I have no proof whatsoever if this is true ,i got it off twitter .
I'm submitting this to the OED as a fantastic example of tautology.

The chavs paid 20m + to buy back a guy that they sold for a couple of million 3 years ago :roll:

His favorite position is bench and his weakness is a winter coat which looks like a michelin logo.

Isn't Draxler out injured for a few months? Would make little sense to lose Pod and acquire someone who can't play for a while, thus making the squad weaker.

(but yeah, I know, Draxler isn't coming anyway :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: )

Mata to United for 37m. That's a first "big one". I like Mata but 37? I don't think he's worth that much, maybe around 20-25m, but nothing more.

Losing Pod? Please don't. Play Pod? Please do!

Btw doesn't this bloke look familiar?

That's a rumour I could believe in - wenker clearly doesn't rate podolski so why wouldn't he sanction such a deal ? Personally I rate pod and don't want him to go but the CIC doesn't so I'm not sure how you can dismiss this so easily :o

It's exactly the same rumour that did the rounds in the summer.

Talks broke down last night over a possible swap deal with Fredy Guarin of Inter Milan, but reports in Italy say Juventus are still prepared to let Mirko Vucinic go. Tuttosport suggests there is still a chance the striker could be on his way to the Premier League, where Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham have all previously been connected.
