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

idk will it tbh

Carroll, Thomas James
Carroll, Andrew Thomas

I'm going to see Arsenal next week, I'm gonna make the tweeest banner

and sign it 'deems'

from what I can tell based on the tweets that were RTed into my timeline, Arsenal Gent really likes his "haha Tottenham is full of poor people" "jokes". he's a dick.

"I didn't think in any moment about leaving QPR," Cesar, who made 26 appearances last season, was quoted by Globo Esporte at a press conference.

"Of course, if anything came up, as it happened, it was something to sit down and talk about with the club's chairman.

"But, in my head, things have gone back to normal.

"I don't think I'll have to do anything different due to the fact I am in the Championship. It's a strong competition in England with competitive teams.

"We play 46 games, eight more games than in the Premier League."

buzza lightyear

The issue of Thiago Alcântara also needs clearing up. In his case, it has been portrayed as him snubbing United for Bayern Munich when the truth is actually that Moyes decided he was not entirely comfortable going for the Barcelona player.

fuckboy danny taylor does his masters bidding again

probably some of it is true but an entire article of barely palliated special pleading from the old trafford press office is not a good way to do things

now now, we all know he's a diehard nottm forest fan really

i cannot remember who i was listening to on the radio last night but they were suggesting that Moyes' rep for dithering over big transfers went back to Everton days and that the closer he got to a deal the more he started to flap about whether the player was right. looks like the lad's choked tbh.

Charlton Athletic right-back Chris Solly, 22, has signed a new four-year contract with the Championship club.

That's full circle, we can lock this now

nice story, nicely written.

Gah, you beat me to it - absolutely brilliant

yep

"I just hit it," he says with a shrug. "I hit it like nothing else. Know what I mean? I belted it." The ball whistled low, past the outstretched hand of the Oxford goalkeeper, and ran into the bottom corner of the goal. Steve says he wheeled away in celebration, arms extended, head bent with disbelief. On the side of the field, Redknapp turned around and looked briefly to the heavens.

"It was like time stopped still – it was the greatest moment of my life," says Steve. Somewhere in the crowd, Bazza and Chunk were losing their minds. Steve Davies had scored on his West Ham debut.

i lost it a little bit here, i gotta admit

That is absolutely great.

I know, I actually grinned at that bit.

I love the bit about the Steves and their Kellys.

Almost missed the kick-off! Pregnancy tsh.

Brings back the Joey Beauchamp memories too.

yeah that was good

I guess a film treatment would have to end with him beheading the linesman.

Great pictures here - these are like the opposite of the @ArsenalGents of this world

Do you live near Highbury, IK?

The host was this guy, Geraint Hughes. He spent much of the early evening with his phone locked to his ear, speaking to club representatives in a slightly-too-loud manner that reminded me of when my mum used to pretend to call Father Christmas to tell him not to bother this year.

do vice writers get paid by the simile

No I don't - I'm not in London anymore and I only ever lived south of the river anyway. Up that way has always been impossibly exotic.

that pic is giving me weird nostalgia vibes

shit, the more i look at that pic the truer that gets i gotta get out of this office

i hadnt really realised that eriksen is only a couple of months older than tom carroll (and is apparently just as feeble physically). wheel in the daily mail soapbox

is there a thread for the League Cup? Giggs and Jones in midfield tonight. Should be a laugh

needs a title, quick

i'm going to miss the whole thing anyway. Dreading what I'll discover when I check the result

should make last year's thread a rolling one, imo. it only has 500 posts, last year's prem thread has over 10K

I'm going to miss the whole thing anyway. Dreading what I'll discover when I check the result: Capital One Cup 2013/14 thread
