I suspect he is here as a striker of sorts.

I have no idea how to react.

Wasn't it proved in the KK lawsuit that the club had been deliberately bidding low? I remember an interview he gave (think it's on YT) that he'd (KK) get the price the club wanted and the wages the player wanted then would sit back to find out the club had offered lower and then just pulled the plug. Ok they may bid but they have been proved to of done this deliberately knowing it won't get accepted in the past. The findings of the lawsuit essentially boiled down to just the one thing, that the club intentionally mislead the public over the extent to which Keegan was involved/had a say in transfers. It wouldn't surprise me one bit what you say, that while chasing their own targets they'd have fucked around with a player Keegan fancied purely as a sop to him (Schweinsteiger anyone?).

As long as we can get someone in better, Any idea which mug that would be ? Moyes or Rodgers ? Moyes, maybe. Rodgers? Fuck that. We need someone with character. If our squad stays the same, only a fucking Mourinho has the bollocks and fire to save us. Calling... http://i.imgur.com/KLHSymp.jpg

Much like Mitro, he struggled for goals the last time (bar when I watched him in the cup against Palace), but I liked a lot of what he did. Be good to see him back and hopefully kick on if our striker search continues to falter.

Aye, I'm sure the club are delighted to have him back. When's this cnuts contract up?

'Remarkable' might be a bit strong. After effectively taking a back seat post Keegangate, He's stuck to his word and neither puts in or takes out so the club just gets on with spending whatever it can generate. If they fuck up then he'll need to bail them out occasionally, though as we've seen, with loans rather than gifting the club cash. If it wasn't for the tacky Sports Direct association, horrific decisions over the stadium etc., and fucking shedload of questionable appointments, outside of getting someone pumping in money like at Man City, he could be classed as a fairly agreeable owner.

£12m!

See, now, that just makes me want them to go down even more.

Lascelles? To be frank I'd have Dummett as 4th or maybe 3rd choice centre back before him too. Haidara, Mbabu, Lascelles, Colback and Anita can fight it out for left back if Taylor isn't fit and he moves to the centre.

Unless he suddenly becomes a quick and a nasty fucker like Bellamy, while he'll no doubt be better than a Brayson or a Campbell, he strikes me as ultimately ending up struggling beyond league 1 or the Championship at a push. Just can't see him fitting in with how we play or even longer term in any Premiership team. /This post is trying desperately to be an anti-jinx, but the concerns are there.

Yup, this is not a team that should go down. We've not been playing that badly, well in fact, but we needed more threat from the midfield, and Mitrovic to start putting them away. Get Conjo in for Tiote moving Colback back if he must remain, and a striker/Perez replacement that can get goals and we'll be fine (not that I think either deserve to be sit out games as subs, especially Mitrovic after todays hold up play, but needs must). Oh and fuck the BT commentators and pundits. Such staggering and utterly pitiful focus on the Mancs. FUCK. THEM. ALL.

Fucking choke on them apples other teams in league!

How does one pronounce? Hhon-Ho?

Apparently we got burnt when we went down last time, so would be very surprised if we didn't stick in wage drops nowadays just in case.

The article pointed out he is out injured tonight. The soft shite. /Still love ya Flo.

I'm not even pissed at him retaining the captaincy. Surely the captains we continually buy have some character to them and show something on the pitch ffs. Wasn't Sissoko a captain too?

Sissoko gone shirley? Aye, I think so. Allows us to put Colback out wide. Wide, maybe. Reckon Colback will be moved into The Perez role. Don't think Thauvin will lose his place considering his price tag.

Sissoko gone shirley?

Fkn stoked. We're ganna win teh league!

New left back huh. Haidara. Fuck happened to that guy?

Millwall potentially boosting our transfer war chest by going in hard for Ferguson. http://www.newsshopper.co.uk/sport/14194330.Millwall_launch_strong_bid_for_Newcastle_midfielder/?ref=mr&lp=6

We've gotta keep playing like that... Attitude fantastic... Couldn't do any more... Nobody could complain... Ah, fair enough m8, we sound canny. Carry on then.
