Aaron Lennon will be joining Inter Milan as AVB brings in Willian.

He has been sulking since a move from Inter was quashed last season, and has been trying to orchestrate the move in this window.

A good player with electrifying speed, and yet fails to take on players anymore, wastes countless crosses, fails to make space anymore, has become a sideways backwards effect, and looks to lack passion and desire.

I am happy if Inter Milan want to pay £20m for a player drastically over rated.

Where are you getting these rumours from, I have heard no mention of this anywhere!

or are you just making them up because you want them to be true?

Lennon was one of our best players last season!

Agree0 Disagree0

20m for Lennon . take it, doubt its true just that valuation of Lennon makes we question this rumor.

Agree0 Disagree0

I don't think Lennon will be sold as we only have 8 Home grown players left once Bale is sold.

The Rabbit

Agree0 Disagree0

Starting to believe me now Willian has passed his medical?

Agree0 Disagree0

Rabbit please try to at least be accurate with your response. The English player within the squad are;

1. Walker
2. Naughton
3. Dawson
4. Bale
5. Rose
6. Fryers
7. Lennon
8. Defoe
9. Townsend
10. Carroll

I think we all agree Bale is gone, so we would still have the 8 required if Lennon left, and players like Coulthirst, Kane, Livermore all available to be promoted to the squad proper.

Even ED must have laughed at my post as he put it in banter, but the last laugh will be with me as Willian signs and Lennon joins Inter Milan. {Ed008's Note -

Has anyone else not thought about a cheeky bid for Ben Arfa? If you can keep him fit he's a fantastic player, tricky, good dribbler with magic feet. Scores a few goals as well. Would help to unlock a few defences for us. Not sure what it would cost to get him tho

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Just watching him thinking the same thing.

Agree0 Disagree0

I have, and if he stays fit he is streets ahead of anything else in the bottom half the premier league, but its a big if!

Just want to say goodbye and good luck to Scott Parker, a fantastic professional and a good servant for our club. I know he wasn't everybodies cup of tea and he certainly wasn't the quickest or most talented, but he always gave 100% and was a solid reliable player, he will do very well for fulham. Goodbye and Thanks.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Agreed.
good luck! and thanks.

Agree0 Disagree0

I am going to miss him running round in circles, I having nothing to bet on now with my mate when watching the team. just have to bet on the Fulham game.

Agree0 Disagree0

Should have come to us a season earlier
was great at first but spent most of last season coming back to take the ball off the centre backs. Good luck Scotty

Agree0 Disagree0

Apparently he tried to be first in creating crop circles on a football pitch but kept on getting caught.

Just tried to find which channel our Europa game is on this Thursday. Anyone know because I'm struggling to find it. {Ed008's Note - ITV 4 or ESPN?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

ITV4 is swansea and nothing on ESPN.

Agree0 Disagree0

I maybe wrong McYid but it doesn't look like it's on TV mate.

Thats only at a quick glance I might add. Someone may tell you different.

Agree0 Disagree0

Yup.

Confirmed, it's not being televised live in the UK.

Agree0 Disagree0

That sucks. Probably because neither ITV or ESPN wanted to travel to Georgia haha

Agree0 Disagree0

Www.vipbox.net :) free to watch just make sure you pick the game in English as you will have several options lol

Lots of reports linking us with willian.

As much as I think he would be a great aquisition I feel his price is far too high.

Would prefer us to spend wisely on erikson and Coentrao for less money

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Totally agree. we could get both them players for the price of willian.

even though rose played well on sunday I wouldn't like to be relying on him for a full season. I think he will be a good player for us in time.

think we need a player like eriksen to unlock tough defenses, as much tougher teams lay ahead.

I'm really not sure about Willian but maybe that's just me. He obviously has talent but i'm not sure he has the talent, further potential or value of Eriksen. I know it's been said he wants a Champs League club but he also praised Spurs so, for £18m tops then maybe it could be done? Him and Coentrao for the same price as Willian really is no comparison.
Sig played the Bale-ish free role yesterday and he is quite decent. He's no Bale but I think he's strong, fairly skilful and has an eye for a goal so could be pretty good in that role against most sides as cover. I'm sure he'll end up sharing the left sided spot of the 4, 2, 3, 1 formation with Chadli if Bale leaves and we do make a Willian, Lamela or Eriksen type signing.

Reading reports that we are linked to a cut price bid for Falcao! haha come on that's just hilarious. Few years ago maybe. Yes AVB is a positive factor but against Chelsea, City and the other mega money oil rich clubs, it just won't happen. Willian, Eriksen and Contrao and that'll be just fine thank you Mr.Levy. with those signings, I wouldn't lose any sleep at losing Bale.

Falcao?

Dream on!

NO way can we afford his wages and he will want champions league football.

Plus if city or chelski want they will get him ahead of us like chelski got oscar ahead of us last

Monaco don't have Champions League (yet).
