does look a little strange I noticed anita had a similar thing in one of the pics yesterday too

Dunno if it's just me but he looks skinny as hell in the training pics from yesterday.

Ofcourse he is staying and ofcourse he will somehow get another 3 year deal. Even if we sign a new striker I would still expect Cisse to probably get sold before Shola. He'll never leave

I never really watched a load of him like but is he not fairly reliant on pace? Yep. Once its gone its gone. I agree we need pace upfront, probably why we are also looking at Bent, just worry how long that lasts at that age, just got to look at Henry (using him as he didn't really have any big injuries to lose it say like Owen) to see how quickly it can go. I seem to remember him struggling badly with injuries in his last year with Arsenal before he joined Barcelona? Had a lot of trouble with his achiles too right?

Could be argued we are running the risk of more injuries if we play our 3 best CBs each week rather than resting and rotating one of them.

I still get the horrible feeling we're not going to do any business until we sell Cabaye to someone.

If Taylor is fit I still think Pardew will choose him ahead of Mapou every time.

I caught a bit of this "celebrating 10 years with Abramovich" in passing and did make me want to hurl a bit.

Howcome Villa have suddenly gone mental signing so many players? I thought Lerner had completely given up caring and refused to spend any more money.

I hate Perch and yet I am sad to see him leave. If we don't sign lots of players this summer he is a pretty important versatile squad player who can slot in where necessary when needed.

Wullie is bang on. I'm the same, I'd almost forgotten how much I hate him the last 2 weeks and then without fail he pops up with another belter of an interview.

Yep, and I imagine absolutely nothing will be done about it. Samba's value should have plummeted after his 'performances' for QPR.

How the f*** do you know who Pardew's targets are? Seriously A journo picks a random player, puts it in his paper, if they are good, it's Carr, if they are old and s***, it's Pardew! That's what I meant. The papers keep linking us with certain players and say "oh Carr wants Aubameyang but Pardew wants Bent, Tomkins etc" I'm laughing at how lazy the journos are who keep linking us with either WestHam players or his former players.

Do Pardew's targets all have to be either former players of his or current west ham players?

Would be gorgeous without the sponsors.

This reminds me of the South Park episode where Cartman is taking credit for the "fish-dicks" joke and he and Jimmy are partners.

Everyone has been so snappy and angry on here since last season. It's crazy what Newcastle does to us

I think I'm even more annoyed if they make the wonga black now as it would mean the whole stupid incorporation of the blue was a complete waste of time (it was anyway)

Steve Bruce man haha signing elmohamady

Be very disappointed if we only got €20m for him. Especially from the money bags Monaco or PSG

People have a point about reused templates. Particularly this year seems there is a ton of teams with the same kit in different colours.

Sports direct. Whenever I've been in there it's absolute chaos where there appears to be no layout at all with everything randomly put anywhere.

Baines is 29!? Christ thought he was still like 25
