A Summer For Sagas?

It all started with Real Madrid's interest in Manchester United's winger Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Spanish Giants have tried all the tricks and antics in a bid to get Ronaldo at the Bernabeau.

What they've got at best has been conflicting messages from Ronaldo on whether he will go or he will stay.

In his words,"The future no one knows".

Probably the biggest of them all but it hasn't been the only transfer controversy of the summer.

No,not at all,courtesy of Arsenal's Emmanuel Adebayor,who probably thought the best way to repay Arsene Wenger for keeping faith in him was criticising Wenger and Arsenal's wage structure,trying to pave a move to Barcelona.

A classic example of losing your head? 'Manu' as he is called by the Gunners' faithful has been an important player for Arsenal but he is thinking too much of himself.

In Adebayor's words,"I deserve more".

Ronaldo and Adebayor,a couple of big transfer controversies.

Gareth Barry,ever heard of him.The Aston Villa skipper has become desperate to move to Anfield and he's been talking BIG!

Barry has gone after Martin O'Neill and the club for not allowing him to complete his 'dream move'

He's been suspending for opening his mouth (you need permission from the club).

It appears it's all about millions now,15 million pounds? not good enough for Aston Villa,they want 3 million more and that's the way the cookie crumbles.

Three BIG transfer controversies already this summer,are there any other you can think of?

Have there ever been BIG transfer sagas like these in previous summers?
