Summer transfer window (football)

Is it just me, or will this be one of the most exciting and most active transfer windows ever in football? You've got top quality players at Valencia reportedly unsettled and looking for a move - most notably, David Villa, David Silva, Joquain, Raul Albiol, David Albelda, possibly Vicente. Valencia are apparantly in debt and need to sell their top players to make back money they've lost. Not to mention, that they're coming off of a horrible season.

I read a few weeks ago that a number of Chelsea players; Sidwell, Wright-Phillips, Malouda, Belletti, Sheva (obvious), Ben Haim, Lampard and a few other names either want out or are surplus to requirments in Abramovic's quest to play "sexy football"...As usual, the Chelsea manager (Grant or not) will have a huge transfer budget and the cash he'll get from offloading these players will bring in a lot of additional money as well.

Talk of Deco, Eto'o, Henry and obviously Ronaldinho leaving Barcelona along with a few others names i'm forgetting.

You've got Keegan who says he wants to buy 4 or 5 players over the summer, Flamini has already left the Emirates for Milan and there's talk of Hleb in talks with Inter. The Milan squad is old, thus needs a few new players...All these along with the likes of Maxi Rodriguez also available for free...

The next few months will be very interesting. I would LOVE to see Silva and Villa at Arsenal.
