Ronaldo was a sand dancer who flitted in and out for months, just gives them options. I think both he and Tosic are potential first team stars though if the both start producing an end product more regularly.

Fletcher deal completed apparently, hopefully he kicks on be good to see a Scottish striker make it in the EPL again.
Yeah, confirmed Fletcher has signed for £3m. Not seen much of the bloke but the Hibs fans seem to think he is a good player so fingers crossed! Gives us some more attacking options anyway. David Edgar should be signing tomo as he is out of contract from midnight - fee set of a tribunal as he is under 24.
Looks like we are also signing James McCarthy from Hamilton - is he anygood? Seems a few big clubs are after him. Also looks like we are signing Matt Mills from Doncaster, busy for Coyle this week!

Fletcher is a good player, I still think being linked to Real Madrid last year did more harm than good though he's not that prolific but then again neither was Ross McCormack and he scored a barrel load in the Championship last season.
Hope you don't sign McCarthy I'd like him at Celtic

We've been linked with McCarthy in the past, had him down here for a trial a few times IIRC.
They want a stupid amount for him it seems so expect he;ll go to a bigger Scotish team before moving to a proper league.

Boyhood Celtic fan from Castlemilk that chose to play for Ireland over Scotland 
He scored a screamer when he was down at Anfield apparently, Stevie G was impressed. That was a couple of years ago now though I think, he broke through at 15.

Vidic confirms he has had offers from 3 clubs and his wife isnt happy living in Manchester.
He wont go this summer but seems he wont be spending his career there.

He says he will see out his contract until 2012, when he will be 30, so that's not a problem.
He has class by letting Fergie know about the offers and wanting to see out his contract, we may even sell him a year early to get some money back on him, but at 30 it won't be as bad losing him as this summer would

Leto to Panathinaikos in a £3.3m deal.
Im hearing things about a buy back clause and a decent % of any future sale but no idea of figures on there.

Madrid hint at unveiling another signing sometime today, more than likely Arbeloa imo.

Looks like being Benzema now, 50million euros
I fail to see where he will play tbh at them, would have liked to see him come to united but i didnt think we'd get him.
Think real need to concentrate on a defense now tbh

There's only a few £30m+ players left available now augero, ribery, villa....
Madrid buying the competition anyone Surely they can't be recouping all this money on shirt sales, given any fans buying shirts are unlikely to buy all 4 major signings
Who are manure gonna buy now

Which season are you referring to, probably not 2005 as you aint gonna win the CL or anything next year 
Seriously though, if liverpool keep hold of there players it's been a good summer for us, with all this going on!
United to pay over the odds for someone who was probably 4th choice FTW.

Don't get your hopes up about Fletcher mate! He's over-rated as fuck! Some dirty agent trying to make a quick buck told Madrid that he might be the sort of young striker they were looking for with potential. They sent a scout over and I think he was horrified and disgusted that this agent would waste his time like this!

Wolves signing Doyle will be quite a good buy. Ebanks Blake and Doyle as a front two will get goals as long as they have some sort of service of course.

Well all the Hibs fans seem to think Fletcher is a good player so we shall see. Confirmed that we have signed David Edgar from Newcastle on a 4 yr deal, really pleased with that signing looks a good young defender.

Goal every 2nd game when they can be bothered playing him, would be a perfect signing for Man United - a penalty box striker.
