That's a shame, I truly thought he'd go Stateside! Then again, the football dream is to play in Europe, so I suppose it could be related to that...though...Rennes? Yikes. I'd at least have given him credit for PSG or Lyon, but Rennes is a bit...
In other news, the excitement that Barton is not going to Bolton after all has made me somewhat happy. I'm now seeing reports (though I can't confirm on any of the MAJOR sources) that Phil Gartside is prepared to break the Bolton Transfer Record (Anelka - 8Mil) to sign a new striker. Could we be seeing Johan Elmander, after all? Or is there a new player on the Bolton radar? Hmm...
