Not sure if a right back is what we need, but those QPR fans do sound fairly convinced he's coming to us.

Spurs fans seem absolutely convinced there's no chance it'll be anything other than a loan and he is certain to be given a chance at 'The Lane'.

I hope we're not stooping to developing other clubs players. A loan is fine, providing we have an option.

A view to a permanent signing or an insult. We're not training Spurs youngsters now surely? I will throw my ribs up if that's the case.

Depressing that a club we were challenging last season is now willing to loan us their talented young players.

In a few weeks four fifths of their midfield could read:
Beckham, Modric, Van Der Vaart, Bale

Puts it into perspective, what a monumental fuck up the back end of 2008/09 was.

Your right, but what sort of mess would we be in now, with the type of players Martin would have bought if we had made top four.

Cahill has a very busy agent. He's been 'linked' with all of the Sky 4 at some point.
i think this one has legs

We get 20% of anything over £5m don't we?

That should cover the loss we might make on Ashley's sell on to Watford...

I still cannot get over this Ronaldinho Blackburn thing.

Surely, it has to be bollocks. Bet he will love living round there.

He probably thinks they play Samba football but instead it's football with Chris Samba.

It will be all money, he would demand well over 100k a week.

I don't know. Man U loaned Kuszczak before they bought him. If he comes in and helps so be it. I wouldn't get so hung up on who we are bringing in, especially in January. I'd rather we loaned a solid player than spent over the odds on someone permanently that didn't work out. January is tough, so this may be a decent way to add to the squad in a position that we could do with a little help without really committing to anything.

Didn't Blues agree a £10 million fee with Wigan for N'Zogbia? £10 million seems a bit steep for someone who's probably going to start moaning about wanting to leave after a season.
They did, he agreed wages and everything but then at the last minute he demanded they double his wages to approx £60,000pw and Blues did the right thing and told him to do one...........He is trouble, u only have to look at his sending off and no way is he worth £60,000 pw

Nearly as bad, he agreed wages of £40k and then wanted an additional £10k a week and they called the deal off.

He probably thought 40k was a OK to start with. Then when Blues agreed and put the contract in front of him, he would have to imagine actually being one of them and thinks no, fuck it, I need more. If he is in any way a decent human being, that would have gone on indefinitely until they pulled the plug.

Every opposition manager with an ounce of intelligence would just say attack them down the right against the player who can't run. Beckham is finished and has been for a while.

Stop believing the hype.
