Saw Moussa Sissoko walking up grey street yesterday, about 4pm, talking very loudly in French to some bloke in a suit.

This isn't Football Manager, those things happen without grand official announcements. Only if your crafty and tap players up, which is supposed to be illegal? I just don't believe we'd approach the player, who as recently as this morning was saying he'd not heard anything about it. P.S. I don't play football manager.

Wouldn't speak to us unless we'd agreed a fee anyway, which we haven't.

Perhaps Kinnear challenged Aulas to a drinking competition. Aulas is now sleeping in a shopping trolly.

Thing is Pardew has about as much of a scooby as we do man! They ain't going to let the lad leave for Ashley money. It's all pie in the sky.

I do find it hard to believe they're arguing over £1m - surely the difference in valuation has to be much greater than that!

Unless they don't really want him of course and purposefully put in low bids in the knowledge they'll be rejected. As Keegan said.

I really hope we at least push for an immediate repalcement; table another bid for Grenier or something. No doubt Ashley will trouser at least 10 mill of the £24mill and claim it went on agents fees, bog roll, rich tea biscuits etc.

Pards did say it was outside of the Cabaye situ, it probably would have happened anyway!

I'm sceptical of all these loan deals, if they end up like Remy; i.e. they score loads of goals and then went to fuck off and sign for a CL club. Say he comes in, does a Cissé for the rest of the season, his value skyrockets and we're left with nowt... again!!!

I rated him at Twente & was disappointed he didn't sign went he went to Gladbach, I still think he's a good player and hopefully he can recover his form with us.

OK cheers, might have to cancel, can't afford to have the money coming out the account. lol. You'd think they'd send a letter out beforehand like!!

Will they be taking direct debits on the 1st Feb anyone?

Aye Pardew on transfers: 'We hope to sign a player outside the Cabaye situation. We're a little bit closer with that.' Thing is we've heard it all before.

We won't sign a replacement, Kinnear is out of his depth regardless of what he says; I don't believe he has any contacts in the modern game, certainly not in France, and has the grace of a pissed up baby elephant when it comes to negotiating. Great timing just before two important fixtures, and what should have been 6 points.

Bring HBA into the side at RM, switch Sissoko into the middle would be the logical choice if we don't sign a replacement.

Aye, he knows this. Some part of me just doesn't trust Kinnear to negotiate/convice Cabella/his angry bosses or Grenier to join us within the forthcoming four days. Yeah I've got absolutely no faith in Kinnear's ability to convince a player. I think it's highly unlikely we'll get a replacement in this window. I actually miss Derek Llambias now!

Pardew: "we would need to bring someone in, that's for sure. You can't lose someone of his ability and not replace him." This is from George Caulkin btw.

"Pardew confirms interest in Cabaye. "Doing our best to protect N'cle." Departure would leave club "vulnerable." Expects him to play tmw."

Interesting comments from their fans. Cheers for sharing.

Mehdi Abeid scored for Panathinaikos again on his return from injury. He's been one of their better players this season. Scoring plenty goals from midfield.

Aye, with Yanga, which he's still clearly shitting nails over.

I'm actually not bothered about this lad anymore. Perhaps cutting my nose off to spite my face but who'd want to do business with a twat like Nicollin? No outgoings and De Jong in I'd be happy this window tbh.

He was always going to leave at some point. We can't offer him champions league, or the wages he'll get there. Can anyone really blame him or the club for accepting a bid in the region of 26m. I mean seriously? I'd love him to stay, and I will be gutted, but unless we are playing in the CL he was never going to stay beyond the summer. I still personally think he will still be here at the end of this window, but leave in the summer. I hope anyway.
