Not really seen much in him so far but he's young and hasn't had the full Rafa effect yet. It took Atsu time to start looking good (even though he was awful today ironically).

We're a very good team defensively. Gash at the other end bar a few minutes here and there. First time in a long time that I'm confident we won't leak goals. Swansea are fucking awful.

Has got that fancy forrin thing mixed with putting a boot in. Jack Colback is well and truly dead.

What a horrific visual

Shame the answer to buying cheap shit that's rubbish wasn't invest in quality players.

How many points up on us are they on us now marra?

They're classy too, marra! 'MLF' always makes me laugh! Nothing funny about being a massive fan of lads.

Getting the knife surgically removed from his back.

Yeah N-O and ToonTastic don't see eye to eye on much but NE5 is definitely one.

Meanwhile at Newcastle:

No way a window in which we failed to sign a goalscorer or first choice goalkeeper would be considered good no matter how much the other signings had cost.

Exactly. We were scraping the barrel for free/low fee transfers with Fat Sham before he took over and he spent some money and generally bought someone for every position we needed. Then he sacked Fat Sham and brought back Keegan. How anyone could 'see through him' at that stage is beyond me considering he had brought instant improvement in his first year in charge.

What's strange about it? Very common short form for his name. It's very weird in English culture. We might initial his name IE 'J-L' but that's about it.

If only we could have seen it coming based on 10 years of experience.

Simultaneously got no money but raking in that profit in the books. Walking in an Ashley wonderland. Surprised he hasn't tried to become dictator of a country yet.

Well that's it. As soon as the new manager comes in this cockroach will crawl back into the starting line up. Probably ahead of Merino

Mike Ashley's favourite time of the year. The window has just slammed shut and he can start preparing for his balancing the books top dogs trophy.

That's 'West Ham' in sign language.

Rock bottom meet Mike Ashley

The new deadline day disappointment will be Colback staying. Half expect some kind of Rocky-esque scene with Colback running up the steps outside SJP on SSN after the window SLAMS shut. Will probably drag the reporter down by his shirt on the way too.

Gah

I've seen this claim before, and it's simply not true. Nobody likes the thicko more because of his daft antics. He's a character, and a potentially really good player. That's why me and others still like him. He's got more to come, but he definitely needs to get rid of the dirty play. He's a character because of his daft antics though.

People being unnecessarily bitchy about him. He did his job, best of luck to him.

One whole extra player. I feel so spoiled.
