Hardly the thread to be discussing last seasons matters but in my opinion, I was never once afraid of Arsenal winning the league. But of course if you wish to continue then please pm me.
He was a very good prospect, but his development stalled a bit, still a good player, but not what everyone thought he would be at this stage, but he still has time. He was meant to be close to joining Spartak Moscow, but I haven't heard much about that since a week ago and now they are close to signing Demy De Zeeuw, so maybe the Defour deal is off, although they are different players they do occupy the same position.
BBC Sport - Peterborough sign Man Utd's Tunnicliffe and Wootton on loan
Good move for both players, hopefully they do well in the Championship.

Will be interesting to see how young Ryan copes in the Championship, heard a lot of good things about him. Hopefully he will improve with some first team experience in what is a good footballing side in a very competitive divison. Certainly one to keep an eye out for though for Man United fans.
Replace the word trophies with 'The League' and I'll agree, it was just last season we were in a Cup final though, therefore competing* for a trophy.
Short memory?
*Correction of typo.
Sorry, but I disagree with that one. Cole>Baines for me (and I'm not being biased being an Everton fan). Clichy is quite good getting forward as his gift is pace, but that is ALL he has. Baines on the other hand is tactically good both in offence with his crosses and has a better defensive gameset than Clichy. And Evra is also better imo. Though he did have a few "hiccups" in certain games

Whoah have to disagree with the argument that Clichy is only good going forward, he barely put a foot wrong defensively all season from what I saw his positioning/marking was very good. Plus he's more likely to win you trophies than Kolarov imo and at City he wont have mickey mouse CB's and keepers who have jelly for fingers so hopefully he can shine through. His only problems for me are his concentration level sometimes drops at key moments and he has been slightly injury prone throughout his career but for 7 million that's definitely a risk worth taking.
Liverpool interested in Juan Manuel Mata and Gael Clichy, although the latter is on the verge of joining Manchester City and the Anfield outfit have admitted defeat. I rate Mata and Clichy would be a good LB for us, better than our current ones but I'm afraid he is not coming to Anfield.
Because they're obsessed with us.
Arsenal are considering a shock move for Manchester United's John O'Shea.
The Gunners are shopping around for defensive cover as they are on the verge of selling Gael Clichy to Manchester City for £7million.
Bolton's Gary Cahill remains top of Arsenal's wish list, but it is not yet clear if Arsene Wenger will shell out £17m.
Versatile O'Shea, 30, was told this summer that he can leave United after 12 years.
The Republic of Ireland international is not interested in joining Sunderland, who expressed interest a fortnight ago and also want United's Darron Gibson.
But O'Shea has been made aware of Arsenal's interest and sources close to the player say he will consider a move to London.
O'Shea was initially going to be a makeweight in a Manchester United push to lure Arsenal ace Samir Nasri to Old Trafford.
But Manchester City last night joined the hunt for the Frenchman, although Arsenal do not want to lose him to a top-four rival.
But with Wenger cutting his loses on Clichy who only had a year left on his contract, the path is still clear for an approach for O'Shea.
:O

You give us Samir Nasri and we'll give you John O'Shea in a straight swap, no money involved. Sound's like a fair deal to me
tbh both of them wont be joining Pool this year according to me... Mata wants to further his career and play for a team in the CL and Pool most probably wont be in the top 4 next season.. well on paper atleast, problem is that as soon as either one of Man Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea or Man City join the hunt for Mata which can happen then Pool will have little to no chance of signing him
You forgot the fact that appearantly every football player is a fan of Liverpool. Especially when they were children, boy did they love Liverpool.
but according to my sources, mata is a liverpool fan...

scott dann and gary cahill on chelsea radar because david luiz is linked with barcelona and real madrid.

Jamie Carragher is an Everton Fan, Rooney is a Everton Fan, Messi's boyhood club was Newell's Old Boys ... do all of them stay at the club they support or do they move to further their careers because apparently everyone who Pool have been linked with is a Pool fan when he was young
Btw Luiz is linked with RM and Barca but I doubt we will let him go, if we do we will not let him go for anything under 30m and Barca are looking at other targets and RM already have a well-established CB partnership and are also probably looking at other targets such as Neymar
