Sorry to chime in, but reading the names of Babel and Lewandowski got me thinking about something. I was interested if anyone know why a lot of the Bundesliga stars seem to be moving away (Kagawa, Marin, Podolski etc)? I don't really follow the transfer game or the finances, but is there some problems over there matching the wages of the bigtime players or is it just a coincidence? Thanks.

Only Kagawa was a real Bundesliga star from what you've named there, Podolski was good but his team weren't. Marin was a bit of a flash in the pan but has potential to improve. Javi Martinez just moved to the Bundesliga ffs.

Berba to Fulham is a done deal.

Podolski has always been a Bundesliga star..

Hardly. Very far from it during his time with Bayern.

Good luck Berbatov.

I hope and know you'll you bang in tonnes of goals. (not against us, of course).

Would that not be more to do with his exploits for the national team though? He's always done well with Koln but I thought a lot of opinions on him turned sour when his Bayern move didn't really work out. Always been one of my favourite players though...

And fantastic with Köln as a youngster before that, and then again after that. Coupled with his performances for the NT. He has always been a star.

Opinions of Bayern fans soured, because so much was expected of him. Lots of players move to a bigger club and don't do well, he was 21/22 and away from home for the first time. The pressure on him was too much and it didn't work out. That doesn't take him out of the ''Bundesliga star'' category.

Babel back to Ajax on a one-year deal apparently.

What an embarrassment those Stoke fans are.

He can barely contain his excitement.

Babel has bought himself out at Hoffenheim, he wasnt released.
Hoffenheim wanted €3m from potential buyers but since that wasnt going to happen he bought himself out in order not to have to sit out the 1st half of the season at the reserves of Hoffenheim.
Even if nothing happens for him today, he is able to join a club after todays deadline.

That would have been me....

Same website now says there is a verbal agreement he ll join them after all on a 1 year deal.

Ajax do need a cfwd as Sigturson, talented as he is, is again injured. Missed heaps of last season and now dislocated his shoulder while ****ing around in the gym

Tottenham agree a fee with Lyon of €10m plus €5m in variables for Hugo Lloris. The France goalkeeper is in London taking a medical. #THFC

Nuri Sahin

€10m plus €5m in variables for Lloris according to Duncan Castles.

Bargain if he can reproduce the form of 2, 3 years ago, as I think I said already in this thread.

10million + 5 in variables (not sure if pounds or euros) apparently the Lyon chairman is fuming about Levy's shenanigans and deal may not go through (probably just SSN trying to drive up the tension)

Bit worrying though if ya have to say that about a goalkeeper who is 25. His form should only be getting better the older he gets. Ive never seen what the fuss was about over Lloris, but obviously Spurs need a new keeper to replace Friedel.

Kerrydude1981

Surprised that no EPL team made a move for VDV,he would have been a great addition to any of the top sides imo

Dickerty

I hate saying it, but Spurs are showing how to invest when you sell a star player. They lose Modric and VDV, and sign Moutinho, Dembele, Vertonghen, Gylfi and Adebayor for about the same money.

When Liverpool sold Alonso and Mascherano, we bought Aquilani and Meireles...

They may have but apparently he wanted to go back to Hamburg, as did his wife. He's hugely popular over there.

Anyone

The year or two leading up to the WC 2010 he was excellent for Lyon in the league and Europe and made some really important saves against us in the WC playoff.

They have to replace Friedel and Cudicini is no spring chicken and Gomes.........well hes just Gomes so less said the better.

Tough job been a Sky reporter on transfer deadline day,imagine if they sent out the likes of Hayley Mcqueen and Nat Sawyer to report back to the studio,fellas in the background would have to be put in straight jackets

He wouldnt get into City, Utd, Chelsea or Arsenal's team at the moment.

Not when they have Silva, Kagawa, Hazard, Cazorla all to do a similar job to VDV in playing off a striker.

Moutinho deal hits snag with personal terms.

Liverpool in for Benayoun. Bizarre.

Lumbo

The bloke on the gate at Finch Farm (Evertons training ground) told all the kids hanging about that Essien was at Goodison so they all dashed off. He said this so they could get Oviedo in without any hassle.
