They've been sporadic of late, but there is some vaguely interesting stuff going on so let's have a thread.

Benitez looks on his way out after being offered £3m to leave. Sounds daft. Surely Liverpool could offer him to Moratti and at least get a nominal fee for him? Or Rafa, no doubt already minted, could do the decent thing and fuck off for free?

The Metro's website yesterdat reported that Joe Cole had signed for Arsenal. It's seemingly not been mentioned anywhere in today's press, so hopefully it's not true. I could never bring myself to despise Joe, but I could equally never welcome him back home.

Avram Grant should be appointed West Ham manager today.

Fabio Cannavaro signs for some far east club for about £12 billion a week.
