Ahh righto
Interesting rumour today, Villa want Bentley, Spurs are willing to let him go along with Jenas for Ashley Young.
Also Valdano at Madrid has conceded defeat in his attempt to sign David Villa. I can't see Liverpool having the cash for him even though Torres wants him there. Not sure I can see him coming to Utd either but maybe he will go to Barca if they are willing to pay the reported £35m fee.

| Just read on the Echo site the Johnson bid was £17m, but if we are to pay them money it will be much less due to money still being owed for the Crouch deal.
Not quite sure how that works out on this summer's budget, but I'm glad we're investing in positions where we require top quality players, instead of signing somebody like Tevez, who would be a waste of money, I feel.

I can't believe that I think £35m is a steal, but after the way this summer's started with Real going a bit loopy, it is.

That's a great price, I'd snap their hands off for that.
Chelsea, Barcelona and Manchester United have all asked Bayern about Ribery BTW. Chelsea have had their bid rejected.

That was the reported figure the Madrid had offered and Barca were offering £10m less. I said on here yesterday if Fergie really fancies him and Silva then with Valencia having to raise some serious cash why not make a double offer of say £60m and try and get both of em?

| Real know Valencia need to sell, so by saying they give up it kind of puts Valencia in a tricky position, they need to sell Villa and with there only being a few parties who can afford him, they need all the interest they can get. I still think Real will get him.

In this morning's paper that Madrid have cooled their interest in Villa leaving two likely clubs interested.... Barça and United. Article says Valencia would prefer to see Villa playing outside La Liga.

Funnily enough one of the Spanish newspapers match report read something like

| I still think Villa will head to Madrid tbh . They also have the option to put Negredo in with the deal aswell tbh which may work in Reals favour.
Villa has come out and said that he wants to stay in Spain and apparently has the final say on the matter. Barca or Madrid are his most likely destinations imo.
I also expect Ribery to stay put at Bayern or sign for Madrid, again possibly throwing in VDV/Sneijder in with the deal also.

€43-45 million cash or €30 million plus Negredo.
Valencia are not interested in the €30 million plus Negredo as Negredo would only be on loan and let's face it He's not worth €15 million, especially not when he'll walk away at the end of the season.
The noises coming out of the media here seem to suggest it's swinging in favour of Barça.

If Madrid pull out of the race to sign Valencia leaving United as the sole interested party, surely that plays into the hands of United.
The lad has said he wants to move and Dave Whelan has acknowledged this, saying he won't stand in his way as long as the offer is satisfactory.
With only one club still in for him there's no chance of a bidding war, something United really couldn't win.

Like I said, if that's what they think they're worth then so be it.
With shirt sales and merchandising and all the other spin-offs that will entail from those two signings I'm sure they'll get plenty of that back.
Could you say the same for Valencia?

Woah, hang on. I'm on about Valencia's (the clubs) asking price for Villa, not Valencia the player! As far as I'm concerned, Madrid haven't said much on Antonio Valencia, but have revealed (apparently) that they may end their interest in Valencia's ( ) David Villa.
I'm confused now.

| It's a kind of sticky situation. Valencia aren't mugs and they know Madrid have stupendous amounts to spend, they know Perez wants Villa a lot, and they know there are other interested parties, however, Valencia do have time on their side, but they can't play hardball all summer, because they [ihave[/i to sell him. They're obviously pumping the fee up, but now Madrid have said they're not interested, and they have all summer to try and sign Benzema, it may just force Valencia to give up.
Problem with Madrid and their players is, other clubs know they also have to sell players. They have too many players at the club, I'm pretty sure there's a rule that they can only have 25 players in the squad, and they're currently over that. Players like Robben and Sneijder will all command hefty fees, but the sides interested know they can bide their time and force Madrid to drop the fee.
I'm glad they've dropped interest in Alonso. See, things are different with us, Alonso is under a lengthy contract and we don't need to sell at all, so only something stupendous will force our hand, something I don't think Madrid are willing to do for a player who won't bring as much in return in terms of shirt sales and so on.
