He is a talented Man Utd reserve player with various off the pitch problems, let me put it this way he is a tearaway but hangs around with the wrong people...

Ah right, hopefully Big Sam will sort him out

I do hope so as he is a big pal of SAF but Ravel is a complicated person and poses like a gangster in his profile picture in Twitter and has had numerous court appearances before, so he'll be up against it.

Carlos Tevez to Liverpool on loan today

Not going to happen but I have faith in good old Jimmy White to bring me the news

Newcastle's legendary Rooney/Ba chant

Coleen is a slapper, she wears a wonderbra, and when she's shagging Rooney, she thinks of Demba Ba!

Has been well and truly ruined by Everton fans

Colleen is a slapper,
She is a kinky bitch,
And when she's shagging Rooney,
She thinks of Jelavic!

[Brother Leon]

Ravel is 99% off.


He's around East London at the moment.

[bbfan1991]

^ Good, he doesn't realise how ungrateful he is and wasting his talent away.

Defoe is an improvement on Carroll surely?;)

[bbfan1991]

Manchester City in talks to sign David Pizarro from AS Roma

Manchester United going to confirm the signing of young Manchester City defender Freddy Veseli.

[Samuel.]

I'd rather have Carroll. He's got years ahead of him to improve.

Neither are good enough though. Cisse would have been a better option.

[bbfan1991]

Andrey Arshavin to Anzhi Makhachkala?

[Locke.]

Nice to see Cisse and the Greek god back in England.

Great signing for QPR, he has been poor in front of goal this season but has been racking up the assists. Would actually have loved to sign him back on a short term deal

[Samuel.]

What a boring transfer deadline day.

And I've only seen us linked with Defoe :bored: Won't be happy if we sign Defoe and sell Maxi.

[bbfan1991]

Looks like Sky got their info wrong MTVN RE Nicky Maynard as the club have signed Ricardo Vaz Te from Barnsley instead and confirmed the Ravel Morrison signing on 3 and a half year deal from Manchester United...
