Don't think we really need Keane tbh, as I think Ben Arfa is being signed as a second striker type anyway. May have to ship out someone like Smith though, as we've gone from being weak in the middle of the park to having way too many.

I love Chris, I really do. But that sentence makes no sense. How can he be "just reaching an age where his best years are now ahead of him", surely they've been ahead of him since birth? Hughton out.

Nah, we're clearly going places whereas Madrid are on the decline. Doesn't wanna board a sinking ship, which is fair enough really.

Got to say, fair play to Ashley on this one, didn't let Marseilles hold us to ransom and we look to have got our man. The last 2 transfer windows actually have been pretty quality, both last January and so far this summer we've identified positions that need strengthening, and gone out and gotten the players we need, spending money when needed. Well happy, tbh.

He wouldn't have got into their starting XI. So, yes, it is. Fair enough, but still, turning down Madrid and Mourinho, probably the best manager in the world to play for us makes me pretty happy if true. He only turned down the 2nd best manager of the world, man. He's joined the best one. Sorry, how silly of me.

What's all this about him knocking back Real Madrid? Is that for real?

Would rather get one-size back tbh.

Not too bothered tbh, Colo and Williamson so far have proven to be a far more effective defensive partnership, and we have Campbell and Kadar for backup. Would like to have seen him at RB but as Perch did pretty well there against Villa I'm not too bothered about him there either. We don't need him, he's asking for stupid wages, he can fuck off.

This should be forum policy, tbh. L.

Chelsea fan mate of mine posted on my facebook: "Just watches the goals on match of the day and I never thought I would say this..... Andy Carroll for England!"

Caicedo would be ideal tbh, good 'Plan B' if the Ben Arfa deal never comes off.

Carroll HATRICK. FUCK ME I WANT TO MARRY HIM!!!

Hahaha, beautiful, just beautiful.

Bye bye Barton's tache I guess. Fucking hell, I'm so happy.

Guess Messi was right, Jonas really is one of the best players in the league.

Add Ben Arfa to this and we'll win the league.

Just got back from my grans where there is no internet or ESPN. Fucking hell, thought I was seeing things when I logged in. Can't wait for MOTD tonight.

Hahahaha. Oh my, how fucking shit are Wigan?!

If this is true, could it mean the end of us chasing Ben Arfa? If we've spent 3.5m on this guy, I can't see Ashley giving another 6 or so for Ben Arfa.

Now I'm getting my hopes up again. Fuck this thread, man, fuck it.

Imo Steven Ireland is as good as Milner when on form, Villa have robbed City there.

Yos?

That article claims personal terms are agreed. Ah, didn't read it tbh. That's a bit gutting then, to say the least.
