I'm sure Embers will be rapt to hear that the tribunal decided Bostock was only worth 700,000. Disgraceful decision.

Simon Jordan went nuts...again.
 
Was there chair breaking involved? I hope so.

Former Chelsea and Newcastle defender Celestine Babayaro is training with Portsmouth.

Pompey boss Harry Redknapp has given the 29-year-old the opportunity to impress after an ill-fated spell at Los Angeles Galaxy.

Babayaro left Newcastle last December after more than two injury-hit years, when his contract was cancelled by mutual consent.

Now he is bidding to win a deal at Fratton Park after being taken on trial for a week.

Redknapp is looking for cover at left-back despite the impressive performances of first choice Hermann Hreidarsson.

Babayaro first came to the Premier League in 1997 when he signed for Chelsea, before going on to make 197 appearances for the Stamford Bridge club.

Meanwhile, former Liverpool defender Djimi Traore has returned to the club for pre-season training while his future is resolved.

Traore spent the second half of last season on loan at Rennes and had been expected to clinch a permanent move.

Several French clubs are believed to be showing an interest in the 28-year-old full-back.

West Ham

Defence

Matthew Upson
Anton Ferdinand
Danny Gabbidon
James Collins
Callum Davenport
Lucas Neill
George McCartney
James Tomkins
Julien Faubert
Jonathon Spector
John Pantsil

Yeh quite alot of players incase you didnt notice. Collins, Gabbidon, Pantsil and if cleared to play Davenport all gone. No one new in IMO. Our defence is fine. Its our strongest point. Upson is a gun. Anton is getting better and better. George McCartney is the best LB we have had in ages and Neill and Faubert are both good enough to battle for right back.

Green
Faubert Upson Ferdinand McCartney

Midfield

Scott Parker
Kieron Dyer
Freddie Ljungberg
Mark Noble
Lee Bowyer
Matt Etherington
Luis Boa More
Hayden Mullins
Jack Collison

Dyer still has shin splints and im not sure if hes ready for the start of the year. We really do need a creative CM and a new LW. Etherington, LBM should both be sold. A player like Damien Duff on the cheap + a first choice LW (hopefully we can persuade Behrami to join). Gudjohnsenn for CM or if not him Fletcher from Man Poo. Needs improving quickly

Strikers

Dean Asthon
Craig Bellamy
Carlton Cole
Bobby Zamora
Freddie Sears

I like most want to see more Freddie Sears. Very impressive youngster. Ideally we sell Cole AND Zamora and get someone in for 8 mill. Realistically I think Cole wil go off to Sunderland and we will try and sign someone on loan to sit on the bench again. One should be sold either way to raise money. Cole or Zamora. Im happy with that strike force for now

Green
Faubert Upson Ferdinand McCartney
Dyer Gudjohnsenn Parker New LW
Ashton Bellamy

Bench: Stech Neill Tomkins Mullins Noble Ljungberg Zamora
 
On your post there Embers, what I'd like to see happen to what you have there.

1 - Sell Neiil and Ljungberg. Lucas is a good defender and captain yes, but he's overpaid and going to leave when his contract finishes up. Would like a younger replacement (would love Behrami) or even Faubert be given a go there. Freddie's just overpaid, and should be a first team player for us unless he really improves from last season. Can't see that happening at his age.

2 - Sell at least 2 of Gabbidon, Davenport and Collins. Unless you could get 8-10M for Anton. Tomkins provides excellent cover. Gabbidon for $2M to Stoke, Collins for about to same to WBA.

3 - Agree on the LW's. Wouldn't bring in Duff though, he's too old and slow now. I'm hoping this is the spot where Nani could bring in a quality youngster from Italy. Giavonici (know I didn't spell that right) would have been ideal, but he's at Palermo now. Really the area where we need the biggest upgrade though. Etherington I wouldn't mind keeping as a backup though. He has pace and actually scored a few goals last season.

4 - Striker wise, sell Cole and Zamora, and bring in Edison Cavani. 4-some of Ashton, Bellamy, Cavani and Sears will do nicely.

5 - Gudjohnsen for the creative CM midfielder rotating with Noble and Parker. Mullins to be kept as a backup DM for when we play 4-5-1. Bowyer as well, although maybe 1 of them could be sold.
 
Ronaldo's Girlfriend To Prevent Madrid Move?

Rumour has it that Cristiano Ronaldo's special lady, one Nereida Gallardo, could prevent his move to Real Madrid. Not only is the Mallorcan said to be eager to remain in England, but there may also be a nasty surprise awaiting them if they move to Spain...


Britain's classiest newspaper, the News of the World, claims that tensions could be immediately high if Ronaldo moves to the Bernabéu due to the presence of Sergio Ramos, with whom Nereida enjoyed a brief fling.

The paper gleefully squealed, "Cristiano doesn’t know Nereida’s already slept with one of Real Madrid’s top players.

"He’s a jealous guy and she’s kept it a secret from him because it’s something in her past. Sergio [Ramos is] a bit of a joker and the last thing she wants is him welcoming Cristiano to Madrid by announcing he’s already tackled his girlfriend."

Apparently the tryst took place after the two hooked up at the glitzy Madrid nitespot Joy Eslava.

"Sergio was there with two friends and they and Nereida’s mates all ended up back at his house. Sergio was all over Nereida and ended up leading her by the hand into his bedroom," concluded the article.

How much importance is actually to be placed on such gossip, even if true, is another matter entirely. As Cristiano and Nereida were not an item back then it hardly seems to be a make-or-break factor.

Ms. Gallardo's craving for the limelight, though, could be a considerably greater influence.

Bahahaha. Pwnt. Ramos you sly dog you.
 
How someone that moaned all year about injuries wants to sign another past it sicknote in Duff is beyond me.

Not to play. Just to warm the bench. Only reason I said Duff is because I cant imagine him costing more then 1-2 mill. Not many LW around in that price range unless Nani can get a youngster in
 
Alot of action in the outs column for West Ham so far

We rejected a 4.5 million bid for our left back George McCartney from Sunderland. We should hold out for 6.

We have agreed a fee of 4.25 million for Bobby Zamora to Fulham and 1.25 million for John Pantsil also to Fulham. Combined fee of between 5.5 million and 6.5 million for both of them depends on who you read and believe . They are having medicals with Fulham tomorrow and that should be that. Both good deals however ill still be sad to see them go. Bobby has done more for this club then any other current Hammer and will be missed. Deserves a heroes reception when he returns. John Pantsil is just a crazy character everyone loves even if his football ability is somewhat limited.

Ah I dont like selling (unless its Boa Morte)

You do realise how much Duff is on a week don't you?

Yeh kind of forgot about that in my dazed state. ATM most seem to think Behrami is coming despite his agent saying otherwise a few days ago. He said he wants to join Werder Bremen but atm no CL club appears to have come in for him.

If he has to choose between a host of non CL clubs I imagine he will choose us because we will probably give him more money.
 
Rumour has it that Arsenal and Barcelona have reached an agreement over Hleb and will be announced within 2 days. Already agreed personal terms and all that is left is the medical and obviously the official confirmation.
