SUPERTOON

Assuming these deals for Hanley and Hayden go through, were else to people think we will be looking. I would consider us finished, just replacements for Sissoko and Gini, and anyone else who may leave.

Mark Douglas says they want at least £6 million. Rather we went elsewhere tbh.

Blackburn fans in Twitter said he was their POTY last season. Calling him a solid defender but not good on the ball.

Think he's a right back?

Media suggesting Palace about to sign Tomkins for 12.5 million, and have agreed personal terms with Benteke and have bid 25 million and are close to agreeing that deal.

According to Mark Douglas we want a LB, RB, and two CB, one of the CB we want has to have championship experience but with the quality to be able to play in the premier league should we be promoted.

Be interesting to see how he does, I always felt he was only performing for us because he wanted to be in the England squad. Think we kind of overrated him as well because of the rubbish and lack of effort before him. Would have been great in the championship, but still think he is an average premier league player.

The Matt Ritchie deal is a strange one if its true. He would be a great addition, but he was a regular for Bournemouth last season, and they rejected a big bid from West Ham a few weeks back. Him signing for us makes no sense.

Krul surely leaving then.

Tells you everything you need to know about the FA, and why we've failed for the past 2 decades. Who would you go for? I pretty much can't think of a suitable candidate that would be prepared to take the job. What a mess. Think it would be perfect for Wenger, although he would never take it.

Anyone got sky sports news on? They actually have McClaren talking about how England should play and what they should do. The smirk is back as well.

Southgate favourite and Pardew second favourite.

Will be a positive change having most if not all the main signings in before pre season. Not like last year with the joke of the USA tour where only Gini was there.

£58.9 million for Aubameyang.

Koeman on the verge of taking over at Everton, him and his agent on the way there for talks.

Didn't Ashley say there is no money left to spend, just after we appointed Benitez? Pretty sure I remember him saying it in that interview where they were on about him going before the MPs.

This relegation keeps getting better.

Sissoko by an absolute mile. Half hearted, and constantly talks about going to bigger clubs.

Carroll should be in, Wilshire should be nowhere near it.

Fans singing 1-0 to the championship.

Ashley and co probably don't even know we are relegated yet.

If Rafa is going i would rather he just go before the game, saves us the further torture of what might have been. There should be a toxic atmosphere towards the board, but there will be a few boos and same again next season.

Based on? Based on every team being poor in that division, and as shown every season in there that anyone can beat anyone. Don't get the assumption that we're going to be winning games in the Championship. Current squad whilst 'may' be good enough isn't what we are going to be starting with. Going to be a mass exist - who knows what starting 11 we'll have and worse who will be be managing it. Unless Rafa stays the future is very much bleak. I am not saying we are going to win, i am saying that we have a chance in every game, unlike this season when you could write games of before kick off.

At least we have more games, and go into every game with a chance of winning, something which was brilliant last time.
