He's only 23

This right here, this is it in a nutshell (unfortunately) Looks good enough to be on a banner for the first home game!
-
Should all talk of Hatem and Maveaux be restricted to this thread? Decree of the king?
-
Surprised he opted for Australia.. convinced he would end up in the MLS, with his brother just having moved to Canada thought that might have paved the way.
-
A CB or 2 is more important than another midfielder. Agree, especially if one of the two strikers we bring in actually can cover the wing too (not that it matters to Pardew). Think we are adequately covered through the middle, if only in numbers rather than true quality. Just don't see a CB signing happening with the foreshadowing of Satka and Streete. Although very little been said about the latter recently. All depends whether we sell mapou. Maybe we do fancy Richards but in the middle, not sure I like that.
-
Surely most improved player last season for us. One of the only bright spots last year and one of the only faces I will be happy to see again this season. However, Can't see pardew putting him anywhere but on the bench though this year
-
A signing I am genuinely delighted about. Still two top strikers, another midfielder and right back away from doing what's needed this window.
-
Gosling was turd. He was a watered down Kevin Nolan with zero end product. He certainly got himself into right areas but influencing games? I don't think so. Maybe it just would have taken him one goal to go in and we would have seen a different player. Would have preferred to have kept Guthrie.

Can you not be aware of this strategy and also upset about the sales that result from it? For sure but it's a bit like agreeing to be in an "open relationship" and throwing the toys out of the pram when your partner runs off with another person....................... I imagine
-
If Remy signs I will eat my hat.. Absolute posturing from his agent to get Arsenal or whomever else is in the picture to pay more money for his wages. Nee chance he is coming back. Be surprised to see Ba back too.
-
Think that any people still upset by this type of sale need to realise that part of our stategy in attracting players here is telling them this can be your "stepping stone club". This isn't new.. Right or wrong is how we have attracted players here. Hopefully they perform well and push the team higher or reclaim big fees when they move. Not that we couldn't attract similar or the same player with a different manager and selling angle but this is and has been for years our chosen selling angle. Always going to be someone leaving, probably even if we scale champions league fringes. This was the chosen outcome when Debuchy signed up.

More chance of him staying at QPR than coming back to this shithole vacuum.

Official: Daryl Janmaat joins Watford for £7m

Oh I am thinking Isla over Payet/HBA. "A defender that plays also in midfield? You mean I can play two defenders on the right side?" -
Fucking love the guy, even though he doesn't track back.

Very like Debuchy in attack, likes to get forward, hit/miss crossing, good in the air and likes to put a tackle in. Not sure how great he is defensively but didn't embarrass himself. Would prefer Isla.. or why not both considering we could put Isla on the wing. I know, madness. -
If Hatem and Marv are truly not going to be given a chance then getting two players like payet and cabella is truly as much as a priority as getting two strikers. Would be happy with zaha and a decent target man upfront too. We will likely end up with a winger and a striker and the rest "saved for January".
-
Would like him here too.. Will end up at Southampton.
-
We could have one last go at persuading Debuchy to stay too.. Or one last go at persuading Aubermayeng at the second attempt he should come here instead of Roma. It's like telling your ex you have changed and worked out how to use the tumble dryer. It's beyond too late. Choose the shambles before you or an ambitious club with champions league football. The odds are like a million to one. http://collegetimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/58669-so-youre-telling-me-theres-a-c-Sm9B.gif

huh? He handed request in at Montpellier and Pards will let him rot in reserve so he can play Taylor and Williamson, I think he means. Aye yeah, missed that. Good god, what a decent manager could get from Mapou, Hatem, Gabriel and Sylvain.
-
Good god, didnt know Ronaldinho was even still playing.. what an odd move. Wasn't he very closely linked to Stoke in his prime?
-
Tbh he was good but still dodgy as fuck and a liability at times. Honestly not crying into my milk over this one, although obviously a shame to lose him. Played less than half of the games he played well imo.
-
huh?
-
Wut !!! Must be knackered when he gets there. Quite impressive really. Nearly a marathon 4 to 5 days a week, just showing off tbh After the 8th attempt at passing that driving theory test he just gave up.
-
"All in" Except for those that are out.... Santon, Marveaux, Hatem, Jonas, Elliott, Gouffran, Cisse.. what ever happend to Mbabu? See Streete and Satka are there.
