Crouch or Adriano tbh, don't need both. Diarra's not realistic - only signed for Pompey in Jan and unlike with what happened at Arsenal he has no real reason for wanting to leave. Metzelder would be a gamble but if he stays fit would be absolute quality.

so he is potentially availible! He's only on loan at Sao Paulo iirc from Inter so even if we were to sign him, the deal would have to go through them and so his disputes at Sao Paulo won't affect his availability.

Because we have no one else capable at the monmet, if we have the cash it would be first place i would strengthen. He out preforms Barton most weeks. Without a proper playmaker in the midfield, Barton's having to play out of character a bit imo. It looks to me like he's being relied on for creativity which he isn't great at. Get a decent AM in alongside him and Butt and I think he'll cut out the hollywood long balls much like Butt did.

Makes me feel a little easier, true or not.

Why not go for Fred from Lyon? Seems realistic enough if Spurs and Boro came close to signing him. Relatively young as well.

Most of them are big names rather than being that good anymore. Mata, Silva, Banega, Maduro and Albiol are all very promising young players, wouldn't say they're big names past their sell by date.

They've won a cup this season as well, would be crazy going down with the Spanish Cup in the cabinet.

David Silva and Raul Albiol would be nice, maybe Maduro as well..

How were Enrique and Owen today?

Cock

at Kamara just then

Come on Toon!

mackems.gif we've lost out for a player who many thought was too good for us anyway to a team who have been better than us in the past 5 years and have european football, We Dont. we were on the verge of relegation 5 games ago, now the backroom staff are s**** for not managing to entice moderic to sign. we may not have got him, but it shiows our intent, and there are plenty more good players out there. Agree, hardly the fault of Wise, Jimenez etc that Modric has a twat for an agent and Spurs are a slightly more attractive proposition than us at the moment. At least see who we bring in during the summer before slamming the new set-up.

IF... Don't see why people are so keen to write him off. At least see what KK thinks and does with him, a player like him would flourish in a 4-3-3. Should be given a go for sure.

If Emre gets his act together we've got a creative midfielder as good and more proven than the likes of Modric imo.

Debating whether to get the 3rd kit now as its half price or wait and see what happens with the new away kit.

Penalty Chelsea

Gutted tbh. Ah well, still nice to see us looking at players of his caliber. We're in for a very exciting summer imo.

Anyone know when our new away kit's being unveiled?

Agree but Riise will likely be expecting first team football ALL the time.

Amorebieta has said he is going nowhere. Enrique getting replaced Didn't know about Amorebieta so fair play but I'm positive Enrique won't be replaced.

Given Beye Faye Amorebieta Enrique Butt Emana Modric Owen Martins Gomis

We'll see what happens tomorrow I guess.
