As part of our occasional series on divisive footballers (See previous entries Here and Here) we turn to Barcelona (for the time being) striker Samuel Eto’o.
The main inspiration for his inclusion is that while many footballers, who on the face of it would seem unavaliable are being stalked for months (Kaka’, Ronaldo, Lampard, Even [...]

I’m going to open up a pub debate* to you all Offsiders. Kaká as you will know by now, is wanted by Chelsea, they apparently have a had a bit of £60m turned down (although the talk has been of £80m). While this seems like an insanely high price for any man, I would say [...]
Arsenal’s Exodus: But Will They Miss Them?
By: Rob | No Comments
Arsenal were the pleasant surprise of last season. Most people had them down for 4th, or maybe 5th if Spurs could get thier act together. Turned out, they led the league for a long time and The Kids Were Alright. Wenger is facing problems now, as his entire midfield seems to be wanting out. Matthieu [...]
Is this the slowest, dullest, longest Transfer Window ever?
By: Rob | 1 Comment
Remember when you were young, summers lasted forever, Blur on the stereo, all your friends messing around in the sun, kicking a ball around, pretending to be whoever your clubs latest signing was?
Is it just me, or is every transfer this season taking about 7,000 years to actually complete? I mean, I woke up today [...]

Why?

Chelsea chief exec Peter Kenyon today announced the club had turned down an £8m approach from Inter Milan for Frank Lampard, but they refused the offer because they want him to see out his contract. Its a lovely principle, but it doesn’t make much sense to me.

The big news to come out of new Chelsea manager Luis Scolari’s first press conference at the club is that midfielder Frank Lampard isn’t going anywhere. It has long been assumed that the controversial England man would be moving on, probabaly to Inter Milan. Jose Mourinho, the new coach at Inter is known to love [...]
Ronaldo out, Kaka’ in? Summer just got interesting.

You’ve probably heard the news that C-Ron has decided that if Real Madrid do want to pay £70m for him, he might as well play for the club he grew up dreaming he’d play for. What you might not have heard is that Ricky Kaka’ has been on Milan radio and said how much he [...]
Chelsea try ‘cheeky’ Torres bid
By: Rob | 3 Comments
With Didier Drogba seeming likely to get the move out of London he’s wanted since the day after he arrived, and Chelsea’s general unwillingness to play Andriy Shevchenko, they need a striker. Apparently Roman Abramovich has decided that Fernando Torres is the answer, and has reportedly tabled a £40m offer for him.
Wenger to sue Hleb?
By: Rob | 1 Comment
I’ll let you re-read that title. It seems that Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has finally snapped. Annoyed at the potential exodus at the Emirates, starting with Matthieu Flamini and heavily rumoured to include Hleb, Fabregas, Gallas, Lehman, Giberto Silva and Theo Wallcott, the frenchman has decided he’d rather sue Hleb than let him just leave.
Do you remember when transfers had rules?
By: Rob | 1 Comment
A couple of days ago, when I was talking about Arsenal’s impending exodus, I mentioned that Real were eyeing up Cesc Fabregas. Now though, in an effort to completely flout the transfer rules, they have told the Catalonia Kid that he has to make the first move. Now ignoring entirely that they have effectively made [...]
