The 10 O’Clocker: Carlos Tevez, Kaka & Other Late Night Larks

Good Evening,

Silly season is upon us so the evening shift grinds grunts and spits out some transfer rumour flavoured gems for your delectation before rolling over to blissfully snore.

In keeping with the increased intensity of rumour mongering, lies, made up mayhem and general guff I think a nightly evening session may well be in order. I guess we’ll find our own way, eh?

Carlos Tevez according to Dragon1 is Arry’s ‘special player’. This is an ambitious one to put it mildly. It’s difficult to believe the Sheikh Mansour Mob will wear this one.

There’s no doubt that Adebayor has made a sizable impact at The Lane and despite City’s cracking season I can see little merit in them agreeing to let him play for any other Premiership outfit. And then there’s the wages. And his mental condition. And that whole made up I miss my family business. No, I think we can pop that one back in the old ‘ambitious’ file.

Kaka all set and primed to become this window’s Torres. Or indeed Rossi. Or who was that other chump we were endlessly linked with? Oh yes, Leandro Damiao. Opensaysme believes we want him on loan for the rest of the season.

What are the odds? Well the value of the player has slumped from £58M to gawd knows what due a similar nose dive in form. Will the once great man be nudged out of the Bernabeu? I think he will. Will he opt to join a tougher league with the world’s press watching every move? I think he will not. 

Charlie we hear wants first team football in order that his profile is raised prior to the Euros. Ain’t life grand. Gone then are the days where footballers wanted first team action in order to demonstrate how well worth wearing the shirt they were.

Given Chas can’t make it past Kyle Walker the suggestion by Archibald that his agent has begun touting his client make sense. Roma has been suggested in every publication and periodical from the South China Morning Post to the Walford Gazette.

    Anybody know what time the coaches leave WHL tomorrow for Swansea and whether you can buy tickets for them on the day? Car issues have meant I have to look for alternative travel arrangements. Any info on this would be most helpful. Cheers.

    I love the transfer window

    • Nana Redknapp says:

      yer in January maybe but come summer things are gonna be a tad more uncomfortable

      I think its pretty certain that modric will leave in the summer (unless we win the prem… ;P) and if so then Bale our remaining world class talent may also accept an offer to go play with the (currently) bigger boys

      however if harry/levy were to sign one or even TWO! more top class players then maybe even if modric does leave then maybe we might still be able to enter next season with our hearts still in tact….

        I think as far as Modric is concerned, it’s a question of money. If he were playing for Barca or RM, and we offered to double his wages, he would be only to happy to change clubs IMHO.

        How do we keep him if it’s all about money? Pay him a big bonus every time we reach the group stages of the CL.

  • Nana Redknapp says:

    kaka or HIguain we need someone big, Bigger than modders he may not feel so lofty anymore..

  • Razspur says:

    The Croat will be gone, so will Ade (unfortunately) but lets enjoy them while they`re here. We`ve got time to plan and make replacements, with Sandro/Parker as DM duo Daws back to his best, Vertonghen steel at the back and a new striker we can take on Europe`s best with confidence. We are the boys from White Hart Lane. COYS.

  • gog says:

    I had hoped we would get the Modders replacement and a Striker this January.. Leandro Damaio/Cisse(Not keen on ACN players because they get injured) and Milan Badelj/Kovacic Dynanmo (are out of CL now so they may sell one of them,then Luka can help bed them in and piss off to Chelski Manure or which ever Top club he wants.)
