It's ridiculous because the ref has seen it. How can he see that and not think it's a red?

Nzonzi should have been sent off.

ooh Nzonzi's nose. That's got to be painful. edit: oh apparently that's just his nose and it's not broken.

I think the second was more a Taylor error. The first was a poor challenge to give away a freekick but he also did a lot of good in the game.

That was horrible to live through.

Despite my post above btw I would prefer us to sign Ince myself as I think he does look like a real talent and plays in that wide forward role where I think we really need some quality.

Same outlay? I'd be fuming if we spent that on Ince. Thankfully we wouldn't anyway. Why? You'd be fuming if we spent it on Ince but not on PEA? I wouldn't be bothered at all. Ince is clearly miles better than his division suggests. Sometimes you have to pay going rate Well for a start, Ince can't play up front which is what we need so somebody else would need to follow him in. He's a good player but I wouldn't want to be paying much more than £4m for him though. As for the going rate, it's fine paying it when it's justified. Not many people would bat an eyelid if we spent ~£10m on a versatile front man like PEA or an established striker like van Wolfswinkel. If we spent that money on Ince there would be a lot of queries surrounding the fee, just as has happened with the Zaha transfer. 4m? You'd be lucky to get a player that good for that price. Why is it okay with Van Wolfswinkle, he's not established? He could come here and be absolutely awful? I think if we could get ince for 7/8m it would be a great piece of business. I guarantee he will be worth a lot more in the future How can you say Van Wolfswinkel is not established, especially in a comparison to Ince. He has several seasons of top flight football behind him with a 1 in 2 ratio. He's clearly established.

I presume this lad can play as a wide forward?

Krul Debuchy Thuram Moore Maldini Davids Yaya Toure Messi Cabaye Bellamy Cole Good team but I'm not sure about Carlton Cole up front.

Just seen he was at Lille for a season a few years ago. Send Agent Cabaye in.

I like the comment "marveux is a poor mans Aaron Lennon, more suited to be a sprinter." I mean, I don't even know where to start.

You could put Marveux there and have either Jonas, Bigi or Perch in midfield.

Christ is that the fifth time that Mirror article has been posted?

I'm never switching it off agin until the deal is done.

Am I being intensely stupid or did Fat Sam not get sacked the season before?

who're beIN Sport?

Is there a normal scouse accent?

What are these rumours?

How can we really be unhappy with these players when they come into the first team when they have been given 0 opportunities to develop on loan? It's so rare that a young player can step into a premiership team and handle it without having loan experience first.

Ba scores

Did Perch go off injured?

It seems he has done very well in both his loans (Gateshead & St. Mirren). It'd be good to see him tomorrow but I'd really want to see him do well in a loan in the championship. Still two half season loans of regular football is great. I just wish all our youth (especially players like Sammy and Ferguson) had at least this behind them.

I actually fell for the "Debuchy pulls out" a second time.

I'd have Anita ahead of Jonas in that role every single day of the week.

The article says we've lost interest in Douglas due to poor form this year. I thought someone on here said he's been excellent?
