Why drop a man on the line from there? Just going to get in the keepers way. Fucks sake.

GET THE FUCK IN!

Gan on Haris lad!

Where's this from? Can't imagine us going for him, nor would I want us to.

My word, young man.

That's a class finish from Graham, that.

There are certainly better options than him for us. Especially as we'd be even more likely to play more long balls with him in the team, rather than keeping the ball on the floor like we should be.

Maiga will be going to the ACoN anyway won't he, so whether we signed him or not we'd be left with those two for a short period? We are definitely in need of another striker though, hopefully De Jong.

Nothing saved me

He's got a better goals to games ratio than Carroll had for us last season as well. I'd say about £60mil is a fair price.

Agreed with this assessment. Seeing as we're looking for somebody to partner Colo, I'd go for a Douglas type. As I've said before though, I think he will want to finish the season in Holland so he can get permission to play for the Dutch national team (he has a Dutch passport but needs to have played in NL for 5 years, which he will have in August next year). I believe the Dutch FA have asked special dispensation (not sure on what grounds) to have him available earlier. If they pull that off, and he can be selected for the Euros, I can see him wanting to move this January, but all in all I'd say unlikely. Pretty much how I see it really. I viewed him as a more realistic target than Vertonghen as well, wasn't aware he needed to finish this season to be eligible for Holland though.

I imagine it would depend on the players agent or if the player wanted to push a deal through. I can't see it happening in this case, thankfully.

Hope you enjoy it, and get to see a win.

Downing's got no assists? Thought he had a couple for them.

I think Liverpool will edge it, I can see us approaching the game with a fairly attacking mentality which is when Liverpool normally do alright. They're just shite at breaking down teams that set up defensively.

Was a Dutch journo on Talksport the other day who seemed to think Vertonghen was nailed on for Man U. and Teixeira was more likely for us. .....De Jong would be awesome like. Had no idea about that Vertonghen to Man Utd link but just thought he'd be off to a bigger club if he were to leave Ajax, I've mentioned a few times that I think Douglas would be a really good signing for us. As you say, if we were to get De Jong that'd be awesome.

Best signing in the PL this season. Really has been incredible for us.

Took his goal really well.

Good to get back to winning ways against a really poor Bolton side.

Ba Well played from Obertan there anarl.

Lovely finish that.

Rhodes scores yet again for Huddersfield.

I've got a treble on Rotherham, Southend and us. Immediately regretted it after clicking confirm.
