They have Stuart Taylor who is fantastic, maybe he will actually get a chance now.

I wonder will Beckham go, I think it will be a huge decision for him and he wont want to leave.

Nah Arsenal will buy someone French.

Ipswich have excepted a £750,000 offer from Portsmouth for Matt Holland. That is a great deal for Portsmouth

30 million pounds?? Where does Barcelona get all that money from?

The case Beckham will be a nice one this summer. Everyone wants to see what he's gonna do. Personally I'd like him to say with Manchester United (and I personally think he will).

Barcelona obviously has a good source of money, either that or they are simply taking a risk.
As usual there's more about the Beckham story again today, linking him with a possible move to Barcelona again. However, Beckham's agent Jon Holmes has said that Beckham wants to stay with Man. United.
Just another point, if Beckham wants to play in the Champions League next season then he'd be a fool to move to Barcelona, seeing as they're currently 8th, 8 points away from 4th with two games to go in the season.

David Seaman has been signed by Man City, I dont know if thats such a good move, replace a keeper by an older keeper?

IMO the two keepers are just about as good as each other at this time in their careers, but I wouldn't sign Seaman at all if I was in charge of Man. City. The deal is for a one year contract anyway, so City will most likely be replacing him in the near future. The only logical reason I can think of for City making this move is that they want Seaman's European experience for their UEFA Cup campaign next season. He's out of contract anyway, so it's costs City nothing.

I have a feeling Arsenal will sign another keeper to replace Seaman, and that new keeper will battle it out with Taylor for the #1 position.

I wouldn't be surprised if they did!

That's definitely a great signing for Portsmouth.


Man. City have been quite busy over the last few days. Not only have they signed Seaman, they've also agreed a deal with Bayern Munich to sign Michael Tarnat (33). Another older player for City and again free.

Who's the latest player to be linked with United then ...... Nemanja Vidic, a 21 year old Serbia & Montenegro defender. There has been no concrete offer made so far.

Also David Moyes could make a £5.5 million offer to Blackburn for David Dunn. Everton are the favourites to sign Dunn after Birmingham's earlier offer was rejected. Dunn is very likely to leave Blackburn as he fell out with Souness earlier in the season.

I bet his wages are high

Yeah, in that respect it's not so good for City.

Another rumour that has been going around lately ... Patrick Kluivert moving to United and playing with Van Nistelrooy ...

I personally don't think it's going to happen (although you never should say "never"), but what do you all think of the idea?

He still plays for Barcelona right? If so then maybe he could be part-exchange for Beckham if that deal was to go through (though I doubt it).

I think it could be a good move. Kluivert's a good player, though he'd have to fight for a place. He's not to old either so it could work.

The words title and easy come to mind.

I cant see Kluivert moving but it would be great to see him play alongside Van Nistlerooy
