From Sky:

Bielik coming in for medical tomorrow. Pretty much a done deal.

City's preferred lineup (3-2-5): Aguero Negredo Bony Dzeko Jovetic Toure Silva Clichy Kompany Zabaleta Hart

He'll gain confidence in time. Plus, Ox is playing out of his mind atm...well enough to keep Walcott on the bench. Dude this ****ing guy HAHAHA Needs to be an Arsenal Fan TV regular

Begovic kept them in the game in the first 20 mins. We could have been 4-nil up within that time period, easily.

Shawcross is Public Enemy #1

Ronaldo just won the Ballon D'Or again.

Thanks for your concern, GHH. I hate to say this but I still think Debuchy is partially at fault for putting himself in that position. That ball was clearly flying out of play. It was reckless of him to sprint after it and leap in the air to try and head it away as he did. Debuchy's got a little bit of that Jack Wilshere syndrome...seeking out contact for no particular reason.

https://pbs.twimg.com/tweet_video/B7Esu6aCIAEo0EI.mp4 ^ Tell me how the FA have decided against punishing THAT? Shawcross and Giroud were at each others throats the entire game. Same goes for Mertesacker and Crouch. Crouch elbowed Monreal in the head and made him bleed pretty badly. Typical Stoke ****e.

Pay us 100 million and we'll take them all except for: Lucas, Jones, Mingolet, Johnson, Enrique, Lovren, Lambert, Allen, Borini, Skrtel, Henderson, and Mario.

When I say starting-caliber, I don't mean starting-caliber for Championship teams, I mean Premier League.

Oh, and Coquelin has been playing out of his mind. Working hard, challenging for the ball and winning consistently, initiating attacks. Deserves a squad spot and a fresh contract. What a pleasant surprise. Now, if we can just offload Arteta and Flamini and get a real starting-caliber CDM, I'll be happy.

We're gonna need a right back now, too. Arnautovic should be suspended for his shenanigans. ****ing Stoke.

Meanwhile in Japan

BREAKING NEWS Raheem Sterling is close to agreeing a new long-term deal with Liverpool.

Lacazette would be perfect for Liverpool. He'll be a good player regardless of where he ends up. I don't see him moving this window, however.

Yeah, apparently Shaqiri chose Inter over LFC because he preferred London as well. Oh, wait.

Arsenal are keeping tabs on Borussia Dortmund midfielder Ilkay Gundogan after he was given a contract ultimatum by the Bundesliga club, writes The Daily Mirror. Arsene Wenger is reported to be on red alert after being made aware of the German international’s availability and is readying a £16m bid. Gundogan has just 18 months remaining on his contract and Dortmund want him to sign a new deal or they will be prepared to sell him this summer. However, it is suggested they are sounding out potential suitors in January over the midfielder’s availability.

Would be an epic replacement for Stevie G although he ain't Scouse

What do those ages signify? The respective ages where they earned their first caps?

Chelsea are apparently ready to fork out £200m on a buy-out clause to lure Barcelona’s Lionel Messi to Stamford Bridge on a lucrative six-year deal. (Daily Star)
