The offer is in Euro's, not GBP (thank god)
Seydou Keita to Barcelona seems like a done deal. Meanwhile Giovani Dos Santos may play a role in the Florent Malouda interest.
I want to analyze my team but It all depends on this Cristiano Ronaldo mess. If he wants to join up, cool. If he doesnt, fine by me. Personally, I just wantdecisions (by clubs/player) to be made quickly so we (RM) can focus on other targets.
dont tell anyone.. I'd prefer Kaka'

The main rumour i've read today in the paper.
Ronaldinho to Man City
"Ronaldinho's brother - who also acts as his agent - flew into Thailand for talks with Manchester City last night. He asked for a personal audiencewith City's powerful owner Thaksin Shinawatra to gauge the interest in the Barcelona playmaker."

Anelka has to be the ultimate Premier League journey man. He is on the move constantly, he must be so rich from all the transfer fees.
I hope Jose comes back to anyone in the PL, the guy is pure comedy.
Ronaldinho commanding 200K (GBP) from Manc City, you aint worth anything close to that any more. I'm not even sure have big of a draw his name is noweither.

Anelka was complaining in L'Equippe, I think, that when he signed that he was gonna play up front in a 4-4-2, and he doesn't like playing on thewing in the 4-3-3 especially when he's proven himself down the middle.
Jose would never go back, I think its more likely that he'll be in Italy and have the core of Chelsea who are still loyal to him join him

Although I hate Chel$ea, sacking Grant was unwarranted. He led the team to a better record in the second half of the season than Mourinho in the 1st half. Healso led the team to the UCL finals with arguably a weaker team and Chel$ea were a more attractive side to watch under Grant.
Nasri + Fabregas = It's a wrap for the Premiership. Then we can sell them each for 30 million pounds in a couple of years

Grant should've gotten another year, but maybe they'll bring Mancini or Rijkaard.
Please please, take away Anelka. Now I know why they called him Le Sulk. Too much drama. Let's get Robinho and call it a day.

Last I checked, the transfer fees go to the club not the player. Anyway, I have no idea why Anelka is being wooed by so many clubs. He's been nothingbut a bum recently.

No you get a percentage of the transfer fees.
