy at the world cup, was knocked off the ball quite easily. Could be the next Laursen but equally the next Per Kroldrup aswell.

We do have scouts and they are looking for promising players from all over the place.
We have some at the club already in the academy/reserve sides and we're definitely after more. Europeans, Americans, Aussies... etc

South Koreans...?

The Independent

Aston Villa have expressed an interest in South Korea international Cho Yong-hyung, according to the player's agent.

The central defender played in all four games at the World Cup as the Taeguk Warriors reached the last 16 for the first time on foreign soil.

Cho, 26, currently plays for Korean side Jeju United but his performances for his country have attracted interest from a host of clubs across Europe according to Yoon Ki-yeon of the player's agency Inspokorea.

"Aston Villa and a few other European clubs have shown interest in Cho," he said in The Korea Herald."I can confirm that he is on their transfer list and I expect the official deal will be made after the World Cup."

Not that I want to second guess, but 'd asume this player isn't gnna be a giant, by any stretch. I think it's fair to assume, if Martin was gonna sign a CB, it'd be someone, safely over 6ft. Thre's a few of th Korean team I wouldn't mind from further up te pitch.

Cavani is quite a good player. Not prolific, but I see him being good foil for Defoe. He'll be more imposing than Crouch, and less prone to moaning than Pavlyuchenko.

Would seem we're gonna see Robbie Keane in a Villa shirt. It looks like we're after him, and we'd be his best option.

Guy at work with contacts (Yes they all do) has told me that Milner is going to city and we are getting SWP as part of the deal.

I hope its bollocks because I don't rate him at all.

Don't see it happening, but must pass bollocks on!

nooooooooooo.... jesus, he must be the worse crosser of the ball in the premiership.

Me neither. All too often SWP looks like he's incapable of keeping a football within 5 yards of him.

If we have to get cast offs, I'd rather have Ireland. Be better off taking a lump sum and buying someone better in truth.

I'd still hope Milner will stay.
