It's not all that bizarre when you consider how boringly predictable them bigging up their old club is.

True enough.

Just bizarre in the sense that I thought BT Sport was going to be a brave new footballing world that would have Sky quaking in their boots. Or at least thats what the advertising and hype said. And then they signed up Michael Owen. *Sigh*

Liverpool probably still owe us more than they will get from the grumble wranglers for the weasel.

£5mill is the figure mentioned that West Ham are paying.

A bloke who bottles out of tackles. I'm sure he will go down REALLY well in the East End of London...

Similar to RVP and Man Utd, Suarez (I'm gonna go with contemptable piece of shit?) bangs in enough goals that he raised them up a level.  Without him they'll finish lower than last season, unless them sell him soon and re-invest the money well.   

What would make my transfer window, would be them selling the goofy, racist, cheating scumbag at about 8 o'clock on deadline day evening and then scrabbling about spunking their money on duds like the Torres transfer.

I'll go you one better - they sell him when you say and then ask for Bent.  We quote them £20m.

Anyone think that if Real pull out of buying Bale, Utd might go and get him for say £80 million plus Hashley Young ? They then could step in and resolve the Suarez to Arsenal issue as well and offload some other rubbish to Liverpool - ie I can see Liverpool being more willing to sell him to Utd than to their 'direct competitors' for 4th ? I think Baines will be there for 20 million very soon.

This of course assumes that Utd have about 150 million in spare cash down the back of the sofa, but with the addition of those 2 they would surely pip those light blues and the fops from West London to the Premiership title.

What does it matter to Villa ? Well, a weakened Spurs, Pool and Arsenal all might give us a chance to rough things up a bit for 4th. And I am serious.

Not that I can think of.  The only two players moving directly between the clubs were (I think) Ramon Calliste, an academy cast-off whom Liverpool picked up after Man Utd released him (and went on to achieve the sum total of fuck all) and Phil Chisnall; bought by Liverpool from Utd in the 60's with equal success (or lack thereof).

I can't see Bale going anywhere other than Real Madrid.

If there is a weakening of the sides in and around 4th, then it's a year or two early for us to seriously be thinking of taking advantage of it.
