right decision

IF that's IF we did get him I would be a VERY happy chappy.. the thought of the creativity we could/would have in midfield. ----------------------Krul Simo-------Tayls-----------Colo---------Jose --------Cabaye----------------Tiote ---------------------Arfa ---Zoggy------------------------------Jonas ----------------------Ba And with Long we could play 4-4-2 too if necessary. A better RB than Simpson, and we're almost golden. Simpson isnt the weak link in that defence Colo's not that bad! http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/event/17004667FFDFB6F8?artistid=763942&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=3 SAKES

indeed

hahaha

Ba Ben Arfa Jonas Tiote Cabaye Barton ?

Most of the loanees they had, I guess. ahh yes of course. brown and o'shea will give them a bit more experience and grit against the lesser teams, but any teams with pace up front are gonna have a field day. looking forward to Ba, Ben Arfa, Jonas, Marveaux walking past them in August.

have they actually shipped anyone out to make way?

reckon bruce will rest all the new signings on the first day to make sure they're fit to play us?

quid each from sports direct, some of the carroll money's gone on the underpants too, get that in the chron.

what's this sudden trend with them all calling us jealous all about? why are we all so jealous?

Even if it saves us £2million by waiting? points get you further up the table, which gets you more money I agree, but no-one could say with any conviction that if we lose those games, it's because we didn't buy Zog sooner. Just seems a pointless argument. If you were the owner of this club, of course you'd be waiting for the moment when you feel you can get the best deal. What's the point in paying £1million more for someone than is neccessary? i could say with total conviction that we'd 1. have a better chance of securing his signature if we didn't wait until the last minute 2. have a better chance of acquiring points with him in our squad instead of someone else's for the first 3 games of the season getting the best deal for me would be paying what he's worth and getting him, that'd be it really. we've already sold someone for what is by all accounts a lot more than he's worth so we can afford to pay what someone's worth once this summer at least? but yeah i know what you're saying

spoken like a man who's never ran anywhere in his life

he's burning inside man

Thats exactly how I see it. Good old 1 in 1 out strategy. What is our squad number at now? 23 is it? Throw in a striker and a left back and that will take us to 25, so it's reasonable to expect a 1 in 1 out strategy after that tbf. fine, just get rid of guthrie, raylor, routledge or smith instead of barton If it was that easy to get rid of some of them don't you think they would have gone already? are you telling me we couldnt get rid of ONE of the first 3? My understanding is they're up for sale and haven't gone anywhere as of yet. Same goes for Barton. if it has to be 1 in 1 out try and get rid of the players who have little impact on the team, not players who have higher wages, just because they have higher wages. that's all i'm saying. There are no takers as yet for any of them so it makes sense to get rid of everyone that has no long term future at the club as soon as possible if it means replacements can be brought in, Barton included. fine, fine. just get rid of any of them 3 before barton, he can play football a bit.

a list of excuses in the local paper, i despair.

it would seem likely wouldnt it. i wonder if villa will get him for less than they receive for downing. they'll get a better player AND make a profit, there'll be absolutely nothing for the fans to argue about.

The four players we've already signed not count? If it was me I'd want every signing in before the start of the season at the very latest. Well so would everyone, but in reality it's not always possible. it might be if we put a bid in for him

he'll more than likely be fit to play against us this season, cant see them looking too far past that

any club they try and offload him too would have to pay his wages like, they could easily have to pay him for the full term Aye, another Alan Smith situation, basically. indeed, i dont imagine he's gone for the ambitious project at this point in his career.
