Brian Donegan (Chelsea fan) says...

I think Robinho is a disgrace. Its so painfully obvious that he went for the money, given that he had said like five minutes before the deadline he wanted to go to chelsea. Already the similarties between city and chelsea are a Joke!!! City must remeber that chelsea have won the premier league twice, FA Cup, Carling cup and final of champions league. When they get that far then they can start talking. No chance of top 4 this year, Chelsea, Arsenal, Man U and Liverpool are too strong - city still have some medicore players lets not forget and will be too far behind by Jan. Good luck in the uefa cup Robinho you farce!!! Drogba will cut them down!!

Simon Davies (Arsenal fan) says...

Does no one else think that spurs signing dos santos for 4.7 million was a bit strange. if Barca rated him so highly, as he was ronaldinho's understudy you would think he was a bit more valuable. The only thing I can think of is Barca must have a hefty percentage of any selling on fee, or first choice on a buy back.

David Freeman (Tottenham Hotspur fan) says...

What a saga over Berba although they had him as Dimi months ago, yes I'm talking about the Manchester Mafioso. How is it teams like Luton get highly punished by the FA yet ManU seem to "walk on water" no matter what they do. Isn't what they've done bringing the game into disrepute? We owe Man City cos United tried to get Berba on the cheap. It was Spurs who showcased Berba to stardom so lets see who's noticed next, hopefully Pavlyuchenko and Dos Santos. I think Spurs have done really well in this transfer window so hopefully they will all want to play well for the shirt.

KANE HOPPS, PLEASE GO AND SUPPORT SPURS IF ARSENE PUT OUT AN UNDER 12'S TEAM I'D SUPPORT HIM, WE PROBABLE HAVE ONE OF THE BEST IF NOT THE BEST MANAGER IN THE WORLD AND IF ARSENE LEFT ARSENAL WE WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO REPLACE HIM.

Geordies care about our club,We dont need wise and ashley and lambias the entertainer.What we need is the geordies to put their hands in their pockets and buy ashley out.Even if its a few quid profit because thats all he is after.Chris Mort was probably silenced too thats why he jumped ship.Mike Ashley seemed a genuine guy until the club wanted money off him now he has shown that he aint 100% Black nd white,Anyone can wear the black nd white colours on their back but it has to be in your blood too.Come on get a consortium together and buy out Ashley ie Alan Shearer,Ant nd Dec,Sting,Kevin Keegan,Jimmy Naill,Peter Beardsley come on lads this is your club get the money together and run it like it should be,Oh I forgot 1 name Mr Bean your a geordie too and could not do any worse.

Arsenal didn't buy anyone on deadline day because they are set to sign Stephen Appiah from Fenerbache(Free transfer). This is what my source has told me.

Robbie Clarke (Liverpool fan) says...

Of course the Americans should sell! we are struggling to compete already and cant afford layers like keane without raising funds by selling other players! also dont have the money for the stadium. we need money in the team to buy top class players, with money we will be the best as we have a manager who will still buy the players who are correct for the position rather than just the biggest names!

Paul Smith (Ipswich Town fan) says...

Was at upton park yesterday with my mate who is a season ticket holder and we saw Lawrie Sanchez shaking hands with some WHUFC officials. Now today Curbs walks. Could Sanchez be new boss!!!!

Declan Moffit (Aston Villa fan) says...

Shame Curbishley went, he was a good manager.. Rumour has it that he's gonna replace Keegan at Newcastle. Also, keep an eye out for Brazil's Ronaldo to be training for Liverpool soon, he's a free agent so he can sign whenever..

David Walsh (Liverpool fan) says...

I think it is about time that the liverpool owners sell up and get out, look at manchester city signing robhino for 30+ million and man u signing berbatov for the same, liverpool will never win the league as long as they are in charge, we couldn't even sign barry as they wouldnt put the money up. With interest now from dubai, they might be able to let us finally compete with the likes of chelsea, man u and even now man city

David Rowlands (Liverpool fan) says...

In regards to the comments from Kane Hopps "an Arsenal fan". Mentioned in your blog is "this man is ruining our once great football club". Without Wenger Arsenal would still have managers like Bruce Rioch!! What a shame some fans have now become so fickle.

NEWCASTLE UNITED, pure comedy! I completely sympathise with KK. You cant maintain a management role when your decisions are publicly ignored by the board. Perhaps Mike Ashley might want to take a valuation of the club when they are narrowly surviving in the first division. There are some great assets at the club: Michael Owen, Shay Given, Steven Taylor etc but they wont stick around if there isnt the support, ambition or determination in evidence. The club will continue to spiral into a farce unless some signs of unity are clearly displayed and there is currently no sign of an inkling of confidence coming from St James's. Perhaps the WOW in the transfer market was that we didnt actually buy a great deal?....... Next season's derby at Hartlepool should be great.

David Allen says...

are nufc fans so blinkered they cant see ashley is a business man the only reason he brought keegan back was to make a quick buck keegan hasnt got a clue how to manage nowadays saying that he had all the money in the world last time at newcastle and he won nothing then! ashey has been looking to sell up and get the fans onside with his ridiculous king kev and alan smith strips.that said he wasnt daft employing keegan fans favourite,its just sad the nufc fans call him a legend when hes won absoloutely nothing in his managerial career and has walked out of every job hes had. never understood them geordies,strange lot

Matt Tobin (Liverpool fan) says...

YES, YES, YES. . The Dubai group should buy liverpool from the yanks. Then maybe buying players like G Barry, David Villa and David Silva would be a problem. We're going to end up slipping down the table if we cant match the clubs with the money like city and chelsea...

Eddie Peacock (Chelsea fan) says...

I think this shows the english league is the best in the world, man city deserve to have someone as rich as there new owner to take over the club, spurs signed Dos santos i my opition he has the ablity to be the best player in the world. Ronaldo staying at utd. Arsenal selling and not really buying is a loss to the club. I fill they need a keeper, a defender, 2 midfields (central and winger) and a skillfull striker/attacking midfielder. Liverpool should have sign someone else then reira, as he didnt play well at man city, them or Arsenal showed have sign somebody like ricardo quresma. star player who now plays at inter. A big loss in my eyes for the premiership. Good luck to Sunderland who i fill made big singings for a club in there secound season in the new big money top flight.

Yiorgos Kiriakidis says...

Scolari has the right to feel angry over the robinho saga.less than a week ago even with 5 hours to go before the deadline, robinho had been saying for an age that he wanted to join chelsea and his "head is already at chelsea" how come then he decide to go to a relatively (in spain at least) unheard of club. Did he have dreams of playing for manchester city or was it just 'coincidence' that he joined them just after they'd been taken over. absolutely outrageous. just shows the lack of respect for football some players have that, as soon as they see the flash of cash, they are willing to give up all that they hold dear and change. I want him to play well cos then it will make hansen and lawrenson speechless. but hasn't this all happened before to city. they get taken over and buy loads of players and then all they get in return is a eufa cup spot. I think robinho should wake up from his mounds of cash and in a years time he'll eventually realise he should have gone to chelsea.-;-;-;-;-COME ON ACCRINGTON STANLEY!!!-;-;-;-;-

great business done by spurs this summer, especially getting £30.75m for berb, he's only worth half that and wont suit MU style of play. However we shouldnt expect big things this year, it wont b until after xmas that the team will gel
