Robbie Keane is headed back to White Hart Lane after Liverpool and Tottenham have agreed to a transfer fee. How many players left Tottenham last summer only to come back in January ?

Looks like Chelsea are trying to get Ricardo Quaresma from Inter and who knows if Arsenal will land Arshavin, that saga has been going on for far to long as Zenit are asking for more money than the Gunners are willing to pay.


Too many. Tottenham are a club in crisis. Too many different people trying to run a club. Of course Harry would want Defoe. He did buy him for Portsmouth. Robbie Keane is coming back for less than he left for. Liverpool was a bad decision on his part.

Chelsea need a real winger. Joe Cole is out and Malouda has been lackluster. The sticking point between Arshavin isn't Zenit anymore, the agreed a fee, now it is his wage demands. Wenger won't pay him what he wants.

He's already had a physical and agreed personal terms. Zenit want half of his signing bonus for allowing him to break his contract.

The BBC has confirmed Chelsea have signed Ricardo Quaresma on a loan deal I believe untill the end of the season. Loads of rumors out there in regards to Arshavin but apparently the word from Moscow is that the teams have concluded a 4 year deal but that is not confirmed at this point.

How much did Liverpool pay for Keane ? wasn't it around 20 million pounds ? I do not think Liverpool has what it takes to win the league this year, I just can't see them catching Man U.

We agree on Malouda - I'm surprised by his averageness thus far.

I haven't read that. This is what I read

Transfer Rumours on 4thegame.com

Arsenal's bid to sign Andrei Arshavin looks like it will be confirmed on Tuesday morning. Reports suggest that he has already passed a medical at the club, with terms having been agreed with Zenit St Petersburg. The transfer window has now closed, but agent Dennis Lachter claimed: "It was completed in extra-time but we must wait for confirmation." The Russian midfielder had travelled to London on Sunday evening in anticipation of a move to the Emirates Stadium. However, reports claimed on Monday morning that the 27-year-old playmaker had begun the journey back to Russia after failing to agree personal terms over his long-running switch to Arsenal. That now appears to have not been the case.

Liverpool paid 20.3 million pounds and sold him back for 15, so in 6 months Liverpool have decreased his value by $10 million. That is unreal.

BBC SPORT | Football | My Club | Arsenal | Arshavin agent hopeful over move
It was understood that Arsenal had agreed a fee with Zenit, during which time Arshavin, one of the stars of Euro 2008, accepted personal terms and passed a medical.

The Associated Press and Reuters then claimed the deal collapsed when the clubs could not reach agreement.

Reports said the move broke down over the size of the fee and compensation Zenit would be paid for allowing Arshavin to break his contract.

Doesn't really matter. I just hope it's done.

He was one guy that I said he will be great in the Prem. He has been average at best. He reminds me of Alexander Hleb from Arsenal. Good in other leagues but doesn't have the physical presence to make it in the Prem.

Most of the reports are saying that the FA will allow the transfer to go through. We will see.

Sky Sports | Football | News | Arshavin conclusion on hold

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is confident a deal to sign Andrei Arshavin will go through, but the Premier League is not expected to ratify the switch until Tuesday.

The transfer isn't listed on the official Prem site.

Maybe tomorrow this month long saga will be over. God knows this has been beaten to death.

Aston Villa advance in the FA Cup after beating Doncaster 3-1. Derby and Blackburn also advanced beating Nottingham Forest and Sunderland respetively. Everton defeated Liverpool 1-0 with Dan Gosling putting one in the back of the net off the post in the 118th minute to eliminate the Reds. To add insult to injury Steven Gerrard was subbed off after only 15 minutes with an apparent injury.

Stevie G will be out 3 weeks and maybe up to 5 weeks. He has a torn hamstring. Next up for Derby, another visit from the Red Devils. Can't have a repeat of the last time we showed up at Pride Park.
