Tiote has regressed but we'd still get over £10m+ for him, easily.
I just cant believe that we've attracted Debuchy, Mbiwa and Sissoko. Its outrageous when you think about it. And for those prices? We're taking the piss.
So this one sounds like a goer. Our midfield options are going to be crazy - Sissoko, Cabaye, Anita, Tiote, Marveaux, Perch, Gutierrez.
Maybe we can afford to loan out Bigi or Abeid.
Starting to think these personal reasons are a load of bollocks and that's very disappinting. Colo, a man who has been the ultimate professional, suddenly wants to leave a club he 'loves' to effectively end his career? San Lorenzo will still be there in 2 or 3 years. I don't get why he'd want to move and I don't get why now. To say it would leave a sour taste would be an understatement. What sort of captain abandons his team in a crisis? I hope the truth comes out because I don't want to think ill of Colo
Even if Pardew is still here?
In spite of Pardew, yeah. I just couldnt imagine it getting any worse than this. We have some exceptional players, a list which keeps growing.
Tell you what, though we're not able to properly celebrate these signings whilse we're in trouble, if we survive I'll be so optimistic for next season.
