  1. Why would it be daft to offer him a new contract if his current deal expires at the end of the season?  It would be pretty daft to wait until the end of year, especially if we stay up or have an unexpectedly good season. 

     

    He's not going anywhere unless we push him.

     

    Well he's not exactly getting head hunted by Barca at the moment, but if he wins the Championship and keeps us up this season, he ends up in a really strong bargaining position in the summer.  And it wouldn't be inconceivable that other teams might be interested, especially if he's out of contract.

  2. This is just getting too confusing now, seems as though we're actually going/getting players that we need rather than just extra players for spots we're already "strong" in. I'll need to wake up soon.

     

    I wouldn't say we are "strong" in midfield at all.  This distinction between 'attacking' and 'defensive' midfielders just doesn't seem relevant when your other options include a striker who thinks he's a midfielder, a fatty, and a psychopath who can't stay fit. 

  3. So to recap:  Marseille are refusing to accept he has left, Hughton is refusing to accept we are interested in him, and Ben Arfa has turned up in Newcastle, apparently refusing to accept he isn't already playing for Newcastle?
