January Transfer Window Thread

Guillerm doesnt it wrong much.

He said a similar thing last summer though and claimed Ronaldo was going so hes putting his neck out on this one. I tried getting on his website but its just all betting pop ups.

Boa Morte is on his way to Hull from West Ham and Kevin Kilbane could be on his way ot Hull also…Lovenkrands is on his way to Newcastle til the end of the season

Former Celtic Legend Steven Pressley has joined Falkirk

From rte.ie

Argentina coach Diego Maradona has said Carlos Tevez should think of leaving Manchester United for Serie A title holders Inter Milan.

The 24-year-old Argentine forward’s future with the English and European champions is in doubt with his current deal due to expire at the end of the season.

‘Yesterday (Sunday) I saw Manchester United win (3-0 against Chelsea) without Tevez. This isn’t good for him,’ Maradona was quoted as saying by Corriere dello Sport.

'Certain episodes are certainly bringing closer his exit. Italy and Inter in particular would be excellent solutions.

‘What’s more, his contract is running out, which makes it easier to change team.’

Maradona, who is in Italy to watch Inter’s Italian Cup tie against Genoa at the San Siro later on Tuesday, said Atletico Madrid’s Argentine striker Sergio Aguero should also consider transferring to Inter.

‘What advice would I give him? To come running to Inter. I can already imagine the extraordinary partnership he’d form with (Zlatan) Ibrahimovic.’

Aguero is in a relationship with Maradona’s daughter Giannina, who is expecting his child next month.

West Ham will be happy with that. A useless high earner of the wage bill and probably a couple of million on top of it. Thats 2 reserve left wingers sold in a week.

Hopefully Kilbane gets playing left back at Hull. He worries me for Ireland playing there and some regular playing in that position can only benefit him.

What worries me even more is that we have no rael alternative!

I can fully understand why those who support the Irish national team would have concerns about Kilbane at left back.

Just realised that Hull will probably have an Irish Centre Half and an Irish midfielder occupying their full back positions. They’ll surely be relegated!

Another worrying thing - Hull could have 3 players starting on the Irish team, more than any other club.

Shit that’s quite an indictment of our talents.

Sky Sports Breaking News!

Brian Swanson* has exclusively revealed that Manchester City have opened talks with Milan over the transfer of Kaka!

He said that City’s Executive Chairman Garry Cook spent the day in Milan and met with senior Milan officials.

  • This is the clown who spent a month in Los Angeles after Beckham signed for Galaxy and used to report live from their training sessions giving a run down on what was happening:

‘And there he is…if you zoom in…just a little to the right…that’s Beckham doing some light stretches…and we’re bringing these pictures of David Beckham’s first ever training session with LA Galaxy exclusively live on Sky Sport News…and there he goes…that’s Beckham jogging across the pitch with his new team-mates…exclusively live on Sky Sports News.’

He’s an utter dickhead.

Pretty shit transfer window so far. Things probably won’t start happening until the day before it slams shut.

Yer man Swanson’s just said that Harry Redknapp’s also in Milan trying to finalise a swap deal - Adriano for Gareth Bale!

What the fook.

Adriano missed a peno and also scored for the nerrazuri in their cup game with Genoa.

The cunts have now taken a 3-1 lead in ET thanks to Cambiasso and Zlatan, but of course they couldn’t win in 90 minutes like I’d backed them to.

GALLIANI WARNING FOR BORDEAUX
AC Milan vice president Adriano Galliani has warned Bordeaux fans they will not be seeing much more of Yoann Gourcuff unless their team stump up 15million euros.

The 22-year-old has been a revelation during his loan spell with Les Girondins and is being touted in France as the successor to Zinedine Zidane.

But Milan are in no hurry to offload their midfielder so Bordeaux will have to reach deep into their pockets if they want him to stay beyond the end of the season.

Galliani told French sports daily L’Equipe: "Yoann belongs to us. Cross your fingers that you’ll get him back.

“If Bordeaux won’t pay the right ransom of 15million euros, Yoann will return to us.”

Galliani ruled out the possibility of a third party making a move for the player, stating he would spend next season “at Bordeaux or Milan, but not elsewhere”.

And he believes Gourcuff would find more playing time in the Rossoneri midfield than previously should he choose to return.

Galliani said: "If he didn’t play much between 2006 and 2008 it is because he has had to contend with monstrous competition, that is to say (Gennaro) Gattuso, (Massimo) Ambrosini, (Andrea) Pirlo, (Clarence) Seedorf and Kaka.

“Yoann is an excellent player, and is proving it with Bordeaux and the French national team. There will be space for him at Milan.”

Gourcuff is a serious player, Milan badly slipped up there this season, he should be starting for them instead of Bordeaux.

City in talks on Kaka deal

Manchester City have been linked with a sensational €100m bid for AC Milan star Kaka.

A website owned by Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi is reporting that a City delegation was in the city yesterday to open talks over the 26-year-old Brazil playmaker.

‘This time they (Manchester City) are here for real with an official delegation,’ said the report on the mediaset website.

‘Manchester City want Kaka at all costs and they have shown their cards. Garry Cook, two representatives of Sheik Mansour and Kia Joorabchian, who is acting as a mediator, met with Adriano Galliani and Ernesto Bronzetti (Milan’s chief executive and commercial director) and made their offer.’

The report claimed that City have offered €100m to Milan, and would then pay Kaka €15m per season.

Berlusconi was not quoted in the story, but told Corriere dello Sport he does not want to sell the player.

‘I know nothing about the offer, but I hope he stays at Milan,’ Berlusconi said.

Heard that getting top billing on RT this morning. I can’t see it happening at all. Nothing against your team MBB but I’d be disgusted with Kaka if he just went following cash.

Anyway think it’s overstated by saying it’s a website owned by Berlusconi. He owns so much of the media in Italy and a website like Mediaset isn’t going to have much of an inside track on things like this. It’s just a way of hyping the story a bit by making it sound more official.

City may well be trying something though.

One other point - that Kia Joorabchian guy is nothing but a cunt and I wish some clubs would have the balls to tell him to fuck off.
