July 11th
Morning and a happy Monday to you all.
We’ll start with Shaun Wright-Phillips. He’s been linked with the club for a long time and Arsene Wenger again reiterated his admiration for the player but said any move by Arsenal would have to wait for Chelsea to show their hand. He says “I like him but we are in a market where you let Chelsea make decisions and then come in after. There is a price for Chelsea and a price for everybody else and that is why we have to wait until they decide.”
I do see where he’s coming from but I don’t see why it depends so much on them. If we want the player we could make an offer. Citeh must know that they’ll get more money from Chelsea because they’ve got more money than anyone else in the football world but at the same time a realistic offer from us might work. On the other hand though no matter what we bid Chelsea can double it because they’re such fucking cunts. So Wright-Phillips is on the radar and the boss reckons things will pick up in the next week or so, saying “The transfer market has been much quieter than expected but at the moment, it looks like everybody is in the starting blocks and, with the heat of my phone, it looks like it will start soon.”
Only days after being baffled The Sun reports that Patrick Vieira is now ‘bemused’ about the constant speculation linking him with moves to Juventus and Real Madrid. Tomorrow it’s thought he’ll be ‘bewildered’, by Thursday he’ll be ‘bothered’ and this time next week he’s likely to be ‘befuddled’.
Beastwatch: Nada de nada. Actually, he’s decided to stay in Spain according to the Daily Mail because he wants to gain his dual nationality. I couldn’t find any mention of that in the Spanish papers today though.
And that’s it. The start of another exciting working week. Woooo and indeed hoooooo.
