Lennon to Liverpool and Modric Twitter Rumours Debunked

boredSo the excitement continues. No, wait. What’s the opposite of excitement? That’s it. Boredom. The boring boredom continues. Monday saw a trending frenzy (get me, trending) on Twitter regarding an apparent thirty-five million smacker bid from United for Modric. Which, understandably got many fans of both clubs into somewhat of a social media flap. Sadly for those of Mancunian persuasion- and, likely, the thirteen year old boy who invented the story- no-one seems to have bitten. Instead, the way I wish most rumours would go, it simply melted away into the airwaves, like a digital snowflake, never to be spoke of again. Or something.

Still, no official word from Modric yet, so we’re not entirely out of the woods. Talking of which, I’ve taken it upon myself to pen a speech for our miniature Croatian- one that he perhaps might like to use in his next press conference. I shan’t give too much away but it includes such phrases as ‘I’ve made a terrible mistake’ and ‘Chelsea? Who are Chelsea?’ and, my own favourite ‘How soon can I get this cockerel tattooed onto my bottom cheek?’

That should just about straighten things out.

Elsewhere, Aaron Lennon’s name and Liverpool have been mentioned in rather more sentences than I’d like this week. And not just from the crazed man on the street, either. From real, proper establishments like the BBC. There seems to be a common feeling that this is very much a go-er. A twenty million pound go-er, at that. Until, of course, you realise Lennon is betwixt contract negotiations as we speak and his agent might just well be sensing an opportunity to bludgeon a tuppence or two. The crafty old sausage.

Righto, that’s me. Feel free to post some rumours in the space below, if the mood strikes. It doesn’t even have to be about football. In fact, I’d prefer if it wasn’t. This transfer window has already made me quite weary.

Tally Ho!
