Parker is totally pointless.

Mark Douglas ‏@MsiDouglas Bits & pieces for tomorrow... #nufc have opened negotiations for a highly-rated defender. Find out which one in #thejournal

nowt we didn't have an inkling of. interesting final line in that piece as it says that he will have no say in where he goes. Bizzarre. I saw that too. Surely he can't be forced to sign for somebody?

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-striker-demba-ba-is-available-854648 Doesn't sound great. At least if someone does fancy him it gives us plenty of time.

I'm sorry. I'm tired.

So if Mexes and Ribery are sure starters, that leaves Hatem on the bench?

Mexes? So he is competing with Ribery?

Should be a decent test, hoping to see more of Ben Arfa and Cabaye Seven changes are expected , from the game against Iceland. Cabaye is starting tomorrow (Nasri, Benzema, Mexes are the others "survivors") Ben Arfa is on the bench. Does that tell us more about the role he will play at the Euro's, or is Blanc just experimenting?

I find it odd that as Liverpool go for Rodgers, Villa go for the better manager in Lambert.

Not sure how we replace him in regards to what type of player we go after. Lets just hope it doesn't come to that.

He couldn't get in the Wigan team at the end of the year. Because they were pure quality Maybe it's because he wasn't involved.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-are-tracking-papiss-cisse-853261 Nothing much tbh.

He couldn't get in the Wigan team at the end of the year.

Not convinced. Don't think he is anywhere near as good as he is made out to be. Next season will be make or break with him at Manure.

Put that with what Douglas said, we've been offered Mbiwa.

Has Prandelli removed Criscito from his squad due to the match fixing allegations? Would mean they could do with another LB.

I am saying, contrary to what you suggested, that a players physical attributes are not a vital requirement in order to be a success in the premier league.

Better tell David Silva the bad news then.

With Ribery to come in, i'm not sure. We'll see. dont really see him as being in competition with ribery for the right sided spot. Its more Menez tbh. I would give Nasri the boot personally. Maybe shift Hatem inside.

With Ribery to come in, i'm not sure. We'll see.

He's going to have a brilliant Euro's isn't he.

Not sure. He'll be there though.

Did well. Just wonder if they continue with 4-3-3 will he get in the starting XI ahead of Ribery and Menez?

Thought Menez has done well. Complete t*** mind.
