Can see us muddling through with what we've got then going for him on a free next summer.

When a foul is given and the commentator/pundit says "there was definite contact there". It's a contact sport. Contact alone isn't enough to be a foul.

Erm. Isn't it the other way around? I always hear that term or 'camera save' when the keeper has tucked their legs up and fail to land on their feet, when they clearly could have done. Or they parry a shot, that they could easily catch.

A concerted push for a top 8 spot and a damn good go at the cups. Probably 4 or 5 signings away from a squad that should be challenging for a top 6 spot (LB, CB, CM, Striker, RB cover...).

Wanyama

Neither Mertesaker nor Koscielny trained today

Florrie? Aye, that's what he called himself in his vid.

We've got Florrie Florrie Florrie Florrie Thauvin on the wing, on the wing.

I'd go: Krul Janmaat Mbemba Coloccini Haidara Anita Wijnaldum Thauvin de Jong Perez Mitrovic I think SMc will go: Krul Janmaat Mbemba Coloccini Haidara Anita Colback Sissoko Wijnaldum Thauvin Mitrovic

Sissoko isn't better, like. Nowhere near.

I reckon it'll be along the lines of: Darlow Janmaat Williamson Coloccini Haidara Tiote Vuckic Thauvin De Jong Aarons Cisse

I couldn't care less if we pay over the odds by a couple of million. We're getting tens of millions a year more from TV etc that it's not really an issue. If it's true that there's some potential deep down in this nutter that he could be a star, then get him in and let's enjoy him for the time before it goes tits up or he gets flogged.

Still maintain we have no idea how far down Carr's list the powers that be actually go. Who's to say that some of these failures weren't 10th choice because the club wouldn't fund the nine higher-rated ones?

Toe-van i think Yup.

Tomato Tomata.

Haven't they just signed Poulsen too?

Off to West Brom apparently.

Nah. ? Aye that was me. Ryder printed it that afternoon. 10.3m euros according to De Telegraaf

I'd say it's a pretty big issue as it will set the tone for the style of play we expect to use this season. I'll be delighted if we go with Anita and Wijnaldum in the centre but I fear we won't.

Simon Smith confirmed.

Manchester to Bournemouth flights only 70 return atm

I imagine it'll be the same size wise as our 09-10 home kit

Purchased.

When have you ever seen a successful diamond formation in the premiership? It's the stuff of fantasy. We've struggled to get a 433/451 system to work. The only real success we have ever had is with 442. I saw it with a midfield which included Michael Owen, Nicky Butt, Geremi and Joey Barton.
