    We are one of four Premier League clubs who are apparently interested in Brazilian winger Bernard, who is available on a free having left Shakhtar Donetsk.

    Translated:

    "Chelsea, Everton, West Ham, Watford... Several are the options for Bernard in the Premier League. Kia Joorbachian has morals in all of them. Before, however, the Iranian agent wants to solve other businesses to, then yes, choose the best destination for the Brazilian. Window Closes Day 9"


    We've already signed a Ken, makes sense that we sign a Bernard too I suppose.

    There was a Bernard where I grew up.

    He delivered eggs

    Kia Joorbachian and Scott Duxbury have an established business relationship too...

    A bit more info:

    - Scored 10 in 29 games (all comps.) with 3 assists last season, playing pretty much exclusively as a left winger
    - Stands at the mighty height of 5' 5"
    - Netted against Man City in the Champions League last season in a 2-1 win
    - Chelsea are hot favourites to sign him, thus leaving us no chance and I've got no idea why I'm bothering really

    We will need to sign a Matthews to play alongside him up front.

    I like the fact the agent picks his new club and player seemingly has no input.

    He's a football agent so I doubt they are required.

    That would be some payment to the agent to get this sorted.

    A Bernard fits well with the Pozzo model which has already attracted a Kenneth this summer.

    Brazilians always used to be called cool sounding names like 'Jairzinho', 'Zico' or 'Socrates'. Now they called 'Fred', or 'Malcolm' or 'Bernard'.

    Was there a phase 20 odd years ago when 'UK Gold' was the only cable channel in Brazil?

    All these old names become trendy. The next one will be Nigel (no babies named Nigel in the UK in 2017...none), the next Brian, the next Clive :)-)).....etc

    Nigel will only return in some poncified form, pronounced Neejell or something. I'm already making plans for it.

    I liked the historical period, with Julio Cesar and Bismarck. Pity that Hitler and Stalin never got called up.

    But why is the new Liverpool keeper always referred to by his girls' first name when he has "A Becker" on the back of his shirt?

    Ha, I have always wondered with a number of these latin types, most have a female name in amongst their actual 17 birth names somewhere, assume it's a bit of an opposite skandi thing with the fathers name, yet to be cool always known as only one name.

    I wonder with the Brazilians resorting to call centre names, Fred, Malcom, Bernard etc.... if they like the UK are reverting back to more traditional names like Harry and George rather than fancy dan Colin, Kevin, and Gary over times gone by, just doesn't sit right though if you have a Brazilian player he needs a cool name.
