I guess they have to speculate a bit more on Modric and Bale first

Danny & Darren the Bacon Boys.

POTL

 

[InOffMeLeftShin]

Um...


...Danny and Darren are clearly Levy and Eales. The only association with Bacon that springs to mind is Denmark.

 

[mattyspurs]

What on earth is he going on about??

 

[Darrkespur]

Bacon = Danish. Levy and Eales are in the Netherlands talking to Ajax - A 2 for 1 deal with Cristian Erikssen perhaps???

Or the phrase "bringing the bacon home"? Maybe the deal for Vertonghen is done. Or maybe a deal for Eriksen is on the cards. Or maybe both!

 

[dav3j]

Daniel Levy, Darren Eales, sorting deals out for.... some Danish players? Eriksen perflaps?

 

[markiespurs]

Perhaps POTL is referring to the phrase "Bringing home the Bacon"

Damn, Clamour_kid beat me to it

Yep, thats what I have just got from it from reading it back to myself.

Swap the Wenger bit for Levy and youve got it!

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Jeez its got to be a LOT simpler than some of you are making out. The Bacon Boys is no more than a reference to the saying 'bringing home the bacon' , meaning a deal has been reached for a player (My guess would be Verthongen)

 

[Sandro30]

Clearly he has left the options open with either bringing home the bacon, bringing home someone danish (Eriksen) or Belgian Boys.

Either way it is good news

 

[ryantegan]

Bacon = Pig = Live in Muck = Shit = Scouting visit to West Ham?

 

[andyp8080]

Got to be Danish...Erikssen?? That would be rather nice

Sounds gd to me! looks as if modric will be off if this happends thou!

 

[dav3j]

I would absolutely cream myself if we signed Vertonghen and Eriksen in one fell swoop this early on.

 

[Clamour_Kid]

Yep, exactly what I thought. I reckon it will be Vertonghen will be announced today.

And yet in the ITK Read Only it's under "POTL on Lurpak", and Lurpak is Danish.

that was my thought.
I was only saying to my brother yesterday that a double signing with him would be amazing

 

[Hoddle_Ledge]

What sort of price is Eriksen going for then? £15-20m?
