basically darren arsene has used his cash on the defender he obvioulsy now needs to sell to buy chamukh and melo i would love to have melo he looks brilliant.
i have heard that ajax tried to bring bendtner in but arsene said no. so if ade does go is bendtner better than ade!?
I'm hearing rumours of Ryan Babel going to Galatasaray in Turkey. In my opinion Babel is a highly underrated player, and generally underplayed player... I think, and have always thought, he has great potential here.. so please tell me these rumours aren't true.
FOOTBALL SPY: Its not a long shot at all TobSpurman. Spurs have made Young their number one priority this summer. But Young could have his pick of the big clubs with Ribery we believe going to Real Madrid.
no doubt van der sar is top class but he is winding down his career this year wont payasman games , ftewudh go c out on loan for me get a good year under him with no injuries before he could take over and for the polish lad he is more of a mid table team keeper so buffon has bags of experience can speak english at a good age 31 and could be bought for 13 million id say
man united need a keeper maybe buffon , right back , 2 wingers left and right silva and young , defensive midfielder gattuso and attacking pirlo maybe and a out and out goal scorer benzema essential buys i think
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi Ian, Why would United need a new keeper. Van der Sar is still good enough... The rest of the players you've mentioned in the areas you've mentioned are all still valid though.
I disagree there on that. I think they should definitely look at Casillas. He was world class in the Euro's and I think they should buy him and a winger .. maybe ashley young.
FOOTBALL SPY: See if you can see the highlights of Casillas's performance for Spain tonight in their Confederations Cup semi-final defeat to USA. Then tell me what you think...
He is over rated.. On his day he is the best in the business but he lacks consistency... I think reina should be in with a shout more often.
Any more news on David Silva to anfield? A double swoop for him and villa would be every scousers dream! Do you think if liverpool could afford him would he fancy it?? The number 7 shirt is waiting
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi Robbie, Sadly we have already recorded Thursday's show and your comment wasn't spotted in time to include it but from what we hear the David Silva deal is not dead by a long way. Having said that Valencia and Liverpool are some way off agreeing on a valuation.
FOOTBALL SPY: Everton have had a bid rejected for Stephen Defour but are likely to go back in again for him.
Villa look to have missed out on Drenthe as we are hearing that Italian club Fiorentina have reached preliminary agreement with Real Madrid to sign him.
Darren no more Ashley Young and Carew transfer news. You know how popular Football Spy is with Premier League managers!!! By the way 13.5 Million for Douglas Costa is a steal. He does have his attitude problems but there isnt a better manager than Sir Alex for that type of problem: reference Cantona, CR7 etc. Also Essien is the most underrated player in world football. Hes a fantastic player that should be one of the highest earners at Chelsea. He has learned the squeaky wheel gets the oil.
FOOTBALL SPY: Ha ha ha ha! Hello Mohaned. I will try and go quiet on the Ashley Young! I think you are right about Sir Alex and Cantona and CR7 but the difference is that they were older players than Costa is now and I fear that, at his age now, he could be a liability rather than a revelation for United.
You may be right but 13.5 Million isnt much. Considering CR7 was bought for 12.5M 6 years ago at a similar age, I think he would be worth the gamble. Flair players are always prone to the odd problem or 2 but hardly any of them have retired without the honours their talent deserves. I would be happy if Martin ONeil put in a bid for him. It would show some sort of intent. You can mention that on the show if you want, he will be watching.
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi Sonny, Felipe Melo of Fiorentina has been mentioned (he is currently playing at the Confederations Cup). But he is more of an attacking player in my opinion (do you agree?).
I keep hearing the name Gokhan Inler of Udinese. But will do some more digging to see what else I can find for you.
i think melo is sort off in the shape of the legendary patrick vieira, in the sense that he can attack aswell as defend at a high quality, hopefully we get him..... as for ghokan inler i would very much like him in a gunners shirt and would apreciate if you could find something for mee =]
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi Red Joe, there are supporters of lots of different teams in our place.
Some support West Ham, some support Arsenal, some like Man City and there are a few that support non-league teams as well. Its a big cross section. Who do you support?
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi Kon, I think it would have to be a monster offer for him to leave. What I think will happen is that Chelsea will offer him a nice new deal and he will stay.
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi DMagnusson, Celsinho has got a massive reputation in Brazil and they think he can go right to the very top.
He is 19, he plays for Lokomotiv Moscow but he found Russian football too rough so he went on loan first to Sporting in Portugal then to Amadora to gain more first-team experience. He is still very warmly regarded as he is excellent from set-pieces and has lots of skill with the ball at his feet.
FOOTBALL SPY: Not sure. I think the fact that he is still out on loan suggests he is not quite ready yet. My big fear for United is that everyone is expecting them to bring in a player who is at the stage Ronaldo is at NOW rather than at the stage he was. That's why Aguero might be a cross between the two. He is young but he is so technically gifted that it would be worth paying the £48million to buy out his contract.
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi Gary, Robben and Huntelaar look still to be Spurs-bound but Chelsea and LIverpool have entered the fray for Heinze. Watch this space...
FOOTBALL SPY: Hi Caldergrieve. Lots of tales coming out of Spain that Barca might sell Eto'o to raise the cash to get Villa from Valencia. We still think he is nailed on for Man City though.
FOOTBALL SPY UPDATE: 1pm - Real Madrid to switch their attention from Valencia's David Villa to Lyon's Karim Benzema as Valencia insist they will not sell.
Marouane Chamakh is not a prolific goal scorer. I thin kwe should get Marcus Berg , the Swedish Youngster.
