Mourinho makes his 3rd summer signing... all quite low key and all before the end of the season, bizarre tactics form Real! 
  bizarre why? as they didnt want to make them known to the world and start a bidding war? 
   bizarre because it is the complete opposite of how RM have conducted their transfer business since at least 1999

Rumour is that Aguero is after £110,000 a week, so that'll put the majority of teams off anyway. 
 
Concetrao is a quality player, wouldn't be a surprise to see him join Madrid

£110k isn't going to put off chelsea, city, liverpool imo. 
 
De Gea is almost a done deal for United apparently.

Players I'd LIKE to see come in 
 
Hazard (yes ginger boy he genuinely is as good as the hype) 
Benzema  
Lukaku might be a good shout for his strength if he suppsoedly is the next Drogba but not sure how that would fit into the team 
A big tall strong angry centre back, preferably a member of the serbian mafia (Subotic would be good but i hear he is ratehr a fan of his current team   ) 
Cahill or Jagielka  
 
OUT 
 
Denilson 
Arshavin (if for £££) 
Rosicky ( ) 
Bendtner (if for £££) 
Almunia 
Squillachi 
Eboue ( ) 
   
 
http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_6949875,00.html 
 
Seems he might be after a move to the Prem in the future after all, but has seemingly set his sights on United or Chelsea

I think Hummel's is the better player from Dortmund and whispers he has a £9m buyout clause... really doubt he'll leave them this summer though. 
 
Edit - although that's not to say Subotic wouldn't be a great addition to most starting 11's and i'd have him at Liverpool.

Chelsea (p/x for Torres anyone   ) or Milans IMO, if not Real (would he cross that divide after claiming his lvoe for Atletico?)

I was hoping we would buy him last summer myself. 
 
Tbh his fall from grace has been quite strange this season, especially as he was louded as our most important creative talent ahead of last years World Cup & the stick Fabio Capello got for not Utilising him by the the press. 
 
I don't know whats happened to him this season as he doesn't look like the old Joe Cole.

Hummels has been outstanding this season alongside Subotic.  Arsenal should buy one or both    I'm surprised United don't go after someone though.  Smalling isn't quite ready imo and Evans is pish.  Ferdinand doesn't have much left in the tank.

Ferdinand has been immense since he came back from injury imo, Smalling has far exceeded any expectation anyone had for him too. 
 
If we bought anyone for a CB i would like it to be Phil Jones from blackburn, so we can develop some more exciting young English talent at the club

Can't rely on Ferdinand to stay fit any more.

Di Canio is already working on a link between Swindon and AC Milan   
 
he said he jokingly asked Gailliano if there were any players he could have, Galliano turned round and said, seriously if you want any youngsters we'll have a meeting about it

Really really hope we don't sign this de gea tbh, he's been poor this season and I think, well hope it's a smokescreen for someone else, I'm really hoping it is stecklenberg or however you spell it from Ajax, de gea is too young and will be a massive mistake, 
 
I don't think we need a holding midfield player, I'd play Anderson holding and buy someone attacking, hopefully Schneider (again however you spell it)  
 
Really would like to buy Sanchez and then that's it really, those three would be amazing signings.  
 
Lots of posts on here I want to reply to but on the iPhone so will do later,  
 
Although lol at Liverpool thinking they can attrack a few world class players with no European football

Your looking at it from a scummy manc point of view though. LFC is still an attractive prospect. Who wouldn't want to play for one of the most successful british clubs ever in the greatest league in the world?

Man Utd makes sense. But why Chelsea & Arsenal? 
 
 
Chelsea seem to have massive managerial instability and Arsenal can't win fuck all either

European football. In that case City too, more so than Arsenal seen as they finished above them!
