We should do the deal Palance want, buy Zaha now, loan him back for the rest of the season. Thats a win win for us.

Yep or give them Gnabry til the end of the season

I saw John Barnes at my local gym. He is quite fat but still managed to attract almost all the women in the Gym.

I saw Dion Dublin coming out of a hotel with his wife/girlfriend and then getting into a nice black mercedes.

As I staggered out of a Dublin hotel with my girlfriend once I was nearly run over by a (probably) stolen mercedes.

Somebody thought I was Theo Walcott once, during the 2006 world cup. "Ain't you s'posed to be in Germany?". He was drunk.

I saw Lionel Messi. Barcelona were staying at the hotel next to work, I think it was for the CLfinal in 2011. Colleague got a picture with him.. I was too shy to ask

I also saw Alves but I'd rather keep that quiet.

The Messi thing you will get over. Not punching Alves in the face when you had the chance will haunt you forever.

Brilliant - he'd still be rolling on the ground....could have saved us 2 years of seeing his ugly mug.

I saw David Beckham in the summer of 2002 in central Amsterdam when United were on pre-season training there. He had body guards.

I walked past Patrick Kluivert once in a shopping mall in Amsterdam over Xmas season. He had a limp and no guards.

Broke my wrist got cantona Giggs Roy Keane and several Chelsea players to sign it

Don't have it anymore

Klaus should change the thread title to "ramdom bumping into footballers at obscure locations" as this is infinitely more entertaining than the waiting in vain for possible transfers and following the likes of Geoff!

Oh go on then...

Went to a club in central London a couple of Christmases ago and drunkenly stumbled upon Michael Essien. He was very nice about the fact that I interrupted his conversation to shake his hand. Told him he was a 'great guy' (don't know where that came from) and staggered off without another word. My housemate also met him that night later on and the funnest thing was neither of us remembered it the next morning until we saw the evidence on Facebook.

Also met Tony Adams at a charity football match. He hadn't retired yet so had a chat to him about our recent cup game against Newcastle. Was a nice guy, very genuine. Also met Chris Powell and Garth Crooks at that same match.

Have also seen Ray Stubbs, Mark Lawrenson and Lee Dixon in my local. Saw Dixon for a second time when he was off to do commentary for the Euros 08. Was oddly nervous about talking to him when I got off the plane but a couple of lads were asking him whether Nasri would sign. Those were the days...

...and finally Pele came to my office last year to sign an advertising rights agreement in the run-up to Rio 14.

Essien is a top man. Had the fittest gf a few years ago as well.

Which club did you see him in?
