Here’s the deal: I’m starting out with Mutu, *not* because it’s the biggest news, but because this ongoing drama irks me to no end, and I’d like to get it out of the way. Anyway, I’ll direct this right at the man himself, since we all know that he lurks around The Offside:
Did Somebody Say Mutu’s Definitely a No-Go?

Well, If that’s the case, Il Capitano didn’t get the memo.
Apparently, when asked about the transfer market, he brought up the need for a striker, and in the next breath he extolled the virtues of none other than The Controversial Romanian (TCR) himself, Mr. Mutu. Don’t worry about it too much though; Il Capitano doesn’t [...]
Amantino & Other Fluff

Amantino
Amantino’s exit reminds me of the overused Hollywood script where two best friends grow up together, almost become defined by each other, but are forced to look their separate ways when it comes time to leave for college. One friend is your run of the mill person who will end up going to a run [...]

Mancinigate turned into “Hey, that wasn’t so bad”. Apparently Inter have saved all of their drama for the Lampard pursuit.
The final details aren’t known because the deal won’t become official until Mancini returns from vaca early next week, but it appears right now the fee is somewhere between 13m-15m and Mancini will [...]
Day of Nothingness

Perhaps the most boring day ever in terms of footballing news. On the European front the big news is that Frank Lampard may or may not go to Inter, while Emmanuel Adebayor or Ronaldinho could go to Milan. Or not. Awesome. And goal.com “exclusively” broke the deal of Aleksandr Hleb to Barcelona. Sign of desperate [...]

That’s some artist named Wangechi Mutu whose work keeps showing up with googles of “Mutu”. The only way to possibly describe her style is “anime meets med school meets I just lost my lunch”. So yeah, enjoy that.

Still nothing definitive. But neither are the sound bytes, which I find definitively undefinitive…if that makes sense. [...]

I think the recent quote from Enzo Maresca’s agent can sum up the last week quite aptly:
“I know nothing of the things that were written in the papers. Actually, I am curious to know the source of this news.”
All in all, complete speculation from the mass media. Why? Because everyone’s waiting for Adrian Moo Moo.
Now [...]

(If you don’t think that’s the best picture ever, you need to reevaluate your life.)
Maybe it’s me, but the last two days have been incredibly slooooooooow across the board for the calcio mercato. Or maybe we just peaked too early here with Chivugate. The best news of the last two days has been, um, that [...]

Seems as though the three names being floated around the most these days are Adrian Mutu, Julio Baptista and Klaas Jan Huntelaar. Two of those would be fine, the third would probably force me into a recreation of William Foster. Love the summer mercato.
Adrian Moo Moo
I’m not sure there’s a player in Serie A I [...]
