TKIZ's impossibly brilliant all new Transfer Rumours thread

[mullayo]

Chelsea want a whopping £3million if any club wants to take Daniel Sturridge on loan..

PAY IT FOR CHRIST SAKE . PAY IT .

Would that be for 6 months or a year? Plus full wages probably so another $2m = $5m GBP?

Still think it would be worth it. He'd get 15+ goals we get a respectable 10th or so. The difference in our finishing postion would pay for $1m of the price.
What about N'Gog for $4.5m? He's 22 and we get to keep/on-sell him. Plus he'd score 10 goals and we'd stay up.

Vermin is down for the Arse, not a long way to fall from 5ft10 but he's injured and the pressure is on Wenger from the increasingly irate Arsenal fans - some of whom will be old enough to vote soon- to fulfill his end of season promise to buy a famous player in particular a tall central defender. Cahill fits the bill, whereas Jagielka doesn't measure up and Dann doesn't cut it either not being in the premier league or English.

Blackburn Rovers are trying to sell a handful of players in a secret list that reveals the salaries of Steve Kean's unwanted men.

Mystery striker=Kalinic?

Newcastle after Pavyluchenko?

or.. Mertesacker

[Salford Trotter]

it's been suggested before but it sounds like Michael Owen fits the criteria which wouldn't be a bad shout if he stays fit

[mighty_whites]

Owen would be an amazing signing! Doubt it very much though, but if he stays fit he'd be dangerous. I do think we still would need another striker and a winger! but one step at a time eh! COYWM

Hmmm... 2 years - 30 appearances (not many as a starter) - 5 goals... are we sure he still has it?

[ChrisC]

Can't see it being Michael Owen, if united wanted rid they wouldn't have give him a new contract at the end of last season.

[Lord Kangana]

He's not had it for years. I don't care what platitudes are thrown his way, if you need him to play consistently then you're f*cked.

[David Lee's Hair]

I'd like any of our strikers to not have it and average a goal every 3 games.... As he's managed the last 5 seasons or so...

[Salford Trotter]

"Not financially crippling"

I don't believe he would be, at 32 he's probably looking at his last contract at the top level and would relish regular first team football and with Wellbeck not out on loan this season he is likely to be 4th or 5th choice striker for MU.
