like Rossi and think he would be an upgrade be a perfect replacement for keane.

Hmm, not a fan of this Goat update. Saying something definitely WILL happen. Dangerous business. The hoofed one has clearly become more blase since I was last here.
Diarra and Rossi updates gladly received, though. Well done, G.

The thing about Rossi is that he's different to what we already have - he's a deep lying link up man who can also play wide in a 4-5-1. We have no one like that (other than maybe Gio and potentially Krancjar). He would have been invaluable yesterday when we had a massive hole in that part of the pitch.
I actually think he'd be a much cleverer purchase than Suarez for that second striker role because he has better awareness and creativity (though scores less).

Are we interested in Rossi because he looked good against us in a friendly, or because of his so-so La Liga record? I've seen very, very little of him, but on paper he looks pretty ordinary.
all this nonsense about fabiano, huntelar and now rossi! its highly unlikely fabiano is coming and I for one am pleased, overated and would be a poor investment at the age of 29, huntelar is clearly not good enough and rossi didnt exactly set the world on fire with man utd! yesterdays inept performance shows that we are crying out for another attacking midfielder cos without modric we are too predictable. :evil:

He doesn't play as a main striker though - his game is about creativity and spark in the gap between midfield and the front man. It's a bit like criticising say Gudjohnsen on his scoring record.
Alongside him though Fabiano would score hatfuls.
Depends - if he fires us to the CL for the next 4 seasons it will be an exceptional return.

People will shoot me down but I believe we still have a chance at Dzeko. He is exactly the type of striker that we need, that for me is without question.
There has been massive interest from the big boys but now time is running out. If these 2/3 teams decide against purchasing him, surely its worth a go.
We are in the CL and we now need to find our Drogba or Torres. Both these were gambles for their respective clubs when they parted with £25 + million for them.
They were gambles. Dzeko would be no more of a gamble than buying Fabiano for £13 million.

Can we stick to ITK, not personal wish lists?

Noone will shoot you down for believing any of that. They'll shoot you down because there is zero evidence to suggest spurs are interested. We would have heard something if spurs made an enquiry so he must be seen as a player who's out of our reach. Its a pity tho.

Didn't someone on here bump into Harry and ask about Dzeko? From memory I think Harrys reply was something along the lines of "not for £50M".
I can see this transfer window being a complete wash out with us signing absolutey nobody (excluding Sandro). All the ITK's, as normal claiming this & that, but what has materialised ???? With only 2 days remaining in the window, I feel we will be no stronger than at the end of last season thus allowing Man Shitty to grab the remaining Champions league place this season.

I see you're not new here even if you only got 5 posts so you should know by now ITK don't claim anything but just pass on info thats passed to them. Sometimes by the time we get it its 6th hand info
it's going to be a very busy last-2-days-to-do-our-deals
POTL told us "negociating 2 deals at the moment, more over the week-end": negociating simply means not done yet, it doesn't mean it won't happen. the more we near the deadline day, the more sevilla will want the money for fabiano (otherwise free in 6 months) so we're probably hoping the price will decrease; diarra/RM are asking for a lot of money but that might also decrease as we approach Sep 1st. Fingers crossed.
