"I saw Alan Pardew say he won't buy British players because they're too expensive," Deeney told BBC Three Counties Radio.

"That's one club you're already out of, plus the top six sides. So you've only got 13 teams left to choose from."

When it comes to astoundingly average all-round midfield players Cleverly certainly represents an upgrade on the present incumbent Ashley Westwood. We'll have. £8 mil though, idk

For an "England international" it's pretty reasonable. I've really grown to hate the fucker but he'll probably do alright at Villa. Hull and Everton want a piece too though

Yeah I was seeing Hull being mentioned. Not really concerned about the idea of Tom Cleverly being worth 8 million, I wasn't being facetious when I said he would be a step up from Ashley Westwood.

Problem is that if one is to believe every report everywhere about Lerner's commitment to the club and the current state of our finances, that £8 million squids is probably the whole remainder of the budget. We need a new centre back and a creative presence in the three quarters, not another midfielder with an accomplished sideways pass. W/e, Tom Cleverly / Fabian Delph as the next England midfield imo

Tbf to Deeney, it's not as though he's setting his own price. In this market, if Ross McCormack's £11m and Rhodes is £16m, Watford will most likely value him in that bracket too. And no-one's paying that.

Leicester have signed Esteban Cambiasso.

rare instance of Owen being kinda otm

i'm certain that Rovers just didn't wanna sell Rhodes and wd've kept bumping the "price" until City got bored. Cleverley genuinely feels like Villa have stepped backwards

Monaco have apparently taken a €40m hit on Falcao. It's being reported that he'll sign for Madrid today.

He looks a long, long way from being at his best at the moment.

IDS and the laughing clowns of the ConDem-olition are guilty of more than hatred of the disabled and poor. They're guilty of crimes against the Crown and State and all they've ever stood for by their actions.

Yes, guilty of treason. And no government of mine.

possibly the wrong thread

u have transferred us that banter

yeah i'm still disgusted with us hiring hoddle too

p sure it's the sole reason god is back to hating us again tbh. rip ale faurlin :(

Un accord a été trouvé entre le #MHSC et @SpursOfficial pour le transfert de @BenjiStambouli

another central midfielder...

Saphir Taider loaned to Southampton from Inter just 3 weeks ago, has just been loaned to Sassuolo instead, totally bizarre.

Daley Blind to ManU for €18m apparantly.

what does it all even mean anymore

i think it's that thing when a manager panics because the squad he's taken on is fucking shit so he buys a whole new squad but then it's still fucking shit because they haven't had time to develop as a team unit, you shd be familiar with the concept darragh

take it to the coworkers thread tbf

what does it all even mean anymore

Loan agreed for Falcao at Mufc

Woah.

RIP RvP.

Apparently RVP has been putting off a knee operation so it actually makes a sort of sense. Still though, mental

snatches him away from city too. guess that welbeck & lil p are definitely out the door then?

No rhyme or reason to United transfer policy at all any more but still... Falcao.

Hernandez and Welbeck both supposedly going but only on loan

still not as wtf as micah richards to fiorentina

this falcao business kinda takes me back to all those "crespo/batistuta/salas to utd??!!?!?" clubcall teletext adverts that never happened in the 90s

Falcao loan fee no more than £9m and #mufc have option for permanent deal

Having seen Falcao play three times this season, i'd rather have RVP tbqh. He looks slow and has contributed next to nothing to any of Monaco's performances, other than a nicely taken header last week. If they're confident they can get him fit, then great, but even if tyey're just covering his €20m wages, it's a gamble.

find it hard to believe lvg asked for falcao tbh, might be a mario gomez situation in the offing

how bout these dumbasses just buy kondogbia or toulalan instead imagine that

still over twelve hours left. This could be a deadline day for the ages

Might mean Soldado to Monaco as a replacement as well, its the kind of big first domino transfer you want out of the way early.

He looks slow and has contributed next to nothing to any of Monaco's performances, other than a nicely taken header last week.

Exactly the same as RVP as then. Minus the nicely taken header

xxp think you'll find it's called buy people from spurs day

don't forget Toronto FC

ryan nelsen can still do a job, don't h8
