Bayern Finally Agree Deal For Neuer
1 June 2011

Soccernet.com
ESPNsoccernet Staff

Manuel Neuer will play for Bayern Munich from next season after a fee was agreed with Schalke.

He had been linked with Manchester United but the goalkeeper always made it clear he wanted to remain in Germany.

He will officially sign a five-year contract with the Bavarians once he undergoes a medical upon his return from international duty, and become a Bayern player on July 1.

a Schalke fan slapping him certainly didn't help, he is absolute world class (on my FM team) so I assume he is very good

From what I have seen last year at the WC and this year in a few games he could be one of the world's best

Van Nistelrooy heads to play for Malaga.

City might just buy a whole city to play for them. I think they're preparing to purchase a medium sized Spanish town.

City already is mental, dont they have like a thousand players? Players want to be bought by City, get paid City wages that are UNREAL, and then loaned out to a team that they actually want to play for.

about Rossi

Quote:
Garrido says every player has their price and will use any money from this sale on strengthening his Villarreal squad.
“Officially I know nothing,” Garrido said. “But so many rumours want to say something. All players have their ambitions and needs to be addressed.
“If you get an offer that is good for Villarreal it will be accepted and the player will be thanked for all their efforts.
“From there, we will hire players who want to do even better for Villarreal.”

Yeah right! According to Darren Bent, Villa is a big time club. And when has Darren Bent been completely wrong about anything?

They paid a lot of money for Darren Bent. Remember when Gabriel Agbonlahor was going to be the next Micheal Owen? I think Villa probably have more potential than Fulham, but thats about it. Maybe he thinks he can snatch up some players from Birmingham that dont want to leave town.

The statue of Micheal Jackson is a good enough reason to leave all on its own.

We Run The Rule Over Canadian Starlet David Hoilett

2 June 2011

Sky Sports Scout

Despite skirting with relegation last season, Blackburn were able to see one of their own products blossom in David 'Junior' Hoilett.

Hoilett excelled under Steve Kean and we check on just how good the Rovers forward is.

Hoilett is Canadian born, and although excelling at the usual North American sports, it was football he truly blossomed at as a youngster.

Starlet also linked with Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham, although father urges son to follow in footsteps of Theo Walcott with move to the Emirates Stadium.

Mark Chamberlain, the father of Southampton starlet Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, has urged his son to join Arsenal.

The north London club had come close to a £10 million deal in January for the highly rated 17-year-old, whilst there continues to be interest from Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham for the youngster’s services.

Despite Southampton’s recent promotion to the Championship, Oxlade-Chamberlain looks set to leave the club this summer, and his father has expressed his desire to see his son follow in the footsteps of former Saints academy graduate Theo Walcott and sign for the Gunners.

Wegner In Need Of A Tall Order

2 June 2011

The Sun

ARSENE WENGER admits he will look to sign a tall, commanding centre-half over the summer.

The Arsenal boss saw his side ship the highest number of points from headers than any other side in the Premier League last season.

"We conceded very few goals from open play, most of them were from set pieces in a way you don't want to concede goals.

"It's something that's easy to correct. We need to improve the size of our squad. We need a bigger variety in the height of our players.

Arsene Wegner Reveals He Will Targer Tall Players In The Summer & Insists Arsenal Are 'Close' To Winning The Premier League

2 June 2011

Goal.com
Aaron McLoughlin

After six trophyless years at the Emirates, the Frenchman says he will look to sign taller players in an attempt to win silverware, but insists he will not change his philosophy.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that he will be looking at tall players to improve his squad over the summer.

The Gunners conceded 43 goals in the Premier League last season, and Wenger believes the height of his squad must be improved if they are to mount a serious challenge for the title next season.

This comes after the Gunners boss also admitted he must spend this summer after a disappointing end to the season, finishing fourth in the table and being knocked out of the Champions League by eventual winners Barcelona.

Wenger told reporters: "We need to improve the size of our squad. We need a bigger variety in the height of our players.
