Transfer Latest.....

Stephen Ireland having medical at St James Park.

Robbia Keane is having a medical at West Ham.

Chelsea to bid £40 million for Torres today.

Shaun Wright-Phillips has transfer request rejected by Man City.

I dont know what to make of Ireland.
He was decent for Man City 2-3 yrs ago but has seriously gone off the boil since then and never made an impact at Villa.
But with Smith possibly being out for the rest of the season, and Routledge going to QPR on loan the central midfield is looking a bit light.

Be a good signing if he recaptures his form and will probably mean SWP signs.

Would be a good signing for you,if he played like he has for us(When in the Championship).

hopefully wont be too expensive either as his contract is running out

Tottenham have had a 38.5 million bid for Sergio Aguero rejected

:affraid:

not supprised

deadline day is here guys what could be more important than this today :cheers:

wahoo, i love deadline day.
the live txt on bbc is classic

"My mate's brother says his bin man is Charlie Adam's sister's neighbour and has just seen him going in a london hotel with Harry Rednapp"

:606laugh:

and they wern't going in there to discuss a potential transfer either

I must admit, I do think the Transfer window is a bad idea. It inflates the price of players in January as people are reluctant to disrupt their squad.

having said that, you usally do get some surprise moves.

I love it! :cheers:

From the BBC Newsfeed:
on Twitter: "Emile Heskey has been spotted at Newcastle. Though, to be fair, he was probably aiming for Middlesbrough." :606laugh: :606laugh:

Middlesborough have signed J-Lo.

Actually misread that, its a guy called Max bum.

Sorry I mean Max Haas.

It's being reported that an offer for Torres has been accepted.

I've just heard transfer deadline day being described as similar to going to your work restaurant and paying £20 for a pot noodle, just before they are about to close :606laugh:

Yeah, been on sky sports that Torres is supposedly been flown to Chelsea's training ground to discuss terms & have medical ahead of supposed 50million pound transfer.

Daniel Sturridge off to Bolton?

£30m for Edge...sorry Andy Carroll. That's more than Barcelona paid for David Villa!!! Madness!

Newcastle reject £30million bid from Liverpool for Andy Carroll.

I guess that means they're seriously considering moving Torres on!

Torres for £50m, is he worth it?

On current form - No.

He's too injury prone and because he has been plagued by injury he has been fairly inconsistent.

There is no doubting that he is a class player on his day...but he doesn't seem to produce the goods on a regular enough basis.

What suprised me about Torres is that he is the leading goalscorer in the Premier League since 2007 - by some margin. On current form though, no chance he is worth £50m. Same goes for Rooney and I reckon he would sell for more than that.

50million for a player that has been at best this season mediocre. Last january I reckon he could have been worth 40mill at the most and Torres was hot last season.

Amauri from Juventus has turned down offers from WBA & Fulham

Blacpool have £1m offer accepted from Sunderland for Andy Reid

Liverpool have upped their bid for Andy Carrol to £35m according to the BBC.

I'm starting to get nervous!

£35m? That is crazy amounts of money. Surely Torres is on his way out if they are forking that sum of money on him.

Has the Luis Suarez deal gone through yet?

Not yet....

I reckon the Suarez deal hangs on teh Torres deal.

If he goes, Suarez won't come and they will get Carroll.

Suarez has moved I think, stated he will wear the number 7 shirt but seriously £35m for Carroll has the world gone friggin mad!!!

Anything on Charlie Adam?
Honestly can't believe there are bids of 35m being thrown at Carroll. No offence to the lad as he is still young but he has had one half of a good season and clubs are willing to pay that for him. Agree with madrox, the world has gone friggin nuts.

As a fan i would like him to stay but if i was Pardew i'd be contacting Wigan and Bolton and looking to sort out bids for Rodallega and Elmander!

The Guardian and Telegraph reckon Liverpool have met Newcastle's expectations with their current offer. Looks like the move is on...

As far as I am aware Charlie Adam trained at Blackpool earlier on today however that generally means nothing nowadays but Blackpool have just signed Andy Reid, read into it what you like...

If Pardew is given the majority of £35m to strengthen the team (I know it is late) surely it is a good deal?

£10m for Elmander - £10m for Rodallega (at most) and then another ten mill for the summer

E,

Elmander won't cost half that, he's a free agent in the summer!

They may have met the valuation, but without us having a replacement it will hinge on that!

Half of me thinks Torres has asked Liverpool to show him they are serious about improving the team or he is off. I have a feeling he might stay put.

Didn't realise his contract was up in the summer. The price would need to be much higher than his worth because of the limited time to find a replacement (in the same way that Carroll's price is higher).

Tottenham Hotspuds seem desperate to sign someone, who is your money on? Only 7 hours to go and counting...

What do you make of this:

Interesting, very interesting. Apparently the odds on Blackpool midfielder Charlie Adam joining Manchester United have plummeted in the last few minutes. He is now 1/4 to go there and only 5/2 to join long-term suitors Liverpool. United boss Sir Alex Ferguson said last week of course that Adam is "worth £10m for his corners alone". Watch this space.

Not true apparently:


1638: I'm told there is no truth in the 'Charlie Adam to Man Utd' rumours. Apparently, Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston is refusing to answer calls from Liverpool about the Scotland midfielder... maybe that United story started when Kenny Dalglish phoned up pretending to be Sir Alex Ferguson instead?

Bobby, are you quoting the BBC live feed? :606laugh:

I wish Ashley had refused to answer the phone.

Me? No boss

At long last, I can give you an update on Fernando Torres' switch to Chelsea. Well, an explanation on why it hasn't progressed for the last few hours. BBC Sport understands that the delay with the deal is down to a hitch in negotiations about the mechanics of his Stamford Bridge contract, concerning image rights etc.


As Bobby Brown would say....

2 can play that game!

:dancingbunny: :handbags:

Wow. A twist in the Andy Carroll saga - and it's a biggie - despite reports earlier that Newcastle had accepted a Liverpool bid for the 22-year-old striker, it seems they actually rejected the Reds' second offer too. Just SIX HOURS of the transfer window left for the two clubs to work that one out - and how much does it rely on Fernando Torres completing his move to Chelsea too. We will find out, soon enough...

Now who's quoting the BBC website.

Newcastle reject the £35m offer from Liverpool for Carrol - it's unbelievable Jeff!

They will be back with a third bid. Just cause Carroll is keen doesn't mean he wants to leave, just means if we accept a bid then he will discuss terms!

why do they wait til the last day for these crazy bids lol.
its not like they havnt had the last 30 days to start the bidding process

looks like Carroll is off to liverpool.
Breaking news on sky, newcastle accept his transfer request, hes headed to liverpool to discuss terms

I always wondered that YI Man. Doesn't make sense because clubs like Newcastle will just hold them to ransom.
