Didn't tie him to a six-year deal, amateurs.

Guess they could call him up for the African Nations... Oh.

Won't happen in the January window anyway considering that they have a FFP restriction on buying players and Pogba would only go for big money.

That was my first thought as well. Has he now declared himself for Nigeria instead of England like? Yes, at the start of this season. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/28674516

Andy Carroll can become top scorer.

The holes in the key areas (CB, CM, ST) are resolved with the emergence of Dummett, Abeid, Ayoze, and the form of Sissoko plus a hint of that in Cisse. Add in the new signings in de Jong and Ferreyao, I reckon January is going to be a quiet month for us.

Could we even register any new goalie considering we submitted a full 25-man squad list.

Hard to do better for what's likely a one-month emergency loan.

Tbf he did say Rob Lee minus the goals so that's not quite the stick to beat him with.

From 2nd in the first GW to 111th. What happened?

Neither Saylor nor Willo are good enough. They will play well for a run of games, then fall into mediocrity. What you say about Saylor would well apply to Willo a few months later, and vice versa.

Great pic.

NE journalist of the year.

No value in that. We still have Woodman, Junior and Woodman, Fat.

5 players out for next GW, possibly more after tomorrow's games.

Most people would have captained either Costa or Aguero so it all evens out. Next week is a massive headache though, with all those suspensions and injuries.

Was thinking Aguero would get injured/stop scoring soon so held against transferring him in. Finally brings him in this week at a cost of 4 points and he lasts a long 2 mins and gets what looks like a bad injury.

It's real. Was leaked back in October.

2011/12 - one goal every 86 mins 2012/13 - one goal every 375 mins 2013/14 - one goal every 691 mins 2014/15 - one goal every 66 mins After two years of absolute crap, his scoring rate is actually better than his first 6 months.

Level on points with Arsenal.

So many upsets and goalless draws.

That's suspensions for Fabregas, Chambers, Sissoko and Austin. Anyone else I missed out?

Ouch.
