TALES FROM THE TABLOIDS

Last updated : 16 January 2005 By Editor

The future’s bleak, the future’s Bellion. The Sunday Mirror claim that Bellion will be shunted out of United after confronting Fergie after being substituted against Exeter. Dunno if it was written before or after yesterday’s match when Bellion came on in the last minute to waste some time. Something that young david is very good at.

The Sunday Mirror reckon that Chelsea have made ‘a speculative enquiry about Manchester United star Ryan Giggs, who has yet to resolve contract talks at Old Trafford.’

United and Real Madrid are both eyeing a £12m swoop for Bordeaux's promising youngster Rio Mavuba claim that bastion of truth, The Sunday Mirror.

Benfica have made a £4m move for Manchester United's forgotten Brazilian Kleberson according to the Sunday Express and their sister paper The Daily Star. If this were true I’d imagine Benfica would be minus one hand.

The Daily Star say we are interested in Stuttgart keeper Timo Hildebrand. The Screws say we are ‘also eyeing Cambridge's teenage keeper John Ruddy.’

Edwin van der Sar ‘will spend the weekend considering whether to snub Manchester United for the second time in his career’ according to the Sunday Mirror.

Dwight Yorke’s career continues in its own spectacular downward spiral after Birmingham said he can leave after playing just 6 matches for them. Bolton and Southampton are both said to be interested say The Sunday Mirror.
