Thanks: Gave 524, Got 1,412 | Football Transfers / News - 2009/10 Season
If mod objects please close, but the social groups are dead
granted the season is over, not one word (expect by me) about the recent England games we had were talked about in Social groups, says a lot.
- So biggest deal in history is Ronny to Real Madrid.
- Liverpool are closing in on Glen Johnson from Pomey, expecting a medical i read.
- Barry has gone to Man City for the right reasons, money
- Tevez is going somewhere, or not, but he cant make his mind up.
I think its going to be an interesting season, with Ronny and Tevez gone/going, Manu may not be as strong, Liverpool have less to spend, so they say. Man City have a lot to spend. So will it be the usual top 4 again this season?

- Valencia to Man Utd
- Looks like Barcalona are trying to hijack Real's bid for David Villa

Arsenal have apparently all but signed Ajax captain and centre half, Thomas Vermaelen. We've also got some 15 yr old, but that's hardly news at the Arsenal! Quote: |

| Yes. In fact I'm convinced you won't see a change in the top four for at least another 3 years.

i'm surprised at how quiet city are bing as well, i thought they would be going gung ho from the minute the season closed.
liverpool and arsenal should be very interesting, both trying to clsoe gaps but of a different nature...if villa strengthen arsenal will not want to be fighting them for a CL palce again...bit i can't imagine the gunners will be happy with 4th anyway..they'll want higher..

From an LFC point of view - Johnson is a good player but £18m sounds a lot, especially when you consider he was valued at £8m at the start of the year!
Rafa must be confident of keeping Alonso and Mascherano is he is prepared to splash what would seem to be the majority of his transfer budget on an £18m defender

Johnson, £18m, hilarious. It's these sort of fee's that makes Wenger shy away from such transfers and players. He's a good player, but is worth about £10~13m, max.
As for Tevez to Liverpool, I think there's more chance of Ferguson getting down to a bit of flamenco with Benitez than selling him one of the fan's most popular players!

Ferguson has no choice as Man U don't own Tevez. They may have first option on him but that's it. Tevez can go where he likes. Agree with you re: Johnson, £18m is way too much

I understand they don't own him but Ferguson would never let a player like that go to a team which just finished 4 points off his own. You could see him keeping him for now just to rebuke it and then letting him go in January to a foreign club..well that's my gut feeling anyway
It seems Madrid are after our right back now! So that's our manager, left back, right back (and if they had their way) central midfielder they'd all like to have!

With regards £18 million for Johnson maybe that's the new £10 million price since the Ronaldo & Kaka Transfers. Used to be 30 million would buy you world class, now that figures has seemingly doubled. Don't get me wrong a lot of money though for a defender who's only recently in my eyes shown real promise.

It certainly is warming up to be a very interesting close season |

Hull City look like having Marlon Harewood and Fraizer Campbell as their two up front next season...could be worse I guess.

From everything thats coming out...especially from Tevez camp...he wont be at utd next season...irrespective of how much fergie wants to prevent him from going to one of his rivals...that actually seems to be more of a motivation for him to move...
My gut feeling is that he'll be at stamford bridge next season...Champions League and loads more money then at Liverpool...
