That happened yesterday or a day before yesterday! Today Inler himself reiterated his position, that's all.

Berbatov will certainly be a good acquisition for us since he not only scores but also has tremendous vision and can create a lot of chances

In the zone

Now
Manu have signed Berba for $30.75million
and here is the real shocker
Roinho to Mancity, good lord, what happened here?!!....I really feel for Chelsea!!
As for Arsenal, looks like wenger is still content with putting infants in the CMF.
Interesting season we have, mouth watering!

Robinho joining City was a surprise !!! his intention was to quit Real at any cost n he did it... City suddenly got money from the stars .. they r gona spend much more in the Jan transfer and nxt summer.
Coming to scholari's reign so far and the Chelsea top brass. The top brass is now clearly looking to cut their expenditure (whether they make profit or not) which is evident from the fact that they have trimmed the squad way too much for comfort. Cutting expenditure doesnt mean you leave gaping holes in crucial positions.
With jus a couple of injuries we were struggling the other day to keep pace with the opposition coupled with some poor passing a ball control. Also, Belletti was playing out of position and mid-field looked completely out of sorts.
By december, i bet Ballack n Deco wud wear out will play only at 70% potential and we will struggle against good opposition.
and where are the strikers?? Drogba??? (ERRATIC) Anelka/Kalou ??? (cant finish from 10 yards out)
if Scholari is sensible enough he will have to rotate Ballack and Deco and keep them fresh for stronger opposition and intelligently switch between 4-4-2 and 4-3-3 formations. He must use Sinclair and the new boy Paim frequently who are quicker than the current trio of Kalou/Malouda/J.Cole.
the mid-field is important as it is from the mid-field where the goals are going to come this season with Anelka n Drogs way too erratic. wonder whether di santo wud get enough chances to prove his worth.

Well, Robinho cannot play in the champions league now.

32 Million for a player hardly worth 15 million pounds is insane.Man City has raised the insanity bar set by Chelsea.
So the window has closed and still no DM we may well be fked.We needed more signings than anyone.The midfield is really weak this season.

Robinho did the same thing when Madrid bullied Santos to sell him to them as though Madrid has the sole right to buy him in the world. He will alwys be a fringe player as he is over-rated( i am not saying this bcoz he went to City) and shoots like a 10 year old, heck even in my PES . Great dribbling skills though.
Here is what Calderon has to say about Robinho

I wonder what personal reasons it might be. Did somebody in the dressing room did something naughty

You still have Denilson as a decent DM
Robinho signs with City
This is not very good. If we lose any of our wingers due to injury then we will have troubles. Especially in the left midfield.
The good thing is that Drogba is back after a knee injury.
Interesting last- minute transfers
Robinho [Real Madrid - Manchester City] £32.5m
Dimitar Berbatov [Tottenham - Manchester United] £30.75m
Marouane Fellaini [Standard Liege - Everton] £15m
Roman Pavlyuchenko [Spartak Moscow - Tottenham] £14m
Vedran Corluka [Manchester City - Tottenham] £8.5m

Back!
SUN says Keegan is already out...
and @beta testing,
of the list of last minute transfers, the most surprising one has to be that of Robinho....poor fella wanted to play for chelsea...but now finds himself playing for Man City... not the move he would have wanted even in his dreams !!!
oh finally Berba has joined United.... a *proper* striker at last
PS :- Saha's move was a last minute on too...wasn't it ??

Keegan out!WHAT THE FUK
Denilson will be really tested against teams like Bolton and Blackburn.I am not sure if he can stand their physical game and cover Fab.

MU had already confirmed Saha's move.
What is surprising that Man City has sold Corluka who was really a top top prospect for the future

Avram Grant (Chelsea manager b4 Scolari, in case you've forgotten him) has been touted to take over as manager of Portsmouth.
