I know but they had further to jump. To improve us we needed Debuchy and a backup forward, we got neither which is frustrating but we are still better off than most teams. I think Spurs/Chelsea will move away from us but Arsenal will end up out of CL this year. I think Liverpool are not much stronger either. The other teams while improving do not have the quality we have throughout the team

Are they further ahead than us though? - they had some right dross and need quite a few players. We already had Ba, Cisse, Ben Arfa, Tiote, Cabaye, Krul, Colo, Taylor, Jonas, Santon etc. Even looking at their squads now they are not as good as us. Yes they have spent money but does not mean they will be any good, I reckon West Ham will struggle tbh

He's unique Joey like, shorts as high as possible

Maybe they were. Imagine what Falcao and co could do to us! Yeah pretty glad we avoided them in waffa now

Funny as fuck this, why could they not be this bad against us

Not sure its weaker overall, just up front with backups. Big chance for vuckic, sammy, Campbell potentially

Class just jumped up at that

How close is he to first team action? Going to St mirren isn't he

Tav from the left had a lot of forward running n looked good on ball, not sure about his defensive discipline though as he seemed to just bomb on, looks very good for future though

I want us to play the best teams make it more interesting and help us raise our game, rather that than some of the shit villa etc played in groups. Have they changed format this year to 4 teams a group - wasn't it 5 or 6 n never played all home/away previously ?

Fuck off

Hopefully pardew realises 4-4-2 is not working, we look more fluid in 4-3-3 and create more chances

We need to lift our game, need a cisse goal and cabaye to step up the pace. Would like tiote back

He looked up for it and terrorised the full back, much better when ball played in front of him. Needs to learn to cross earlier instead of hitting byline all the time. We need that variation

Great price for him. That's 2 we've missed out on in Clyne and Van der Wiel, both of whom I reckon we could have convinced to come. Honestly no idea why we didn't go for clyne, how much was he 5 mill ? Bargain for him I think. Thought Zaha would leave Palace and if 4 mill is true for reading, thats another bargain Think Clyne was free? Not sure. Either way it's a bit of a joke. If so then fuck me what were we playing at, young, English and decent

Makes you wonder what we have been doing all summer that we still have no right back in. Wonder if the only money we had went on Anita, strange we offered for Carroll and debuchy yet I'm sure Pardew told Ryder that the funds were not there, don't think he will be happy. I will still be happy if we keep everyone n look at youngsters this season, big risk but not as bad as previous years as first 11 is quality

Thought he looked quality, great close control, technique, passing and link up. Needs game time to get up to speed, will be class when he does

Who cares...how many right-footers use the left regularly? James Perch? Aye but Perchinho is different gravy

This will be an awful awful day as usual, nothing changes, we never do anything good on deadline day, just close it now so that we keep tiote and cabaye

Not really Rodgers will probably play Sterling there or another attacker while Downing sits at Left Back (please make this happen when Ben Arfa plays against them)

I honestly don't understand why Clubs do business this late in Transfer window, it all seems a rush at last minute but they have had 3 months since end of last season to sort out what they want and put deals in place. As its not the Manager that organised the finances etc, how come clubs are not putting deals in place sooner that transfer window, only have to register on 1st July. I know there is a knock on effect and players could be injured / you could lose a player or two, but surely could be sorted by return to training. I am a big fan of either doing away with transfer window or finishing beginning of August before season starts, Maybe start transfer window end of May

I go to matches on own for cup games alot of time and never felt out of place. Been to Cinema once on own and felt like a total loner

There is that NO9 bar Steve Wraith has, cheap beer but hot as f*** inside, went in fat as f*** and came out only slightly fat as f***. I could be watching the game in the north pole and I'd still sweat like a beast, especially when Simpson is on the ball. Which isn't for long as he has normally hoofed it or lost it within a few seconds

I was tempted to go at spurs game but thought it would be packed and take ages to get served? How was it to get service at the bar, take a while? Took me about 5-10 mins for first pint, but went back and took about a minute, not to bad tbh
