According to the BBC's deadline day page Tom Huddlestone has tweeted (is that really a verb?) "Can't believe who just sneaked into the training ground the back way! Wow."

My guess is it's the Inland Revenue and old ‘arry will be 1,000,000% crapping his pants.
How many footballers are gonna mess about and put stuff like that? As if you can sneak in and out of Premier League training grounds.

As someone else has already suggested elsewhere if you were a footballer you could spend the day driving round loads of grounds just to wind up the Sky Sports News reporters.

Or hire a meeting room at a Stadium and have half your first team turn up and stay for a few hours. Would send SSN into melt-down!

Could be a great PR stunt, surprised it hasn't been exploited before smile

My guess is Mario Ballotelli (sp).

is he really a WOW! though?

I can't believe someone as sensible as harry would back a transfer for balotelli although someone has said his player profile has been removed from citehs' website

Sort of. If you click on his name here:

http://www.mcfc.co.uk/Players

You get an error message, but it could just be a cock up. Surely if they were removing him they'd do a neater job than that!

Yep, his profile works on my browser as well. I can't see him getting many real games this season but I can't see Man City selling him yet either.

Yes, what Huddlestone failed to mention was he smashed through the dressing room door in a 2 on one fist fight, one opponent was Joe Jordan, the other was a Green Sandico Bib...

Utd fan here, not expecting much, hopeful of a last minute Sneijder deal or even Luka 'I no like Chicken Badge' Modric

Will be very happy if either happen, not really expecting them to, think we will do ok without

Nothing much happening then. I think Garner is one of our better strikers.

"Exciting news from Old Trafford"

"Will Sneijder be playing in the Premier League next season... or not?"

Over half an hour later... no mention. So that'll be a non-story then, tts.
