Just slipped further out of our reach!

Decided I would avoid watching any clips of the lad unless he signed, found myself watching some compilations five minutes later. Can't see him coming here tbh, but we shall see.

To be fair we havent had two natural passable left backs in our squad for bloody years. We have been lucky Enrique has been largely injury free or we were able to paper over the cracks in the championship. I'd say we need another LB regardless of Enrique staying, whether this guy is up to the task is more questionable, would have to trust our scouts and hope they are better than when we picked perch.

Sounds like a decent squad signing to me, decent age, needed back up for Enrique or Enriques replacement and able to cover LW if needed. Think Ferguson would get a loan out?

Loving this, congrats to timmy boy. Value just shot up 3m.

Good post, completely agree, Although its unfortunatley been like that for alot of people on here and throughout the country for years now.

Barton signs new contract tbh.

Have to make sure they pass our medical right?

Clearly not needed now we have Gervinho.

Nah Robbie Keane. Sign of the times, this time last year I would have been slightly disappointed but ready to give them a chance if we had signed those two, this year I feel physically sick at the mere mention of either playing for us. We can do much better.

He is "closer to England" because we are the only club that have bid for him. Really can't see him coming here. We will wait and see, glad we are trying for him but hope we have some decent back up options as well.

Simply ace if it happened, we will be lucky to get one of them though imo. N'Zog is the only likely lad and tbf Wigan will probably price us out of the move.

be shocked if he ends up here like.

Gameiro, N'Zogbia, Gervinho, Berbatov, Sturridge and M'Bengue.... for starters. No sod it I want Ba aswell.

It was laughable when they wanted 7m!

Highly likely Berbatov will be on his way out of Manure this summer, highly likely it won't be to us, but stranger things have happened. Would love him here like. Cant see any of the other top 5 clubs taking him. More likely he will head to Italy or Spain, certainly wont be short of offers though.

Oh dear. I think tonight's interview will hasten Barton's departure. http://www.toonpool.com/user/589/files/when_the_shit_hits_the_fan_321595.jpg

Interested to hear what Pardew says. Wouldn't believe a word that snake Mckay has to say given the noises that have come out of the club about keeping Joey I doubt we just upped and left the table without a reason. I like that we are not willing to be held for ransom by players demands, we certainly would have crumbled in the past. Will certainly be a big punch in the ribs to see Joey go especially after how well he has played this season, his vision and passing is genuinely stunning on his day. The club certainly owe him nothing though.

The french raid starts, Gameiro, Gervinho (french club), Menez and the return of the prodigal Zog.

So how come no one has asked him about Gameiro?

"Mehdi Abeid's proposed move to Newcastle has fallen through at the last minute, the players agent confirmed the clubs obsessed fans had scared the living shit out of him." http://www.LeaveThePoorGuyAloneYouCyberStalkingFreaks.com

little bit knee jerk tbh, we can certainly do better but he is streets ahead of what we have.

That was the fleshed out mostly fabricated version iirc.

As long as he doesn't have Geremi legs, the lad will be finished already.

Impressed with Ferguson, to a point Lua Lua too, Kazenga doesnt seem as confident taking players on but seems to have a decent pass and composure to pick it. I wouldn't say anyone has disappointed this season too much. We all know Smith would be an abomination, also most people were rightly pessimistic in regards to Perch. Ranger needs playing time and a loan and Campbell was past his best. Routledge comes close I didnt think he was terrible when give the chance though, certainly no worse than Raylor. Barton, Colo, Williamson, Simpson, Best, Tiote, Carroll, Enrique, Jonas and Nolan all over achieved and were big bonuses.
