The muddle that we call the transfer window

What better way to get back at it than delve straight into the flurry of transfer action...I truely believe that reports have this random number generating program to come up with the figures for transfer fees...like 10 million for Wayne Bridge...oh but i forget its City thats doing the buying...I personally would nominate city as the worst team money could buy. Well City got the ball rolling by splashing the cash on Wayne Bridge, 7 more signings and they will be well on their way to world domination.

Next we turn our eyes to White Hart Lane, I think they spurs fans are feeling now its more like Broken Heart Lane. I am not so sure what it is with spurs but I dont think when they buy players they have a goal in mind, but atleast now they have a wiley campaigner at the helm that certainly knows how to wheel and deal. They kicked off their spending with a bit of Nastolgia splashing 15 million on Jermaine Defoe who they not so long ago discarded to Pompey for 7 million.

On the opposite side of the fence is pompey who can seem to keep a secret more than they can keep a hold of their players. Every club is casting a gazing eyes at Pompey's prized assest, first Diarra now Defoe...who next Disting, Johnson...Lenny the ball bwoy. It seems to be the season of linking up with old acquaitances... it seems that big same is in for Diouf, Blackburn needs all the help they can get after the mess Ince left them in...and nothing more would help than little spitting from Diouf.

It seems as if this trnasfer season is gonna be a very low Transfer window for the Big Four... or should that be big Five...whatever...with the exception of Arsenal... but as we have seen in past years predicting Arsene's next move is as hard as predicting when next Mike Riley will make a correct call... I will not even beging to go into the names that are being speculated...basically if he is a player he will be linked with Arsenal...but i have it on good authority Arsene is looking for his next player in some spem bank in London....yeah yeah...His career maybe a little embryonic at this stage but u can never have too many good home grown talent...

As you may have notice i have been taking the piss out of the transfer window...basically because thats wat it is... a bunch of rumours that float around the place from lazy journalist... a silly as it may be its still silly fun...so until January 31st we will just enjoy all that is the transfer window.
