Tom Ince set to sign for Inter Milan.

Good on him. He'll benefit more from playing in Italy than he would playing for Palace or other teams he was linked with, no disrespect but at his age, to be playing abroad in Italy which brings up its challenges will be more beneficial. No doubt his dad had a word in his ear about going to Inter.

Can't help but laugh at this.

Yaya Toure is reportedly interested in playing for PSG. I can't imagine he'd go there for cheap. I'm not sure what is problem is in all honesty, he won 2 EPL league titles, FA Cup, Capital One Cup. PSG isn't that much better in CL play than City are. I don't think it'd be THAT much of an upgrade for him but he seems to want more money. He's getting fucking 220K a week, is that really not enough

Maybe PSG sent him a better birthday cake than City.

Spurs: "The Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino as our new Head Coach on a five-year contract."

The dissection of Saints by the top clubs begins.

[AkydefGoldberg]

Five year deal? Wow. Pochettino wins either way. He does well he'll get paid hansomely and if/when he gets the boot, pay-off will be juicy.

A big blow for Southampton and it could now lead to the player exodus as expected with Shaw, Lallana going. I think he should have stayed at Southampton but Spurs, challenging for top four, is a big opportunity.

I'd imagine Laudrup would be an ideal choice for Southampton for me. He could carry on the style of football MP started unless they want to go back to pre-Pochettino which could result in a survival scrap if they also lose Lallana and Shaw.

An "MUTV caller" says what Hayley McQueen was thinking...

[prophet]

Man United owner Malcolm Glazer has passed away. RIP.

Man United owner Malcolm Glazer has passed away. RIP.

He's been silent and hidden in the background since the takeover happened so it's difficult to conjure up any emotive feelings besides condolences to his family. I didn't even know he was ill or 85 years of age.

Imagine like they have been for the past 9 years, the boys will continue the job.

I'm also watching it, the Bowyer/Dyer incident was great as well. It's hard to imagine that all of this was nine years ago at this stage!
