And to think, we were all wishing JC had signed him. Looks like a good body swerve!

 

To be fair, he looked like a proper player at Falkirk.

[Tyrant]

Another player ruined by the Old Firm.

[glasgowdon]

Materazzi is available on a free.

 

Brown, do it.

[Kowalski]

Blimey.

Jesus. If he wants to play football he won't go there.

Owen Hargreaves? Play football?

 

Are you sure you're feeling ok?

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

LMAO, he's having a medical, unless the AFC doc is in charge . . . .

Arsenal about to sign Mertesacker from Bremen, good, solid CB.

Huns reject £6.5 mill for Jelavic.

I think Jelavic is a good player but cant believe der hun think they are going to get more for him

Not sure about Mertesacker. They're signing Clint Dempsey too. I think Wenger has genuinely lost his mind, or else he's just royally taking the piss.

My gooner colleague said he thought Mertesacker was a bit slow, but I said he's still better than what they've got! Where did you hear about Clint Dempsey though?!

Well now I check it, goal.com is the original sourch which makes me less than 100% confident of truth. They're a terrible bunch of "journalists" there. Tend to make shit up out of thin air.

Sounds like plain ordinary "journalists" then.

Oh never! If anything the News International scandal shows journalists prefer NOT to make things up...

 

Sports journalism works a bit differently though. Managers, boards, agents and players constantly lie to the press meaning much of the stuff printed is utter charlie allen (even if there ARE quotes).

So on the one hand we have dishonesty and on the other we have no morals or ethics. Awesome.

 

But Mertesacker looked ok to me at the world cup, much better than what Arsenal have and there's no too many sprinters at CB. He's been bought primarily as a ball winner I'd have thought.

He cant be any worse than Djourou and Kosnilensky

Second bid of £8m being made allegedly 

 

Can't see them turning that down.

 

The filth will be fuming if they accept it as it'll prove they are simply a selling club like the rest of us

[glasgowdon]

Barcodes sign Santon from Inter on a 5 year deal.

 

 

Marquee signings don't usually do so well at NUFC though.

[manc_don]

Keisuke Honda to Arsenal apparently. Would be a shrewd signing imo, really rate him as a player.

Good box to box player with a fantastic engine.  Very reliable.

[glasgow sheep]

There's going to be a lot of this shit today isn't there.

From the beeb:

 

WGoodspeed on Twitter: "Just spotted Michael Owen walking down Easter Road in Edinburgh. Late festival goer? Or Hibernian FC fan???"

Can see him changing through the gears when he goes box to box. Good player though
