The Rumour Mill, who do you want/think your club will sign/sell this summer

Hmmm who else thinks that sheva won't join Chelsea.

BoomAM · 25 May 2006 at 17:49

Just you im afriaid.
While there are some good signs that he's staying, theres also an equal number of signs saying he's going.
So being the negative person i am, im preparing myself to watch Milan play without the worlds best striker.

Our replacment options are either drying up or would be bad signings for us.
Henrys signed a new contract.
Eto'o would have only left Barca if Henry came.
Tevez is untested outside of South America.
LucaToni would probably go Inter rarther than AC.
Adriano would prefer a move to Real.
Ronaldo is reportadly going to some American team.
RvN isnt a good idea for us.
And as for poaching some of Juve's strikers, thats entirely dependant on wether they get relegated or not.

In SeriaA, we can manage with just Gila. He has scored as many as Sheva this season in the league, but Inzaghi isnt exactely a long term option for European goals.

Morientes to Valencia for £3m - looks like it's going to happen

Shame really,but its as good a deal as we could have hoped for.Has to be one of our most disappointing ever signings along with Riedle.I know we've payed a lot more for much worse players in the past but those two were class players,just didn't do anything for us - hence the greater disapointment

Shame he never found his form.

Look forward to signing Kuyt now.

yeah, he seemed to always give 110% for his team and the fans but no where near the player i thought we had signed when i first heard he was becoming a red.

The Running Man · 25 May 2006 at 19:37

why cant UTD sign Johnson? i think he would doa good job for us, and is fairly cheap.

and then a left winger, and then a defensive mid, and lastly riquelme...

ManU have let Fortune go.

Ancelotti is interested in buying Emerson.

It was reported that they weren't renewing Fortune's contract and letting him go months ago. He was a squad player and nothing more.

Why would anyone want johnson. Especially Man Utd. That would be classic, get rid of RVN and get johnson in, nice lol.

lemonkettaz · 26 May 2006 at 09:34

You really believe that Kuyt is going to Newcastle? Any sources for this, or just feeling confident?

I think that you'll find the 'pool boys are equally confident of signing him...

lemonkettaz · 26 May 2006 at 10:02

a few stories and rumours... with us scouting him for ages and him saying he would like to join newcastle.

but its all noise at the moment.. we will see.. but i think we will get him.

he is everything we are looking for.. basically what we need and if we let him slip to liverpool then its a mistake from our transfer front this summer

Reading have had a £4.5million offer for J Lescott turned down.

Wolves are mad. We need the money, and we could replace him with bischoff
