you never know...those arabs maybe possess different cheque books then the ones we're used to...

Dumb half of manchester on the dumb side of the canal?? There's no winning is there?

Unless you need a B-double truck to move it...you're not even close.

Dani Parejo's going back to Madrid, terminating his loan to QPR. This guy looks to be good. Him, De la Red and Javi Garcia are the future of Madrid's midfield.
Redknapp has said Gilberto's going.

De La Red doesn't stack up to much actually. He'll never get a consistant first team chance. He'll be the new Guti. Parejo's certainly tops though.

I rather like Schneider :) he is certainly more of an AM but he has the versatility to play in both positions. His problem is his always fucking injured!!!!!!](*,)

You mean Sneijder right?? Schneider plays for Bayer Leverkusen.

Yeh lol, forgot there was a J.:oops:

Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano has emerged as the £20m hot favourite to join Chelsea after talks with Zenit St Petersburg playmaker Andrei Arshavin hit financial stumbling blocks. (Daily Star)

CSKA Moscow striker Vagner Love, who is rated at £12m, has revealed that Everton are leading the race to sign him - but insists that he still wants to join Real Madrid. (Daily Star)

Blackburn players will be hoping new boss Sam Allardyce does not get hold of the dressing room stereo system - when a player at Sunderland he used to cause groans of disgust among team-mates by playing Barry Manilow cassettes on the team bus. (Daily Express)

Vagner Love is good. He could end up another Jo though. Who Everton wanted to loan anyway. Hmmm...

Chelsea hit financial stumbling blocks with Zenit SP. Now ive heard EVERYTHING. :lol:

Vagner Love is a top player one that Im surprised City havent tried ot get

mmmm....Just puting it out there..but if I were Arsene Wenger right now I would sell RVP and buy Vagner Love. We could make a good profit out of it as well.

RVP is grossly under-rated. Hes so dangerous when he gets the ball. He's like Ronaldo was last year. Its just RVP hasnt gotten on the pitch enough to show everyone. He can rip you apart though. Best left foot in the game. Next to Riera. :P

Thats stupid, Van Persie is awesome. Vagner Love isn't that good.
When Van Persie is on fire top5 strikers in the worldm aybe

When he's firing, he's unstoppable, when he's not, he is the biggest dickhead. So i'm not sure to be honest

On os many levels, NO. RVP is a tops striker, on his day, he's one of the most dangerous in the world.

Roman's two favourite toys are getting into it with eachother:lol:

Vagner Love isn't bad, but he's not that good. If you want a CSKA player, you want Carvalho.

I say "fair enough". The fact that RVP could end up like Harry Kewell is a possibility, and as you guys have said " He has a dangerous left-foot" then they could make some serious bucks. Vagner Love would be worth no more than 15 million pounds, but personally i think the amounts they would make were similar, resulting in no profit for Arsenal. Van Persie is a better player, he can snatch the game out of your hands. Vagner Love is just a good finish, he is used to things being set-up for him, while RVP can create play himself. However the point is, RVP could have an injury effected career, while Vagner Love despite being, a less valuable player, could be a longer sever at the club and avoid injury. Personally, i don't think Arsenal will sell.
Cheers

I would have said 12mil for a player unproven in the 'big leagues' such as Vagner Love would have been asking a little much to be perfectly honest. Van Persie would be worth circa 15-20mil and he's the kind of player that IS proven in the top flights in England and Holland and we all know just how good he can be on his day. Vagner Love, while being a class player isn't of that standard. Not to mention Love always had fucking shit haircuts. Mind you, what does RVP's WAG look like?? Does he even have one?? Coz Vagner Love's is mint.

RVP's married I think. Search Bouchra Van Persie. Shes not bad at all.

Yeh, she's Muslim, as a result he himself converted. He also has a 2 year old kid. Pretty good for 25 i'd say :-k

RVP is a muslim?? I know Anelka is. RVP doesnt seem like one. He doesnt seem peaceful enough.

That's a generalisation. I'm not particularly fond of Islam and you find the odd person calm and the odd a nut-case, like any religion. Ribery is muslim and his a nut-case. I found a list of all muslim players the other day, you want it?
Cheers.

RVPS a muslim?! Wow. Fully didnt see that.

Back to transfers...

LOL

afro in relation to Loves WAG were you reffering to the porn star he made the video with? I remember her last name is Butt because it said in 442 "lets hope nothing is spawned from this un holy union as we fear for the extended name of any possible love child" little Johnny Butt-Love has a nice ring to it.
Some other muslim players I can think of is Zlatan, PSV's Affelay, Boulahrouz and Zidane used to be no one knows if he still is and I'm not sure about Gallas and Henry I also wouldnt be surprised ifNasri was seeing as he is Algerian and Samir is a muslim name

Funny thing about Zlatan is his Dad is Muslim and his Mum is Catholic. So their is still doubts as to what religion he is. Djibril Cisse was a muslim, but he converted. That;s all of em i think....

They all seem obvious when written there because of their obvious Muslim names

I sincerely doubt that's all the muslim footballers there are. The Socheaux Winger is a musilm too.

I'd say thats obvious, when i said all i wasn't looking at the smaller clubs. Anyways back to transfers... how long do you think it will be before Lavezzi leaves Napoli. The guys pretty good, and i think the only reason his staying at the club is to try and achieve the same things as Maradona. Chelsea were every keen, but the asking price was fucking ridiculous.

When Lavezzi's wage is to much for Napoli they'll sell him, IMO he's better off playing full games for Napoli then starting on the bench and occasional starts with Chelsea, cause Drogba and Anelka would both be before him

Unless Drogba goes to Inter...

Drogba's poor from could see him go out of favor, and their is also the possibility of a transfer as JT said even if he is 30.
