What every team (with a few gaps) needs this summer.

Arsenal - 14/15 year olds, preferably French and cheap. Sell the odd star or two, preferably to a title contender.
Aston Villa - Operation keep Benteke.
Cardiff - ??????
Chelsea - who cares, Jose is back
Crystal Palace - Bring Zaha back
Everton - Keep Baines, keep Fellaini and another Mirallas or two would be nice
Fulham - ?????
Hull - anyone brave (stupid) enough to live in Hull
Liverpool - doesn't matter as they will become instantly world class within seconds of signing.
Man City - More Nastasic, less Sinclair
Man United - World class quality in midfield and up front. All on player plus £20m swap deals.
Newcastle - Gerard Depardieu, Jean Reno, Audrey Tautou and Francois Hallande. Just to maintain dressing room harmony
Norwich - can Holt resist the temptation of the A league over the prem?
Southampton - A gag for Cortese
Stoke - a new groundsman to lay grass in the middle of the ground. They haven't needed any for the past few years.
Sunderland - right wingers, right wingers and more right wingers. Left wingers not required by the manager
Swansea - another Michu, not too much to ask it it?
Tottenham - a) Bale stays - No players required b) Bale goes - new team required
West Brom - please stay Romelu

I think Fabregas will go back to Arsenal if he leaves Barca. The price is just too expensive for other teams.
They're saying on tribalfootball that there is a really strong chance that Cesc will join United this summer.

What do you think Cruyff14? Are these reports worth believing?

Because Arsenal get half of the selling fee Fabregas would have to go for 70 million for Barca to break even. No chance of that - he's worth 25 mill max. If Man Utd bids 25 million Barca will only get 12.5 million of that. No point in selling.

Fabregas will be a Barcelona player next season. If he ever does leave though, it'll be to Arsenal IMO, would love him at United but couldn't ever see it happening.

Edit: well it appears City are in the race to sign Fabregas now.

The Supercats of 2012 would have me responding in fury at the utter stupidity of your post, but, now you have wised up. Good work. :thumbsu:

I am surprised as i thought he may stay in Barca for another year but from what i'm told, there is a good chance. Its complicated tho.


Dont do this to me Geoff.

Only been following him since about december last year and the most his said is we made a 30m bid but didnt say who for and Monreal was coming. Has got the team news right on quite a few occasions as well like in the final game against Newcastle he said that if Arteta wasn't fit then Chamberlaine would play in midfield which he did.

His word isn't gospel by any means but his defiantly got some inside knowledge.
