Lauren is out of contract for you guys, so you mgiht want to do something about that. Why do you need a forward? Assuming Reyes stays you still have 4 top forwards.

Bergkamp won't last a whole season and even this season he's been inconsistent, so take out Henry for any period of time and we'd have Reyes, van Persie and Aliadiere.

Henry's the only forward we have who can lead a line, and there's too much inexperience for the rest of them. So another relatively experienced forward would be good.

Lauren signed a new contract recently I thought? Ah well we have Eboue and Toure who can both play there anyway.

To be a member of the G14 you need an unanimouz approval of all the memberz, I can't see that happenin. So Chelsea can't join the rich club just yet.

Legislation. It's not in fact legal for him to even have controlling interest in 2 clubs. He does own shares at CSKA Moscow, and an investigation was launched last year I think on whether he owned both.

Another thing.. as you can see it wouldn't be the G-15 if Chelsea joined, because there are already 18 clubs now :p. However when Chelsea applied for G-14 status last year all 3 English clubs voted against their application. Fair enough, 2 league trophies and 1 Cup Winner's Cup doesn't make you part of Europe's elite. If anything Forest has better credentials, but they're too poor I guess.

No way Henry's going anywhere. He's one of those few rare players left in the world. Still, if SBS had coverage of La Liga I'd love to see him playing for Barca just to see them play.

Henry............. Ronaldinho..............Deco

...........Van Bommel......... Marquez...............

I'd just love to see the look on Thierry's face when Rijkaard tells him he'll be playing on the right. You don't buy the most prolific footballer in the world just to play him out of position.

He's not going anywhere, anyway.

I think the idea would be that Henry would play as a withdrawn striker as he has been, while Ronaldinho and Deco will continue to have free roles.

Roman dont own any shares on CSKA Moscow, i don't think so, cos thats as said, is illegal, however, teh investigation was into why Roman's oil company is a sponsor of the Moscow club...
