He turned down PSG, signing for Sunderland and supported them since he was a child apparently. I can dream...

Di Maria, going nowhere

Darren Lewis reporting that Villa are in talks to sign Adebayor

Congerton link. Took him to Hamburg or something. I've never even heard of him tbh.

Aye, he'll be in here saying he was the next Beckenbauer until he picked up a thigh strain in August 2012 any second. Re Evans I wouldn't spit on the daft c*** if he was on fire personally, I've got morals and recognise my responsibility to be a role model to kids and that. What did he do like?

Put 20 quid on at 9/2 with SkyBet

I've fifty quid on with my Man Utd supporting mate that he is. What makes you say this?

I'd have him back at Sunderland in a heartbeat for that price. Best centre half I've seen play for us bar Bould.

"I'm proving that there still is loyalty in football" he says, with his 8m release clause. God, what a c***. Darren Bent Karma.... Not really. For a start, you didn't have to accept the huge amount of money we offered you for Bent, but you did. We had to accept it, as he had a release clause. Do that or keep a player who'd quite clearly had his head turned. That clause didn't have to be put in the contract but it was. Same scenario. Both will move/did move for money. Both will make/has made a pigs ear of what could have been a fantastic career.

Is he captain now?

"I'm proving that there still is loyalty in football" he says, with his 8m release clause. God, what a c***. Darren Bent Karma....

That's sickening. Delph to Man City's bench. Now an England regular, captain of a Premier League club. A club which has nursed him through serious injury and played him despite receiving stick. That's just disgusting.

I wouldn't count on it. Saying that Leicester probably have better players to fit his system than we did. Vardy, Schlupp, Mahrez, Albrighton... Dat pace on the counter

He's a good player, worth what they'll be paying I'm not too sure. He could either play as part of the two in a 4-2-3-1 and do his usual snidey yet effective bit of fouling and getting away with it and the dictating things from deep. (His best position imo) Or Pardew plays him as a no. 10. Where he's effective but it means he drops Puncheon who's a twat and this causes problems leading to relegation. After posting on here for a few years now I almost want this to happen now...... All this said he's close as he can be to Debuchy if this goes through. Probably his main aim.

Seen that some bloke in the American 3rd tier is now odds on to be Leicester's new manager. Bit of a come down from Klopp....

I'm guessing it's due to the Sky TV deal(s) To be honest the fact we have to stop relegation every season, coupled with that we're in an unattractive part of the country means we go one of two ways when signing players. a) We sign young, hungry players who see us as a stepping stone and replace them with proper planning in place OR b) we rely on loans and those on their last legs or not wanted by anyone else. Brown, O'Shea etc. It's the way it is now. No one will ever get close to the elite

It's a myth that Colback is hated for anything other than his ability by Newcastle fans. It's similar to how everyone believes we hated Bruce for his 'Geordie roots'. It wasn't, it was because he was shite'

Jack Colback: Ginger Piss Biscuit

Yep, I thought the same about Kramaric but he's looked alright when I've seen him

Where does he play? Off the front? Out wide?

Spurs will go after Benteke if they sell Kane. And probably get the best end of the deal. He's a good player and a grafter. If he goes to Man United it'll be interesting to see if he's willing to work hard after the inevitable massive contract.

What they usually do. Hang around til about December when someone is in the shit and come in and keep them up.

Safe? No. Didn't get rid when we did and we were down. Bruce's winless runs are akin to Pardew. See Hull this season.

I'm underwhelmed by this. Much prefer him to some of the other names linked though

Yep, what he said
