I hope Kendrick is wrong, and that's not impossible. Belhanda is exactly the type of player we could do with.

Not saying this about just this possible deal, but there will be so much smoke and mirrors at this time of year it's hard to know what to believe. Is it out of the realms of possibility for the club to have had a word with Kendrick to play down certain stories? I know that they have sometimes categorically denied rumours if there really was no truth to them.

Kendrick has a good track record on transfers. I believe him.

He reports as the club brief him although as others suggest above, their motives in doing so this time of year could be a bit smoke and mirrors.

Not since Lambert has come he hasn't. He's actually been quite late in reporting on many transfers this season.

Kendrick has been late, but he's been accurate I think.

I can be late and accurate as well.

If we don`t get carried away when they say something is on the cards, then we should treat this sort of tweet with equal skepticism.

He's late and accurate because the club will give him tidbits but only when it suits them.

there's not a journo alive who knows as much as he wants you to think he does. Its been the same way since Lerner took over and if something leaks its invariably from the "other" side as in this case. If Kendrick had come out with this before their chairman had blabber-mouthed it to the world then i'd be inclined to think he had an inside source. As it is, all the ones this summer with at least quotes from the players involved had nowt to do with Kendrick's supposed inside-knowledge
