Being modified several times as we speak.

Prob feeling rich from the Zaha money too.

'Gayle'

6m rising to a potential 8.5m apparently. Those clubs are really digging into the tv money to ensure survival.

Raising around 10m from the Shelvey sale and the Ince sell-on clause for their transfer funds.

Holidaying like. He comes back, it's Kinnear's turn.

Badge seems too low. He does.

I can imagine what the reaction will be if that happens, pro-Bent deal or otherwise. http://cdn0.meme.li/instances/300x300/39377933.jpg

4 managers chose not to play him so draw your own conclusions. Two of those being Kinnear and Pardew, right? You can imagine Xisco must have done something really naughty when Nile 'Gangsta' Ranger gets promoted to the 1st team ahead of him.

A Bent deal could go either way depending on factors discussed to death. A low fee of 3-4m and similarly lowish wages and I guess I can live with the chance of it not working to managerial expectations.

Haven't seen them around for some time. Poor guys probably want to forget last season as much as we do.

Inevitable.

Calm down. After all, it's only the 2nd day of the transfer window.

Ah, silly me. assume it was Kebab's twitter. There's some serious bromance between Yo and Ba. Bet Debuchy feels left out.

He can't be serious, he just can't be Matthias Sammer, Danny Blind, Johan Cruyff comes to mind. Pretty sure there are more out there. Sir Bobby had a similar role at Barca iirc.

Wait til he comes out with his 3 Ballon d'Or awards.

Guess what. He didn't manage Wimbledon for 10 years. Edit: Less than a year at Forest too.

“Every top club in the land has got one (DoF). We haven’t – that’s the difference. The manager can’t do everything." “I’m probably the only football manager to be a director of football." “I don’t know any other ex-managers who have. I’ve been a manager for 35 years. I’ve been Manager of the Year. I’ve won every award there is in football as a player." “I think all those qualities put me head and shoulders above every other director of football.” “Some directors of football have never played the game,” “I’m lending my experience as a manager for all those years - 10 years at Wimbledon, two years at Nottingham Forest, two years winning promotion at Luton and, of course, almost two years at Newcastle." “I would still be there had it (a heart attack) not occurred.”

Joe 'This is my last interview' Kinnear.

Only BigMoma and tbf that alone makes a strong case. Streete, Satka, Good are not ready to have any impact on the first team. I've never been impressed by Tavernier, and Ferguson will be better placed getting regular matches out on loan.
