We've all been there. It's the last minute and your team is clinging on to a vital, undeserved
win away from home. You stand and bellow support for your lads with their backs against the walls,
frantically throwing themselves in front of every ball headed toward the goal to break your
heart.

After a week of recriminations for the selección, Diego Maradona travels to Europe to bang some
heads together and break the news to some players that he'll be picking Argentine-based players
over them in future. All the same, there's some food for thought for him ('thought', Diego: that's

Unlike last year, when summer transfer deadline day saw some records broken and millions upon
millions of pounds change hands, things were a lot quieter this time around.
But as always, it's just as much about who didn't move as it is about who did move, and there
were plenty of misses to go with the hits.

The summer transfer window is coming to a close, and there looks to be a flurry of activity
still yet to come before the window shuts.
There are still quite a few deals that are up in the air with the deadline approaching, and
you've got to be on the lookout for at least a couple of surprises and some nutty speculation from
here, there, and everywhere as the hours tick down.

The football community is abuzz with last Tuesday's unexpected episode of hooliganism at Upton
Park, the Championship League draw, and some excellent football matches this weekend. There's also
the 'over-the-top' outrage at Eduardo winning a soft penalty against Celtic and for our money, the
press has in the past and always will make a mountain out of nothing for a story.

The big clubs have been relatively quiet recently, but it looks like things are picking up on
that front as the end of the summer transfer season edges nearer.
Another long-running transfer saga has bitten the dust, as Wesley Sneijder's
future has been resolved, and though it may not be the ending that he wanted in the beginning, it's
the one that works out best for him.

After giving you a rundown of the latest transfer news and rumors earlier today, I'm back this
evening with another fresh batch of signings and speculation.
Despite an extremely impressive performance in holding Liverpool to a solitary goal in their
surprise win at Anfield on Monday, Martin O'Neill is making it a priority to bolster Aston Villa's
defense before the close of the summer transfer window, and he's close to making at least one new
back line signing, if not more.

So, Joleon Lescott is offically on his way from Everton to Manchester City, after numerous
headlines over the past several weeks stating how close the move was to happening, what fee it'd
be, and so on and so forth.
In the end, Everton get a truckload of money, so does Lescott, Mark Hughes gets his man, and we
get to add Lescott's name to our summer transfer lists.

It's the weekend again, so it's time to turn the focus to the action on the pitch, but there's
still a fair share of gossip to report on from the transfer pages.
The current holder of 'The Rumor That Won't Go Away' title is the Joleon Lescott to Manchester
City saga, but another situation that persists involves Chelsea and AC Milan striker
Alexandre Pato.

When you follow up a loss at home to a supposedly inferior side by conceding a goal inside the
first minute of your next match, it doesn't speak too well of your defense, and with that in mind,
Martin O'Neill is hard at work looking for back line reinforcements to help Aston Villa right the
ship while there's still plenty of time to.

It looks like Benitez has worked around the financial constraints imposed upon him to find his
man to fill Liverpool's apparent need for a new center back, and he's not the Premier League
manager adding (or trying to add) quality depth to his squad.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have finally managed to offload one of their surplus strikers, but are they
trying to bring in a new one just as quickly?

Monday was another light day on the transfer news and rumors front, but we still do have some
top clubs looking to make reinforcements before time runs out.
Defense is still the order of the day, as a few Premier League clubs are in the market for
additions at the back, while a couple of top European clubs are looking to add some quality on the
flanks.

There's definitely some sort of cosmic karmic balancing force at work in the English Championship.
Last season we had the infamous phantom goal, which ref Stuart Atwell awarded to Reading despite
the ball not coming anywhere near crossing the line. And this season we have "the goal that never

All of three divisions under the Premiership in England began their seasons this weekend. The

We're less than a week away from the start of the new Premier League season, and though many
clubs have solidified their squads for the most part, there are still a lot of moves to come in the
next three weeks before the summer transfer window closes.

while Hull City are picking up some real steam in the transfer market after hitting brick wall

How good of an investment is bringing in an highly-talented but oft-injured player for 20m? Rafa
Benitez won't find that out for a month or two, what with new signing Alberto
Aquilani on the shelf for the start of the season.
Liverpool aren't the only Premier League side bringing in a big-name Italian import this summer,
as West Ham could be set to bring in one of their own before the window closes at the end of this
month.

An A for an A, a tooth for a tooth?
Excuse the weak comment there, but it is early, so I won't be at my cleverest for another few
hours or so. That being said, Liverpool have sold an A(lonso) and are immediately replacing him
with an A(quilani), with money still to spare.
That's the big news of the morn, but at least a few deals should filter through the wires
throughout the day, which will give us a few more names to add to our summer transfer lists.

Often enough, asking nicely is the key to getting something that you want, and it looks like
that might be the case with soon-to-be former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso,

Madrid.
