This is all coming from italian press i wouldnt believe a word of it there worse than english press for making stuff up. I checked brasillian sports channel last night & again this morning & not a word of it. As leandro is 3rd party owned i checked rueters & again nothing so there was no bid as corperation that owns one third of him would have to declare it to shareholders & it would be posted on stockexchange so its all bs.
There was a deal for a striker agreed depending on cl that fell through top striker in european lg heard this from ex player who was over at an event in dublin last wkend wouldnt say who thou reckons there still trying for him but not looking good with no cl. He did say a deal for that colombian geezer pabon looks like a goer. Theres also some portugese player that is been worked on.

First post of the close season
There is a difference in what the club wants to do and what it can do. We still need buyers for "fringe" (closer to outcast) players. Our wage structure is always a problem but the ceiling is now slightly higher. Transfer fees arent so much of an issue as most clubs now structure payments.
GK
Told our top target is Lloris and the club is confident its doable
Defence
Our main target is obvious. Nelsen and Gallas to be released. King offered a one year deal. 50/50 on Caulker either we loan him or he is cover for Kaboul and our New guy. Looking for a fee for Charlie and Bassong.
Midfield
No big sales is the word going round WHL. Looking for a fee for Niko and Jenas nobody even mentions Bently anymore. Seriously looking at Remy as an attacking option and wing play
Strikers
I've got nothing not even a maybe. Ins or outs its a very cloudy area apparently

Sounds good mate, but if you dont mind my asking how would you know this?
Agree3

I do business with an ex player who still has alot of involvement with the club. Not naming names for obvious reasons. I simply pass on what he tells me. Sometimes its plain English sometimes its more cryptic

King should be offered a pay as you play contract. It seems reasonable as he doesn't even train with the team

What kind of business? Hook me up a job?!?!

Redknapp is looking at bringing in Neymar as he has told the press in Brazil that he would prefer a move to london but chelsea are looking to swoop following spurs missing out on champions league!
Believable5

Is that the same neymar who has signed a pre contract agreement with barcelona (who have already made a downpayment)months ago who is writing this stuff hans christian anderson ?
Agree9
Disagree2
I think we want him on loan, he is a brilliant player but I dont see the point in the move
Agree1

Downpayment on neymr but it hasnt finalised anything. it was around 20m with another 50 to pay (or along those lines) however if santos decide to sell elsewhere they have to pay Barca back 30m. so its not official he is deffo joining barca. but yes i admit massively unlikely.

Total trash!! barcelona have not agreed anything with anyone!! neither the club nor the player!! you lot must live in a fantasy football manager world or something!!

I would get rid of modric asap and go and get dembele....plays the same position but scores goals! maybe vertoghen and a decent striker and i'd be happy!

I agree let modric go take the 40 mill plus adam johnson, or someone who wants play for the shirt not cash. so come on levy spash some cash and take us to the next step, also seen hazzard has agreed to join man city, man utd and chealsea hows he gonna play for all 3 at the same time..lol,
Agree4
Disagree4
Yes let's sell our best players and bring in inferior replacements whilst we pocket the remaining cash
We sold Berbatov and struggled with relegation the following season..
Agree6

Dembele plays nothing like the same position as modric! he lays closer to the VDV role....
Agree7
Disagree1
Modric is the same player now that he was last year and the year before. He has neve been a goal scorer but is a great all-rounder that would be difficult to replace. In recent weeks he hasn't been at the very top of his game but has still been one of the best players we have had on the pitch. He was part of the slump, not its cause. Just because he fancies doubling his wages at a club that doesn't have to balance the books and can throw money around, that doesn't make him a traitor and it doesn't make him a bad player. I hope he stays but he has my thanks if he goes.

We sold berbatov cus he went on strike and did not wasnt to play for ramos in a team that was pissy cus there had sack martin jol. then we got harry and became contenders. please get it right
Agree3
Disagree2
If we loose Modric be better of horse trading with Madrid for Sahin plus some cash. Get him out of the PL and get someone that looks capable of playing the same role.
Agree6
Disagree1
Dembele scores goals? that's news to me when?
Agree4
Disagree2
Im not saying modric is a bad player, far from it but do you really want another summer like last with transfer requests and missing games because his "heads not right", if anything parker is great at holding the ball, maybe a more attacking partner is a better way to go. also, it wasnt the fact we sold berba that we battled relegation, it was because we signed pav and rasiak as his replacement.....

Modric for 40m? really? guy plays a whole season 5assists and 4 goals and he is worth 40m? wow so ramsey at arsenal is worth the same? the guy had the same stats with modric and wasnt a regular starter there!!

Vertonghen deal to be announced soon I think.
Missed out on Hazard, but this was obvious.
Saha and Nelson released from contract.
Don't be shocked to see Ade and Remy sign also.
A brazilian player to sign too, not sure who yet though, but Levy has had talks with a players agent.
Will probably get hounded for this, but it's more than just opinion!

We should sign Lloris(GK) Vertonghen(CB) Tasci (CB) Armero (LB) Hoilett (M) as Lennon has spells where he is injured or crap Remy (S) and Damiao(S)
We should get rid of Friedal, Bassong, Corluka, Gallas, King, Jenas, Saha, Dos Santos (I would like to see him play but not likely now)

It appears that QPR are interested in signing JJ as a replacement for Barton. A £4m bid has been mentioned on numerous sites.
Dear Mr Levy - TAKE IT and use it to make up the difference for Jan V !! If JJ was any good he'd have played when fit. He hasnt because he isnt. My mother could play better that JJ and shes been dead a year!
Flippit.

It's more than just Levy playing hardball - lets face it, ajax are asking an obscene amount for someone with just a year left
Agree6
Disagree2
Totally agree, but the main point I was making is that JJ is worse than bloody useless and the sooner we start getting rid of those suited to a 'mid to top half team', the sooner we can become what we want - a REGULAR top 4 team (with all the rewards that brings). Players of JJ's calibre are exactly what we don't need. Plus regular readers of my posts will know how little I rate him anyway.

Nottingham Forest Defender Jamel Lascelles Will be holding talks with his agent today about a possible move to white heart Lane. Lascelles will cost in the region of £2.million after add on costs. Very good Player with a great future.

Harry Redknapp has ruled out a move for Matias Silvestre of Palermo. I guess that means we're signing him then?
