Leicester bid £7m for N'Zonzi according to those trusty Sky Sources. Doubt Stoke would be willing to sell to a Premiership team but if so we should be in there, think he'd give us some steel that we need in midfield.

Club legend now working in a Mike Ashley call centre, dearey me.

Surely they wouldn't sell him so soon after buying? Another one I'd hate to see playing for palace, always liked Santon.

Just saw Kieron Dyer on that shite premier league fantasy football club. He had Nobby as his right winger ahead of Beckham. Nice.

So we're in for him, but just 'waiting' for him to lower his wage demands. Might take a while, by which time he'll be on a five-year deal elsewhere.

Always sell before we buy, always. If we sell Cisse now, we might have to wait until Jan or even next summer to see if the valuations have come down on our targets. By which time their valuations will have trebled. 'The prices these clubs are asking is ridiculous.'

He's not that bad looking Odd, Casanova is usually quite a charmer.

'Sky sources understand Newcastle are willing to sell Cisse to fund moves for two new strikers.' Thank God we have some saleable assets, we'd never be able to buy anyone otherwise.

Wijnaldum looks great after some Dennis Wise scouting. Luuk de Jong looks good too...

A career 1 in 3 striker in the lower leagues? Nah.

Where does the English player premium originate from? In general English players are technically inferior to the majority of players from other European nations, and the England team hasn't been past the quarter finals of a major tournament since 1996, so why do English players cost 2-3 times more than players from, for example, France? When did the whole paying over the odds for English players thing begin, it's really quite weird.

Chelsea close to getting Falcao on loan according to BBC. Don't know why.

If his punditry on Match of the Day is anything to go by he's fucking clueless, so no thanks.

So 14 goals in 9, which means 5 in the other 27 (wiki says he played 36 games). That was a James Beattie-esque run of form Averaged a goal every 125 mins on the field last season - http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/bas-dost/leistungsdaten/spieler/56331 Scored a few when Twente won the league under McClaren too. Fair enough, sounds better when put like that

We got letters this morning too. May put the prepaid envelope to good use and outline all the reasons exactly why we cancelled and aren't renewing.

I think he's a decent player with a good upside. He's been steadily improving these past two years and he's still quite young.

So is Juanmi good, or are people just speculating that he's good?

Clearly has talent, but wasn't getting in Hull's team last season.

Great news. Although I thought one of the apparent 'problems' with Garde was that he wanted to bring his own staff with him, so seems a bit strange that they're seemingly allowing McClaren to do just that.

One of the good things about the McClaren appointment is that, by most accounts, he is a good coach. For that reason alone he should be better than Pardew, and may actually be able to make better use of the players we currently have.

Pretty uninspiring appointment for them considering the other managers they were getting linked with. Bilic's club record is actually pretty poor.

Because he's dodgy as fuck.

One day on Twitter and he starts with this. He just can't help himself, the saggy tit.
