Bewildered

Targett has been very unimpressive IMO

2-1 Chelsea Our passing and defending is diabolical at the moment

Any prediction worse than 38 consecutive 4-0 wins conclusively shows that the media have it in for us.

oops, got the two mixed up.

Maybe he was upset that there would be no monkey chicken petting zoo in the concept art for the possible new stadium.

Have Benfica managed to sell Cardozo yet? Might be worth a punt albeit a costly one given his age. Demba Ba is still available and unlikely to be needed at Chelsea Lacina Traore of Anzhi, who are looking to sell off anyone that will bring in money. Halfedsson from Heerenveen was linked not too long ago

Anthony Wright ‏@asroma_uk 28m Sportmediaset - Tottenham have offered €15m for Pablo Osvaldo, less than Southampton's €18m but Osvaldo more inclined to join Spurs #asroma

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri 9m Twist in Inter story:indonesian billionaire Thohir officially saying it's his brother not him in Milan;no take over happening in this window Hard to see Inter offering big wages or fee if their takeover is not going to be completed in time.

Yeah, I saw Lovren to Saints reported by the mail a week or two before it happened. As for Osvaldo http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2892/transfer-zone/2013/08/16/4190404/

http://www.footballtransferleague.co.uk/newspaper_statistics.aspx a site that tries to track the accuracy of newspapers' football reporting. Likely not perfect mind you so take with a grain of salt.

Can't see any PL club chancing it on Guidetti after he suffered a career threatening injury last season and has not been given any games in pre-season for City.

Link?

Also have to wonder if Spurs would spend 18m on someone that would likely be second choice behind Soldado.

I'll wait to see what dimarzio and that Pedulla guy that broke the news we were back in for him have to say before writing it off. Of course we won't have to wait too long to see if The Sun are correct.

Shaw and Clyne will be in the squad if they make it through training tomorrow Didn't want to talk about Osvaldo

I wonder if we have someone lined up that will only join if Fox goes.

that's the probalem with online translation. Google translate suggests it could mean Osvaldo succumbed to Southampton Osvaldo yielded to Southampton Osvaldo sold to Southampton Osvaldo transferred to southampton All sound positive. Maybe a speaker can give a more concise translation.

SSN breaking news banner says Darren Bent is having a medical at Fulham today.

Disappointed, but not surprised.

Surely he's put himself in contention to be picked for the qualifiers after that.
