SUPERTOON

Thought it said he can buy a striker and a full back and after that it is sell before we buy?

Didn't Douglas say we wouldn't be signing anyone on loan and we were not interested in Sturridge only a couple of weeks ago?

What the bit about them being happier with their business than we are about ours? Not from my point of view.

Hmmm, I wonder if he's going to go on the US tour. Pardew said he is, so no he is not.

Most of our signings under Ashley have been like this.

Isn't Ba on quite a low wage then bonuses for appearences?

I think we are a striker and defender short now.

Few rumours saying they are in for Schweinsteiger.

Keep forgetting we have him coming back.

It's a f***ing joke mate... Carroll - £30,000 a week Nolan - £40,000 a week Campbell - £25,000 a week Kuqi - £10,000 a week So lets say £100k a week, and that's being very conservative. Ba - £35,000 a week Marveaux - £35,000 a week Cabaye - £45,000 a week Abeid - £15,000 a week The wage bill has gone up by £50k a week, tops! Don't forget Tiote's new contract.

This guy isn't winger though is he?

Said we are not in for Zoggy.

Depends, we may not have been paying all wages for Routledge & Xisco when they were on loan plus Ba & Marveaux (higher wages as free transfer) & Cabaye to add then take away Campbell, Kuqi & Nolan You don't give players higher wages because they are on a free, just means they get a bigger signing on fee.

He hasn't said anything most didn't already know.

Yeah and Michael Johnson (who the whole forum wanted as part of that deal) has turned out brilliantly hasn't he! Yeah and you make a great point there don't you!

We wouldn't even mention Sturridge if we where in talks with Chelsea over Tiote, it would be like Given to Man City all over again.

How do you know?

West Ham want Ranger according to today's chronicle.

Not panicing yet, but imo our aim should be to start this season with a squad better than the one we started with last, not what we ended it with. At this point, we have or will.

There is still well over a month to go till the window shuts, and at the minute we have a stronger squad than the one that finished last season. Now isn't the time to panic.

They are a top striker away from finishing above Arsenal, imo.

He isn't but i thought he would have cost more.

Wolves agree £7 million fee for Roger Johnson.

Arsenal have confirmed Bendtner is in talks with another club, doesn't mention a name but we have been linked in the past.
