Kanj

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. Sorry yes, handed in a request at Montpellier and was near the French national squad, many rated him higher than Sakho. He comes here hoping for a big platform, better wages, etc. whatever the reason. He said all the right things but the idiot manager makes him sit the bench when he outplays the captain and then is sent back to the bench or played out of position as a full back. Stupid man, its fucking stupid.

I'm gutted as its another player I really liked and enjoyed watching play for us sold. I'm not going to like the transfer fee, and they've upgraded on Sagna who was DISPLACED by Debuchy as the French starting RB. His marauding runs forward, the insane volleying technique he had, and some of those crunching/late tackles are things I will miss about him. At times he looked classes above the rest of the players on the pitch. With Cabaye gone, Remy not signed on, I assume Sissoko will be gone too. Our entire French representation, "revolution" if you will are being dismantled as quickly as we set them up. Shame, fucking shame, Alan Pardew gifted a squad of immense individual talent and he hasn't the ability to manage them properly, the backbone or knowledge to get a player or 2 to complement their talents (ie: big commander CB, or striker or winger to suit his needs) going after the fucking Colbacks of the world and relying on Colo and Saylor. Fucking imbecile. I always want our players who leave to go to a different country, but I'll watch on with envy and hopefully he helps make Pardew look stupid.

Mapou handed in a request, and is left rotting in the reserves. -__-

Gif of the day, it's amazing.

God, imagine being great at the World Cup and the reward is Pardew. I loved watched Joel too, funny enough, we all did (the people I watched / texted with during the Cup) he gained a cult following from us

You know Colback and Saylor are going to be best of mates too.

Their current manager is such a gob shite too. Not that our club is any better; Rene Girard would never have said such stupid things, dude's a class act and is doing mighty fine at Lille.

At least Joel Campbell will be used to the shit Puma kit template.

fucking idiotic man, why are the reserves training separately? I saw some youngsters training with the 1st team too.

Will have some random white stripe detail on the body.

Its that speed template from page before though, man.

Which makes it more mind-boggling to me that they've gone and stuck with their slick $23.00 per shirt template.

Aye, totally forgot that. Thought West Brom had some controversy about a no-stripes home shirt? Was there a leak? Aye it's about, it's white with blue pinstripes. Looks alright actually but it's hardly a shock they're annoyed. Clubs are f***ing ridiculous man, I can't imagine a situation where the people making the decision on the kits go "No real stripes, just pin stripes, the supporters will love this obvious change from usual tradition"

if Lovren is worth 20M so is Sissoko, not having that shit.

Wow, Nike CAN'T lose Man Utd. Be a huge loss for them esp IMO having Man Utd, Barca, PSG.

Is it up for grabs? And I don't think Nike will ever lose Man Utd man - the shirt sales globally are out of this world

Think I'm going to buy the new Roma home shirt, it's perfection.

Ohhh Nike.

Dunno, he's not really that good. If you think he's worth £25m you've had one too many proseccos. With proper coaching he's worth that. He has all the tools to be a powerful player in any team. He's like 22-23 right? Just think 10m is BS.

The price being talked about for Moussa is insane. 10? His age, potential etc -- the price tag should be double or 2.5x IMO.

Rangers have the Italy template. Isn't it smarter to release new kit so new kit starts getting sold all summer long? It's not like they don't mark the kit down like crazy.

The way everyone has been blowing Beligum pre-cup, they should have beaten every team by 2-3 goals and destroyed the USA team on paper with a squad that was reportedly some 400M+ in value or some s*** I read. Belgium did themselves very well and had to get through Argentina, no small task for ANY country in the world. But Wilmots' team has a f*** load more talent on paper than the Dutch, who have gone on and proved themselves by winning big, winning tight, and well - again, in the semis of the World Cup. Had Belgium beat Messi and co, Wilmots would get super praise. He still deserves massive credit, and was unfortunate to have Benteke out and Lukaku not at full pelt - but the same could be said about Colombia who had their best player and striker missing for the cup. LVG has played it brilliantly well, bury hatred for Manchester United for one second and just look at that team and the formations/subs he's made. Results.

LVG has done a magnificent job man, sheer fact is they are playing in the semis of the World Cup and it's not off crap opposition or magic HBA/Cabaye style moments he's set this team up brilliantly well and then utilized the best of robben and RvP finishing.

Sign Auier. Dudes a tank.

He makes great runs forward - late into the box, early into the box, etc. In final 3rd I see him either taking the ball and playing it out wide and then trying to get on end of a chance or making runs to finish balls into the box intelligently. I am looking forward to him and ACTUALLY do like that he's a former captain too. Kind of hope he gets the arm band, he'sa proven winner.
