Is that Man City AFR? Is something up with Shinawatra? I heard on UTV them mentioning something yesterday, but didn't get the gist of it really. From Day One I've been thinking Citeh would rue the day that lad got involved. He was involved in discussions with Liverpool !! *shudder*

Berbatov, Villa, Huntelaar and Benezma were the ones I heard .
Henry is a bluff, 20 m for player thats 31 and who was "only" worth 12-15 just over a year ago. Not gonna happen, plus the last thing Henry needs is a large signing on fee, contract payoff while he is fast approaching the divorce court.

Word on the street is that Berbatov's a done deal bar the finer details.  Huggy Bear told me at lunch time.

From Sky Sports

David Silva's agent has told Sky Sports News that Valencia have turned down an offer from Manchester United.

Premier League champions United have been linked with a £20million bid for Silva as Sir Alex Ferguson looks to add to his squad before the close of the transfer window.

Domestic rivals Liverpool have also been mooted as admirers of the Spain international, who impressed during his country's successful Euro 2008 campaign.

Reports have suggested that the winger could be sold to ease Valencia's financial problems, with Barcelona also linked with a bid.

Silva has admitted that he has 'no desire' to move to England and would prefer to join Barcelona, if he were to leave Valencia.

And, despite acknowledging United's offer, the player's agent Julio Llorente has confirmed the 22-year-old wants to stay in Spain.

Settled
"Manchester United made an offer for David Silva, but this has been turned down by Valencia," Llorente told Sky Sports News in a statement.

"Silva doesn't want to play in England because he is happy at Valencia.

"His family are settled and if he was to move it would only be to another Spanish club, like Real Madrid or Barcelona.

"David Silva will start the new season at Valencia."


Suprised Fergie went for him if this is correct
Wouldnt class him as a striker as such - seems to play more behind the front men

Like Henry I expect that this is one of those screens of smoke or whatever you call them... their man is in the bag, just finalizing the small print

[EC Unique]

Berbatov will sign within the next day or 2

Huggy Bear only speaks the truth.....
