-------------Tiote---------------- ---Toulalan---------Cabaye--- HBA----------------------------Ba --------------Cisse----------------- Well that's me sold Same old transfer window, always linked with everyone...

Toulalan? Would be a decent signing but not sure where he would fit in...

The FA will blatantly intervene with regards to this (nah). Definitely shouldn't be allowed, still though Barton and his "ambition" haha.

Yesterday's game was average at best. GB's goal was a decent move and Butland looked rather sharp but overall it wasn't that good of a game. I was alternating between the footy and the swimming (was watching it in a bar and it had the swimming on on the other screen). Still though, very much looking forward to the Quarters against South Korea. Where's that being played btw?

This transfer saga is really dragging on. I'm starting to get a bit worried now, really want him to come here and it probably comes as no surprise that it's the fee that's stopping this from happening. Still hoping for some good news before the start of the season...

Jim White is standing by.

I'm still of the opinion that he's going nowhere btw. I've been confident of that for a while.

50 minutes left.

Oh my...

Oooo, Lee's being properly emotional tonight. Tool. Meltdown complete?

Very much so. We have the possibility of signing a top international full back and £6.2 million sounds just around right. Howay Ashley/Llambias, do the right thing...

Still annoyed about the spikes but the more I think about it, the more I actually want to buy it. Think that may be somewhat down to home sickness...

Well done ladies

Ah a signing! This is Good. All the best to him.

Davies is more mobile than Carroll? Carroll's ability is meh atm (most likely down to confidence issues) but there's no way Kevin Davies is a more mobile player than Carroll. I've heard it all now. Btw, hope West Ham get serious about this move. I know they've denied this £2 million loan deal but it's definitely not the last we'll hear from them with regards to Carroll.

Ah so we "hope to sign" Debuchy this week - can't see it personally, this is going to drag on for a while yet... (No idea where my negativity's come from like).

Rumour has it the Scousers are going to sign a superstar on loan this week. David Villa's been mentioned

Ben Arfa's best role is coming in from the wing, just give him a free role there and all will be well.

Mark Douglas, forever the man with the latest news, oh wait...

There's no reason why we can't vary it a bit during a game. The way I see it is that when we're on the ball and attacking, it'll be a 4-3-3 but if we're defending, we can easily switch to a 4-4-2/4-5-1 to cover both flanks and the middle - we have the players to make this work.

I'm going to guess... "Newcastle United will sign someone this week." Simples.

Gutted for him. Speedy recovery Leon! He had a good chance of really setting the Championship alight - actually would have backed him to finish top scorer.

Good on them... Hahaha.

Wonderful finish.

Inspired substitution.
