Well it's not like they don't have a hundred midfielders they could easily go on without.

Hearing rumours that Jenas will be going,probably Keane and Palacios as well.Is there anyone else Spurs can offload?

True. But they'll not raise much money from many of them. Bentley? Jenas? Dos Santos? Keane? Who'll pick them up for a decent price? Maybe they'll be alright, but the reports this morning were that Bale would go if Modric goes.

They should just sell Bale, the most overrated player in premier league, while anyone are still dumb enough to throw a huge amount of money at him. Just please don't let it be Chelsea who are dumb enough to buy him.

found this gif of gio's chipped goal after perusing numerious soccer sites/forums.

if i had photoshop skills i'd put the White Men Cant Jump movie logo on that gif lol

Dat camera flash. Golazo.

 

[Fady K]

Late in saying this but, congrats to Mexico! Coming back from 0-2 to 4-2 is very impressive.

So according to the News of the World Chelsea are willing to bid 36m for Sanchez.Does anyone else think this is the most ridiculous transfer saga in ages?And in the end he'll still wind up at Barca,who I might add have bid the lowest amount for him.

Yeah as much as the muppet in me loves these transfer times, this has gone on for way too long now. Deal needs to be made fast.

 

[K1LLER7]

Another winger, a creative midfielder and a proper centre-back. I'm pretty sure the club is making those three positions its priority in the next two transfer markets.

I agree here but didn't micah richards play there before? city could put a cheeky bid in for ramos. either can play in the centre.

Reports that Bayern want Nani and Berbatov. could see berba moving on.

English media-bullshit. We're looking for a CB (or two) and maybe a MF (Vidal) but that's it.

 

[Ushojax]

He messed up for sure and his drinking ways are being exaggerated after those famous pics of him being dead drunk in that car. That doesn't mean you can't give him more chances.

Give him chances at whose expense? Lennon's? Van Der Vaarts? It's best for both parties that he move on, he has had enough chances. I'd rather we got decent money for him and bought somebody else.

True. But they'll not raise much money from many of them. Bentley? Jenas? Dos Santos? Keane? Who'll pick them up for a decent price? Maybe they'll be alright, but the reports this morning were that Bale would go if Modric goes.

They'll all go for £5m minimum, more in the case of GDS, Kranjcar and Palacios (at least £12m being mentioned). If we can shift them all we should have £40m plus in the bank.

Those 'reports' this morning were a load of bollocks, no quotes, no nothing. Don't get me wrong, I think if Modric were sold then all the big players would want out, but the papers are just shit stirring as always.

Germany v Canada, Women's World Cup

The game isn't half bad! I've seem some decent technical displays, and Germany is a very well organized team. Canada's 2 unfortunate defensive plays are all that separate the two sides.

Yes, it's getting a little out of control. I mean, I know the window isn't officially open yet, but whoever is advising him is running their mouth far too much.

 

[Heart Attack]

anyone know at what time is the River Plate vs Belgrado match? I hope River is relegated and shit (fights) start to break out

2-1 FT

bend it like christine sinclair! what a free kick goal! world class!

first time a team scored vs germany in ages!

if only canada had another player in sinclair's level

canada shoulld beat france and nigeria to move on

 

[Kenka]

Jesus this World Cup game, stadium was full as fuck and the atmosphere itself alone should have brought the Cana on their knees.

Awesome curled kick from Sinclair indeed though. Canada-France will be very interesting.

 

[WrikaWrek]

So why did Man Utd need Ashley Young?

And people said i was crazy about saying Nani should bail out. His place in the team getting smaller.

Fuck no, I'd rage beyond limits. And French Canadians >>>>>>>>>>> Regular Frenchies.

 

[Lonely1]

Early goal for River. Just what they needed.

i almost didn't watch canada vs germany after that france vs nigeria borefest

glad i did watch canada vs germany

germany should have been up by more goals but missed their chances, germany is by far and away better than everyone else here

that german sub ... forgot her name ... 20 year old stirker ... she's destined to be a great striker

You mean Bajramaj ? She supposedly is a female Cristiano Ronaldo, with the same kind of behaviour off the pitch that means.

£5m minimum? We're talking about the same Jenas and Bentley right? Kranjar cost you pennies and has been severely mistreated by the club, I'm not sure what his situation would be but if you get good money for him you've been extremely fortunate. Palacios is a good player though, I expect you to get some money for him but I think your estimate for £40m is extremely generous for those players.

 

[Lonely1]

Clear PK for River not called.

 

[Error]

Grondona's FU to Passarella.

 

[Lonely1]

I don't know if Belgrano can hold much longer. But they do have the referee on their side.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Oh wow

 

[El Tigre]

Horrible penalty!

 

[clemenx]

Lololol River. I wouldn't want to be Pavone right now.

she fucks lots of supermodels and is a great person by all accounts?

lololol River's about to get relegated? will there be a pitch storm or something after the game?

thats the only reason i'm watching the game. Besides i hate River

the clock is still running. did they just call the game over?

Agreed.

I was impressed with Canada though. They are developing into a 'team', and without those 2 mistakes the game would have been very different. Ze Germans just looked like they're better drilled and better coached. I didn't see very many moments in which a German player looked flustered.

 

[Regulus Tera]

lol RiBer Plate

Seriously? Bassong, Hutton, Jenas, Bentley, Palacios, Dos Santos, Kranjcar, O'Hara (already gone), Keane. I'd say Palacios, Dos Santos and Kranjcar are worth about 10 each, the rest 4 to 6. Not that hard to imagine getting 40m for 9 players.

 

[elseanio]

What's happened in Argentina? Have they suspended the game? Called off completely?

How long do they have left on their contracts?

Are all of them confirmed exits? I think losing Hutton and Bassong would be a mistake - you're not exactly blessed with defenders.

I'm not sure you'd get 10 for Dos Santos or Kranjcar either - well, maybe in this ridiculous market place - but I hope you get nothing for Kranjcar after Harry got him for £2m and completely wasted his talent. Palacious could be 10 though, certainly.

But Jenas, Bentley, Keane? I'm not sure you'd get good money for them - especially considering they can only move downwards from Spurs and, while I'm not sure what their wages are, you'd need someone to meet them.

I do hope Spurs strengthen though - despite being London rivals. They play such great football and there's a lot of deadwood at the club that you could do with losing. Oh and sell Modric to us please. Thanks.

 

[rodvik]

Holy shit! They are down?

 

[elseanio]

Thanks, my text updates said it was suspended for some reason.

 

[Judderman]

Holy shit! They are down?

Yep, and there are riots near the stadium. Here's a live stream.

And another.

 

[Allan Holdsworth]

RiBer!

It's crazy around the stadium (and some places inside).

 

[Vivalaraza]

Graham Hunter is tweeting that Arsenal have joined the race to sign Mata.

 

[MarshMellow96]

Arsenal.. Always sticking their noses in other people's Matas...
