Yep - and with Nasri to Man City looking to be on over the weekend, it means Wenger's going to have £50-odd mill to spend (as he's been told he can use all of the money from transfer sales, which is nice). Interesting to see who he'll go for.

Team Talk reporting SWP to Bolton, Krankjaer to Sunderland on loan, very much on.

Oh, there it is: preliminary talks with Scott Dann. Sky Sports 'understands'.

Probably another airy-fairy 18 year old winger.

300k/w to put up with bananas thrown at you and racial abuse sounds like a good deal.

Yep. And a second striker good for around 12 goals a season. Maybe a really quick full-back who can't defend.

Liverpool getting Jose Enrique for £6m, apparently. Things speeding up a bit now.

Looks like Enrique is off to Liverpool, a bloody good left back. Shame we arn't in the running for his signature.

At £6m that could comfortably turn out to be their best signing of the summer.  Geordie mate reckons he's a great player.

Enrique is a good move for them.

I remember Downing singing his praises in the webchat thing when he was still at Villa.
Perhaps that weasel knew he would be joining him over there even then.

Let's hope he does as well as the last Full Back they sold who the fans thought was "great".

If Newcastle lose Barton, Nolan and Enrique this summeron top of Carroll in Jan they will be in for a struggle this season, may even go down.  Perhaps we could take Tiote off their hands too.

They're at least mostly replacing the players they move on.

I like him too. Unfortunately, he's made of glass and has even less stamina than Petrov.

Liverpool just bid for Carlos Tevez. Apparently they've offered 200 plasma TV's, 6 rolls of carpet and 72 pairs of Reebok classics.
