Can anyone remember what did Gerry Armstrong say about the other Spanish signings...Luque + Marcellino (ouch)

horses for courses...hopefully we can switch it around a bit next season and not be too hung up on formations. Modern football is fluid and players have to be up to the task of changing as the game progresses

Since Keegan commented on the transfer, at least he approved it....if it was not his recommendation in the first place. Let's just enjoy incoming transfers and worry about these stuff later I hope it wasn't his recommendation, that means that the system is working and more importantly they are agreeing with each other and working together. Things working well at Newcastle? Come on....

Why meet in Dubai and not the usual chippies somewhere in North East England

Probably had a late night and wanted to hide his panda eyes. Still living his Casino lifestyle

Yup. he could have been Rob Lee Mark II in this new Keegan era

King Kev has always been one that dared to dream. But with age and experience, it has added a touch of reality and maturity to his dreams. This can only augur well for us next season and beyond as has been seen by the recent displays and interviews

If Deco is in the 25 to 28 years age range, do you think he will only cost 15M?

Interestingly, all 3 strikers up front came from the 3 previous managers - Owen from the Souness regime, Oba from Roeder and BSA brought in Viduka

Is every summer fun? We always have hundreds of speculations and rumours every time but at least this time, with Keegan around, we can trust "proper" attacking and hopefully creative players will be signed.

precisely. i think its good that we've kept round on as well May not be around much longer if Anal gets it right. Ronnie claims Toffees are sniffing around at taking Round.

He walked because he saw Harewood coming on and did not have the stomach to face him again

Zoggy signed a 5 year deal last summer and it dosen't look as though its hindering him from a move this coming close season???

Surprised Sven is still going around signing players. Chairman Thaksin is returning to Thailand in May to face charges and clear his name and surely that will take the wind out of the Man City sail in terms of available funds. Can't see how Thaksin can continue with this support when his own freedom (read fortune) and that of his entire clan is at stake

Any why would the aforementioned clubs offer him a job? So that they can help train him for his ultimate destiny of managing us?

How is he causing havoc. Everyone's been calling for him to state his position and he ahs done so. Damned if he keeps quiet and damned if he confirms his intentions.

Has any journal or tabloid even attempted to ask him about the possibility of him taking this on? With so many "close sources" taking shite, surprised not to have seen any of Mourinho's sources taking to the UK Press

The positives of this humiliating defeat is ,,,,, 1. It will hit MA & Mort hard that unless they bring in a manager that can inspire and change things around quickly, we're pretty much f^^^ed for the season as 4th from bottom Wigan is only 6 points behind. 2. Will Mourinho be motivated to take on this semmingly impossible challenge now made even bigger. No better way to show he is indeed the special one. This defeat has showcased to the world the state we're in 3. If indeed Keegan, Shearer or Sir Bobby watched rhe game, will this be the moment that stirs their heart and make them rise above their reseverations in coming back to do something before its all too late

Why do you keep assuming only the fans have heard of everyone and MA & CM does not have a clue? MA hs more at stake than any of us and I'm sure he can afford to buy Football Manager too

Why not? Its probably already been sewn up and as long as Mort is around to hold the Press Conference, dont see any issues with MA being away

Good call

Up and uncoming Foreign Managers may not always cut it. Didn't Portsmouth go fo some french bloke some time back and Fulham went for Tigana etc. With MA's cash, he will probaly want a tried and tested name. Having spent so in buying over the cludb and clearing the debts, fairly instant sucess is what he wants immediately.

The bit about "going through proper channels" may also refer to Jose as he is supposed to stay out of EPL for this season and Mort will need to negotiate with Chelski.

Sir Alex is there too. Looking at one of our lot?
