You see, "they train on a school" isn't English.

It is if they actually train on the school. Like the roof or something.

I'll bet anyone hear that if we sign Bellamy for £6m, he'll score more in the Prem than Torres!

Assuming they both sign - you're on. £10, proceeds to VT

Deal!

When Torres joins a top team he'll be catapulted into the top 5 strikers in the world. I believe you will lose that bet.

I watch a lot of La Liga and as good as Torres is I really do think he is the most over-rated striker in the world and will never be as good as people make out.

I wouldn't mind joining that wager myself backing Bellamy of course.

Maybe his Mrs hates him traveling to Pompy every day and wants him to move to a closer club. Its happened in the past.

Maybe when they moved to Portsmouth they thought it was near Oxford. Remind you of anyone?

Exactly who I had in mind when i first posted.

Quaresma is agood player, but (like most of the portuguese) he likes falling over, so I wouldn't really want him

But some are good at it. Could be worth an extra 6/9 points in a season :winkold:

Tell you what I find interesting the amount of Villa fans that spent all last season watching Pompey

My main source is MOtD and going by that Matt Taylor is world class :winkold:

(I'm sure il be corrected now with examples).

If you insist I'll see your comment and raise you a Phil Neville

:oops: surely he isn't captain! the worlds gone mad in that case.

Aside from shooting, what can he actually do? I've never been that impressed with him really, when we played them at VP this season he was largely annonymous.

thats a bit unfair because the whole Pompy time was apart from David James. What about when we played them Fratton Park. Scored a great header and penalty. When a player is made captain of any premiership team he is not an average player. (I'm sure il be corrected now with examples).

I know you cant judge players on spectator goals but to do it once is a fluke. To do it twice is excellent. To do it about 5/6 times is exceptional! Man's got talent.

Seeing as people on here were talking about DAVIS in the £5m-6m mold, I'm pretty sure Taylor would fetch a little bit more than that with that thinking.

£7m would be my bet.

Davis is a full international, taylor isn't.

I think if Taylor was from Northern Ireland he would be probably be captain! I have to admit every time I've seen Pompy play he has always been the best player for me but it could just be I've never watched the games when his been crap.

Have we been linked to this player at all because we seem to be talking as if its a done deal?

yeah plus pompey have just brought in 3 new players which could keep the pompey fans sweet should taylor leave.had pompey not signed distin,muntari and the bloke from charlton there would be no chance of us signing taylor but now i feel there is a good chance of getting him.

I would say the complete opposite. If Pompy did not bring any players in and he is an ambitious player then he would leave. But as they are already showing there intentions on competing and it probably hasn't stoped there he'd be crazy to leave. Surely loyalty stands for something.

Taylor would be a great signing but i doubt he will leave Pompy at the most exciting time in their history. That would have been like Barry living us last season.

I think the key here is that Pompey do not have Europe, and of the 2 teams we are as likely if not more likely to be challenging for it next season.

Good point but I think he would give them another season to see if he can help them get to Europe before making that move. I could be wrong.

Taylor would be a great signing but i doubt he will leave Pompy at the most exciting time in their history. That would have been like Barry living us last season.

For me Barry should never play at left back because even though he is good coming forward he does make mistakes defensively. Cover for Bouma is a must.

There is an eerie silence in this thread. Somethings not right!

Patience for gods sake. Everyone was having a fit in January and that worker out ok didn't it

I wasn't moaning about gossip. I was just amazed no1 had posted for so long. It must have been a record.

^ No post's coming up with the link mate. Would be good if we could this Adidas geeza to chat on this site.

^ I like these kind of posts. This is what the thread is for. Not to discuss whether Luke Moore is leaving or not. We have a players out thread for that.

Would anyone fancy forlan?

maybe if i was gay.

He can bang in the goals but I doubt he'd want to return to the Premiership. Wouldn't be a bad signing though IMO.

Wikipedia entry for Carlos Martins

cheers mate, i suppose what I should have said is what are all your thoughts on this?

Anyone know anything about this Martins we have been linked with?

Koumas, Cook and Naismith are the type of players we want aswell as the big time charlies, good decent British talent that can be really good squad players.

Just because they aint renowned doesnt mean their shite does it, Henry who would have thought he woud of turned out like he has, you hve to give British players a chance even for our National teams sake aswell as our own!

I'm pretty sure I've heard the sentiment on here before that we should follow a policy similar to Spurs of trying to sign young british talent. Is that not what these players could be described as?

We have a lot more money now, and I'm not saying we should waste it. However, surely sometimes we have to take a risk with such people e.g. naismith and see if they develop? Or am I totally deluded?

Your 100% correct. We must buy young potential and think about the future as well as the present.

I think we should sign Oddo because he has a great name that is the same said backwards.

Why are we talking about signing Maldini, is there nobody linked to us at all???

I think we need a defensive midfielder of the nutter type mould, e.g Gattuso type player. When's the last time we've had one of these and any idea's of who's out there?
