somehow i dont see these happening, especially if they go down...

Bent and Greening would be good for Sunderland and Dunne should get out of city while the going's good tbh.

That talk has only been going around for the last decade or so...

Tahnk fuck, a level head running the show who actually knows how to win a title??? Joy.

I fucking wish. 10mil + Lucas <> Veloso = DONE fucking DEAL.

the lad's got some tallent. And looks like he's about 12. Perfect fit for Arsenal.

[SIZE=6]Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez will increase the acrimony with Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson by trying to sign Carlos Tevez, whose loan at Old Trafford ends at the end of the season. (The Times) Full story[/SIZE]

If I hadn't suggested the idea myself a few days ago I'm sure I would have peed myself just a little out of excitement at reading that.

Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho wants to go back to his former club Chelsea in order to sign midfielder Deco. (Daily Mirror)

Celtic goalkeeper Artur Boruc could become a £7 million target for German club Bayern Munich. (Daily Record) Full story

Liverpool boss Benitez says Manchester United boss Ferguson "can see that we are the better side" as he insisted he would continue to stand up to his rival manager. (Various)

This rumour is all over the english newspapers, will Tevez work well at Liverpool ? I still think our main priority is a winger followed by another striker ie. silva, villa

:lol: :lol: I said to myself 'I bet 50bucks that the words Villa and/or Silva will be involved in this post.

Tevez was always supposed to go to Liverpool. Join up with Masch. I think he would almost complete us. This first entered my mind a few days ago also. Lets hope.

Who exactly pays out on your bet?

Yeah, I think I said something about it a few days ago. At least we're on the same page with that:lol:
I'd love to see him at anfield, Masch and Tevez play so well together and know eachother's game Put them together with Torres and Gerrard and we're looking damn good. There's only two problems, one of which is that Tevez coming so deep could see Gerrard shifted to the right wing, and the other being, how do we get together the necessary 22mil that's being touted as his fee? And don't we need a brilliant right winger too?

If he lost, would he owe himself $50?

Broken record really

Afro, if the price is only 22 mil now I reckon we will definately sign him, Tevez first choice would be to stay at United but if it looks like he wont play regularly I think he might look else whare. I highly doubt it would be to Liverpool, he is a United fan and he reaaly does love the club, it would be simmilar to Torres joining United. Fergie is coming out in the press now saying that Tevez is his number one target and that he is such a valuable member of the squad etc. It is also interesting to note that whilst he might not have as many starts and appearances he has actualy played more minutes than any of our other forwards

Will hte Untied board really be willing to fork over 22mil for a bench player? He says now that he wants to leave, he has played with all the passion for the shirt that you'd expect of Mario Jardel in the last couple of games and I really think the best thing for both him an United is for him to leave and for Macheda to step into a more pivotal role in the side.
The thing is, Torres nearly DID join united. They approached Atletico a matter of hours before Torres got on the plane to anfield. The only reason Fergie is saying what he's saying is because it would be easier for him to keep Tevez and bench him than have to go shopping for a replacement.

:lol:This one deserved its own special quote...
Berbatov: 25 (2) games, 2208 mins. av: 81.7 mins. 8 goals, so a goal every 276 mins.
Rooney: 21 (4) games, 1893 mins. av: 75.2 mins. 10 goals, a goal every 189.3 mins.
Tevez: 16 (8) games, 1607 mins. av: 66.95 mins. 3 goals, a goal every 535 mins.
The only guys who have played less are Macheda and Welbeck, 48 and 34mins respectively. With goals every 24 and 34 mins.
Just a little out with that claim, Fred.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted for the first time that Argentine striker Carlos Tevez could leave Old Trafford in the summer. (Various)

The Blues are willing to listen to offers for striker Nicolas Anelka at the end of the season and hope to recoup most of the £15m they spent to sign him from Bolton. (Times)

Middlesbrough will sell Stewart Downing in the summer, with Liverpool the favourites to beat off competition from Tottenham to land the £10m-rated England winger. (Daily Mail)

Manchester City boss Mark Hughes was involved in a training-ground bust-up with defender Micah Richards on Friday. (Various)

Sunderland manager Ricky Sbragia admits he could face the sack even if he keeps the Wearside club in the Premier League. (Various)

They should be able to get more than that now tbh. He's worth cicra 20mil.

Why do we need another left winger when we've got Babel, Reira, Dossena and Aurelio who can play there?

Dont need Downing. He hasnt scored a goal all season. Hes worth more than 7.5m but I wouldnt be prepared to pay any more than that considering he almost HAS to go. And we dont really need him anymore anyway.

I dont get why you'd want to sell Anelka. Fuck it. Ill have him! Again..

Well I just grabbed that claim from an article where SAF said it so.....
Tevez hasnt actualy said he wants to go what many people dont realize is the claims that have sparked this recent debate is only a rumour, it is rumoured he said them there hasnt yet been any proof (that Im aware of) when the earlier articles came out during the week they all said it was rumoured he made those comments to an Argentine radio program and he didnt say he wanted to leave he said he would love to stay but if he feels he wont be guarenteed game time he will go in search else where saying that he had offers from not just Spain. I think United will easuily cough up the dosh for him as before the season started Gill and Fergie said that signing Tevez was their main perrogative and the price was higher then

Given that boro haven't scored that many goals all up this season, that's not such a big concern.

If they don't want him, we'll take him. But they wouldn't sell him to us. I don't know why they'd want to sell him either.

:shock: SAF was wrong about something. Could this be the end of all days?

They hadn't spent 30mil on Berbatov back then.

There's the evidence you were talking about.

:-s If he is sold then it will prove that our club is run by madmen.

What, the fact that he's a crazy russian oil billionaire didn't tip you off to that?

If SAF was wrong youd have more chance of him coneding it then you would, some of the bullshit you spin to get yourself out of situations here is incredible.
In all competitions Tevez has only actualy made one less appearance than Rooney and I would take the word of the coach, the one who actualy does the tactics, the one who would know how much gametime his players have had rather than yor word/wikipedia or whatever source you used.

EDIT The anger I have felt at you has been relieved somewhat with the discovery of your location being on the back of a flying turtle as I myself am a big fan of flying turtles

Edited by fredsta: 26/4/2009 12:08:24 PM

Tevez: 24 league, 9 cup, 7 ECL. Total; 40.
Rooney: 25 league, 3 cup, 10 ECL. Total; 38.
So actually, Tevez has played in two MORE games. But in the league, despite only playing in one less game he has played almost 300mins less than Rooney.

Source. Ignore the fact that it says "liverpool" there, all data is from "the touchline", which is a paid subscription statistics service, so heads would roll if they were wrong. And do you seriously believe that SAF walks into a press conference with all those state pre-prepared on a piece of paper infront of him?

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is back in the hunt for Lyon's French striker Karim Benzema after being priced out of a move last summer. (Daily Mirror)

Would certainly mean Tevez is going

Newcastle manager Alan Shearer says his side's match with Portsmouth is the biggest game of his football career as he targets one of the three wins he believes will save the Magpies from relegation. (Various)

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has rejected an ambitious bid from Bayern Munich to recruit him as their new manager. (Daily Mail)

Liverpool defender Sami Hyypia is set to reject the chance to join the club's coaching staff because he wants to prolong his playing career. (Daily Mirror)

Southampton will go out of business in eight days unless they find a buyer. (Various)

Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink has revealed that he regularly plays out matches in his head to test out players and tactics and that he has never lost such a mental match. He has gone over his side's Champions League semi-final with Barcelona twice in his mind already. (Various)

Hiddink probably lies down in bed having 90 minute tactical fits. "Its alright Guus, it was only a tactical nightmare.."

dont be ridiculous fergie. weve got a perfect forward line and by doing this you pushing away one of the best players in the world. we need to invest in our defence, our attack is as good as it gets.

Benzema would be an absolute star but Tevez is way preferable, such passion, energy and class dont come by each day, having said that if Tevez left i would be more than happy for Benzema to join the club

it just means that either him or berba will become a bench player. so i dont see the point in signing him. we have enough as it is, plus manucho is still to come back from his loan,we got wellbeck, campbell and macheda

Edited by zimbos_05: 27/4/2009 07:17:44 PM

Manucho is shit. He'll never play again for manc.

:?He played for them to begin with? :?:lol:

Benzema should leave Untied be. They'll just sign him on loan and then play Berbatov ahead of him all season until he's pissed off... [cue: Shitty Keane retort ]

All I can say is ":lol:". Shearer is going to pick up a third of Newcastle's season wins in four weeks? :lol: Gluck to him with that...

:lol:

Sounds like the kind of sketch Special 1 TV would do.
