"We've momentum and we can't afford to lose it tbh"- The '13-'14 summer transfer window thread for PL and beyond

not sure i like the look of this new mike leigh trailer

lol Nev with his shirt tucked in

butt looks like shearer after a few years of poor health.

it ends in gnev's teletubby house

gnev is in tears that becks doesnt acknowledge his ripped jeans. it all comes out

pnev the former butt of jokes is now quite together and professional, no one knows how to act least of all nicky butt who is covered in the taxi driver's blood he glassed on the way in an inexplicably outburst of fury. he sits shaking and glaring

scholsey is dead having mistakenly drunk an mcat laced cup of tea intended by the rest of lads as nasty bants to take becks down a peg

giggsy as a result feels his first ever emotion, shame at shagging the lifeless scholesy's missus

they place the little ginger body in the house's great inbuilt recycling contraption and vow never to speak of this night again

becks smiles blankly through it all

you have to hand it to becks looking at that. he got out while he could.

Giggs is kidding himself hanging about with that lot. He's like Bill Wyman with the Stones.

hope somebody's picking up Scholesy's kids

Beckham's top button is really annoying me

Gnevs paunch came on rapid huh

Scholesy appears to have broken his leg v badly

Lawrence Inquiry not drawing the crowds this time around

first thing I thought of when seeing that was

Can't really knock chris benthers for wanting to get the hell out of dodge. Signs for 7 mil, scores a ton of goals, keeps us up & makes us a tidy profit on the way put the door - it's the stuff feeder club dreams are made of.

Just hope Lerner can somehow hardman his way to 20 milyun squids for the guy

Altidore to Sundlund for 13 million apparently

“I have not had any problems with my teammates and I feel fine here. But when you get the possibility to play somewhere else, you always have to think about it.”

i love this jozy quote. somewhere, anywhere else.

Woosh, at £13 million he doesn't look like much of a bargain, is he worth it? My only knowledge of Altidore is of that period where he played at Hull City for a bit.

He's improved a lot but that's too much.

it's being reported as dollars not pounds, but it's still way too much.

Yeah sorry, that's dollars.

He has improved quite a bit since Hull, scored 31 for AZ last season and a bunch the year before that, but I still think he could use more time in the Netherlands or somewhere similar. He's not a do-it-alone type of forward yet, he still relies on good service for most of his goals.

Sunderland sign £6m Altidore

even that is pushing it

if its $13m then di canio is no better than o'neill

Listen and you'll hear the sound, it's John Ruddy's heart breaking

Mark Schwarzer's here to stay: Fulham FC 2010-11

That's gotta hurt

Is Tracer the type to burn an effigy? I'm hearing riots in Castelnau as we speak.

Barnes Wetland Centre apparently ablaze

That reunion photo - I'm now imagining PNev's first day coaching consisting entirely of him repeatedly taking selfies of himself sat next to a Man Utd mousemat in his office.

What's happened here? Are hair transplants made out of henna?

he looks about 47

Anyone know about Leory Fer (who Norwich're signing)?

I know that that's the worst apostrophised elision of all time

Its a cure not a fucking miracle

Don't listen to'm Dwight, I liked it.

Dear Toffees,

The rumours that are making the rounds on your side of the sea right now, regarding your newest signing Leroy Fer of Twente, are entirely true. Fer indeed once bought his girlfriend a horse, only to realise later that his girlfriend lives in an appartment with a drafty balcony and does not have room for a horse. So he sold the horse again.

That is all,

Sincerely,

Leroy Fer to Everton fell through

Dutch press is saying there was a deal with Everton, but apparantly there's excess fluid in his knee. Everton still wanted him after this, but wanted to pay less than first agreed. Twente said no to that: end of story.

Sour grapes for Filip Djuricic from Heerenveen who was going to replace Fer at Twente.

Only five months ago, how soon we forget.

Internacional coach Dunga has played down the prospect of the club re-signing Nilmar.

"Any club would have Nilmar," he told reporters at a press conference. "But it would be very difficult if we dreamt of signing him, and he did not arrive. The trauma would be higher."

"It really is quite sad and a kick in the teeth for Paul [Lambert]," Gregory told The Birmingham Mail.

"When Dwight [Yorke] told me he didn't want to play for Villa anymore I was like: "Whaaatttt?" Paul will feel the same, I'm sure."

so what do we think of Nacer Chadli?

He has looked good every time I've seen him. Could play either side in a 4-3-3.

AIN'T NO PARTY LIKE A CARLO NASH PARTY COS A CARLO NASH PARTY DONNNNNNNN'TTTT STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

I gather Wanyama's pretty good, but £12.5m seems awfully pricey?

I think that might just be the way we get business done now. £7m Rodriguez, £12m Ramirez... If we want them, then we tend to move in big. Sort of anti-Moneyball, in a way - we are very keen to let people know that we are Of Means.

think i remember another club like that

Kone, Alcaraz and Robles all at Everton now
