Transfer Window Countdown Tuesday..

2m (if it's true) for Krancjar is a bargain!

Talk on one Spurs site the deal is done for £2m.

I've ignored most of the rumours during the summer, so I'll believe this when I see him holding a Spurs scarf for the cameras.

apparently deal is close to happening.

Also, and this is a weird one:

Martin Petrov to Spurs, David Bentley to City (loan or transfer, both are rumoured)

Im_No_Superman

Krancjar for 2 million is unbelievable. Man United could do alot worse than looking at him imo.

Mr Alan

if Krancjar is available for 2m, i'm going to kill myself because we can't afford that.

heard Bentley was going to Everton myself.

Running Bing

Kranjcar to Spurs definitely seems quite likely.......dont know about 2 mil (I know thats whats being said, Im just not sure how accurate it is), would be a great signing imo.

everdead.ie

Can Kranjcar play on the left?

He sure can. His wiki entry has already incorrectly been updated as a spurs player. jumping the gun a bit

"Croatian footballer who currently plays as a midfielder for English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and the Croatian national team."

"His move to Spurs was greeted by Harry Redknapp by saying Kranjcar would be a 'triffic' signing."

are you sure about that

England had a bank holiday monday

JokerD

Am I the only one here hoping that their club holds on to a player instead of signing one? Jermaine Beckford I hope will be in a Leeds shirt to put a hat-trick past the Pool in the Carling Cup:D I 've a different kind of wait, please no-one bid for Becks

therecklessone

Juventus have signed Fabio Grosso from Lyon, and Eidur Gudjohnsen looks set to leave Barca for Monaco.

everdead.ie

I'm pretty sure an english club can still buy players from abroad but a team like real madrid can't because they cant register the player to play in the league or europe until January but english teams can still register the players because of the long weekend there

I know, but they're so good at appearing to be on the edge of believable all the time.

At least it leaves more time to make up rumors for sky sports.:pac:

Can someone comfirm now so that Real cant sign Ribery now, as it is only British clubs who can sign players?

I lumped €150(max bet) on him at 1/4 to stay at Bayern on the back of this. Got him at 6/1 earlier in the summer too.

Got Dunne at 25/1 too:)

Got Dunne at 25/1 too:)

Real can't sign him to play for them now - but they could sign him to join in Jan or next summer. If he doesn't move to an English club though, he will def be at Bayern until Jan at least.

glanman

Thats fine so, as long as Bayern are his club by the end of today it don't matter if he signs pre contract. It is now 1/7 anyway...

I also had Sol Campbell at 14/1 to go to Notts county. Got Beckford at 25/1 to join any premier league club, would be great if that came off.

Here are the odds on other transfers, nothing else appealing to me at the moment

http://www.skybet.com/skybet?action=GoEvType&id=10003041

Dunne having a medical as we speak. Shorey probably going to Portsmouth on loan, and he was just beginning to play well for us. I presume it means that Bouma is gonna be back playing in the near future though.

DubDani

The German Transfer List has been closed, and he is not on it. So he is def. staying at Bayern for at least another 5 months.

http://www.bundesliga.de/media/native/dfl/transferlisten/71-09-10.pdf

glanman

Well if anyone has a skybet account it is easy money. He is 1/10 but at least it will increase your bank/max bet by 10%

No - he could still sign for an English club. the window has not closed for English clubs.

glanman

I cant see any english club signing him TBH

And he's been quoted in L'Equipe as saying he doesn't feel close to Van Gaal and the rumour mongers are out in force saying he's been seen around London. If true that could only mean Chelsea, no ?

This is what SSN was invented for, they are so excited god bless them!!

Its good TV though, I remember watching the deadline in January and the guy at Eastlands getting pelted with snowballs, hilarious!

I doubt it very much, but 33/1 at the moment if you are interested!

The bet has been removed completely now

Oh that's a shame - would have loved to see him ply his trade in the premiership.

So they allow gambling on transfers - how do they overcome insider knowledge ?

latest from the BBC

Now, I have more digging to do to firm up what I've just been told by my high-profile man-in-the-know, but here's a teaser, to be taken with a pinch of salt for now: a big-money transfer will happen in the north-west today, with Everton and Liverpool, as well as Man City, ready to splash the cash; Arsenal hope to do a late deal for a midfielder; and Portsmouth are in the process of negotiating 427 incoming signings, of which maybe three will come off. I may have exaggerated the last one, but you get the idea."

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/8227622.stm

Mr Alan

Liverpool are skint, only massive deal we could be involved in would be if a club would be willing to accept a collection of Tom Hicks Liverpool mugs as payment.

Mitch Connor

United really need to buy, but it won't happen. Been a very, very poor summer for United. gutted with how it has turned out to be honest.

I dont know really. they all have a certain level, betfair have to stay or go markets, ie Fabregas to stay at Arsenal, yes or no. Paddypower had a small few too.

Skybet seemed to have the most bets and they were a little slow to change odds when rumours and news came out. I just kept an eye on rumours and took a few punts. Dunne at 25/1 a few months ago, Huntaleer at 14s to AC too.

As for inside knowledge, I would love some of that:)

Are Liverpool are going to make a major loan signing today, using money raised by selling Lauri Dalle Valle to Fulham for 5 million? Hmmmmm.

Would be terrible business for Liverpool to let Lauri Dalle Valle go.

mike65

Thats as maybe and discussed on the other thread I'm interested in what if Rafa suddenly has 5 million to spend.

He'd probably but 37 youngsters for the academey that will never make it to the reserves.

glanman

looks like benjani to notts county could be on, odds shortening. Also Bentlay is now odds on to stay with spurs. Loans dont count as transfers on sky so maybe he will only go on loan, or is the deal off?

thomond2006

Benjani moving to Notts? I lol'd.

glanman

Turned down a move to hull, where he would have been playing, due to wages.6/4 to join notts county on loan, 1/2 to join pompey. Notts county paying Campbell 50k+ for 5 years, they can afford him too! I would be a little surprised but the link is so crazy that it could just be true...

Plus, I think loans can take place outside of the window to non premier league teams, so mgiht go through another day

mike65

hot off the press-

Ipswich are about to sign Grant Leadbitter (£2.6m) and Carlos Edwards (£1.35m) from Sunderland. Edwards, oddly, seems to be one of those players who is far too good for the Championship and nowhere near good enough for the Premier League.

Keano raiding his old club, hardly a surprise.

glanman

I watched the Damned United the other night (very good film, must get the book). Keane seems to be similar to Clough, sign players that he has worked with in the past.

Ipswich badly need new players.
