All this news is from West Hams end, presumably in an attempt to unsettle him. We want Rafa to stay, Rafa wants to stay, we need to calm down.

We should definitely be looking at him. He will end up at Everton or Leicester IMO.

He's probably a decent coach. He's an awful manager.

Fair play like, it takes some going to be that much of a cunt, years of dedication. Imagine him in the Barca dressing room turning to Messi, Xavi and Iniesta and saying "Let me tell you about this manager in England."

My worry is that Spurs might go for Rafa.

Those poor kids. RIP

Can you not loan two from the same club? Perhaps I read it wrong, maybe it just said we are interested in both.

Girls. Calm doon.

Linked with a double loan move for Kenedy and Abraham.

Yeah this is a classic Ashley transfer, I'm sure this will go through.

I give up predicting what this fat cunt will do next.

Imagine Perez playing like this for a full season. They have all been superb. Lascelles the winner obvs.

Get this done ASAP.

There's a definite attempt from the press to flood the place with scare-mongering. We know the ramifications of these talks, we don't need the press to ram it down our throats. As far as I can tell, nothing has changed. We should expect to here something next week.

Full backs are nowhere near a priority. Dubravka, Kenedy, Striker, Number 10, Centre mid.... then anywhere else where we can improve the squad.

Our last 4 matches have probably done our chances of keeping him no harm. If he had kept his/our form he might have courted even more attention. Hope we can get an answer off Chelsea nice and early. If they want a buy back clause, give them it. Its all about the here and now for us.

I could see us getting Luke Shaw on loan.

Didn't realise this was on sky.

What makes you think he's a better defender than Dummett? Also, what makes you think anyone in the Scottish league could make it here?

As Rodney said about Del, "He won't die.... he's not the type."

Carefully, Crumpy goes crying to the mods.

They have only dropped 2 or 3 percent but it's enough to cost you in this league.

Didn't seem in the best of moods in his presser yesterday. Didn't want to talk about his future, at all.

Watching Hughton position his players on the touchline was very Rafa-esq. Funny I can't ever remember Pardew moving his players about like pieces on a chessboard.
