August 2012 - Transfer deadline day gossip

That Henderson/Dempsey story simply isn't true.

It's ridiculous on so many levels.

I don't know, mate. It sounds ridiculous but I wouldn't be surprised if we get bent over again selling players in this window, trying to fix previous 'mistakes'.
We've just got to hope that the players coming in work out for us.

Transfer Deadline Day can wipe my arse for all I care. One of the worst days of the year!

Pretty sure I just saw Iniesta arrive in the Babelcopter at JLA, done deal I reckon.  #ITK

edit: Well SOMEONE had to confirm it was silly season, thought I'd take that liberty this time around.

Ahh! I see the Babelcopter has been rolled out of it's hangar once more!

I wonder what characters will be taking a flight in it tomorrow?!

Well, Babel is actually transfer free now..

You can't have a transfer deadline day without a Babelcopter flying around!!

Would love to see Babel on one of the big sports channels, playing it up, showing footage of the chopper starting up. Would be transfer deadline day Television GOLD!

Just been told a medical will take place tomorrow 

I think it will be either Sturridge or Dempsey that will come in.. One thing we will not see tomorrow is Arry hanging out the window of his Range Rover saying he is finished his business for the day 

Just been told a medical will take place tomorrow ??

For who?

It's almost a certainty there will be a medical for someone, I would hope.

Loic Remi of course! Sheesh.

Indeed! Just replace Thunderbird 1 with a helicopter and Scott Tracy with Ryan and you've got it! Easy. So easy! Babel is just lazing around, maybe sunbathing and then he get's that all important call. To the Babelcopter!


Thunderbird 1 Launch Sequence

Am I the only one who is gonna miss 'arry's mug sticking out the car window? Triffic player, triffic

And Sky Sports News window licking his car? I'm not going to miss that!


Screw that Thunderbird 1 launch sequence I posted earlier. This is how Ryan Babel really does it on transfer deadline day! Complete with the "lazy f**ker" approach he is so well renowned for.


Thunderbird 2

Am I the only one who is gonna miss 'arry's mug sticking out the car window? Triffic player, triffic

Just for you RM: 'arry approves of this thread and has put in a bid for it

Just to get the random rumour mill going here, according to Dutch media we're interested in 17 year old highly regarded Danish talent Lucas Andersen from Aalborg. A midfielder/winger. We've been linked with him before. Ajax and Borussia Dortmund are also interested. Ajax might have a big advantage considering they already have 5 other Danish players. He's supposed to cost about 1.5 million euros. Overmars dropped hints yesterday that they're trying to get him signed thsi transfer period.

I remember this guy on FM, supposed to have a decent future there

The only thing I could find on youtube: Lucas Andersen - Helenius

He's the tricky one, not the scorer.

Just noticed that Jordan Rhodes, who was linked to us (probably only by twitter "sources", but whatever...), has signed with Blackburn: http://www.rovers.co.uk/news/article/hot-shot-rhodes-in-record-rovers-deal-343125.aspx

I wouldn't mind making a gamble on a goalscorer from a lower league but I never expected him to cost £8M!

Saw that Granero has been confirmed for QPR. That seems like good business for them.

We got Sahin - dont give two sh*ts!

We need a striker of any age and any nationallity who can stick the ball in the net from 6 yards without thinking about it. If thats some lad who scored 42 goals in league 1 last year so be it because we need him!!

Only other signing Id make would be a good goalkeeper again of any age to give Pepe a good rattle for the number 1 spot

Anything after that would be a bonus for me

Said yesterday I'm going to trust BR that he has something lined up and hold onto to that till proved or 11pm! Otherwise it does start to look a little random - don't understand loaning AC and don't get the trading of Henderson when BR has already said he'll carry more midfielders than most but as said I'm gonna assume there's a logic to things once seen in their entirety.

From the Echo:

Liverpool are making a move for a striker today in a loan deal. Liverpool Echo will have the full story at 8am.
