    Re: what are the stupidest transfer rumours you have ever heard?
    I created a rumour where RVP was to join Man City at the end of January this year with a housemate. We lived with three Arsenal fans, so wanted to see their reaction. We used that Sky Sports 'create-a-transfer' page they had, as well as another page which I can't remember.

    Two of them didn't buy it, but one of them left the house for 7 hours in a rage.

    (Original post by xDave-)
    The Thiago Silva & Zlatan bid from PSG for €65m, especially when Milan rejected €45m for Silva alone. That means Milan value Silva at, let's say, at least €50m, which means Ibra is only €15m. He's old and all, but really? And it could be even less than that.

    But apparently that's really happening now, go figure. Surprised City haven't tired to intervene.
    He's 30! He's at his peak, having just had possibly his best ever season, and will decline in a couple of years (so no resale value), but wouldn't say he's "old" yet. Though I take your general point, perhaps more so given my refutation of him being "old".

    I seen one where the guy wrote how Man Utd were going to buy a bunch of players including Eden Hazard for the reserves. He claimed he was the grandson of Ferguson's best friend

    THE GRANDSON OF FERGUSON'S BEST FRIEND AHHAHAHAHA

    There was a rumour earlier this year (the date escapes me for the moment) that Portugal would sell Ronaldo to Spain to ease the debts it was incurring due to the Euro-crisis.

    Portugal 'sells' Ronaldo to Spain in £160m deal on national debt
