Who in their right mind would even write an article like that? Like, who do you expect is going to actually believe that drivel?!

Where does Jordi Alba coming in at LB leave Barca with Abidal and Adriano?

Isn't Abidal probably going to retire anyway? And as for Adriano it'll leave him where he should be, 2nd choice.

Liverpool are ready to make a move to sign Ivorian striker Lacina Traore, 22, from Russian club Kuban Krasnodar – Full story: footylatest.com

Wasn't Jovetic's asking price set up above 30m last week?

And Lacina Traore is useless.

I'd like us to sign Traore.

He wouldn't fit the team. He's almost exactly the same as Carroll.

the vertongen clause seems strange as he has said he is willing to play a final year and go on the free and hence not get the payment so can't he choose not to get than money

Fulham signed Mladen Petric - Happy, a type of striker we need, and the goal he scored against us 3 or 2 years back was just amazing.

Petric is quality, he should do alright.

Anyone else heard anything about AVB going to Spurs? Came across it googling, not sure whether its legit. Then also read that if Modric goes, Spurs will go after Joao Moutinho. Now, if both of the above occur - I may well become a Spurs supporter :lol:

Just checking out the speculation on SkySports:
- someone want to check for bullshit?

That all seems pretty straight forward to me. I would laugh if Moses ended up at Liverpool though.

I thought Lavezzi had already signed at PSG though.

Na, hasn't been completed yet. According to his agent just a few minor things for the clubs to discuss but should be done early this week.

Miss out on Sigurdsson and De Jong...go for Victor Moses...yeah, that sounds fucking typical of Liverpool. Fuck.

:lol: @ Liverpool rumors

I actually rate Victor Moses.

He sounds more like some kind of pre-biblical lawnmower than a footballer. Do not want.

I can think of a list a mile long of players who would be better for the club than Victor Moses.

Hoilett is without a club...amazed he hasn't found a new one yet.

For some reason Liverpool are being strongly linked to Hugo Lloris. Scratching my head over that one.

We were linked with him yesterday as well, got a good laugh out of that one.

:lol: Juve apparently bid 8m for RvP. Surely that's a joke right?

That's absurd. He's worth at least 10 pound more than that.

I'm not a fan of West Ham, but that's just cruel.

Meanwhile... We've signed Carlos Cuellar. I'm happy.

Solid signing for Sunderland there.

McCartney to West Ham confirmed, 2 year deal. Oh Big Sam

Spurs have beaten Liverpool in the race to sign Sigurdsson.

Because I needed more reasons to hate either of those parties. :lol:
