More Utd rumours over the weekend.

Eto'o £25m

Costa £20m

Ibrahimovich to Chelsea for £50m plus Carvalho and Deco.

New City rumour: Adebayor to sign

Don't think it will happen, but we will see.


Strangest rumour: Steven Taylor to Newcastle. Isn't it bad luck to come up with an "April fools" after midday on 1 April?

Do you mean to Chelsea seeng as he's already AT Newcastle???
I saw that Chelsea "rumour" too and couldn't believe it neither

It was so unbelievable, that I couldn't add Chelsea to my post. I love Taylor's attitude but he should not be anywhere near the first team of a club who hope to be in the top 4 and play in the CL.

To potentially replace John Terry with Steven Taylor would be magnificent!! Not that I expect it to happen for one minute, before anyone has a go at me.

John Hartson diagnosed with [url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/scottishpremier/celtic/5815715/John-Hartson-diagnosed-with-brain-cancer.htmlcancer[/url

Thats awful news, hope he can make a full recovery i didnt realise he was 34 I thought he was a bit older than that

SKY sources: City in talks with Adebayor. Seems they fell for that brochure

Seems Rafa was a bit gutted about Barry choosing Citeh, of course Rafa must be wrong...Barry was never a target apparently so obviously a poster on rlfans has more knowledge of the situation.

I rate Adebayor. He's got the tools to be a a top player. He'll never be a Villa, Torres or Driogba, but he can be the top player in the level below that. He would certainly be a very good signing.

He has problems with consistency, and I still think he needs to attack the box a bit more and play on the shoulder of the last defender more often. I also get the feeling that he struggles with Arsenal's style of play at times.

Well, Bailey has been city's press officer for years anyway, they may as well make it official.

I agree with your point though, the M.E.N. is just as biased about United based stories. It doesn't make Bailey less of a crap journalist though. Which is presumably one of the reasons he isn't going to do it any more.

Dont rate Adebayor at all to big and clumsy can finish but he3s far too inconsitent id rather play Santa Cruz

God I despise Tottenham, Newcastle, Liverpool and Aston Villa.

Every time Everton find a player to bid for these clubs come wading in with a bid. Newcastle in particular were terrible for it and I'm sure the scouts there actually track Everton's scouts rather than identify players themselves.

Spurs are now at it over Naughton. Everton agree a deal, the player is keen and Sheff United agree. Spurs then weigh in with a bigger offer. Nothing wrong with that is there? Not unless you consider that they already have 4 right backs in their squad. What on earth do they need yet another right back for?

One player in Sissoko who was signed by Benitez at Valencia?

Hardly Everton found.

As for Mark, Barry's gone City for the money, there was nothing official regarding us, I don't recall seeing us rejected by Barry, or ever having a bid accepted by Villa for Barry. But even so, how can you justify out top two targets 'rejecting' us for City? Unless you know our top two targets, you can't really say that. I'd say Johnson was our top target considering we've spent £17m on him, we signed him very quickly and Rafa said the other day we won't be signing anymore big big money players.

I'd say your manager is pretty official, also Tevez saying "he won't sign for you"..of course you know best though.

We actually made a bid for him 1st then you came in with a bigger offer. Gutted we missed out on him though, no really, he was class.

Michael Owen in Bryan Robson's shirt?

Of course you would twist and manipulate things to support your argument.

Rafa was asked about Barry signing for City, he said he's gone for the money, but that means he rejected us to sign for City?

Tevez said he wouldn't sign for Liverpool because he has too much respect, nice one, but he also came out weeks before that saying he'll sign for any of Man Utd's rivals, listing Arsenal, Chelsea, City etc., does that mean they made a bid for him as well?

I'd rather Sissoko at £5m than Fellaini at £15m

, Sissoko couldn't pass or shot, but he was an absolute animal in the midfield.

Just a sidenote Mark, what's with this and the DTTW clique having Beagle avatars?

Rafa also said he was a summer target, but again you know best. Tevez agent also confirmed Liverpools interest, I might write to SSN and tell them to ignore managers, agents etc and got straight to LFC fans on this forum as you clearly know more.

I am Fellani's biggest critic and the singing of him so I've got that one don't you worry.

But top be fair Fella has given us more back in terms of goals in a season than Momo did it 2 or 3 years at your gaffe.
