If only they could SEE, eh? Obviously a keegan and Mort masterplan to wait until the last day of the window before bringing 8 players in. Of course we wrapped alot of them up earlier, for example Woodgates transfer from Spurs was tricky, there was alot of guess work involved. Keegan sorted the Deco deal in the summer.

Surely we will up the bid. Would be very happy with getting him in, has looked the best player in a derby shirt everytime i have watched them. Aye that doesnt say too much, but I think there is alot too him. looks like thats 3 young attacking midfielders we are in for now. Tie them up and get Van Buyten in. Its so simple.

Adams and Pearce the front runners for No.2 now according to several rags. I would be happy getting either, especially as I can see them being interested. Cant see Adams really wanting to leave pompey for the same position though. Like wise Pearce, in a similar situation to Chris Coleman wont easily be persuaded to become a Number two to anyone. Will probably end up being someone highly dissapointing like Carver.

Yeah, bloody Mort's status is always 'out to lunch' when you ask him anything uncomfortable on messenger!

Must be in the minority here having read most of the bile written, but im actually excited by this. sure people are reacting like its ernie wise being appointed. but id say at least 95 percent of people have a clue about dennis wise or how he works as a person or coach, not many less are even interested in giving him a chance. he has obviously met everyone and we were impressed enough to think he will revel in his role, which for the record no one knows. its all part of a structure we never had

Coming as assistant/dof/coach or sparring partner for joey.

Suprised people are so against wise coming. seems like a good young coach. obviously The likes sir les, rob lee or speed would be welcomed with open arms into any role. not to mention do a much better job because they pulled on a black and white shirt.

Been my thinking all the way through, if this leads to us pipping for Van Buyten instead then I will be ecstatic. A fit Woodgate can be immense, but for the price and the state he is in, I think its silly money.

http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_3083188,00.html Uggh!... but of course he is right. Always hurts hearing it though, just looking forward to the window closing so we can get on with the rest of the season, and try and salvage some pride of what is left.

Weds if Mali win the next game.

Not fit enough to lace Carrolls boots tbh. We can do better.

Well we have to pin alot of hope on keegan giving our players a new lease of life. that and a sprinkling of luck on the injury front. when he is back starting next weekend, emre will be crucial, and i dont think keegans appointment will influence anyone more.

Its a definate possibility that we could or could not get them, that much is assured at least.

Dont think anything is happening on the van buyten front. would still love him here though. keegan rates him. i think he would be here already if he was interested.

exactly. if he failed his medical here why would he be going to spurs? i know some club doctors will differ on opinions but if he failed the medical here he shouldnt pass one there.

so he failed a medical here but has passed one at spuds. how does that work?

Hope not. odious little fellow.

Meh, really not arsed either way. We know what kind of player he can be. but he hasnt been that player for a while.

Faye should be taking butts place in midfield as soon as he is back. a pacey rw/striker and a creative midfielder will do us good for this window

Glad to have woody back if he can stay fit. he will soon find out its not the defence thats the problem but the shit sitting infront of him supposedly giving protection.

Bizarre sub. will have to see what kev is thinking

Id be putting Faye in Midfield tbh, he was looking a beast the last couple of times he played there. Dont know if Keegan will drop Butt though.

Good news if we can keep him fit, cant believe how much we are going to have to pay for him though. Is he fit to play tuesday if we got the paperwork done?

Looks like oba is coming back early! good news hopefully beye and faye will follow swiftly

Talking to spurs hoping to get the deal wrapped up asap. if the prices quoted are true im happy we missed out.
