how can they justify spending more on Bale that fucking Ronaldo who was world player of the year at the time (iirc?), complete lunacy and Levy's making off like a bandit once more

Blanc really does want Cabaye, possible. pity Blanc doesn't have much in a say in the matter

on Today FM for anyone else in Ireland

Stan Kronke and The Glazers? (rather more literally in the latter case as they're getting the club to payoff the cash they used to buy it)

next

I know this is too much to expect from these incompetent morons. But if Cabaye goes we are going to need Gomis, Gourcuff and Sinclair and Ince. Fyp fyfyp

£££, spotlight in the prem, we'd sell when big enough bid comes in

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri 1m Chelsea have been contacted by Roma for Demba Ba

Shame that Lille have said they won't sell to Marseille under any circumstances. well thats awkward. Not sure we should be in for him anyway, to want to leave a club before you've even played for them is not a good character reference

logically

That Pardew picture.. http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02648/alanpardew_getty_2648854b.jpg that will do as a new avatar

Oh great, trying to sign another frenchy he can't motivate. or more than likely just taking in a match as he's in the area to bow and scrape to the almighty bloodsuckers agents of Cabaye or its made up bullshit

This how i picture Ronnie <a href="http://reactiongifs.com/?p=12918"><img src="http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/idiots.gif"></a> ok I demand that be Ronaldo's avatar from now until the end of time

probably not

What's wrong with Gouffran? i thought he played all right until we took him off. At least he can link play. has good movement and not be pushed off the ball with the slightest bit of contact I've yet to see him actually do anything out on the wing, he needs to be played up front or not at all, quite frankly I'd almost prefer if we said screw you to most of these players and just went with some of the younger players and see if they're good enough or not. Give Bigi, Vuckic Dummett Sammy or anyone who shows something resembling talent, they'll at least try You're doing this in every thread now, so I've got to ask. Who isn't trying? With the exception of Debuchy who's conduct has been very erratic since he came I'm struggling to think of anyone I can criticise for not putting the effort in. the last few matchs (over a few month period mind) but we've seen the players stop trying when something goes wrong, the sunderland match either man city match the liverpool match a combined total from 4 match's of 17 goals conceded 0 scored and abject surrenders all around. They all just stop trying once we go behind and its getting beyond a joke Right, so 'all of them'? with a few exceptions yes, the only ones I could honestly say were doing all they could in those matchs was Krul/Elliott So, we're talking about a team made up of players who are all under performing, all look like they don't care, all look like they're not putting the effort in. Who's fault is it, primarily? I'd share blame equally with the manager and the players, whatever else surely professional pride should get them to show something anything

right ratings now that I've calmed down a little Krul 10, wayward kicking aside he did everything he could Debuchy 0- abject performance Colo 5- made some effort at least Taylor 0- Utter moron Mbwia 5- needs to watch his temper, clash with Dzeko was needless and did ok at cb Jonas 6- made more of an effort than most others on the pitch Tiote 4- still looks shite Sissoko 4-was he even out there? HBA 6- best offensive option which doesn't say much Gouffran 5 barely noticed him Cisse 4- no service but his touch was non existant and attempts to hold up the ball was ridiculously bad Anita-5 dispossessed far too easily Dummet 7-the one bright spot of the night Sameobi 5- few decent runs but to almost no effect

I'm having fun picturing it being JFK with mafia hitmen around him or something like that

its not hard to imagine his agent after having told him about the Arsenal offer (and how much of a payrise he'd get) that he'd be less than pleased over it being rejected and may have verbally said as much

tbh I couldn't give 2 shits about formation, way too overblown. 442 worked out well enough for City last night

when has he displayed half a f*** what anyone thinks of him? Would that be at the sacking of a popular manager or the renaming of the ground? He will only go once he has his price and not a moment sooner regardless of how long it is before someone displays even interest in buying the club My point isn't that he'd care. I just don't think he likes owning our club. no probably not but its not going to get rid of him any faster

Of course. Cabaye's agents would row here on a dinghy to get their cut when he moves, we hardly need to go cap in hand to them. Although knowing our lot I can understand why some might think we would. I hope you are right (Of course ) but I think alternatively we'd row on a makeshift raft made from Sports Direct bags glue together with Mike's spunk to get a deal sorted if its over £20m and from a French club. Didn't Ashley fly Carroll to Liverpool in his own helicopter, or am I making that up? just taking the old phrase of I'd drive him there myself for that price to the next logical level
