Honestly, they're going down next year. Sunderland, Hull and Play Off Winner.

It's been even worse than when I get involved, stay clear. Cheers, lads

Has anything happened in the last 12 pages? Anything worth reading?

Baggio & Del Piero amongst other reasons. Was like when England had Shearer, Cole, Sheringham, Fowler, Ferdinand and Wright at the same time. Players like Sutton and Collymore barely got a look in.

Some quality names there. Nacer Chadli is someone we wer linked with in recent windows as well. Decent player. Some I know, some I don't but they all fit the current assumed transfer blueprint. Some I know we've been linked previously & others are coming off the back of a decent season. It'll be interested (well it will to me) to see how many of them crop up over the next few months. There were a few others from different leagues too but I left them out as I don't think we'll be scouting too far or wide. If anyone knows owt about: David Ospinna (Nice) Benoît Costil (Rennes) Nikolay Mihailov (FC Twente) Cheikh M'Bengue (Toulouse) Cheikhou Kouyaté (Anderlecht) Stefan de Vrij (Feyenoord) Ryad Boudebouz (Sochaux) Christian Brüls (Gent) Hannes van der Bruggen (Gent) Václav Kadlec (Sparta Prague) Saber Khelifa (Evian) I'd be interested to read it. Ospina does some Nice saves but Costil cant Rennes very fast. M'Bengue is a winner - he doesn't like Toulouse! Boudebouz is too cocky, he's Sochaux of himself. Also, I think Bruls will Gent to another club.

Dunno if its on here already but apparently SJP was voted the easiest ground to get to for fans. Just read the top 5 and bottom 5 on Keys & Gray.

If we keep him, I'll be fuming. The signs are starting to point to it, though. I agree that we need Prem experience though, just dont trust Pardew with any aspect of my football club. Prick.

Footballers are dicks.

I can see Wigan getting something from Arsenal, but probably not the win they need.

You're one of the good 'uns

Hi Temuri, You know what? You're absolutely right. I'll sell them all in the summer. Thanks for your support, Alan Like he has any say

Absolutely nailed that questionnaire My question to Pardew was: Your negative tactics contradict the players we have. Why do you persist with them?

Any song with Goodbye in, basically.

If true (big if), I'd take that money. I like him as a person, as a recruitment officer and I like what he could be on the pitch. Unfortunately, it hasn't happened enough - not that its his fault. Cheers, Alan.

That's why 'Marveaux, Cabaye' by The Beatles and 'Cabaye My Lover' by James Blunt are better fits. They're too perfect to ever catch on though, our fans only know about four basic tunes

Definitely going to try Hull next year, if they give decent numbers.

Girard ticks a lot of boxes. There'll be no compensation and, because he's an old man looking to try another country, he'd ask for modest wages. He wont be in demand and Ligue 1 managers dont have high wages anyway. Plays nice football and has worked with some our players before. He can bring Belhanda with him! The only major issue is that he has no PL experience, like a lot of our squad. Montanier would be great though, just dunno if the club are aware of him.

We'll be all over that, some great names there. Sakho, de Vrij, Belhanda, Mulumbu, Weimann...

The Journal will then take the opposite view (as per usual) and then we're back to neutral. It's just guesswork right now.

We'll see. I still think he'll go. He has to.

If/when Pardew does go this summer, I don't think it'll be these comments or any other comments in particular. It'll be the influential players like Cabaye, who he's clearly lost. Cabaye is Ashley's favourite player and a big part of our recruitment, so all it takes is a quick word.

This Also, I was hoping there'd be a budding Villas-Boas or Rodgers in our lower leagues but none stand out. If there is one, I'd like them here.

Coutinho is amazing.

Laudrup knows his stuff. Europa shouldn't be an excuse.
