Now what will we do about all this then?

Well, the nonsense surrounding Ade just doesn't seem to go away. The news now is that he's really close to moving to Milan. Nothing much new in the report, but if everything is as it seems, then we should - as I have already said - take the money and run. Anything more than £25 million would be super. It seems Rocky Santa Claus could be had for something like £10 million, so he could be the replacement (as everyone seems to be saying), and we'll still have money left over.

Alternatively, if not Santa Claus, then there's also Robinho. Stupid story here linking both Chelski and Arse to Robinho. You can guarantee that once there's Chelski in the equation, transfee fees go up by 100%, and that automatically discounts us. But in principle, Robinho and Ade for the same price sounds like a good enough deal.

All this really sounds comical. Just like the deal with Barca: Yaya + £5 million = Hleb. Wonder why the players think about how they're valued like meat. You could just imagine, in the pre-historic barter league: Henry = 2 bushels of wheat + 8 combs of bananas + 20 ears of corn + 28 loaves of bread + 100 fish + Ronaldinho.

Funny. Doesn't it seem premature? But it seems next season's preliminary fixture list will be out as early as Monday. But who cares. With the new kit and fixture list, we can get dressed and sit around waiting for another month and a half.

Slow news day again, I suppose, which just leaves one smiling about Germany's loss to Croatia. Must say Croatia looked a different team from their first match. But methinks it's flash in the pan stuff. They'll fall at the quarters. But then again, these EUROs (as with all EUROs) need one darkhorse, and what better darkhorse.

As for tonight, let's keep fingers crossed to see Italy sent packing!!!
