Shaqiri to Stoke is one thing but Cabaye to Palace?!! Why aren't so many other teams bigger than they are after him!

Apparently we are, but we've already bought one big midfielder and should be confirming Song soon so maybe not.

Not sure what Bacca would go to Inter for unless it's just all about the $$$. He should be playing champion's league.

Lukas Podolski has left Arsenal to join Galatasaray according to them.

 

 

Non-shock of the weekend!

 

Everything seems to have gone quiet about who else Arsenal have in mind now, with Schneiderlin looking likely for Utd and Lacazette seemingly off the cards.

Something's fishy at Man Utd, I've no idea why they're being so slow in the transfer market (Depay aside of course). I've heard rumours it is to do with the new Adidas kit, but I think that's bullshit. Expect Schneiderlin will end up at Man Utd, but think there's some disagreement over his price, and the decent papers today reckon that he favours Arsenal over Utd.

Just out interest - decent papers?

Just out interest - decent papers?

 

Broadsheets - Guardian, Independent, Telegraph, Observer - usually I find if they're making a link/claim there's at least some truth behind it, unlike a lot of the tabloids who just re-hash stuff from Goal.com.

Also right now I think once the Sterling to Man City goes through, a lot more transfers will. Quite a lot of potential deals that are being talked about all hinge on that going through, or waiting to see what the price agreement is at least.

van Persie looks set to leave Man United for Fenerbache. Surprised how muted the reaction seems to be, he was the main reason for their last title win!

Only one I saw reporting the Schneiderlin thing was The Times but then again I didn't look very hard. And with all due respect, Duncan Castles is the worst out there for having an anti-United agenda. He'd do it just to spite the fans the stupid prick. You only need to take a look at his player ratings for prolific 'big wins' for us to see that.

 

That being said Schneiderlin would be a much better fit for Arsenal than us I reckon (although still a very good acquisition). He'd be perfect for them. Mind due, Wenger's still probably holding off signing a decent striker on the back of Coquelin's performances last season. It'd be way too much forward logic and sensibility for him to actually actively pursue it.

The amount of flack he's receiving on Twitter is unbelievable. He was our key component the last time we got the title. Think it's more the general opinion of him being a bad apple in the dressing room than genuine animosity though.

Today's Gossip Column:

 

Liverpool will continue their summer spending by matching the £32.5m buy-out clause in Christian Benteke's contract to bring Aston Villa's 24-year-old Belgium forward to Anfield. (Daily Express)

 

With the future of De Gea uncertain, United are considering a move for Stoke's 28-year-old Bosnia goalkeeper Asmir Begovic, who is also a target for Chelsea. (Daily Mirror)

 

Arsenal have made initial contact with Spain international Pedro's representatives over a move for the 27-year-old Barcelona winger. (Independent)

 

The Gunners will also pursue a big-money move for Chile midfielder Arturo Vidal with his club Juventus now willing to sell the 28-year-old. (Metro)

 

Southampton expect to complete a deal for Belgium defender Toby Alderweireld, who spent last season on loan at St Mary's, after Atletico Madrid failed to cancel the buy-out clause in the 26-year-old's contract in time. (Talksport)

 

The Saints are prepared to take legal action to ensure that Alderweireld joins them and not Premier League rivals Tottenham, who have agreed an £11.5m deal with the Spanish club. (Daily Mirror)

And if rumours are to be believed we also want Sunderland's Liam Bridcutt!

 

Please take him :)

Man United have had a bid for Morgan Schneiderlin rejected the Southampton boss Ronald Koeman has confirmed:

 

"Two weeks ago we had a bid from United but it was not the bid we expected, it wasn't serious and no bids today".

 

Nani has joined Fenerbahce for £4.25m on a three-year deal following eight years and 229 apperances for Manchester United.

 

 

 

 

Southampton have signed defender Cuco Martina from FC Twente on a two-year contract.

 

Manchester City have signed Enes Unal from Bursapor for a undisclosed fee and Barcelona have signed Atletico Madrid's Arda Turan for a fee of £24m although he won't be able to play for them until January due to Barcelona being unable to register new players under the terms of a FIFA ban.

 

According to the Daily Mail.

 

Juventus defender Angelo Ogbonna has agreed to join West Ham instead of Everton in an £8 million deal.

 

 

 

Wow, where are West Ham getting all their money from? :lol:

 

The last time we spent so much was 2007 and that was largely wasted on crocks like Dyer, Bellamy and Ljungberg. Saying that, we spent a fait amount last summer but that felt like bargains!/

Manchester United have reportedly agreed a £12.7m fee with Torino for right-back Matteo Darmian.

Edited July 7, 20159 yr by Cassidy

^ No news confirmed officially from Manchester United about Darmian,

 

 

 

Tottenham have signed Toby Alderweireld for a undisclosed fee from Atletico Madrid on a five-year contract. However Southampton may take legal action as they belived that they had an option to buy him for £6.8m unless Atletico paid £1.5m to buy back that clause. We'll wait and see what happens regarding that situation.

 

Crystal Palace look very close to completing the signing of PSG's Yohan Cabaye for £10m which would be their record signing. What a signing this could be if Cabaye can reproduce the form he showed when he was at Newcastle.

Hence why I said 'reportedly'. From what I can gather from his personal feeds alone it's as good as done.
