Roberto Mancini has made his first signing as manager of Manchester City, and its a player the Premier League remembers very well – Patrick Vieira. The 33 year old has signed a 100k a week contract at Manchester City, apparently in an attempt to get back in the France Squad for the World Cup. The [...]

12 months ago it was so exciting. Here at the Offside we spent the entire day liveblogging the closing of the transfer window, excitedly. Manchester City had literally just been bought out and had one day to get…someone, anyone. Man United were courting Berbatov, and there were all kinds of rumours about Sir Alex beating [...]

By: Rob | 6 Comments
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has reportedly backed plans to curb clubs spending crazy money in the form of a spending cap during transfer windows. While obviously Chelsea have not been anywhere near as outrageous as some other clubs we could mention this summer, its not such a long time ago that Chelsea were the market [...]
Its all going so right for Manchester City afterall
By: Rob | 7 Comments
So after failing to get John Terry from Chelsea, it seems City have succeeded in signing a different top four defender in the shape of Kolo Touré from Arsenal. So despite the odd disapointment, and in Terry’s case, people using their spending power to their own ends, Man City are looking genuinely quite strong this [...]
Round-up of the current stories – JT, Hartson, and a new R10
By: Rob | 2 Comments
I’m sorry I haven’t been around, much of late. Not only has it been exceptionally busy in Real Life, I was also asked to help set up a film website with a friend, but also nothing’s really been happening. Man, I complained last season when there was the Euro’s without England, but I forgot just [...]

By: Rob | 25 Comments
So the transfer season is well and truly upon us. Santa Cruz is finally going to Manchester City, Tevez is about to leave Manchester United (Though not the city entirely, perhaps). So I thought I would open this up to all you Offsiders. Who do you want to see wearing your colours next season?
It can [...]

By: Rob | 8 Comments
So as you might have now seen, Manchester United have apparently launched a World Record bid for Franck Ribery, as the Bayern Munich striker wants out of Bavaria at the next available oppurtunity.
So is this just mindless papertalk, or does it mean that C-Ron is definitely on his way to emancipation? Well at the moment [...]
Will Michael Owen get his Mojo Back?
By: Rob | 3 Comments
Remember back ten years ago, when Michael Owen was the Saviour of English football? Even more than El Becks, as he was not yet known, Owen was the future. A freescoring young player with skill, pace, it seemed inevitable he would pass Bobby Charlton’s goals record, and be in the running for Peter Shilton’s caps [...]
EPL Ramblings – Title Race Back On & More…
By: Wayne Farry | No Comments
So the title race is back on. Obviously. After Liverpool’s win at Old Trafford it looked like they’d got their foot in the door, but after the paltry performance by United at Craven Cottage and ‘Pool’s demolition of Aston Villa it is, without a single doubt, wide open.
EPL Ramblings – Talking Rubbish And Transfer Gossip
By: Wayne Farry | 3 Comments
Another round of ramblings here at the EPL Offside. My promise to keep this as regular as a fibre lover’s bathroom goings was ultimately fruitless, but now seems like a better time than ever to post some utter drivel. I’ve finished college for the day, but am still using their computers for my leisure. Beating [...]
