Nah, doubt it'll be anything to do with Vidic, just a nice sweetner to help the lads settle in

No way are they strange buys. Tosic is a 21 year old left winger (something we've not had in 15 years) and is expected to get some prem games under his belt at the back end of the season. Given how long it took Vidic to settle in after a Jan move, its a fair idea to give him time to settle first.

Ljajic is 17 and on the verge of the Serbian national squad, potentially one of the best young midfielders in Europe, staying out there to get a bit more experience (not gonna find it easy breaking through at united yet with a strong centre mid)
Well based on this reasoning i'd say fair enough buys then, good stuff my fellow city mate.

Meanwhile, whites game was called off pretty late today - I believe my mates were already in Colchester :wacko:
Yeah heard about this, ridiculous, it's one thing to give a pitch a chance to thaw out or whatever, it's another thing to call the game off an hour before kick off, I'd be very pissed off if that was me.

Aye, spoke to one of the lads who wasn't best pleased, but they all hopped along to Ipswich-Chesterfield so at least the day wasn't a total write-off

Almunia's interim captain, no way he's buying given to replace him now. In fact if you read Peter Hill-Wood's quotes today expecting him to buy anyone might be a bit of a reach now.
Reports in Italy suggest Torino's Alessandro Rosina will be joining you guys.

Smitteh has had the week from hell, injury to Watto and defeat to Citeh. *hugz*

I take that is not a good thing (football aside)?

Glad to see Saints get convincingly beaten by United today. Was a pleasure watching it in a pub full of Saints fans.

Sending-off was entirely deserved, horrible challenge.

Sounds like Lucas Niell might be off to join Kewell at Galatasaray. No doubt many EPL followers will be pleased?

BARNES OUT
Hughes is out to spend 18m+Ben Haim on Santa Cruz, plus 12m for Scott Parker.

What the **** ****. I can understand looking for players with proven PL records, but honestly, what is Parker going to add to the side? Santa Cruz I suppose, but that's a lot for a 29yo when Podolski is apparently available for around 12m....

agreed Parker is **** and he's worse than the midfielders we have currently.
