Hi eds,
I've read that Liverpool are looking at Ben Davies now do you know if this is true or if Spurs are any closer to a deal for him, also is there any interest in Konoplyanka from us either?
If this is true and pool do sign him in front of us, then Levy should take a hike now! Season after season we know who we need, then levy makes a silly offer, then he f***s them about, then they join someone else! Then he goes and spends £110 million on good players but not in the position we need most . It's becoming a joke, we are a becoming the most hated club when it comes to transfers . No one likes dealing with us, and would sell cheaper to another club rather than deal with Levy . With our squad we could realisticly cope apart from one position, that same position for at least the last three seasons, LEFT BLOODY BACK . can't anyone at the club see this? Is Rose, Levy's love child or something? Does Lewis really care about our club?
Patience is a virtue davo, but why the f*** are we always the last club to do business in the summer. Is there a sacred festival or something? Our opening bid for lukaku has been rejected by the way. Knowing levy it was something silly like 9 million and one pound.
Been patiently waiting for a LB FOR 3 years now!

Ben Davies is possible if Swansea honour the previously agreed £8m. Levy is trying to smooth over a dour swoop for Dabies and Vorm with Siggy the other way.
Konoplyanka is strangely not being chased with the vigour you would hope . West Ham of all clubs look placed to steal him under the noses of Liverpool and Spurs.
Well carry on patiently waiting my friend because Levy ain't buying no one. Even West Ham are moving ahead of us by the looks it is totally depressing all or rivals are snapping up the cream of the crop.
We need to start a campaign to get rid of Levy and Baldini.
The squad we have will be mid table at best, not enough cover not enough class players.
As for Vertongen, he is a petulant spoilt guy who is not interested At least Levy can do what he is good at ripping the backside of clubs like Barca.
Maybe he can negotiate Messi plus cash LOL

Which came first Liverpool offering 2m more for Davies and Swansea coming back to us and saying we have a better offer or did they just flat out say yes then renegade on the deal.
Two very different stories of the same situation.
Ed, its been said that Swansea want Naughton as part of the Davies deal, who do I contact to offer to drive him there?
Got to love it, just because a player gets rumoured to be wanted by a big club, we expect that player to come out and say no chance I am staying! Until a concrete offer has been placed then we should not worry (tongue in cheek) it's natural that our best players get courted by the bigger clubs. Is shows that we do actually have a few quality players!
Same old story though as usual and I am guilty of it also! We buy late into the window and then seem to complain that we missed this and that player when actually we were never in for them in the first place!
We spend quite well in the tsfr window wether we sell first or not and as you all agree it would be a blessing if we bought a top quality target early, I.e. Sanchez etc early but we don't and I can't see it happening any time soon. It's not the D.Levy way.
But I agree, let's GET BALDINI OUT NOW.
Is this all down to no CL? Because I don't get why we couldn't have done what the goons have done for the last couple of seasons. For example with the Gareth bale money we should have bought some top quality then, not a group of nobody's. (Or proven internationals to oracle) our policy is wrong. I agree with buying young but buy youngsters from the top clubs in the world that never give these youngsters a look in. People like morata would be more attractive signings in my opinion.
So if the Orcales past is anything to go by we will end up with Konoplyanka and not Davies or Vorm!!
I thought the double swoop on Swansea was for Davies and Bony, with Naughton going the other way not siggy. Anyone confirm this is the case?
Eds, can we have an update on the Swansea situation please.
We need baldini or another df because levy has tried to mug off every club we deal with and no one wants to deal with him. He thinks it makes him look like a hard nosed business man, but just makes him look like a bellend and tarnished the club's name! Fair play to humor the New stadium project tho.
Did Fergie have a DoF?

When I posted that Davies and Vo were coming, you lasted me as above. Lloris had just signed his new contract and you thought I was mad (to be fair you were right on that account)
Now both Davies and Vorm have signed and Sigurdsson has gone the other way as predicted weeks ago, perhaps you might now believe that Lloris is off to PSG.
