Memphis Depay has reportedly rejected PSV's new contract offer. Good news for Spurs.

Also, Alex Song is available for transfer, but more importantly free loan from Barca. I bet Levy loves the idea of being able to test him out before committing.

I'd love to have him, but are we the only club trying to buy him?

I didn't think that ManU was in for him this season. Hasn't Van Gaal "advised" him to stay in Holland for another season?

Correct. But screw that! Come on down, Memphis!

I was watching my recording of MOTD and the hosts were ripping into Eriksen and, especially, Lamela. They thought both have no positional awareness, are selfish, and are, in general, horrible players.

I'm not going to agree with that harsh of an assessment but I do believe we still lack a lot of creativity on offense.

MOTD

Not sure what that is. But, seeing Eriksen last season, I can't agree with any of that. And I still think we haven't seen enough of Lamela to make that judgement. In either case, this team is still getting used to one another and a new manager. I think they will gel over time, but we definitely need to improve on creativity.

MOTD = Match of the Day on NBC Sports Network. It's awesome. Show lots of highlights of each game and good analysis in between (usually). I think they are wrong about Eriksen. But Lamela might be somewhat selfish offensively. He was known as a ballstopper at Roma.

that's what I was thinking, but seeing how his location shows up as "Wales", I thought he was referring to something different.

Good point. They might have their own version over there.

yes, they do have a MOTD on BBC. It was the model for the NBCS version.

I love Match of the Day though. It really is able to capture the feel of the games by showing more than just the goals.

Both will start on Sunday. Like I said earlier in the thread, Eriksen was gassed against West Ham. And Ade is still getting his fitness back up from the malaria. Soldado will definitely start tomorrow, and we will be ready for QPR. We are basically two deep with solid talent now. The only problem is we don't have obvious elite starters.

Paulinho is also with the team. Davies will start tomorrow. Vertonghen should also see his first action. Will be a game worth watching.

Amid all the crazy transfer window rumors, one thing is confirmed and that's that Sabatini and Baldini are having dinner together tonight in London.

That would be for the Destro and Soldado swap?

I'd love that. You guys can take the bust.

Lamela and Destro also have a season together, but since I doubt Lamela knows Italian any better than English, they probably weren't best friends.

Lamela's Italian was actually ok. Argentines in general seem to have a pretty easy time picking up Italian when they arrive.

I doubt it will be that sweet for you guys. If Roma is selling Destro it's likely to generate cash for another target. .. Chiriches + cash would seem more likely though Soldado on a loan included isn't out of the realm of possibilities, I suppose though I don't like the sound of that.



The Roma mercato rumors are all the place and crazy right now because no one really has any idea what's happening with Benatia.
