Good thing he said 'squad member'

Absolutely deserved Hopefully he gets the LMA one too, it would be silly if Mancini gets it.

Still some cracking bosmans this summer (Hoilett, Clyne, Barnetta, Amalfitano, Diame etc). Get a couple of money players and then strengthen our depth with a few of those.

Unsure whether to bring Tevez in for Rooney. Or who to make captain, as the push for the top 5 continues. Howard Rafael Kompany Kaboul Valencia Van der Vaart Pienaar Moses P Cisse Rooney Van Persie

Y'see I look at a visit to a good Everton side as a loss or possible draw, but this season has proved that we win some strange games. We know we simply have to win and I think that makes us more likely to. No games seem impossible anymore.

Haven't seen that vid before, but in a matter of seconds it went from a small flame to an overwhelming blaze. Tragic

Feel so smug when other teams seem to love him and we know the truth

I kinda like that Man United kit. Can't wait for Tiote to make it invisible next season.

Oh my god, it's just sinking in. On Sunday we could be 'Newcastle United: Champions League team'. Even my dreams don't go this far.

£2.5 - 3m, surely.

Damien Comolli has just been on talksport, mostly about the 'Moneyball' concept. Quite interesting.

£4m for Best is a bit optimistic, although media hype means we can probably get £4-5m for Simpson.

What's ridiculous is that you know Mancini will get it if they beat QPR. Even though Pardew has achieved far, far more in proportion.

he deleted his account? poor lad

Homage

Surprised that people thought Atletico were comfortable - I thought Athletic dominated that match. 3-0 was really harsh, but ah well.

Seriously considering putting that as my desktop.

Needs a thread title change So, so happy for him. Playing for his country means a lot more to Hatem than for most other players and the French will be ecstatic at this. Can't wait to cheer him on (if he makes the 23).

Awesome!

That goal difference is getting overhauled.

I'll be cheering Athletic on, again.

Those prices were a little bit low, weren't they?
