Southampton signing a top central winger there.


Stephen Kelly to Crystal Palace. Very surprised, thought he would be able to get a better club. Likewise Jack Cork who I heard was likely to go to Palace.


Sunderland signing another Newcastle fan in Will Buckley. THEY'RE OBSESSED.

Stephen Kelly hasn't moved in a while. I think I completely forgot he existed until this very moment

Do Hull or Burnley not need a 3rd choice RB?

Cutting the English players aswell. Is that the only reason they signed Lampard? To fill the quote for the champs league?

Didn't they only receive around half the Costa money due to 3rd party and clause. That along with Luis would be enough for Griezmann

Those three don't even make a minor dent in a debt of over half a billion Euro.

If Barcelona and Madrid can get away with being in shit creek financially for the past decade and still spend £75m on one player I'm sure Atleti can be fine with signing Griezmann.

Jim White reckons we're signing Benetia.

Now I know his reputation is deservedly awful because hes such a goon on SSN but looking at his twitter timeline he's been spot on about absolutely everything he's said. It's crazy actually.

Good.

I've no problem with bargain signings when they come up but if the club is going to endlessly bleat about having money to spend and being able to attract big name players they should put their money where their mouth is. We've missed out on too many players by refusing to stye up the cash over the years.

Sky people seem to be pretty accurate on Twitter.

Arsene Wenger is close to securing a deal for the Greece international, who has also attracted interest from Juventus this summer

Olympiakos centre-back Kostas Manolas is undergoing a medical at Arsenal ahead of a move to the Gunners, Goal understands.

Manolas has attracted interest from Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger, who is targeting a central defensive signing before the transfer window closes following the sale of Thomas Vermaelen to Barcelona.

As reported by Goal, the Gunners opened talks with Olympiakos over a move for the defender earlier in August.

Arsenal are understood to have been quoted a transfer fee of £8 million for the centre-back.

Manolas is also wanted by Juventus, but the north London side appear to have moved ahead of the Italian club in the race to sign the Greece international.

Wenger confirmed earlier this month that Arsenal were in the market for a centre-back despite the £16m signing of Calum Chambers, who featured alongside Laurent Koscielny in the absence of Per Mertesacker in the 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace.

“Vermaelen behaved outstandingly last year - I am grateful for him and I wish him very well,” Wenger said.

“If I can find another centre-back I will do it."

Mertesacker, meanwhile, has signed a new long term contract at Arsenal.

Best centre back in the world last season.

FWIW, Bild are saying he'll join Bayern, and Roma have been pretty adamant the last two weeks or so that he is staying.

It's getting a bit depressing.

Rojo will stay, Benatia will go to Bayern and Vidal will get a new deal at Juventus.

'getting?'

I kinda think we'll get him still, just a bit of humility and respect for the sake of Sportings fans and then sold.

Also think we'll get Benatia but not sure why, just don't think Bayern are really in for him.

Quotes are coming out exactly along these lines:

@SherifMUFC @sport_witness I thank Sporting and everyone who works at the club.

Is the interview at half 9?

Despite being confident about Vidal for ages, now it seems the longer it goes on the more likely it won't happen. Then again, he had the chance yesterday, again, to commit to Juve and didn't.

EDIT: Ah:

I'm starting to wonder what a player would have to do for us to sign him.

Vidal refused to commit to his future all summer, not enough. Rojo, handed in a transfer request and went on strike, not enough. Benatia had the right idea about getting on a plane before the clubs had agreed a deal, but I really hope that him or Di Maria can do a really convincing impression of Edward Woodwards signature and also have experience experience in multi-million pound bureaucracy; we'd still fuck up the deal.
