january 16th
Morning all, another working week begins. Yesterday was a relatively slow day in terms of news.
We had Arsene Wenger saying he hoped talks regarding Thierry Henry’s new contract would be completed within weeks while there was fresh speculation – all on the part of the players agent, of course – regarding Tomas Rosicky. I’d be very surprised if anything was to come of this. Apparently he was somebody we were looking at in the summer but went with Hleb instead and now that Hleb has scored a goal he’s fantastic and not poo at all.
And there’s really not much else going on. No doubt we’ll hear more about the Walcott deal this week but a couple of Liverpool and Chelsea sites have already reported our £12m bid failed. If the player is set on joining us then I very much doubt Southampton have rejected that amount of money when he could leave via tribunal in a couple of months. We shall see.
Right. I’m off to work. Till tomorrow.
