Gamez, Lazaar, Diame, Sels. Flawless track record like

£13m in this market is for all intents peanuts. if there's any merit to the rumour I'd happily have him here

We need a striker more than anything else, Gayle goes down we're fucked

The only 10 on the books is De Jong. Anyone else would be square pegs round holes, unless of course they bring Ben arfa home

Yeah, I think we've punched above our weight here. Nice to see. He's a Spanish U-21 who's done the grand sum of f*** all in his career, we haven't fallen off that bad Christ! Give the guy a chance, he's only just turned 21. He's won Under 21 caps for Spain and secured a move to a club the size of Dortmund. That's not f*** all for a young player. This lad could easily turn out to be our best player. I don't disagree with any of that but similarly we aren't punching above our weight, that's been my only point of contention.

You beat Athletic for his signing though, who were willing to pay the fee upfront. That's gotta count for something. That's a fair comment, still wouldn't say we're punching above our weight, sign Bale however...

Don't think this transfer's gonna athen

Think youre the only person to think that like Might need to take myself down Specsavers perhaps

Tiote (RIP) & Cabaye were a phenomenal tandem. Especially that 1st season together...

Wow, just saw the new kit. Ugly as shit

Started great, post New Year it's been torture but we secured promotion. Voted 4 but more of a 3.5 season.

hate posts like this So you think Rafa will stay if he's given only £20 million to spend? [emoji38] [emoji38] I think there's more to it than than that. He might accept a structured build up of funds given the impact of relegation etc. You've no f***ing idea. Whhhhoooohhhhhhhhhhh, settle down darling! I didn’t state that I had an idea but in my opinion, I’ll be very surprised if he will be happy to accept a budget of £20 million to work with looking at the state of our current squad next season. Only Stoke and Hull spent LESS than that figure last summer. This repeated £20m figure of yours is pie in the sky and only serves to upset yourself. You've created a scenario doomed for failure and run with it. mojorinsin is suggesting you sit on your hands and not get carried away with hypotheticals.

Suppose it's a 10 now

Saw that coming a mile away

5 mins, christ

This is tough to watch, Pardew era stuff

Well done comparing chalk and cheese. Brilliantly done. Thanks pal

100% with you

MF not the most balanced even with 4-3-3 but hard to leave anyone on this list out.

His achievement was remarkable, I love the guy. But... there was no real pressure on him and he did have a core group of players that were very strong mentally. We lack leaders for example at current. Nolan would walk into our team btw, an underrated player for us in many ways and a great Captain. Half that team would walk into our current team IMO. I'd certainly have a good few of them ahead of the current crop. Also, transfer fees have changed massively since then. The going rate for a top Championship player today is 10m plus and the average Prem player 15m. Ritchie for example. Although I hink he is above average. If you are using points as a barometer btw then Hughton is better than KK? Definitely not, wasn't trying to use the points tally as a barometer but perhaps illustrate how well Hughton did and unappreciated he was for his efforts if we're saying Rafa's deserves more credit for this season (which he definitely does). It wasn't all roses in Hughton's era, the club was in real shambles.... as it has been for most of life

Hughton did all of the above while breaking 100pts with a tubby Nolan upfront, just saying
