Morning Paper Talk features a few bits & pieces about players we've been linked with in the past... - Everton are considering signing Rafa Silva for £8m - Drogba rumoured to be heading to Juventus (Does this end their interest in Dani?) - Liverpool to wait unti next month to try and sign Caulker - Spurs eyeing moves for Lukaku & Lovren - Utd have failed to agree a fee with Luke Shaw (Not sure that's new news!)

Things like that are a recurring problem - Remember that skate reporter who tweeted something about Poch staying? The blew up so much it even got in the papers that he would sign a new contract & stay.

Cheers Bats. "What a joke." "Pathetic." "Utter disgrace" "Gutted" "I could f*cking cry"

I would imagine WBA forums are in meltdown.

Glad we beat Huddersfield to Lambert.

He looks bloody good... ....and we have no strikers.

Massive boost IMO.

Word came from a very good "ITK" poster. Post #736

Obviously want him to stay, but if he's going to go I'll be delighted if he goes to Barcelona instead of Liverpool.

Yeah, we are absolutely going to need 2 strikers. Will be interesting to see what formation Koeman will favour. With Rickie gone, Osvaldo certain to leave, Lallana likely to go & J-rod missing through injury we need to re-build our whole attack.

Everton sniffing around him apparently

There we go!!!

1) Club announce friendly against good European team. 2) People complain on here about it. Good game IMO.

If Barca throw in Pedro or Tello we can talk.

I imagine Ajax would've blabbed if we approached them for FdB.

Jeremy Wilson reporting that Arsenal are ready to take up their option and re-sign Carlos Vela for £3.25M and then might sell him to another club (or then sell him back to Sociedad) Pretty slick move. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/arsenal/10895818/Arsenal-in-talks-to-re-sign-Carlos-Vela-from-Real-Sociedad.html

Chelsea sign Fabregas. Time to make a cheeky loan offer for Piazon?

I remember Adam Blackmore mentioning that he believed we rejected a 15m bid from Liverpool for him. At least the value is getting slightly more realistic - I remember people saying he was an 8m target for them - How the hell could he NOT have gone up in value

Good shout. http://www.turkish-football.com/news_read.php?id=6004

Yep.

LOL. This can't be a saintsweb spotting of a manager out in town without providing a terribly blurry photo.

My source told me "sooner rather than later" (But then my source was Les Reed in that youtube video from last night )

Mancini just left Galatasaray apparently. *Apologies to thorpie who posted it above.

Perhaps I'm easily pleased - I really enjoyed that interview.

Isn't he out of contract next year too?
