Modric has said he only wants to play for Real Madrid

Good news for us, More chance of him staying now if Madrid don't match Levy's offer.
 
Levy won't sell Modric to Chelsea.
He would not sell even them a can of baked beans that was just out of date.
He would not sell them anyone or anything remotely useful to them.

They are huge rivals of ours, after the whole Campbell affair I think he will do all he can to prevent that again. I would bet he would sell to Madrid, Milan or even City for less than Chelski or Arsenal.

Not Redknapp hate, just acknowledgement that McCarthy is a decent manager at PL level as is Harry. A decent manager and man motivator, nothing more.

I agree totally with the sentiments of not selling Modric to anyone in England BUT if Man bricky et al offered 50m but Real offered 30m - would you expect Levy to decline 20m extra? Hell would you decline the 20m? 20m? That could be spent on like a top quality striker or for other areas of the squad?

West Ham are advancing in talks with Tottenham over signing William Gallas
Whilst Kieran Richardson is close to being confirmed as a West Ham player, fee of around £2.5million
 
I'll be surprised if we sell Gallas. He has everything a young squad like ours needs; experience, drive and an understanding of how to win effectively.

Plus he's been a completely loyal servant to the club for the past couple of years, hasn't caused any problems at all.

I'd put Willy G with Rafa as two of our most vocal, driven players. Why we'd sell him is a bit of a mystery, unless AVB wants him out.
 
so Chelsea are now linked to Oscar, and were linked to Lewandowski at the weekend...:-k

i very much doubt that they will sell us Sturridge. Just like we refused to sell Modric to them, they will dig their heels in over Sturridge and sell him to anyone but Spurs

Do you really subscribe to that sort of BS? And you do Friedel an injustice. He has been a great keeper, and was a very good keeper for us last season.

I do.
So did Keith Burkinshaw.
Without it we'd have won nothing in 81/82, despite playing some of the best football I've ever seen.
I agree with GB re: Gomes...

I think that Gallas has been excellent for us and given us experience and a winning mentality that we lacked but I'd be very worried about him playing in a team playing a high defensive line

I'm almost 100% certain that we will sign a new goalkeeper this summer. Not ITK or anything, but it just makes all kinds of sense that we will.

I think that the safest course of action would be to keep Freidel as first choice for one more season. If Ledley and Gallas leave this summer, we will lack leadership and experience at the back and a reliable keeper who organised his defence well would reduce the risk of it blowing up in our face.

On Moutinho: assured by several people I believe #mufc bid real. Others, such as the well-connected @DuncanCastles, disagree...

It doesn't appear that we're taking the safe route with anything this summer.

I'm thinking that AVB will want someone who is better with the ball at his feet, it's quite important for his style of football. This is also the reason I'm guessing our goalkeeper won't be Gomes.
 
Rory Smith @RorySmithTimes

And, as far as I know, the #LFC interest in Gaston Ramirez disappeared with Comolli. He's this year's Juan Mata.
Stunned at the number of lifelong Ramirez fans on here. And at the number of experts on the reliability of the Uruguayan+British media.
It's like you do nothing but watch Bologna and read Ovacion. I'm impressed.
