TKIZ's impossibly brilliant all new Transfer Rumours thread

[Lofthouse Lower]

I work with a Wednesday fan who saw more of him in midfield than we ever did, and he thought him too lightweight for that position. Nice passer but too soft.

He was shit at right back too

Maybe he's a know nowt cock like you

That'd make three of us eh then you bell x

[hisroyalgingerness]

Funny he was considered lightweight, I saw a few reserve matches where he was the biggest lad on the pitch - against Arsenal's yoof and the like

Speaking of other rumours that refuse to die, this Thiago deal really does seem to have something in it.

We're the only club willing to basically let Barca dictate the terms of the agreement which I imagine are along the lines of 'you give us 10M for him, we have the option to buy him back for 10M at anytime within the next 3/4 years (or whatever). Essentially a long-term loan.

Would afford Thiago the same privilages that Pique and Fabregas have- at obviously a smaller club- of playing in the Premier Leauge- but would also accommodate Barca who can buy him back without taking a hit.

We get a player well beyond what we 'should' be getting for a club our size.
Barcelona get a player developed for free.

If I was betting, I'd say he'll stay at Barcelona. But I suspect if he is leaving we're in with a chance. As ever will depend on how strong the players will is, if as reported he really wants to go to Chelsea then I doubt there is much Barca can do to stop him, short of keeping him!

Ahem...What do I win?

Uh-oh, we'll need to put Jimbo on suicide watch

[ohjimmyjimmy]

He could still get loaned out.

[wanderers_on_tour]

I'm guessing the new contract has everything to do with a potential loan deal next season.

He's coming then!

I'm hardly arsed either way, other than to the point of 'I want us to sign player X because he is a quality player'.

Woah, woah, woah, unfortunately I can categorically announce I am not "In the know". My second cousin's best friend does not work at the training ground and I haven't seen Thiago eating paella with Owen Coyle in the town centre..

Bolton in hurry to tie up Moreno deal
Published 22:59 29/06/11 By Alan Nixon

Bolton boss Owen Coyle wants to rush through a deal for Spanish starlet Rodrigo Moreno – before the player jets out to the Under-20s World Cup finals.

Coyle is close to an agreement with Benfica to sign the attacker, who spent last season on loan at the Reebok, on a similiar deal.

Rodrigo is due to lead the line for Spain in Colombia next month, and Coyle does not want him on the market in that tournament.

Bolton will pay Benfica to take him for the season and have an agreement in place to sign him permanently for around £4million if the next year goes well.

Benfica are prepared to let Rodrigo go, but they want to get some money back after taking him from Real Madrid 12 months ago.

Also, Blerim Dzemaili, who we released on a free, has today moved from Parma to Napoli for 9 million euros

Well, I had a slash in the stones in Bolton Town Hall, next to Mark Patterson ... & I didn't even sneak a look.

Did he splash your big shoes?

Apparently we're after an Egyptian freebie whose name is a randomly computer generated CATCHPA.
Or it's such a secret deal it's been encoded. Hosny-Abd-Rabo

I think I cracked the code and it's either... Thiago Alcantara... or Miguel Veloso...

African Cup player of the year 2K08

Upson to Spurs, means they probably won't be interested in Cahill......

African Cup player of the year 2K08

Forgive me, but surely writing 2K08 takes as much effort as 2008, and therefore, and I don't wish to seem confrontational here, but why f*cking bother when we've already come up with a perfectly adequate system to express the number 2008?

At least when i write Mavis it saves valuable finger wear

Maybe a typo?

[Lord Kangana]

Never.
