Speculation:
Sky Sports sources understand Argentine striker Denis Stracqualursi :shock: Who? is undergoing a medical at Everton - he could replace Jermaine Beckford, who is a target for Leicester City.
I know, I said I wasn't gonna watch or check anything but Everton may sign someone.
Anyone will do. Is Emile Heskey available ???? :mrgreen:

Tick Tock Tick Tock.

Spurs again do last minute business. Crazy Crazy Crazy leaving it to the last day- Scott Parker joins.

Will he or won't he go, Modric, that is :D

Even stranger than Hargreaves/Mansheiky is Joe Cole going to Lille, and being allowed to commute.

Getting rid of most of our deadwood, Poulson has also gone. 8)

Arteta,Cahill,Benayoun to Arsenal? All good players.

Crouch to Stoke for £10 million, Jesus wept!

Bellamy back to Anfield? I'll be happy with that.

Parker to Spurs is a good move.

What time will Jim White explode?

How long until Redknapp is hanging out of his car window?

Good old deadline day! :mrgreen:

There we go! Interviewed through his car window telling the world about his clubs business, Chelseas £40 mill bid etc.

Can you imagine Dalglish, Ferguson or Wenger doing that?

Dalglish preaches the mantra that the press will hear any business if and when it's done.

Redknapp is an amateur media whore, a cringeworthy cockney caricature!

Bellamy for Liverpool, eh? Fair enough on a freebie and as cover, I suppose. I imagine he'll be playing a lot of Carling Cup-type games though!
(10 million for Crouch, not bad!)

Really crazy, Cannot believe we did so much getting rid business on the last day. Nice deal to sell Crouch though.

We kept Modric which was good and surprised many, he may not be the same player after that escapade but a line has been drawn, signed an on loan striker in Adebayor, signed Scott Parker. The steel of the side are injured. Me now thinks worrying times ahead until the treatment room is less congested, hope I'm wrong :(

Not bad for Spurs.

I know who'd I'd prefer. It was only a year ago that Bellamy was ripping United a new one.

I don't imagine he'll be facing United very often.
The Crouch comment was in passing, not a comparison, and from a Spurs viewpoint.
And genuine good luck to him.

Yeah he's sound Crouchie, just saying Spuds did well to get £10 million for a player that turns 31 in January.

Now Arteta has gone we have replaced his song with this:
No dough, no dough, no dough,
Everton is the team with no dough,
An' it's not even funny, that we've got no money,
So all we can do is borrow...

Also
Sky Sports News had confirmed Everton were in talks with the Samaritans!!

So Bendtner's gone off on loan and vows never to return to Arsenal.
There seems to be a fairly unanimous shrug of the shoulders from the Emirates.
But I had no idea he was still only 23!
He might be one of those players who benefits from a move.

Getting him to move around the pitch would be an improvement

Are you Arsenal lads happy with your transfer business or what?

Not a bad last day but it looked like 2 steps back 1 forward to me.

I'm delighted with ours, Spuds should be too.

I won't mention Lee and Everton!
