EPL Transfer gossip

I see that Robbie Keane has handed in a transfer request to hurry a move to Liverpool.
Deco joins Chelsea, making Lamps move a bit more likely (but I doubt it'll happen).
Xavi Alonso has said he won't make a decision for a month, meaning Pool won't have any money to make transfers anyway. How rude of him..
I love this team for football rumours.

I certainly care, and if you don't - seeya!

Marc.. his name is Xabi (not Xavi) and it seems all that is being waited on is Juventus to finally agree to cough up the right amount of cash.
Deco in the EPL is an interesting one, I dunno how he will go adapting to having much less time on the ball.
Robbie Keane in for Crouch at Liverpool... I would prefer to keep crouch and offload Voronin but all the same I'd be happy with him being there.
Lampard is over-rated. I call him 'Mr Deflection'.

I knew it was Xabi, but it was late last night. Didn't his brother move to Bolton so they could play in the same league, now Xabi wants to do a runner.. LOL
Voronin was GOLD in my Football Manager game.. Free transfer, 28 goals in his first season.

I'll be really interested to see if the Buck-Toothed Ronnie comes to the EPL too.

I remember there being huge wraps on both Robinho & Martins when they joined Real.. there was a poll on TWG about Martins being better than Rooney.

Might see all 3 in the EPL next season.
Robinho will hand in a transfer request soon I reckon. His agent has spoken out a fair bit, saying Real are treating him badly.

Robinho could well be massive, will all depend on how he takes to being kicked up and down the pitch if he joins the EPL.
I also think Man city have stars in their eyes if they still want to sign Ronaldinho, haven't heard boo about him lately other than he wants to move.
One club I find interesting is Portsmouth, purely because of how their manager (Harry Redknap) has gotten the best out of his players. He's made some absolutely quality signings from other clubs who maybe felt they were past it, but they've gone on to show they can still do the business... David James being a great example.
Will be very interesting to see how Chelsea go as they have a few big names who were playing regularly all wanting out it seems.

I was kinda hoping he'd go somewhere in Spain, he'd absolutely carve them up over there due to having more time on the ball.
Warmer weather certainly wouldn't harm him either.
I don't really know much about the Turkish league other than the fences around the visitors section look a bit like at Guantanamo Bay

Hold the bus!
Looks like Harry hasn't signed for anyone yet. There's an article on foxsports where his manager is saying he's not signed anywhere and he hasn't even been linked with Istanbul since the 2005 Champions League final (which was the best final anywhere ever).
