I hope Spurs qualify for the Misnomer League again, because if they do then it will likely be at the expense of Citeh or Chelsea, which would be hilarious, but also make it more like that we sign Walker.

Mexes and Steklenburg were the ones I was thinking off. A lot of big clubs seem to be chasing both so it might be difficult to get them. I can see Arsenal getting both as they are exactly what they need and for reasons of desperation making a big wage offer.

My guess on Cuellar going is based on the fact that even when fit he seldom gets a look in unless one of the chuckle brothers is out injured.

I've got a strange feeling that Walker is bound to go straight into the Spurs team next season as he's certainly good enough and for me better than Hutton and Corluka. I do hope they decide otherwise though.

I read some quotes from Cuellar's twitter page the othe day, he said he will be fit for Wolves and Collins is hopefull and when asked if he is staying at Villa he said yes he loves it here.

Was this a load of shit? As I don't have Twitter.

Arsenal signing a keeper *and* a centre half?  Hahaha!

Rennes Goalie Nicholas Douchez, who's contract is up in the Summer, has turned us down apparently.



I don't want him anyway. Apparently, the ball keeps going past the Douchez on the left hand side of the goal.

My mistake, according to Wiki only one's dead. Two of them are still touring as a duo under the name Musical Youth.

I was going to type out a big hoohah but I cant be arsed.
So in concise format, I give you "Bosmania: The rebuild, part deux":


Some of those players can play different positions though obviously.
Anyway, just a bit of calculated fun.


as ever Maz can be relied upon to put head and nail in the correct position

Taiwo looked decent to me for Marseille at left back last night. On a free I'd say he'd be a decent addition.

Rumoured a few months back we had a couple of players on pre-contracts.

As the source was a French journo it may be a French based player and would not be surprised by Taiwo.

Taiwo looks straight out of Freddie Bouma locker!!!

Remember FB's goal against Newcastle ?

Check out his You Tube compilations

I thought Taiwo was their best player. He looks very confident with the ball and didn't mind going forward.
