haha, will certainly be a drastic change from audax italiano and U-20 argies.

milan are apparently chasing fabregas...

 

[Roy9]

Di Santo will learn a lot when he partners up with Chris Samba

 

[Izzay]

Jack Wilshere to Arsenal; £40 million

Oh wait... He's already ours

 

[Groucho Marxist]

xabi alonso to real madrid sometime this week. €32 million + €3m in incentives.

official. disaster for liverpool.

 

[Charizard]

Lets all lol at Liverpool.

Always finding a way to lose the league.

I'm surprised Torres isn't trying to jump ship from the sinking ship, but i guess the only team who could afford him would be Real, who he would never play for.

 

[whatashotbyseve]

There goes any hope of Liverpool winning the title. I don't care what people think about Torres and Gerrard, Alonso was the one indispensable member of the team. Utd's title by default it is then, Ronaldo or no Ronaldo.

 

[Charizard]

This is Chelsea's chance.

Perfect opportunity to take the league, or fuck up and waste another 2-3 years rebuilding due to an ageing squad.

 

[whatashotbyseve]

Don't rate Ancelotti as a manager. And Joe Cole should be starting, but his insistence to play a diamond formation ruins that. Those are my two big black marks against them. Should be finishing 2nd though.

Injuries haven't helped him. And anyway, who's to know whether Ance will play him or not yet?

United or Chelsea. Will be close again. Unless Liverpool had the ball in their court the whole time and were just waiting for the money to get other players in.

 

[Numero Uno]

If berbatovs starting most games this season... then chelsea will win the league ..

no reading to score 4 goals against anymore

 

[Groucho Marxist]

aquilani to liverpool (think this is confirmed)

bent to sunderland (official)

huntelaar to milan (rumoured)

 

[Izzay]

Drogba resigning for a further two years as opposed to moving abroad is probably the best bit of business Chelsea will do all summer

 

[emiliieee]

meh. Alonso is gone from Liverpool to Real

 

[whatashotbyseve]

meh. Alonso is gone from Liverpool to Real

Really? I not heard of this one.

 

[emiliieee]

Really? I not heard of this one.

really? it's everywhere. he got paid like 30m pounds - that's 60m in AUD

he's got like 20 something days left until he actually goes to Real. i think

check out the bbc site. the alonso transfer news is on there.

Lol I was joking. Everyone who cares about football knows about that transfer unless you have been living under a rock.

But seriously, why didn't he do a swap deal with Real Madrid, for two of Robben/Van der Vaart/Huntelaar? All three are known to be unhappy at Madrid and their game time will be further limited by this summers signings. Huntelaar in particular is an absolute gun. Instead he buys a player whose is blantantly inferior to Alonso at a ridiculously inflated price. He would have been better off changing formations and getting in the players I mentioned.

 

[louy]

Alonso is a gread player with vision. Great addition for Real.

 

[newmz89]

Robben is always injured thats why, although I wish he was back at Chelsea. He was so awesome.

 

[Roy9]

Robben would be 1000 times better if he knew how to pass the damn ball.

Anyway, Huntelaar may be off to Milan. All they need now is a new defensive line and midfield.
