Transfers (again)
The 'big' story is that Inter are holding talks with Sol Campbell - as are every other European club who'll pay �100,000 a week.
Fergie will be dissapointed, Parma have agreed to sell French defender Lilian Thuram to Real Madrid for a reputed �17m. He has been given the go-ahead by the board to spend �40m though so he won't be complaining that much.
Liverpool are renewing heir interest in young Coventry goalkeeper Chris Kirkland, the youngster recently insisted he wanted to stay at Cov and signed a new 5 year contract only a few weeks ago. The lure of Champions league football (providing Liverpool successfully negotiate the qualifying round) might well play a major part in his decision. The reds are also after the aformentioned ex-Spurs skipper
More midfielders linked with Arsenal, this time it's the turn of Bayern captain Steffan Effenberg - sounds like nonsense paper talk to me. Talk of a move for Zinedine Zidane look to be a little optimistic, the French genius has been linked with a move for the Woir;d Player of the Year but Zidane insists he'd rather go to Spain. I don't blame him, athough the weather here's not much worse at the moment.
John Gregory's job security looks a bit shaky - unsurprisingly. Showdown talks with Doug Ellis are abound.
And finally... you've got to feel for John Jensen, the ex-Arsenal player, is now managing Danish side Helfolge who were relgated yesterday. The small village team surprised everyone last year by winning the title, there's still hope of United playing Nationwide football in a years time then.....
