Editor Comments:

He's been in very good form and a few clubs may well be looking at him. -Marshy

in_the_know : Abramovic is lining up a bid for Fernando Torres in January if the ban is lifted. He sees Liverpool financial troubles as a way of getting the striker at any cost.

O'Neill keen to deal with City

lukeavfc (Aston Villa) : I have it on very good knowledge that Martin O'Neill is strongly pursuing Martin Petrov and Michael Johnson from Man City. There is also rumours of a swap deal including Heskey, Nathan Delfouneso (Loan) and cash to go to West Ham with Carlton Cole going to Aston Villa.

ONEhopeONElove (Manchester United) : Arsenal to ressurect Ryan Babel's career, the team that he should have joined in the first place! 6.5m would be enough to send Babel bags packed to London. But will happen after the World Cup finals. Make a note!

greengunner (Arsenal) : arsenal to bid for carlton cole and adam johnson

ONEhopeONElove (Manchester United) : David Villa has revealed that his first choice club in England would be Manchester United. Although SAF is hesitant to pay over 30m+ for 27 year-old, 28 before transfer window re-opens. David Silva is a much more attractive option to Fergie. Also players being watched are Luis Suarez and Simon Kjær.

timmers (Manchester United) : Interesting that Villa claims he prefers Man Utd to Chelsea. No mention of Liverpool too. Mus mean he's heading for Man City!

timmers (Manchester United) : I can see Stephen Ireland at Man Utd, if he doesn't get enough starts with City. SAF was all over Ireland during the summer, to replace Scholes.

TAG-56 (Liverpool) : Your all jumping the gun over El Nino let me say this once and once only LIVERPOOL F.C. will not have to sell him if we dont qualify for next stage of C.L.ETC There will be new money in the club before the end of season 100% Rafa will have gone by then king Kenny will take temp charge till "the special one" takes the reins and proves he is "the man" As for Chelski,& Abu City, The Kid will not sign for either of them as he has stated on more than once IF IF IF he left us he could not and would not sign for another PREMIER LEAGUE TEAM end of !! NUFF SAID ON "THE KID" Watch the Upson story I brought you that rumour earlier in the season and it will happen also watch for this one John Arne Riise back in the fold. Out going along with Rafa LUCAS (thank god)Babel Degan Andri (waste of space)Vorinin Dossena Reira and by the look's of it Mach which would be as bad as losing Alonso.

Santaclaus (Manchester United) : NANI ,PARK TO LEAVE UNITED JANUARY AND TO BE REPLACE BY D.SILVA £23m and LUIS SUAREZ £25m

Ireland to join Gunners?

HpSaucy (Portsmouth) : Arsenal to bring in Stephen Ireland because he has handed in a transfer request at Man City. Arsenal are also looking at more players for young squads, players like Chris Eagles(Burnley), Adam Johnson (Boro), George Boyd(Peterborough), Jack Rodwell (Everton) and Jack Collison(West Ham). Arsene Wenger has been given around 35m for January so let's hope he uses it.

hortonrules (Arsenal) : not being funny, but why not make a bid for rio ferdinand and use him as back up he would be good with us, also he is 6"2 and is taller than a few of our players. imagine sagna ferdinand vermaelen clichy. i havent added gallas as i think he will be leaving us soon

Chelsea_FC (Chelsea) : The_Real_Sydney : if liverpool dont beat lyon and fail to make next years CL then torres will be sold. not because torres is willing to leave but because liverpool need to substitue the loss of revenue the CL brings. i fancy him being a barcelona player next year. "Barca aint got the money to buy torres if this is true torres has stated he wouldnt want to leave england and i guess chelsea are ready to give him a bumper offer if MAN CITY arent interested"

ONEhopeONElove (Manchester United) : Manchester united will bid something in the region of 23m for Ajax captain Luis Suarez. Suarez has impressed at Ajax in recent seasons and is also being tracked by Man Citeh and Inter. SAF has been watching him for the entire campaign last season and has also watched him this season. things will develop!

proddywolfloyal (Wolverhampton Wanderers) : Beckford to Wolves in January, Uluwemo going the other way!!!

The_Real_Sydney : if liverpool dont beat lyon and fail to make next years CL then torres will be sold. not because torres is willing to leave but because liverpool need to substitue the loss of revenue the CL brings. i fancy him being a barcelona player next year.

gunnergunudown (Arsenal) : Heard that Rafa is set to jump ships and move back to Spain with Real Madrid. Liverpool, with their financial problems, cannot afford to sack Rafa but if he goes willingly then he gets nothing of course. Mancini is in the running along with Dalglish. Also Di Matteo could be in the running to return to the Premiership with Hull. It remains to be seen if Di Matteo is tempted to move to the EPL for a struggling side or stay with his High flying leaders.

proddywolfloyal (Wolverhampton Wanderers) : Carlton Cole to Liverpool in January, you heard it here first!!!!

Wenger wants more at the back

yonarsenal (Arsenal) : Arsenal to place a bid for Neven Subotic from Dortmund. The central defender is a Serbian (who lived in the U.S) and is being hailed as the next Vidic in his country. He is a giant and in his early twenties much like Vermaelen.

keithers (Manchester United) : Van Der Sar to sign a new one year contract!

kujo12 (Liverpool) : as i said before....rafa benitez to quit liverpool, as their poor performance still continues.king kenny dalglish is more the first option as reds manager.

jajye29 (Chelsea) : Rafa Benitez is in the top of Real Madrid's wanted list
