The latest Twitter murmurings are about a winger at Bordeaux called Thomas Toure...

Saw that too in the Mail this morning, it fails to mention that Dortmund are also in the mix.

Are Dortmund picking up now? They were bottom a couple of weeks back?

Anyhow, in the picture he looked terribly like a French Gabby!

Doubt it, as the lazy Germans won't have played a proper match since about mid-December.

I got excited seeing that Karlsruhe (my German team) had won 5-0 away against Freiburg, only to then realise it was a pissing friendly.

No Milner/Delph swap deal chat yet..... :)

Dont think Milner is good enough for Arsenal to be honest, they have the likes of Ramsey as box to box midfielders and need more of a holding midfielder brute like our man Carlos Sanchez

Milner back as captain for us perhaps

If you look on YouTube for him the first few clips of him are his meat and two veg popping out during a game.

Assuming Paul Allen takes over, Messi's unhappy.

'El Sexy Accidente del Futbolista Thomas Toure' might be the best title for a youtube video ever

I'd like to see Sanchez as captain...he's a committed, talented player, experienced and has played in the most recent WC for a team who did particularly well...and he probably knows enough languages to communicate with everybody....except Gabby.

Got some top top ITK knowledge for ya:

One of my pupils met him at the Villa kids christmas party thing and apparently his English is not good, so maybe not for a little while yet.

If as captain he communicates with the other players soley by slapping them & pointing where they need to be I am fine with that.

Judging by Lamberts comments in the Mail, he's looking for another striker.

If the contract City are offering Milner is miles off what he wants then we've got no chance with 50.000 a week.

According to the Guardian money is secondary to promises of proper game time. Was supposed to be raging at being subbed against Arsenal at half-time. Has had some offers already from big clubs abroad but he's just had a kid so more likely to stay local. Liverpool, I guess.
