I'm livin in buenos aires, argentina at the mo, and have been following the Argentine "Apertura" closely. Gago is ready and willing to move abroad, 100% to Madrid, where he will demonstrate the qualities I have seen with my own eyes. Higuian is far too raw still, has only played about 35 games for river. He is far from being river's best player. I do not believe he will leave til the summer, despite the machinations of his father, as river are desperate to hang on to him for a while.
ciaoAFC NEWS ,
Senderos, hoyte, aliadiare,poom 2 leave arsenal come january . As 4 baptist who again wasn't used against PORTO expect him 2 leave at the end of the season , but with WOODGATE doing well in the EPL and REAL MADRID not needing him WOODGATE just might go 2 ARSENAL as a exchange 4 Reyes when Baptist decides 2 leave which could even be in january .Arsenal News: "Thierry Henry insists Arsenal can live without him and he's no regrets about his training ground bust-up with Arsene Wenger." This sentence will bring the end of Henry at emirates stadium and Barca, Real, AcMilan all are lining up of rhis services. expect this to happen this Jan.Robert Earnshaw will join Sunderland rather than West Brom as he feels the Baggies are a nothing team going nowhere !Villa news.

solano will move into the defence next year due to his performances over the last couple of weeks.
expect a top 7 finish this season the toon are back on track + they will win the league cup this year bigup the toonLooking at the bigger picture here. Rangers are the only team to contact Hibs on Scott Brown and soon after he hands in a transfer request. So im not going to say its a rumour because its more or less stating the obvious, Scott Brown to Rangers in January. They will aslo get one of Russell Anderson or Steven Pressly to help shore up at the back. Finally to the Celtic fans, who think Beckham will move to Celtic, thank you for cheering me up. I hadnt had much to laugh about until now!The rumours of the following players joining English Clubs are Miles Untrue!
And if they do move to other clubs it will probably be to:
Van der Vaart - Valencia, Bayern, AC Milan or Barcelona
Klose - AC Milan, Barcelona or Valencia
Torres - Valencia, AC Milan, Barcelona or Real Madrid
Huntelaar - AC Milan, Inter, Barcelona or Valencia
Ribery - Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter or AC Milan
Higuian - Real Madrid, Barcelona or AC Milan
Gago - Real Madrid
Anderson (the brazilian, not that scottish dud) - Barcelona, Inter, AC Milan or Real Madrid
Daniel Alves will move to Barcelona in the summer once he qualifies for Spanish Citizenship- - MCFC NEWS - - man city are the subject of take over deal and this will happen with out a doubt. SWP will stay at chealse until summer, by this time we will be under new investment, we will sign SWP for around 9mil also we will keep distin as he feels that the club can now progress. if the take over happens before january window we will sign - klasnic weder bremen. also a new centre mid who can push forward more as dabo doesn't giv this option. eddyCeltic have had scouts on these 3 stars antony stokes , andriy voronin and croatian superstar mladen petricOLD FIRM NEWS

KallonJarko wiss is signing for coventry in a deal worth to be about 400K, (scoop of the season from vauxhall motors)When liverpool get their dubai investment they will finally start to spend big expect - micah richards - £12, SWP - £9.5, Curtis davis - £5m Giles Barnes£-2m, Darren Bent - £12m, simao- £7mEverton FC boss D.Moyes could be set to steal Portsmouth midfielder manuel fernandes who has been recomended by Nuno Valente as a possible loan move as he seeks a starting position which he is not getting a portmouth.Steven Pressley and Vladimir Romanov have clashed over Pressleys 'racism' towards Hearts Lithuanian players. Romanov believes that Elvis singled out the Lithuanians after bad team performances but would ignore other players poor performances. Romanov also believes that Pressley refered to one Lituanian as a refugee and this was the final straw for the power mad owner.Although Djibril Cisse's career at Anfield was considered by many as poor, there has been talk of Arsene Wenger taking a punt on the Frenchman in the summer. He feels his game is more suited to Arsenal and would like him to link him up with Henry. The player is surplus to requirements at Liverpool, so it all depends on the players recovery from injury and progress at French outlet Marseille.With DIC's investment about to happen anytime Rafa Benitez is now checking to see who he can buy.
January their will be 30 million to spend:
Micah Richards 5mil + Bellamy
David Villa 25mil + Kewell + possibly Aurelio
Summer signings:
Torres 30 mil?
Aaron Lennon 15mil
Our spending power won't be anywhere near chelseas because DIC have said there not willing to waste money like chelsea e.g SWP and Shevchenko!FOOTBALL NEWS

Pardew will have a large budget, but I expect him to go for some experienced players, to help out the young talent.Pards feels that the youngsters have been found out, after doing so well last term.I expect Danny Mills to fill the right-back spot.Also, Matty Upson will sign.
