Cristian Tello off to Liverpool this week, according to Balague.
Balague has been very quiet since the Euros; it's transfer muppet time in earnest now so he pops up.
Although I suppose this one may prove to be correct.
You watch a lot of La Liga, would he be a good signing? If they'd be willing to let him go for a reasonably meagre fee, it'd suggest not. But then not-good-enough-for-Barca is still probably pretty good...Quote:

If Barca have a player that they aren't all that convinced about, then they'll let them go because I suppose they know, should they turn out to prove them wrong - they will probably just buy them back. In Tello's case, he is more of a traditional winger than anything so I can see why they would let him go. I think he's good but he'll probably have the same role of coming on with ten minutes to spare in the main. His delivery can be really woeful but he is someone that will run behind a defence, especially as he'd mainly be coming on late in games.Quote:

That's a fair point. Give it a year or two and the DNA homing signal would kick in...Quote:

Left wing for Barca. If he is bench boy for most of it then I suppose he will probably have the same role again. I'd have thought he would offer more than Downing, whatever position.
Well that's a given. I know he starts slowly, but last season was ridiculous.Quote:

By all accounts it's Mourinho that is pressing for Sahin to go to Liverpool, suppose it makes sense he wouldn't want Sahin to help us in a competition Real Madrid are trying to win too.
Morientes. :bow:
Everton are after Charlie Adam according to the Gossip column
SIB must be devastated if this comes to pass
Moyes can't resist supplementing decent signings with some shit Scottish players.
