Delighted my team was part of something to bring you happiness.

You would wonder why City winning the league would matter to a QPR fan, but then again, everybody has an opinion when it comes to United, it is what comes of being the biggest team in the country, no such things a neutral for the also rans/cannon fodder

It was a retort to your post on hoping QPR were relegated. You see, I actually like to watch UTD, it's having to listen to the majority of their support base waffle on that irks me. Most of the lads I know that have supported them from old are genuine supporters. Its the lads that have learnt about football on the playstation and watching/listening to sky sports that winds up people.

So in a nutshell its the support base that turns people off UTD not the team.

Looks like Al Gharafa in Qatar. They have the weirdest team, no idea why they'd be moving for another striker. They have a defence and defensive midfield made up entirely up players from Qatar, then an attacking midfield and forward line stocked with recent Brazil internationals, as well as Afonso Alves and Mark Bresciano, not to mention having just bought Nene who will tear that league apart with his eyes closed. Just makes so little sense to be fielding no-hoper players in the defensive half of the field, while having stars on the bench for the front half.

Its not about good football - its about goals! Lots of goals.

But they already have Afonso Alves, and if Football Manager 2006 is anything to go by, then goals will be no problem.

Hahah I think the reason for halving the defense, keeper as qataris is that the teams have to have a minimum amount of players from Qatar in the starting 11.

Looks like Kaka is going back to Milan.

Guardiola want's Suarez & Falcao at Bayern & his former team Barca want Peipe Reina to replace Valdes next season.

Diame could be on his way from West Ham to Arsenal & PSG are considering a 'swap' with Carlo Ancelotti taking over Arsenal & Wenger heading to PSG.

Once again Tevez has decided that he wants to go home & says he wants to join Boca when his current deal at City runs out.

It's good of PSG to consider a swap, not only do they want to hire Arsenals manager they want to appoint his replacement.

Seriously how to people read this sh*t!

Had a laugh at that myself,the best bit was the £30 million they are offering Wenger.

Wonder how much they'll offer Ancelloti to manage Arsenal

FC Internazionale profesyonel oyuncularından Wesley Sneijder'in transferi için Kulübü ve oyuncunun kendisiyle mutabakata varılmıştır.

Which roughly translates to Sneijder to Inter is done. Well more or less.

Diame would be another embarrassing signing. Even Allardyce himself said he wasnt good enough for us. No doubt we'll sign him so.

He didn't say that, he said this:

He told reporters: "You are always worried about losing players but we have not had a bid from Arsenal for Mo Diame. I can't see where he would fit into their side."

Which is different.

Sneijder to Galatasaray is weird, has he really dropped that much in quality last 2 years or so?

Is Leonard Cohen a Galatasaray fan?

AC Milan News ‏@Milanello

The meeting between Galliani and Kakà's agent is over. Kakà is willing to accept €6m per year, acc. to GdS. Milan's initial offer was €5m.

Rekop dog

Looks like Kaka to Milan is almost done. He's apparently willing to accept 6 million a year.

I'm ridiculously excited.

15% tax rate means they can offer him 100K a week, a lot more than anyone else offered. 2/3 years there, then finish his career in Holland...

Frazier Campbell has joined Cardiff on a 3 and half year deal for an undisclosed fee. Good move for him, he will be back in the PL in a few months. Cardiff have another striker to ensure they will be going up.

Red Crow

So I assume Milan have reversed their previously 'new' transfer policy.

He's a shadow of the player that absolutely destroyed Manchester United in the CL. That seems an age away now.

He never really turned up at Madrid , not the first player that has happend to either but I'm sure he will do better back at Milan.

Similar to Nuri Sahin , big profile move from Dortmund to Madrid and no doubt the lad is quality but just never settled into the team, went to Liverpool never really got a chance and now back at Dortmund on a 16 month loan - I guarantee he'll find his form again there.

Modric another one - not happening for him in Spain.

Ed Winchester

It's not a big surprise to me that Modric has flopped in Spain. Always thought he was way over-rated. Looked ok at Spurs, never a star at a club like RM.

Unfortunately, Galliani has now said that talks have broken down.

I may be in denial but still harbour some hope before the window closes. Also lol at mentioning Sahin and Modric in the same breathe as Kaka.

Looks like it M'Vila might be off to Rubin Kazan. The money in Russia really seems to be talking these days.

Another black player to get abused for millions a year while running about in the cold of a concrete bowl.
