I read in a couple places that this doubt was started by some dodgy agent & in the end Mbemba had a bone scan that confirmed the 1994 date is the correct one. So that should really put this to bed.

We won't, makes no sense to buy strikers who are not comfortable outside the box for big money when it's extremely likely we won't play with two strikers. To be honest as we're likely to play one up due to De Jong starting the season with Mitrovic and Cisse wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. Get Mbemba in and then another CB and we'll be heading towards being a decent outfit. I'd still be disappointed if we don't get a good quality winger in. Given the attempts to sign Thauvin though it might be on the cards anyway. I use disappointed in the loosest way possible. I really mean my low expectations will be fulfilled.

So a contract to keep him at the club until he is 36/37? Imagine a 37 year old Williamson still first choice centre half. edit: ah bollocks, caught out by an ancient tweet.

Back in March a Belgian newspaper said Mbemba's agent confirmed our interest so could be a goer.

Other than being captain for a couple years at Ajax with great success, he was also made vice-captain at the club immediately last season so you'd have to think he has some influence there.

It's funny how McClaren emphasised getting the right personalities but the two players we seem to be most in for right now are known for having pretty poor attitudes.

That's my general view of this. Though I'd hope any loan to Marseille wouldn't have an auto buy clause.

Sounds very generous. Pretty sure the lad doesn't want to come here though. I might be wrong but I'd have thought signing Wijnaldum, and maybe Mitrovic, might change some players minds about the club perhaps.

Withabrick has a pretty good hit record with this stuff right? La Provence say it's a final bid so it could easily just be turned down but seems an extremely generous offer to me given a year ago Cabella's reputation was quite a bit higher than Thauvin. All over twitter than: According to @laprovence, Newcastle have made a final offer of €17m + Cabella loan for Thauvin.

This is being pushed by la Provence today apparently.

Probably no where as his leg's are always so fucked he can't walk.

Based on a quick Google Wijnaldum got the official one and Guardado got named player of the season by the biggest football paper and magazine.

...and that's why Arsenal won't win the league under Wenger. Arsenal have won the league under Wenger 3 times. Yeah i'm a facetious ass.

That literally was worthless. Every suggestion or idea by the fans, & ever difficult question was just ignored.

Could have just got the coaching staff in place in a more timely manner.

Good god that defence is horrific.

Yeah wikipedia says he played 7 times but he played a full season and was in the Championship team of the season.

Charlie Austin won't move up here because his wife won't allow it? Don't tell his fiance, she'll be furious.

It's hard to forget the cancerous growth when people keep shoving it in your face and telling you how much better off you were with the cancerous growth.

Jesus, by which game does Rodgers get sacked?

You had a super bollocks start too last season too right?

I hear that Ayoze Perez if going to retire. I called it 15 years before it happened. ITK.

I think Steve Black is more than a potential name given he retweeted this: @B1ackie Every good wish to you & Steve Mac.Two top lads who I have the greatest of respect for. Always grateful for your help in tough days Loads of other goodbyes from QPR people too.

It does count in some countries I think. I seem to remember South Korea counts it. Am I talking utter bollocks?

interesting the word "deserve" being thrown around a lot in here...who does deserve a shot at the job out of interest? Me, I'm fucking quality. Or someone who has some recent success in top flight football.
