[Soccer/Football] Summer Transfers?


Recommended Posts

In a way I feel sorry for Man Utd, they was offered the chance before to buy him, but didn't like the sound of things so refused him.

Now there has been some more dodgy deals to clean it up and now it looks like he is set to join UTD.

The reason why I feel sorry for Utd, is because what to say this saga won't happen again?

Most clubs now days wish to buy the player out right and only have performance related fees included in the contract.

The reason it is a 2 year loan is because of all this legal mumbo-jumbo involving the 3rd party owners of Tevez. I guess it seems to sorted and once the loan is finished we will sign him permanently at a cheaper deal with MSI (3rd Party owners).

yay :D We got Fowler!!

Yea, he's probably a bit past his best, but its just brilliant to have someone of that standard and experience playing for us. Even if he doesn't score loads, his experience should rub off on the rest of our players.

Congratulations! You have a footballing legend on your hands, and even though physically he is not as able as he used to be, the touch of class will never leave him.

Robbie Fowler will always score you goals. Legend.

I posted a blog post on him a while back here, which you might like to read.

Kieron Dyer isn't going to West Ham now because Newcastle are playing hard to get, they allow the player to talk terms, have a medical and allow him to say he likes it then say come back here and forget about West Ham :ermm:

Everton have bid ?11m for Porto's Argentine midfield man Luis Gonzalez.

Boss David Moyes is attempting to push through a deal for the 26-year-old as Everton face competition from Juventus and Lyon for Gonzalez's signature.

BBC Sport understands Everton are now awaiting a response to the bid, which would beat the club record ?8.6m paid to Crystal Palace for Andrew Johnson.

Everton are also poised to pay ?5m for Wigan's Leighton Baines after Newcastle admitted defeat in the transfer battle.

Gonzalez - known as "Lucho" - is a key figure in Porto's line-up, and figured in Argentina's squad at the recent Copa America.

When did Everton win the lotte:laugh:gh:

Yeah when did Everton get money? At the start of the season I thought Moyes said he hasn't got much money and wouldn't want to spend big.

Also any chance of Man Utd getting another right back? Watching Wes Brown in this chelsea match, let Malouda run past him and not bother to keep up.

How was that match?

Arsenal need to sign atleast 1 more player... Who do you people think it will be?
They won't be signing anymore players - their transfer dealings this summer are over but I wished they strengthened the defence position. I think Arsene made it clear in his last interview after the ajax match. Edited by NightCrawler.
Arsenal lack that solid defender known Sol, who by the way is the captain at a south coast club.

I tell you what, give us a few million for him!

He is priceless at Portsmouth, my dad recently saw him at a Tescos a pointless but interesting fact.

Sol shopping at Tescos? Dam Pompey are not paying players again, otherwise why would he be at a tescos? Then again, not that many top class food shops like london.

John Lewis is probably as posh as you can get...noone went up to Sol tho he was saying...obviously people didn't know who he was :laugh:

Real Madrid have announced that they have agreed an ?18.3m deal with Ajax for Dutch midfielder Wesley Sneijder.

The 23-year-old, who has 35 caps for Holland, is set to sign a five-year contract with the Spanish giants.

He is Real's fifth buy of the summer, following the purchase of defenders Christoph Metzelder and Pepe, striker Javier Saviola and goalie Jerzy Dudek.

The signing of Sneijder could have implications for Chelsea's Arjen Robben, who has been linked with Real.

Sneijder has scored 57 goals in 180 appearances for Ajax.

Another Dutchman, Royston Drenthe, is also expected to join the nine-times European champions.

The 20-year-old left-sided player, who has also been linked with Chelsea, is expected to complete a move from Feyenoord on Monday morning.

Good Signing for them(Y))

Sneijder is a good player, but I think Real payed a bit to much for him...but I suppose you will always pay a premium when you are Real Madrid.

Pretty much like they did for Pep? something like ?19m for an unproven player.

    • You can't remove Safari though. Or almost any other bundled app for that matter, and pretty much all of them are useless to me (and there are is a heap of them compared to Windows). I'll much rather take Edge than Safari, at least it can be highly customized vs. Safari. I'll take a PC with ten Edges over a Mac any day though as I can't stand all the limitation and painfully frustrationg restriction that make me dislike their stuff with a burning passion, iOS included (especially iOS).

    • Glow 26.9 by Razvan Serea Glow provides detailed reporting on every hardware component in your computer, saving you valuable time typically spent searching for CPU, motherboard, RAM, graphics card, and other stats. With Glow, all the information is conveniently presented in one clean interface, allowing you to easily access and review the comprehensive hardware details of your system. Glow provides detailed information on various system aspects, including OS, motherboard, processor, memory, graphics card, storage, network, battery, drivers, and services. The well-organized format ensures easy access to the required information. You can export all the gathered data to a plain text file, facilitating sharing with others for troubleshooting purposes. No installation needed. Just decompress the archive, launch the executable, and access computer-related information. Glow runs on Windows 11 and Windows 10 64-bit versions. Glow 26.9 changelog: New Features The processor hardware detection engine has been significantly enhanced beyond traditional Intel and AMD architectures. Native support is now available for modern platforms such as Apple Silicon (M-Series) and the newly introduced NVIDIA Spark. In addition, all ARM-based processors can now be accurately distinguished between ARM32 and ARM64 architectures, providing precise hardware reporting. This marks a major milestone for Glow's hardware detection capabilities. The RAM manufacturer identification algorithm has been expanded. JEDEC vendor codes for popular brands such as Patriot, PNY, Team Group, GeIL, Lexar (Longsys), and Asgard/Gloway have been integrated into the database. This significantly reduces the likelihood of incorrect or "Unknown Manufacturer" results and improves overall hardware detection accuracy. New Public IP Address and Internet Service Provider (ISP) features have been added to the Network section. To ensure reliability, this information is retrieved from the trusted service ipwho.is. When Hiding Mode is enabled, no requests are sent and these features remain hidden, as they may expose sensitive information. The search engine used in the Installed Drivers, Installed Services, and Installed Applications sections has been enhanced. You can now perform more flexible and accurate searches using initials, partial matches, and loosely arranged character sequences. The TS Preloader loading bar has been rebuilt using our modern TS Custom Controls graphics library, developed entirely in-house. As a result of this infrastructure upgrade, the loading bar now features smooth rendering and rounded corners that align with the visual style of Windows 11. [TS Updater] A new validation algorithm has been added to check whether the target application is currently running before the update process begins. Bug Fixes Resolved a condition that could prevent TS Preloader from shutting down safely during rare application crash scenarios. Fixed a text alignment issue in the Network section affecting the display of DNS addresses. Alignment is now rendered correctly. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue that could prevent the updated application's executable "*.exe" file from being located after the update process. [TS Updater] Fixed a bug that could leave outdated "*.sha256" files in the application directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed a rare issue that could cause subfolders to be moved into the root directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue during the first launch that could cause flickering and a temporary white window appearance due to Windows Defender interactions. Changes A small improvement has been made to the internet connectivity detection algorithm. Connectivity checks are now performed in the background with minimal impact on the user interface thread. The keyboard shortcuts in the top menu have been reorganized and simplified to provide a consistent experience across all Türkaysoft applications and to avoid potential conflicts with standard Windows shortcuts. The TS Preloader splash image has been updated with a Türkiye-themed stadium design to celebrate Türkiye's qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup—its first appearance in 24 years. Congratulations, Türkiye! The TS Custom Controls module has been updated to version 26.6, delivering improved stability and a more polished visual appearance. [TS Updater] The application icon has been redesigned to provide a more modern and refined look. Note: Always unzip the program before using it. Otherwise you may get an error.
