The DEFINITIVE English football banter thread

How many attacking players do Chelsea wan't?.

They are chasing that Andre Schurrle from Leverkusen aswell.

Also looks like Spurs are close too signing Hugo Lloris from Lyon.

Carroll is now linked with West Ham and a return too Newcastle! What happen'd too Milan? Will be surprised if Liverpool sell him..

EDIT: Also according too sky sources, David Silva has told Real Madrid he will not be signing a new contract with Man City.

I don't get why Chelsea need Schurrle either. They already have Mata, Marin, Hazard, Malouda, Meireles, Ramires, and Benayoun who are all attacking players, or players who can be deployed in attacking positions. Although Malouda and Benayoun might leave, they surely have enough cover with the rast of that list.

Lloris would be a great signing for Spurs. He's one of the top keepers in Europe. A good replacement for Fridel and Cudicini who are coming to the end of their great careers.

From being linked with Milan to being linked with West Ham? Oh to be Andy Carroll lol!

I don't see Silva leaving City just yet. I think he'll play at least one more, maybe 2 seasons at City before having a crack at Real or Barca.
Funny fact; Silva started his career as a goalkeeper!

Toronto 3 - 2 Whitecaps

0-0 at half time saw the Whitecaps get to 225 minutes without conceding, fun times. Took a 1-0 lead too thanks to Mattocks dragging us again.

Sadly Toronto would then get all momentum and score on the 69th minute...and the 73rd.

FUCK SAKE! :@

But, it looked like we would steal a valuable point! Mattocks once again scoring to make it 2 all after 90 minutes of play. We're going to get a po--Oh...they scored again...How smelly

If anyone wants to make a bit of money for the future. Put a small bet on them to go down again.

They seem to be following Plymouth

That's definitely worth a tickle!

Apparently Joao Moutinho is keen on a move too Spurs!

I really hope not.. Class player for Porto and would be gutted too see him leave for anyone else but United.

Kolo Toure has been told he is no longer needed at Man City.

Liverpool have reportedly agreed a £12mil deal too make Fabio Borini there first signing of the season.

Please not Spurs!! I guess it's better than him going to City or Liverpool, but I think he's the perfect player that United need to fill Scholes' boots!

Toure will make a good signing for a top PL side. Drugs ban aside, he's a decent centre back. Would Arsenal take him back?
At 31, he's still got a few years of top level football left in him IMO.

Borini's a very promising young striker. I remember him when he was on lean at Swansea a couple of seasons back, so Rodgers is familiar with him. Scored 6 in 9 games for the Swans, albeit in the Championship. He was also in Italy's Euro squad after a decent season at Roma last year. At just 21 years old good signing IMO.
