TRANSFER GOSSIP
Tottenham are looking to sign former Arsenal defender William Gallas. The 33-year-old France international is a free agent after being released by the Gunners at the end of last season.

The 23-year-old Benfica centre-back, who played for his country against England at the World Cup, will join for £1.8m.

The Bloomfield Road outfit has a rigid wage structure and moves for striker Rob Hulse, Jon Stead and Marlon Harewood have been rejected. Sheffield Wednesday face a winding-up order on Wednesday over a £550m tax bill which HM Revenue & Customs claim has not been paid. AND FINALLY
Fulham striker Bobby Zamora, who could make his England debut against Hungary on Wednesday, considered playing for Trinidad & Tobago because at one point it was his "only option" of getting international football.

Cant see how Arsenal would rather have Schwarzer instead of Given, who's 3 year the younger, a long history of great performances, a fan favourite, doesnt come from a London rival etc.
