[Archived] Other Pl Happenings 2009/10

I'm pretty sure we lost all or most preseason games in 94/95 and won all or most of our preseason games in the season we got relegated.

So far we have a win, draw, draw, loss. Midtable?

I was thinking about the teams.

Nantwich? St Pauli?

Pompey in big trouble !

What odds to them going down?

Paddy Power has em @ 9/2 to go down (7th favorites!)

[Ricky]

Thats not a bad bet at all. If anything goes wrong with the takeover they're screwed. If the takeover goes ahead there isn't going to be any money for big signings so they're screwed again!!

[Hughesy]

So the pompey guy doesnt have big money to spend on players?!

Also - "Aston Villa boss Martin O'Neill wants Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas in a £10m deal.

Full story: The Sun"

£10m?!!??! He is never worth that!!

Well I guess if Young is worth £30m then he is

Pompey taken over officialy.

Another billionaire club

Yet they seem very willing to shift Crouch. Strange move seeing as they have just about lost all their quality players in the last year. Although they did of course bring in Mokoena...

[Tom]

What the hell, Sven to be appointed director of football at Notts county

Also Sunderland drop interest in Crough

[Hughesy]

Pompey need to invest quickly.

They have lost Pennant, Johnson, Davis, Traore & soon to be Crouch.

Aswell as not so long ago losing Diarra & Defoe

They also have a number of players out of contract - Campbell, Kanu etc.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

They'll be fine, they've signed midfield colossus and goal-machine Aaron Mokoena.

[modes98]

I agree, if anyone from pompey is reading then don't buy anyone. You will be fine with the players you've got, but make sure you sell Crouch and don't replace him

[ffan]

Crouch gone to Spurs apparently.

[roversmum]

They're welcome to him. All knees and elbows...

[brian_gallagher85]

Arsenal's hopes of 4th over?

[Hughesy]

Nasri - Broken leg - Big blow for them after selling Adebayor.

I'd suspect asset strippers if the assets had not already been sold.

Think they still own the lawn mower

[Tom]

Eduardo has to get back to his best and Vela has to step up a level.

Both could happen for me and to be honest I hope they do, I like Arsenal and the way they try to play, however the moaning I could do without.

[tcj_jones]

Sky Sports says they only expect him to be out for two - three months. Surely that can't be the case after suffering a broken leg?

I'd presume its because its the fibula not tibia.

[Stuart]

When I watch Crouch, I always imagine one of those old wire coathangers, unwound.

[Eddie]

Just as a note, I played against Chris Mavinga a couple of times when my team played the PSG youth sides and the boy is quick, they could have a real player there.

Couple of Spurs fans seem to think they still have a good chance of landing Huntelaar - appears to be conflicting reports on where he will end up.

Think his waiting for a bigger club than both spuds and Stuttgart

[John]

Surely not, he is ours: According to a report in TZ, Premier League outfit Tottenham Hotspur are considering making a move for highly-rated Bayern Munich attacker Luca Toni.
