    Butland does not want to move to Chelsea, as he is not guaranteed 1st team football. To be honest he is not good enough yet for 1st team football at any PL club. It is best for his career if he stays where he is, getting 1st team football. A move to Chelsea would destroy his potential.

    (May be old news)

    Manager Brian McDermott has confirmed the club have made an offer for Blackpool's Tom Ince and is confident of a deal going through.

    Turnbull hasn't looked great, haven't seen much of Butland either though.

    If Chelsea did want a young keeper why not recall Courtois. Absolutely pointless him going there, as Cech has years left and Courtois is better at the moment. Unless he goes on loan to another club his development will stall and may not turn into the mighty goalkeeper England are hoping.


    The problem is that courtois is too good to sit on the bench and cech is too good to be dropped so there is just not room for both. Chelsea may use courtois in any deal to bring in falcao in the summer.

    Letting Courtois go would be criminal on Chelsea's part. He is the best goalkeeper in Spain this season (with an honourable mention to that unfortunately named genltleman Willy Caballero) and is only 20 years old.

    He is going to be one of the top 3 in the world very soon, and in a position that is very often lacking in quality options.

    It looks very like Chris Samba is on his way to QPR.
    Could be a good signing for them

    That would be a good replacement for Nelsen.

    I want! I want! I want! Man Utd to raid Real Madrid for Khedira, Ozil and Coentrao. They can have Rooney.

    Leroy Fer not signing for Everton, deal off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    Stoke have made an inquiry about Jack Butland,that's about 6 EPL clubs so far.He has turned down Chelsea.

    Something came up in the medical. With our money issues we can't take the risk.

    It's very funny how rumors on twitter get started.

    Estate Agent(Arsenal fan):"So get a call from an Agent today to find a house for a player, not allowed to nae him but he is going to them lot and it's a biggie gutted"

    Subsequent messages from Spurs fan laughing at Arsenal and messages from Arsenal fans threathening blue murder and demanding wenger out.

    All this because a guy on twitter writes a sentence .......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,510 ✭✭✭sprinkles


    I don't get that. Is it supposedly an Arsenal player moving to Spurs? If that's the case why would he need a new house? And if it's not why are the Arsenal supporters getting all worked up?

    No it's not an Arsenal player but most Arsenal fans are annoyed at a lack of transfer activity.

    So how many deals will actually go through tomorrow?
    1-3?
    4-6?
    7-10?

    Im guessing at 1 big name and 1 "WHO??" signing, a lot of Sky presenters getting people excited over nothing and the BabelCopter to be spotted at least once.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb


    Is Sky setting up base at Loftus Rd?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 454 ✭✭Israel_Dagg


    "Apparantly" Villa wants to go to Arsenal but Barca won't let him go.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 454 ✭✭Israel_Dagg


    Also I'm sure ye know but the Everton deal for Fer is off and Sky say QPR have activated Chris Sambas release clause.

    At 12, anytime after that I'll let the night crew look after it ;)

    Stoke are always good for a transfer or two on Deadline Day. Pulis giving a player a tour of the training ground, and SSN's Rob Dorsett getting mobbed by Stoke fans.
