Has anyone else been wondering why nobody has tried to get Jack Wilshere on loan from Arsenal? I can imagine the most use he will be put to with Arsenal this season is the league cup. That kid really looks the goods.

Also, i see Barca have signed Chygrynskiy.
Meant to be a top shelf defender from what i've heard.
Bloody expensive though, 25m euros.

Sunderland have signed Michael Turner for an undisclosed fee.
Decent singing for Sunderland, Steve Bruce is building up a nice squad there.

Am I the only person who doesn't think the tackle looks THAT bad? Bad outcome obviously though but I don't think there was malicious intent there.
I'm not too keen on Michael Turner ning, I dunno what the fuss is about. We better not have paid 12 bloody million for him that's for sure.

There probably wasn't malicious intent so to speak, but he lunged in with studs showing. Extremely reckless.
As for Turner, 12m is definitely way too much if you have paid that. He did a good job for Hull last season and should manage to score a few with his head. I'd say 6-7m is a fair price for him.

IMO he had eyes for the ball. I don't think he was trying to break legs lol

easy first up win for Barca. Bojan and Xavi were awesome.
Ibra looked ordinary, just as i suspected. He just doesnt fit our system. Hes a better finishing version of Gudjohnsen.

Spurs interested in Kranjcar and Petrov.
Bentley possibly moving to Citeh.

DUDE! Ibra was pretty good this morning, he held the ball up really well and had Bojan running well off him plus he did some classy things further away from goal which gives me hope for him contributing not just goals. I can imagine once they have spent time together Messi scoring a lot of goals running off Ibra's shoulder.

City can have Bentley for the supposed 10 million pound and Petrov.
Not sure re Kranjcar, even if he is another Croatian (have a whole country supporting us we will) as realistically he will just be injury cover for Modric, who the latest says he is put for only 6 weeks. Thr money being touted around though of 2.5 million seems a pretty cheap deal but.
Love the mad rush, will be interesting to see what transpires while we are asleep.

I think Kranjcar is a very handy player and at 2.5m he would be an absolute bargain IMO.
