New month, new thread...

 

Aaaaand I'll kickoff by saying English newspapers are reporting Alexis prefers moving to Arsenal over Liverpool if Suárez moves to Barça and Liverpool are looking at Balotelli as a replacement.

 

They're also reporting James Rodríguez to Real if they can get rid of Di María.

 

Also apparently Keylor Navas is being chased by Arsenal and Liverpool.

 

Plus they're also reporting United is interested in Hummels.

Oh great, Newcastle could do with a new centre half.

 

 

Here I was thinking that using decorative figurines as a holding midfielder was something Moyes might try...

The possibility was mentioned in the June thread, but Ryan Gauld has gone to Sporting Lisbon for about £3M. Six year deal with a buyout clause at £48M. Good deal for everyone really.

 

Very impressed with all involved in this situation.  Hopefully DU can keep producing young talent.  Gauld for willing to go to Portugal and acknowledging it being a better league to develop in with his slight frame.  I'll be interested in his progress and hope he makes it to the top.  He's got the talent and the head to go with it, and the national team could definitely use some genuine talent.

If Eric Dier doesn't leave, then at least he'll have somebody to talk to.

Also there's rumors Eto'o may stay in the EPL as Arsenal and Everton are both interested in signing him.

Oh boy.

 

 

The increasingly bizarre world of Leeds United has taken another turn for the strange after it emerged that Massimo Cellino, their maverick new owner, has such a dislike of the number 17 it has turned him against one of the club’s key players who was born on that date.

 

Cellino is so suspicious of the number 17 that he had the seats at his former club, Cagliari, taken out and replaced with 16B. Now he has instructed the new Leeds head coach, Dave Hockaday, not to select Paddy Kenny after discovering that the goalkeeper’s birthday is on 17 May and concluding that he is bad luck for the Championship club. Kenny, the second-highest earner at Leeds on £10,000 a week, has been left at home while the other players embark on a pre-season trip to Italy and he will not play for the club again.

 

Cellino, who also has a fear of purple, has separate issues about Kenny allegedly being overweight but is said to have reacted emotionally when he found out the 36-year-old goalkeeper had a connection with the number 17.
