One player sure to be high on everybody's list, Zat Knight that is

A few players have hithered and thithered about since the turn of the year but, after a fairly dormant month on the transfer front and with only 385,589 precious seconds left until the January window SLAMS SHUT is closed carefully and contentiously by the relevant personnel, we impatient fools at Pies reckon it's high time to start making big things happen in our minds.

Hi guys, I was watching the Napoli v Roma derby yesterday,and I haven't watched Roma play for a good couple of years and to my surprise with along with young talents like Bojan in their team Totti was playing.Yes at the grand old age of 35 Francesco Totti was starting and captaining Roma.At the heart of AS Roma's attacking threat Totti was there.

We have a mouth watering prospect of a game on Saturday night as Inter Milan take on Napoli at the San Siro. Both teams are coming off an almighty high in the Champions league as Inter Milan won away in Russia at CSKA Moscow and Napoli comfortably won 2-0 at home against Spanish side Villarreal. This is going to be Claudio Ranieri first home game as tenure as Inter Milan and he is hoping for a.

Gazzetta dello Sport Ranieri, this is how I'll change Inter Pazzini and Sneijder at the centre of the plans A four-man defence and diamond midfield Possible surprise with return of Muntari New Coach held his first training session: 'Remember this team was born to win' A month without Pato, Milan look to the Little Pharaoh Juve, it's time for Quagliarella and Elia Roma.

Frustrated Forlan alongside triumphant Miccoli
The Serie A has been dominated by the two main Milanese clubs for a bit more than half a decade. While they have had some testing competition by the likes of Roma and Juventus, the past ten years have seen AC Milan or Inter Milan win the scudetto seven times.

Gasperini aveva una sola richiesta ed era un consiglio per tutti coloro che criticavano le sue scelte tattiche, essenzialmente la difesa a tre e la partenza dai box di Sneijder: più o meno le sue parole facevano così "prima osservate, poi criticate". E adesso si può davvero criticare, o comunque analizzare seriamente questa dubbia difesa, [.

Empezó ya la Serie A este viernes con el Milan vs Lazio, partido bueno por momentos pero que no convence por completo y continuará este fin de semana la fecha dos, ya que al igual que en España, la primera fue pospuesta por huelga.
La que fuera la primera en el mundo, ya no lo es en éstos días.

That facial expression on Wesley Sneijder screams :"What?! Another question about Man United...?" Get over it, Inter needs him more than any other club at this moment to provide support to Diego Forlan, of course! Yes, in case you were watering your plants excessively on transfer deadline day, the Uruguayan has officiated his move from Atletico Madrid to Inter.

Just look at him, the dirty flirt!

Wes Sneijder has been busy this morning, cork-screwing his metaphorical dagger into the hearts of thousands of Manchester United fans across the globe by regaling Dutch daily AD with tales of just how close he came to turning up at Old Trafford over the summer:

"I just felt that it was close, yes [I thought I was going to join Manchester United].

Sneijder's Hannibal Lecter impression, AVB tells Cole to cut out the fags and Ken Bates' Daily Mail-esque rant

Andre Villas-Boas' Chelsea revolution doesn't stop with a long list of transfer targets and a possible move away from 4-3-3. Ashley Cole, reportedly a 20-a-day smoker, has been told that his habit will no longer be indulged as it was by AVB's predecessor, the fag-loving Carlo Ancelotti.

The summer transfer window will soon be slammed shut. Rumours will escalate in the next two weeks but as usual, very few will have genuine substance so they should be taken with a large grain of...

The Premier League kicks off tomorrow and while many of you must be wondering "Soooo?", here are some fun stats for your perusal. In transfer news, did you know Fabregas was the most tweeted player during the season break? Sneijder and Tevez came in second and third respectively while seemingly (everyone) well, 165,000 of them, spent the last season looking for Ryan Giggs' shirt.

Can we convince the Government that inane transfer speculation during what is laughably called the off-season (no competitive football being played, but let's not stop that from having football on about 2/3 of the sports pages in June & July), please? Maybe make it so we can make new signings first seen on August 10th or something?

According to several tabloids and not so tabloids, the Inter midfielder might be on his way to Old Trafford in the next 48 hours. The rumours have been aided and abetted by Sneijder who in an interview admitted he was interested in joining Utd but also said that there was no official contact between both clubs.

Sneijder-United: l'amore sta per avere la sua consacrazione ufficiale. In Inghilterra sono sicuri, l'olandese diventer un Red Devil e il Daily Mirror si sbilancia: la chiusura avverr entro 48 ore. I procuratori dell'olandese sono attesi a Milano per avere il via libera dall'Inter a trattare con gli inglesi.

Il primo trofeo della stagione, la Supercoppa Italiana 2011-2012, è del Milan che, in rimonta, piega con il risultato di 2 a 1 i cugini dell'Inter e conquista il prestigioso trofeo nello stadio nazionale di Pechino. Non basta un buon primo tempo all'undici di Gasperini, coronato dal vantaggio firmato Sneijder (forse uno degli ultimi goal [.

"We are looking at one more player to bring in, nothing is happening and nothing is imminent but we will see what happens when we get home.

The players have had their time off, been on their holidays, have relaxed away from football and are about to spend their final weekend together with friends and families before the new beginning starts at Cobham this week.
It's been a time to reflect for all of us fans on the previous season, on Carlo leaving, on the constant speculation regarding who the manager was going to be, the names we have been linked with from Neymar to Sneijder, Modric to Falcao and others.

Hello from a smokey NC backyard- seriously, the fires supposedly originated in the Outer Banks but we're seeing some serious smoke here in the Triangle. Anyways, it's T minus 9 days until the transfer window in England officially opens and we're still seeing the same reports regarding the same players we've linked to all summer so far.
