Adebayor on loan is always a great signing tho

Sassasin are you surprised that the big Cork rumour appeared and he signed about a day later? I mean it's not really in the papers and I only found out when it was mentioned on the live blog today that it happened three loving days ago.

e; and Turgott and Fanimo are gone. Fanimo's claim to fame is he scored 4 in an u21 game once when Ravel was dicking on everyone.

Zarate is better than Adebayor but isn't over 6 ft and can do a stepover so Fat Sam shipped him out on loan

He'd been linked for a while. I always thought it was just cause his Dad used to manage the club, but Monk was apparently monitoring him.

It looks like he and Southampton had a falling out over his new contract and both parties stormed off and forced through the move really quickly. There wasn't that couple of weeks of negotiating back and forth where the papers usually catch wind of things from mouthy secretaries and agents trying to start a bidding war.

Allegri has to have his man. He'll manage to pull that turd with him wherever he goes.

Milan have signed balding trashman Gabriel Paletta from Parma, who have lost most of their good players this window and are very obviously getting ready for Serie B.

He'll win every header though. Big Younes will be knocking them back up field for Big Andy then come sprinting upfield so you concede after Big Ade loses possession.

Oor Coohoolie.
It's not bold yet, but it seems highly likely that in addition to having secured Graeme Shinnie on a precontract, Aberdeen FC are probably going to sign St Mirren's Kenny McLean for a six-figure fee and Dortmund's Lukas Culjak on a free.

If anyone cares.
