Your Summer 2005 Transfer Predictions

[JJU]

So who's going where? Is your local team's whizz-kid being courted by a big gun, or is your aging midfield maestro taking a step down the league ladder?

My predictions for summer transfers...

Shaun Wright-Phillips to join Arsenal, spelling the end of Robert Pires, who will in turn be used as a makeweight in deals involving either Michael Essien or goalie Ricardo (not the Man U one who has just been released).

Shefki Kuqi to join Blackburn and give EPL defenders a bruising next year.

Shay Given to leave Newcastle and join either Man Utd or Arsenal.

Reading's Steven Sidwell to join a Premiership team.

[Kiko]

Some Benfica players are wanted by big clubs like juventus chelsea and internazionale.
Luisão-Brazilian defender
Miguel-Portuguese fullback
Petit-Great defensive midfielder-wanted by some spanish clubs like sevilla
Manuel Fernandes-One of the most promising Portuguese player-in 1 year passed from Benfica B team to Portuguese main squad-19 years old-center midfielder

I hope none of these go out because they are some of Portugese league best players

[Wednesdaylad43]

I think Pablo Aimar will make his way to Anfield, and possibly Harry Kewell could side step the other way to pay for it. Rafa has hinted several times he would like Aimar, and I dont blame him really

As for wednesday, I guess who Paul Sturrock brings in will depend on how we fair in todays game

UP THE OWLS!

[manyoolova]

harry kewell to bayern, adriano to chel$ki, fernando torres to chelsea or man u, joaquin to chel$ki, michel essien to man u or arsenal

also, probably vincent kompany moving somewhere

[infusion]

Some of my predictions:-

M.Essien to Chelsea
I.Casillas to Man.Utd
A.Cassano to Juventus
M.Owen to Arsenal/Liverpool(??)
Z.Ibramovic to Real Madrid
Joaquin to Chelsea
Figo to Man Utd/Tottenham


and some stayers:-
S.Wright-Phillips to stay at Man City
S.Gerrard to stay at Liverpool
Adriano to stay at Inter

[manyoolova]

i don't think figo will go to man u, 'cos he is on about 90k a week and is utter :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

[infusion]

its just a wild guess anyway... LOL... cos dere was a rumour sometime ago... abt figo wanting to go to man utd

[Lawrence]

Robbie Keane will go to Celtic
Andy Johnson will go to Tottenham
Figo will move somewhere
Routledge will go to tottenham
Henry will go to Barcelona
Adriano will go to chelsea

[JJU]

Robbie Keane will go to Celtic
Andy Johnson will go to Tottenham
Figo will move somewhere
Routledge will go to tottenham
Henry will go to Barcelona
Adriano will go to chelsea
Maybe
Probably
Past it...
Yes
Joke
Unlikely but money talks!

[Chester Guy]

Chester City to attempt to sign the entire Mansfield town squad. (As our manager used to manage them, and then got rid of 20 of our players when he arrived)

[manyoolova]

Robbie Keane will go to Celtic
Andy Johnson will go to Tottenham
Figo will move somewhere
Routledge will go to tottenham
Henry will go to Barcelona
Adriano will go to chelsea

this lawrence is very sure isn't he?!?!?!

[Dura]

Adriano to Chelsea almost definitley
Owen to Arsenal or Man United
Alan Johnson to either Newcastle or Tottenham
Peter Crouch perhaps to Man City?

Loads of good players will change and i believe Everton will get some great buys!

[JJU]

Real Madrid have said Figo can go, so expect to see him fulfill his 'dream' of a few (well paid) years in England!

[Jaamameez]

Figo going to INTER - i heard .

[manyoolova]

i doubt man u will sign buffon as the only 'keeper in the world that can save man u from certain mediocrity is Petr Cech, and Chel$ki aren't exactly gonna need the $, are they???[/u]

[infusion]

Buffon vs. Cech? But u still gotta admit Buffon's goalie skills are not inferior to Cech in my opinion. Buffon is still the world's top goalie, Cech is catching up.

I seriously doubt Chelsea would let him go over to thier biggest, (or 2nd biggest) rivals to the PREMIERSHIP TITLE.

My guess:- Buffon to Man Utd

[manyoolova]

if he's second best..................although he probably wouldn't be worth it

There's no way Eto'o can come to Trafford right now, and I think it's pretty hard to Owen come too (tough it would be cool :twisted: )...

[JJU]

and from what his agent says, Alexander Hleb (how do you actually pronounce that?!) is on his way to Arsenal. Not seen him play, so not a clue...

Well, I'm not sure, but i've heard he's quite a talented player. Great feet, nice controls.

So, i'd this idea, i went over to my FM2005 game and seach for him. Voila! His stats are quite high on the offensive end, i guess until the Gunners announces him den we can catch a glimpse of his wonderness...

[FCKBO]

Peter Skov Jensen is going to FC København!

[manyoolova]

you pronounce hleb her-lebb, really quickly, so as it is written

[JJU]

macnamara = wolves. Why?
Why not? He's a good player and no offence to Celtic, but I think it'd do him good to spend the end of his career in England. I wanted Arsenal to sign him as a replacement for Lee Dixon!

And Stuttgart will be making an announcement tomorrow with regards to Hleb... I think he's a Gooner...
