Off Season Puntsphere Rumours.

Sir Alex just hates Saha because he's made out of balsa wood. Each time he comes into contact with something other than the treatment table, he breaks a ligament or something :dry:

I hope he signs Owen. There have been noises about Sir Alex moving Smith back into midfield in a holding role to eventually take over from Roy Keane (maybe sooner rather than later 'cause I think Keane's had it at the top level). I think this is very likely since United have made no moves for midfielders this summer.

Solskjaer is back from injury, apparently, tho' I haven't seen him play for the reserves yet and who knows what he'll be like after 2 years out of the game -- with him and Saha increasingly injury prone, Rooney and RVN need cover.

Owen FTW :01:

Rumor has it that Spurs (Dutch coach Martin Jol) is in the race to buy Dutch national top striker Dirk Kuyt.... Altough Kuyt (Feyenoord Rotterdam) is not for sale.... money can do change things. :cry:

PSV Eindhoven is forcing a transfer for Salomon Kalou (also Feyenoord Rotterdam) they're gonna try to force the transfer by bringing it to court.... :ohmy:

He's out for 4 weeks.

Fecks sake. The bloke is a nightmare.




Why havent Man Utd signed Owen yet :unsure:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...em/4128958.stm

Man Utd and Newcastle in a straight fight for Owen.

Quality :happy:

Can manutd afford him, with the £500,000,000 debt they already have.

Would that be wise for a club in the midst of a financial crisis.

Man Utd should let us have him. You got Rooney over us last season. It's only fair.

Ungrateful sod ... we did sell you Nicky Butt.

Toon Price Putting Wenger Off Jenas
8/8/2005 3:58:00 PM
Arsene Wenger has confirmed his interest in midfielder Jermaine Jenas, but he feels Newcastle are asking for too much for the England international.
Wenger said: "I like Jenas but I’m not intent on any player at the moment.

"When I heard Graeme Souness’ statement a few weeks ago, it was discouraging. He spoke in the region of £20m - we are not interested at that price."

Jenas, who has also been interesting Tottenham, was immediately identified as a possible replacement for Patrick Vieira following the Frenchman's move to Juventus earlier this summer.

Second highest Premiership goal scorer ever. Half a Mars bar to whoever can guess who's number 1 (and the only person to have scored over 200 Premiership goals).

It's gotta be Shearer (hasn't it?), but I didn't know that Kleberson scored that many to be in second place :unsure:

At last, Rio Ferdinand has signed a new contract for Man Utd :01:

I'm going up to watch them tonight against some Hungarian side in the Champions League qualifier -- I bet the crowd still give him stick, for some reason large sections of the OT fans fecking hate him.

I think he's quality but I don't argue with them in the pub before the game :unsure:

Shearer it is, i ate the rest of the Mars bar so tough shit.

I don't know what sport you have been watching but Kleberson has been on fire for the Man Utd Reserves even helping his country get to the World Cup Final for leg-less people :01:

Man Utd seem to be interested in Brazillian defender Cicinho.

The BBC report seems to suggest that if this happens, Gary Neville could be following his brother out of Old Trafford.

No Nevilles at United :ohmy:

Cicinho was amazing at the Confederations Cup, he made 8 assists, 4 coming in the final against Argentina.

Hoi, that's Gheyball talk

Newcastle have said that they're definitely not buying Anelka and their bid for Luis Boa Morte has broken down.

Also their young stiker, Michael Chopra, is injured leaving them woefully short up front for the start of the season.


They'd better pull their finger out.
