    We're being linked with Alan Judge of Brentford this afternoon. Out of contract next summer there and would probably fancy it.

    And DeAndre Yedlin has arrived for a medical ahead of a permanent move from Spurs. That might see Janmaat move back to the PL.

    "Liverpool fullback Javier Manquillo has been linked with a move to the stadium of light"

    Wait, what?

    Right, SSN missed out the former bit. Was having a small Luis Alberto sized heart attack for a moment there.

    Do we still have Alberto? I've lost track of the crap we've bought over the years we still can't get rid of. I think Balotelli is still mincing about the training ground somewhere as well.

    I had to do a double take when I seen Jonny Evans and £25m mentioned in the same Telegraph article. That has to be new peak transfer madness.

    I used to think that Alberto Moreno was completely irredeemable as a person, but I've just seen this:

    Wenger just gonna say fuck it and buy James - another midfielder.

    Bony will join no doubt- Wenger has just been sniffing around other clubs cast off because he got lucky with Ozil and Sanchez. Doesn't always work and now it's backfiring on him and his 600 employees.

    Lockyer factors in an overdraft facility of £50m ("The board have not drawn on this yet, but we assume they will if they embark on heavy player spending") to estimate that the cash available for players is just £54.1m.

    I'm struggling to see who Joe Hart's actually going to sign for... De Gea, Cech, Lloris and Courtois are better than him, Man City don't want him and neither do Everton.

    Liverpool's a possibility, but if Klopp wants a ball-playing keeper and Guardiola's already wrote him off in that sense, then I'm not sure that would be a go-er.

    Forster and Butland are at least in his league, so that's two more down.

    I can't see him wanting to play abroad either, if he has any choice about it.

    In short, he's going to go back to Shrewsbury on loan for a year.

    He's a bit shit but I'd still have him as emergency cover instead of Ming until we find out whether this other chap Liverpool have signed is also a total liability. Fuck off at the thought of really paying anything though. Cover wages and a loan fee? Arf.

    T-bone probably isn't that much better than him.

    Why the hell is he turning down Sevilla and Dortmund though? That sort of attitude is a one way ticket to Sunderland, and thus career doom.

    Anyone other than the Sun reported that he has?

    If true, I would say fair play for fighting for his place, but it's not like Bravo will lose the spot.

    Maybe he doesn't want to move abroad, which would be fair enough.

    This Lucas Perez guy seems an awful lot like a one-season wonder to me. If you're 27 and never amounted to much until this one season, thats usually the case.

    Yes, I'm looking at you too, Vardy.

    we definitely need to look for another goalkeeper

    Playing time and he will probably end up at Juventus or Barca(mate) in a year or two if he turns out good anyway.

    I remember saying the same about Connor Wickham years ago (that the big teams were better off paying x times as much down the line if he became decent), but it would be interesting to know whether it actually works like that.

    If you look at the biggest teams in each league, they rarely seem to buy someone who isn't ready to come in and do it straight away. It's the teams in the tier just below that, who seem to buy them first and develop them to sell them on for the inflated price later.

    Saw Pirlo's pen vs England again today. Still class. And Joe Hart still looks like a twat.

    Reminds me of the first time I saw a "panenka", which was Totti v Holland. I didn't even understand what had happened.

    Presumably that run up is trying to put the keeper off the timing of his move/dive. Executed like a total goon though.

    "I have always taken my penalties like that and was convinced I'd score," Zaza told Sport Mediaset at Milan's Malpensa Airport as the Italian players arrived back in the country.

    "I did send Manuel Neuer the wrong way, but unfortunately the ball went too high. It will be difficult, but I want to get over it. I want the Italians to know that we gave everything.

    "I missed the most important penalty of my career and it'll be with me for the rest of my life."

    I've seen one other penalty from him:

    http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3vgm4v

    Doesn't do that much dancing about.

    In fairness to Zaza, he did send the keeper the wrong way. It looks ridiculous because of the run-up but in terms of the penalty itself it's no worse than what Messi did in the Copa America.

    All of these from Sky:
    Watford have agreed a deal with Anderlecht for Stefano Okaka - he is expected for a medical today.

    West Brom have paid a club-record fee of £13m for Nacer Chadli of Spurs.

    Derby have had two seperate bids for Chris Martin - one from Wolves and one from Fulham.

    Newcastle are in talks with Chelsea for Christian Atsu on loan, but are interested in Callum McManaman of West Brom.

    And Middlesbrough and Arsenal have agreed a season-long loan deal for Callum Chambers.
