TRANSFER SPECULATION - WHO ARE WE LINKED WITH?

Post by QuartzGooner »

As the transfer window approaches, we are linked with many players in the press.

I would just like to compile a list of all we are linked with in the press over the summer, just to see how many names end up on it!

Help me out, and by end of summer let us see what we end up with.

Here are a few to start with:

Milligan - Australian defensive midfielder/defender

Dimitrov - Bulgarian winger

Villa - Spanish striker

Ben Arfa - French winger

Benzema - French striker

Jean II Makoun - Cameroonian midfielder

Michael Johnson - English midfielder

Micah Richards - English defender

Cana - Kosovan Alabanian midfielder

Henry - legendary French forward

Gomes - Brazilian keeper

Quicker to establish who we're not linked with.

SSN are saying today that the scum have been boosted in their efforts to sign david villa cos valencia are in the shits financially(obviously this isnt word for word :wink: ) and that he might be bought for £16m. Can you imagine the backlash if that summy shower got him for £16m with no competition from us :?: :roll: :x

Benzama and Villa are top class that means we wont sign them probably end up with the Australian,the Bulgarian and the Albanian because they are cheap

The Dimitrov story was a fabrication, so not really a link.

Ben Arfa (according to France Football) is about to sign a new 4-year contract at Lyon, and Benzema keeps saying he wants to stay there too, and later move to Italy or Spain.

Have we been linked in the press with Richard Dunne, or has that just been rebel here?

Amauri - Brazilian striker

Klaus Jan Huntelaar - Dutch striker

Loic Perrin - French midfielder

Carlos Cuellar - Spanish defender

"Linked with" can be as tenuous as you like....even if it is a one liner on tribal football it counts for these purposes.

Have we been linked with him? Isn't it only people suggesting him on this forum?
