Plenty of minutes for all four. One of Deschamps complaints about Ben Arfa IIRC was that he was rarely good for 90 minutes. I wouldn't want to sit Routledge, but I think that he would be particularly effective as an impact substitution.

Good man. Now give Jonas a break.

Was anyone really that impressed with Gyan? Really?

I rate him, I just don't like him. Acutally, I rather enjoy hating him.

£10m for Gyan? I think they're going to be massively disappointed.

If we beat Wolves, I'll kick it out of Cynical and go straight into Deluded mode.

Fuck off.

We all know it's unlikely to be repeated, but it was definitely good for morale. Reminded the team, and the club, what it's capable of. Just a thought. How might the 6-0 scoreline change the approah taken by other clubs when they play us?

RE: Stepping up I think that's what the players reputedly did in the aftermath of the Leyton Orient fiasco. We've been on the up from that point forward.

Something in the Guardian about us signing pursuing Utaka. In the Rumours. Mentioned?

Just when I've completely given up on Shola, he turns in a performance so woeful that I give up on him all over again.

Bored. Think I'll watch the Villa game again.

Fletcher is out?

Any thoughts on how Wolves will line up?

"Mate's" or "mates'" report?

Simpson?

About fucking time...

It depends on how much we'll receive for him, obviously. I don't think we're going to get enough for him. Not in this market.

Can we buy a comparable replacement for the money we receive for Taylor?

Wouldn't be overly disappointed if we did go out TBH. Wish this was over so we could start talking about Wolves. Who's responsible for starting the pre-match thread?

The poll results assume that Taylor is demanding 60K. Personally, I doubt the accuracy of the report. I'm not inclined to unquestionly believe anything coming from the club. Smells like a bit of character assassination.

Decent point. Maybe Hughton's instigated this. Strange time to transfer list him though. Really? The Villa thrashing and performance of Williamson made it possible. Public wouldn't stand for it otherwise. Lulled into a sense of confidence.
