i doubt they are even half decent but there are plenty SPL fans here who will vouch for their qualities.
Wonder what sort of fee was involved for that move. Stokes needs to cop himself on all right. Appears to be talented but will need to do things if he is to figure in our Worlc Cup squad should we qualify. Suppose he has been played out of position a fair bit and Hughes may get best out of him
SSN are reporting City and Everton have agreed a fee of 24m for Jolene Lescott.
The deal will take Mark Hughes spending at City past the 1/4 of a billion mark

I dont think Lescott is anything special. He is good in the oppositions box alright and decent on the ball but for a central defender I dont think he is that great really. Dunne and Toure have kept two clean sheets in the first two games. Is he going to drop one of those? Lescott was left back for Everton for a good while, if he was a top notch central defender I dont think he would have been moved. Id rate Upson superior and a good few more in the EPL.
Id rate Dunne superior to Lescott easily. Hopefully the bit of West Clare air has cleared MONās head. Get Dunne in and stop fucking around with bids for absolutely shit players like Steven Warnock and James Collins. Warnock is appalling as a defender.
Sylvinio has signed for Man City as a free agent. Last seen lifting the Champions League with Barca last May.
Ah lovely, used to love the bould Silvinho, made it tough to see that cunt Cashley run him out of the Arse. Still he went onto bigger and better things.
Bit of a strange singing though MBB what age is he now ? 34/35?
I read 8 million as the price quoted for him. That is utterly crazy. A distinctly average player.
Some odd ones today
Notts County are expected to sign Sol Campbell today, making him the best paid player below the EPL
Aston Villa are in negociations for Sylvain Distin
Hull have agreed a 2 million pound fee with sunderland to sign Paul McShane
West Ham are after AC Milanās Massimo Oddo, he may be 33 but would be a fairly decent signing while Pompey are expect to complete the signing Aruna Dindane from Lensā¦
Sam Allerdyce says 10M is the going rate for a player like Warnock!
Sol Campbell allegedly getting 60k a week of Notts County!
Also, Anderson has been told to get the fuck out of my house by Lord Fergā¦seemingly there was a āblazing rowāā¦no-one beats Lord Ferg in such matters so its good luck and bye bye to Anderson, which is a pity cos I fancied him to become a great player after he totally dominated Stephen Gerrard in a Utd/Pool game there a while back.

Campbell will be getting paid probably two or three times the entire wage bill of your average League Two clubās playing staff.
He has also signed a 5 year dealā¦Fair play to Solā¦
A 5 year deal. Is he not like 34/35 years of age or so?
This is insane.

Thatās some sick shitā¦
English football is absurd.
These Sol Campbell and Stephen Warnock deals are

He would be around 35 alright, Sol has indeed landed on a good thing hereā¦Doubt any premier league side would have given 60k or that long a contract
Wesley Sneijder is about to join Inter Milan, shame, would have loved to see him in England. Classy player, no mention of a fee.
Good footballer alright, would hold his own in any sideā¦A lot of lads at Madrid that could be picked up relatively cheap in the next weekā¦
Any word on van Nistelrooy signing for another club, surley worth a punt by someone like Villa, Spurs or the like.
