Terminator Tal Ben Haim and Fabian Delph Rumor Roundup

Chelsea fans will be all too well aware of Tal Ben Haim after the clash with Petr Cech and we are all to aware of Tal Ben's ability to injure his fellow team-members after smashing into Micah Richards and sidelining him.

Thought to myself was it intentional?, it can not be easy playing second fiddle to someone far younger or maybe it was for the international goal Richards scored against Israel, who know?.

Recently Gareth Barry, Richard Dunne and Robinho apparently had a run in in training with Terminator, they say Barry and Dunne where not as lucky as Robinho but that got me thinking?, these players are key players at City, is this guy trying to ruin City from the inside out?.

Meanwhile Mark Hughes has claimed Manchester City are interested in Leeds United midfielder Fabian Delph (pictured) but stopped short of confirming City had tabled a bid.

Also Kolo Toure's substitution against Barnsley FC is not to be feared, it seems it was a precautionary action, possibly a sprain.

Carlos Tevez is apparently going to be fit for his debut later this week so we can look forward to seeing him in action.

According to the News of the World England defender Joleon Lescott is eager to join the City revolution, 'Lescott has informed Goodison boss David Moyes in four separate meetings of his desire to talk to City boss Mark Hughes. But after successive bids were rejected by the Merseysiders, the England international now recognises the only way to seal a deal is to go public.'

'A formal written transfer request is already being prepared and is likely to be made this week. Everton dismissed a second bid worth £19m for the 26-year-old in midweek.They are adamant they won't negotiate with City until Lescott goes public. Chairman Bill Kenwright is prepared to sit tight for as much as £30m for the defender.'

Will Lescott go public?, David Moyes certainly has done in the Sunday Mirror, says "It is about showing respect - and we are not being shown that"

"I'm sure if I was Mark Hughes with all the money he has I would try to buy the best players."But we'd try to go about it in a different fashion."I would think I would go about my business in the way I have always done."Toffees boss Moyes believes Hughes' transfer activity should be conducted in a more traditional style."

He added, "I've always tried to contact the managers and show respect to them in terms of transfers, and no matter how much money I might have to spend, I would always want to keep that up."It goes back to the managers having a drink together after the game, to the fact managers will still phone each other up when they are looking for a player."That is part of the way it should be done."

Well maybe Hughes does not want to be friends, maybe you should stop throwing your toys out of your pram and phone Hughes, take the initiative so to speak.
