Petrov won't be part of the deal. Hughes wants to keep him "The Times"

Quite right too.

Guess:

Jo and TBH (we still pay half wages) plus cash.
I can't see them going for TBH, even with us paying 1/2 his wages that would put him still on 30k, I'm guessing Lescott isn't on much more than that as it is!

True! How can we get rid of him? The new Moonchester ? Nah he'd feck that up too.

I think once injuries start coming along, we might get him out on loan, as for selling him, I don't see it ever happening.
 
Song for Moyes

Ok the tune has been used before, although I dont think it made it to the stands.

To the tune of Wheres ya Mama gone.


Last night I heard that Gollum singing a song
Ooooh weep, dont sell him on the cheap cheap

Woke up this morning and his precious was gone
Ooooh weep, dont sell him on the cheap cheap


WHERES HIS PRECIOUS GONE
wheres his precious gone

WHERES HIS PRECIOUS GONE
wheres his precious gone

FAR FAR AWAY
FAR FAR AWAY
 
For anyone who wants a quick summary Happyblue (a reliable ITK!) has said a deal is back on, whilst Stu (who works in City's medical dept) has posted this afternoon that the clubs are in talks over a valuation for the player.

Cheers for that.
 
Everton set to make £12m swoop for tottenham duo....

Everton boss David Moyes is making a £12 million double raid for Tottenham bad boy David Bentley and Scottish international team-mate Alan Hutton.

The Goodison club have opened talks with Spurs for the available pair and could get their men if they increase the offer before the window shuts at the end of the month.

Moyes's surprise double move also suggests he is now planning for spending money - with Joleon Lescott's sale to Manchester City giving him the cash to bring in more bodies in a hurry.

Everton are willing to pay around £8 million for Bentley, a player Moyes admried last summer when he left Blackburn Rovers for more than double that sum.

Despite Bentley's off-the-field troubles and his late-night car prang Moyes is interested in giving him the stage to show his talents and possibly get back into England's World Cup plans.

Bentley has had a disastrous year at White Hart Lane and is available for the right price - with Spurs supremo Daniel Levy still hopeful of recouping more than Everton have offered so far.

However as Spurs have ruled out the possibility of Bentley going anywhere on loan it could be that Everton's hard cash is the best money on the table for the troubled star.

Moyes is also keen to land Hutton, whose first-team chances at Tottenham are limited by their glut of right backs and the signing of Sheffield United's Kyle Naughton - with Kyle Walker to come.

Hutton has had an injury-hit spell at White Hart Lane since he joined from Rangers which is why Moyes rates him in the £4 million category, which is also much less than Tottenham paid Rangers for him.

Moyes would happily take the Tottenham two immediately and hopes to drive through a deal quickly, but if theprice goes up much higher it will stretch his current bidget beyond breaking point.

But the feeling at Everton is that transfer-seeking Lescott will have to go to City because he is not worth the £20 million-plus they could receive from City for him - with the only last stumbling block being how they handle the sale.

Moyes has been defiant on the issue, but common sense may prevail as time runs out - and Everton look to turn the cash into three or four new faces for a wafer-thin squad

Concur. We will end up having to pay Ben Haim a couple of million at least and let him go on a free transfer. I think he will end up at Blackburn or back at Bolton. Hes an International and will want to play he wont get any games at city even as sub. If we get Lescott he will be 6th choice if you include Kompany as cover in there.

It looks like Moyes is working out how he will spend the money anyway.
