The "AVB telling porkies" thing; am I the one who think that might relate to Moutinho?

AVB seemed to imply at the pressie on thursday that Porto asked too much for their players and that he was too expensive, so he wouldnt come to WHL.

We reallly need a replacement for Modric

Despite what the press say, I don't think he said we had given up on Moutinho. He said it would be difficult as Porto demand a lot, but he also said their players have a history of being successful. You could take that as a hint to Levy. When pressed on whether we would sign Moutinho he said it was unlikely. His comments make me think that we are still trying to get Moutinho but have other back-up options.

I don't think that AVB implied anything of the sort.

It was the media who inferred it - for their usual self serving, sensationalist reasons.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if we're still trying hard to bring in Moutinho.

i think he would rather play in the premiership than Serie A. Only issue could be wages BUT I cant imagine it to be THAT much. around 3-4m. 60-70k a week?

We should hurry up and get it sorted before Roman realises that Torres isn't going to win him any trophies.

Ade is now done. 1 more to come up top too...... #AVB telling porkies!!

will he be announced this week?
The original JJetset ‏@jetsetyid
1 will...

does that mean JD is offski?
The original JJetset ‏@jetsetyid
Good question ? Up to him really.

what about the creativity needed In midfield, any news
The original JJetset ‏@jetsetyid
Yes but too early to say ;0)

Soldado story is rubbish.

Thank feck for that and the +1 top would be great for us! Anything on a Modders replacement JJ?
The original JJetset ‏@jetsetyid
Modders is still here!

Shame. Perhaps we're being more 'lion-hearted' with our targets though ;-) I think youve got another surprise up yr sleeve JJ!
The original JJetset ‏@jetsetyid
Couple more surprises hopefully;0)

But is Ade 'done' only in the same way that Vertonghen was 'done' for weeks before he actually signed?
@jetsetyidThis one should be quicker now.

Not everyone prefers to play in England over Italy believe it or not. Not to mention Juventus are a far more prestigious club than us who are in the CL. It's not cut and dried like you make out....

Could the +1 be Andy Carroll loan deal on the 31st?

Well I agree and wasnt trying to make it all 'cut and dried' but I was thinking more along the lines of the playing style, other spanish players here and the like.

Granted we arent in CL which is an issue not to mention not the size of Juve but I think most players would come to the premiership over Italy. Thats my view point. Its not ignorant just calculated thinking. grrrrr.
