Dimitar Berbatov and Alan Curbishley


Dimitar Berbatov has finally gotten his wishes and moved to Manchester United for £32millio.
In my opinion way too much money for him! But hopefully for Man U fans (not for me!) he will be good there it will take work, but Ferguson is a great manager and knows which players work and which don't.

West Ham manager Alan Curbishley has won the sack race! anyone surprised? I knew he would be the one to win the sack race.
Who is next? I'm thinking King Kev!

Its official! Robbie Keane is a Liverpool player


Its official Robbie Keane is a Liverpool player. He was signed a 5-year for £20.3million. The striker has signed for the club that he has supported all his life, on the move he said:
“I do not think I let Spurs down. I had six fantastic seasons there and gave them everything. Since day one.I always give everything, and that will never change. The Spurs fans were always magnificent to me and I will always have a place in my heart for them.But this is a new chapter in my life and one that I am looking forward to. I had six great years at Spurs and thank them for that.There are players leaving Spurs, but there are also good players coming in. I can only focus on Robbie Keane and what is good for me.'

He might make his first appearance as a red tomorrow against Villarreal.
As a Liverpool fan i could not be more happy, i think he is a fantastic striker and i think he will work well with Torres.
But here is my question, what happens with the Berbatov move? I think Spurs have to let him go, he does not want to be there, but what good strikers will they have left? Darren Bent?... i think not. From what i'm hearing Spurs are willing to sell Berbatov, but they are willing to sell him to Manchester United for more than they are asking other clubs for. Is it fair? why should Manchester United pay more for?

Another thing i'm hearing is that Tottenham are hoping to replace Keane/Berbatov with Andrei Arshavin and are also looking to get David Bentley.
We will have to wait and see what Tottenham will do this transfer market, it will be interesting.

Lets talk about the latest transfers rumors...

After a very long hiatus the blog is back! And today i want to talk about the latest transfer rumors, even though i must say this transfer season has not been very entertaining

--Newcastle Goalkeeper Shay Given to Arsenal-I think that Almunia is a decent GK and maybe Arsenal should get a new younger GK just in case. I think this rumor is false. Since Lehmann left Almunia has taken the role of number 1 GK and i don't think Shay Given is going to leave Newcastle where he has a start every game to sit on the bench at Arsenal.

--Arsenal Defender Philippe Senderos to Newcastle for £4m, I've actually heard a lot about this and from what i'm hearing, Mr. Wenger does not want to sell Senderos, but the board does. Not a big loss for Arsenal and a good buy for Newcastle, i say Arsenal should sell him. We will see how this turns out.

--Real Madrid Forward Robinho to Chelsea, how many season have we been hearing this? the rumor is that Chelsea have offered around £31.5m, I can see this move happening, Chelsea need a striker, but i think this deal but up to whether Real Madrid sign either Ronaldo or Kaka, i don't think they would let him go if they don't have a back up plan.

--AC Milan Midfielder Kaka to Chelsea (move would not happen if Chelsea get Robinho) depending on what you have been reading he is off to Chelsea or Real Madrid, he is a quality player and any club would love to have him, but he does not seem interested in leaving Milan and Milan don't see interested in selling him, be we all know Mr. Abramovich can hand any team a blank check and get what he wants. I don't see him leaving Milan, and if he were to leave it would be to Real Madrid.

--Valencia Forward David Villa to Real Madrid or Tottenham since the Euros ended Villa has been linked with a move everywhere. He has come out and said that he does not want to leave Valencia, but he is 25, it might be time for a move. I think he could go to Real Madrid, if this were to happen I'm pretty sure they would sell Robinho. I think that most people would think he would not move to Tottenham, but i don't think this is such a crazy idea, true Tottenham or not in the top 4 and he would be giving up Champions league football, but its a new league, a Spanish manager and they are in a building stage, he could become a hero at Tottenham if he chose to go.

--Tottenham Forward Dimitar Berbatov to Manchester United Tottenham want £38m Man U want to pay £25m, i think no matter what Tottenham have to sell him, He does not want to be there and who wants a player that does not want to play for the club? In my opinion Spurs are being greed, to me his is not worth that much.

--Lyon Forward Karim Benzema to Manchester United, Lyons is probably the most annoying club to buy from they are greedy and change their prices all the time, Benzema has been linked with them for a while now, what i'm hearing is that its up to Man U signing Berbatov, whether or not this deal is made.

--Blackburn Rovers Forward Roque Santa Cruz to Manchester United, now that Mark Hughes is not at Blackburn i can really see him moving, but I'm also hearing that this transfer depends on the Berbatov/Man U move.

--Arsenal Midfielder Cesc Fabregas to Real Madrid, for a while there have been rumors of him leaving but he has come out and said he is not ready to leave Arsenal, but that in some future he would like to play for Real Madrid. So for now FALSE.

--Tottenham Forward Robbie Keane to Liverpool, there have been a lot of rumors that this is a done deal and that we are just waiting for the announcement and as a Liverpool fan i would love to have him, but if Tottenham sell Berbatov (which it seem like they will) how can they sell Robbie Keane? What strikers will they have left? I won't believe until is see it.
