What are Liverpool going to do with Barry? Buy him or not?

It’s sad to see them unsettle a player and then leave him in the lurch like this.

Liverpool have signed 19-yr old French striker David Ngog from PSG. Eddie will surely tell you all about him tomorrow.

I take the Muntari comment back. The BBC says that Inter have agreed a contract with Muntari and that a 12.7m move is expected to go through today with Pompey. Strange, but then that’s Mourinho for you.

mandutd – I was referring to the Gomez comment, not the Hleb comment.

Hi Ahmed Bilal, just to update on your comment. don’t you read the news that helb is already training with Bacelona. so it’s a closed story.

to share some with you all, Chealsea has a 50% percent chance of landing Robinho from Real Madrid. From all points of view, i see all the possibility that he will come to England. Who says Real Madrid is a big club. yes, it was in the past, not now.

England has the greatest teams in the world.

Sky Sports claim that Inter are after Pompey’s Sulley Muntari.

Not sure what to make of it, but given Sky Sports past record with ‘Sky Sports understands’, I doubt this. At best, Muntari is being lined up as a backup if the proposed Quaresma bid (if that’s true) fails.

Bayern say they considered buying Hleb, and that they might buy Gomez next summer.

THAT is conducting your transfers through the press – when your chairman tells the press that the club is after another player. Let me go show this to a certain Bayern fan…

Wigan have almost bagged Cattermole from Middlesbrough, with the finer details left to sort out.

Surprised that Boro are letting him go but Cattermole is a decent player and a fighter and will do well at Wigan.

Blackburn have been linked to Palermo midfielder Mark Bresciano.

The guy has been linked to mid-level Premier League teams for the last 2 years. It’s a standard rumour dug up once every 3 months. Wonder how long this one will last…
