[Football] Summer 2009 transfer thread


Recommended Posts

?18 million for Glen Johnson? ?18 million for Antonio Valencia?

The world has gone mad.

Benzema is going to the Mancs for ?38 million as well apparently.

38 million! That's a hell of a lot for Benzema, but since Real went crazy I'm not really surprised. Lyon and many other clubs which have United targets see we have ?80 million to potentially spend, so they'll be in charge of the situation and tell us to cough up. Personally anything over ?30 million for Benzema is too much.

Pjanic has now denied the Benzema quotes about him joining Man Utd, but as Weld_El_7aj said he is close to joining Madrid according to his agent.

Miralem Pjanic is one for the future (Y)

Meanwhile we are strengthening our defense and about time.. word is Cana is next Wenger wants.. He wanted Melo but Melo doesn't want to leave his club.. I still hope we sell Ade and get a better striker than him plus a winger..

Spuds meanwhile want Maxi Rodriguez..

Olivier Blanc, from OL just denied the news that appeared on the spanish papers in L'equipe, he said that OL got a offer close to what Marca told, 35m? but didn't said from which club.

well, knowing how OL presindent is, he'll get more than 35m? for a good 21y-o player.

He has gone to Real Madrid now, 35 million euros, which could rise to 41 million euros.

Real Madrid's attackers now:

Kaka,

Ronaldo,

Benzema,

Raul,

RvN,

Guti,

Sneijder,

Van der Vaart,

Huntelaar,

Robben,

Negredo,

Higuain,

It will be interesting to see how they fit them all in ;)

I'm sure Liverpool will beat them 5-0 again next season :p

I think the more interesting thing will be if Real Madrid don't win the League/CL :laugh:

ATM anything can happen.. they are not investing in defenders to match their attack.. they can win 5-4 or lose 4-0..

What I'm saying is if they don't win, or don't at least reach the CL final it's going to be "embarrassing" for them after wielding around all that money without a care in the world.

And I agree mate.. anyways.. guess who Man U are looking at to replace Ronaldo?

Michael Owen would not have been the name on most people's lips when suggestions were mooted as to how Sir Alex Ferguson could reinforce Manchester United's depleted forward line, following the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid, and the imminent exit of Carlos Tevez, probably to Manchester City.

Not only is Owen an icon at United's fierce Lancashire rivals Liverpool, but he has also endured a spate of injuries during his time at Newcastle United and, prior to that, at Real Madrid, something which has seen him lose his place in the England squad.

However, Sky Sports News is reporting that it "understands" that "tentative" talks have begun between Owen's representatives and United, after bookmakers' odds on a likely move fell from 20/1 this morning to an astonishing 9/4 on this evening.

Yes! Thats right! its Owen.. :blink: They started with Ribery then Benz and now Owen.. thats like wanting to buy a Ferrari and settling for a Nissan Micra..

Come..... A?Nissan Micra is more reliable than Micheal Owen.

Chelsea Football Club can confirm it has completely rejected an offer from Manchester City for John Terry.

It was made clear to City, for the second time following an approach last season, that we would not entertain any conversation on the subject.

At that time John also reiterated his total commitment to Chelsea.

We would like to make clear, and will not do so again, that John is not for sale.

HAHA :D

Come..... A?Nissan Micra is more reliable than Micheal Owen.

Its strange.. on one hand Madrid are buying great players who United want and these players are rejecting United to go to Real and then we have United who want to buy a striker that Madrid sold (or rejected.. if that helps get the point across) because he was not performing..

ATM I'm honestly not worried abt United next season.. with this squad they are no better than Everton.. maybe Fergie learnt smth from AW and wants to give his young players more chances next season.. in that case he should also rem that we are trophee-less for 4 seasons.. but will end this season :))

Edited by Kralik

Reminds of Fergie getting Bosnich to help negotiations with Barthez. You buy someone on the cheap/free so you don't come across as *needing* the player you want and so don't get held to ransom.

As for Benzema he said last year he'd never come to england so I never expected him to join us.

Wow, he's taking a 50% pay cut to join us! He's being offered ?50k a week plus huge bonus for appearances and goals. He's gotta pass the medical first, which could take place today.

I think at Man U, Owen might have a chance to get back into the limelight. If he works with the best (like he did at Liverpool), then he should play like the best.

An ex-Evertonian and an ex-Liverpudlian up front for Man Utd next season.

I hope he falls crashing on his face the money grabbing ******.

Owen played really well for Madrid.

I hope he passes the medical and does something for his career at Man United to be quite honest. I hate Man United, but Michael Owen was my favorite footballer as I was growing up and getting into football.

I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do, Fergie wouldn't sign him if he knew he was utter crap. (Y)

Jumping the gun a bit, aren't you? He's taking a 50% pay cut to join United.

    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
