Here's the link: http://niketalk.com/t/500446/the-english-premier-league-fantasy-soccer-thread-2012-2013


Let's keep this thread just about what happens on the pitch.




Transfer Speculation:

Manchester United fear Arsenal striker Robin Van Persie, 28, will cost £30m as Fergie battles rivals Man City and Juventus for the star forward.

Sir Alex Ferguson is considering an £8m bid for Everton defender Leighton Baines, after the Manchester United boss confirmed plans to bring in a new left-back this summer.

Manchester United must "pay a little more" to land Lucas Moura, as Sao Paulo confirm they have rejected a £29m offer for the 19-year-old midfielder.

Luka Modric missed Tottenham's final training session ahead of their tour of the United States amid continued speculation linking the 26-year-old midfielder with Real Madrid.

Galatasaray have revealed they are in talks with Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov, 31.

Fulham and West Ham are rivalling Newcastle in the chase for FC Twente's Brazilian defender Douglas, 24, and all three have submitted bids.

Newly-promoted Southampton will make another offer for PSV'S Netherlands international striker Jeremain Lens, 24, after failing with a £5m bid.

Norwich City have made an increased offer for Leeds captain Robert Snodgrass, 24, as they look to reunite the midfielder with Bradley Johnson and Jonny Howson.

Oscar spoke to Sky after the game saying he had a Chelsea medical, but has yet to put the pen to paper. Not sure if that's him trying to start a bidding war, or if it will just get done after the Olympics.
 
Oh man, Kagawa should have scored there!!!

 Defenders standing around.

EDIT 2 ~ Bebe equalize! But really, they should have done better with their earlier-opportunities.

That was a slick backheel by the Ajax player. Not a bad finish by Bebe either.

Smalling out 10 weeks, Evans already nicked up...United starting on the backline injuries early this year...
 
Barca and Afellay are eager to split ways, they're selling him for 8mil euros. Wenger needs to hope on that!
Ajax and Norwich both want to sign Ryo on loan. He was loan to Feyenoord in 2011. Another PL loan would be a lot better for him.

^Yea....which is why I said another PL loan would be good for him.

Sucks that United is having players injured already...

Which means Baines just moved to top priority.
 
I don't even want this Lucas kid spend on someone else like a RB and another midfielder like Rasmus Elm :evil:
 
MLS action anyone? Henry did what he usually does, but as an assist. Perfect pass. Perfect.







Oh and the Timbers are getting blown out again. 4-0 right now, 70th minute. Feels badman being worst team in the league :frown: Just a month until the EPL starts again.
 
now its going to give schellas the more reason to keep on benching Brek..

Brek has missed 75 practice session this season...smh..

Great win

:smokin

at ManU going to have to pay as much as RvP to get  Lucas Moura. Paulo trying to get every single dollar outta them
 
Ambitious QPR are ­making a £6m move for Celtic's South Korean midfield star Ki Sung-Yeung, 23

Sunderland boss Martin O'Neill is to raid former club Aston Villa for defensive duo Stephen Warnock, 30, and James Collins, 28.

Everton are on the brink of re-signing midfielder Steven Pienaar, 30, from Tottenham. :smokin

Barcelona forward Gerard Deulofeu, 18, is on the radar of both Liverpool and QPR.

Nicklas Bendtner is set to leave Arsenal this week, with the 24-year-old Danish striker a £7.5m target for both AC Milan and Galatasaray.

United have a key advantage in the fight to sign Van Persie as it emerged that the Dutchman would prefer moving to United rather than to rivals Manchester City or Juventus. :smokin :smokin :smokin
 
RVP is a great asset, but I wonder how he'll fit in with Rooney, Welbeck & Chicha? Surely Berba's out...?
 
:x Tachtsidis with a sick goal for Roma, this dude is gonna be a problem.

:x :x Lamela

Roma looks like they're gonna be wide open this year. If they were playing a decent Serie A side that could finish, this might be 4-4 right now.
