Cisse is a Poacher pure and simple. If he doesn't get the service he'll look awful.

Well we don't get tight and we don't press. Pardew is a shocking manager.

Gulf in managers is what's telling IMO

We aren't even capable of that anymore lol

If he wants to go and that's a big if then we need to take the stance of the other clubs this season. Dump him in the reserves and make it clear he wont be sold for a penny less than a over inflated asking price.

It's impossible to compete with their squad is what he said.

So Pardew left him out then?

Neville talking shit about the agent fee's btw. 1. Man City £10,537,982 46,513 2. Liverpool £8,600,444 43,910 3. QPR £6,818,688 17,602 4. Tottenham £6,595,905 36,029 5. Chelsea £6,490,382 41,059 6.

The offer isn't high enough and while we pay his wages he should play. He's probably given the usual, my mind not on it s***. If so he's a w*****. I've no problem with him going but it's not asking a lot for him to be professional. Don't get me wrong, He should be starting this game without a doubt. Pardew is spinless however he should be told to focus and if he lets the side down he gets fined it's as simple as that.

I Won't blame Cabaye for leaving if he does. Why would any player in their right mind want to play for us? Our sole ambition is to line the owners pockets.

Sadly this isn't possible.

Come on. French international midfielder, peak of his career, one of our most important players, loads left on his contract, late in the window, Arsenal desperate. We'd be absolutely mad to sell for £10m. Exactly. I'm not sure why some on here are so keen to see him sold for cheap. Would you prefer to see Gosling starting every game?

This guy's written a poem. Bows

Why would we sell? Considering the market we should be demanding at least 30million for him. Not because that's what he's worth but because we can. Arsenal are flush with cash, We haven't spent a penny. Wenger is under pressure already too. We can let it become the Carroll Situation again, this bid strikes me as a panic bid at any rate.

Would you be satisfied with a top 10 finish with awful football out of interest?

Goal and a assist. 30 million looks like a bargain, I wonder why Man United weren't in for him. they don't appear to be actually going for anyone, at least not realistic attempts. Fabregas wasn't going to leave Barca yet, and their attempt at Baines Moyes of all people surely knew that low a stating bid would be laughed away As good as Baines is I don't think he'd be a good buy on the basis i feel Evra still has a couple more good years in him. It seems like Man U have missed out on their primary targets i just fear a bid for a Cabaye from them.

Old typing habits die hard.

Just read on Times football site, they've spent £70m in 2 seasons with next to nothing going out. plus the wages to match that spend, good to see financial fair play is working......... FFP is stupid anyways. All it does is maintain the status quo. Unless you are lucky enough to get a crop of players like Fergie had (Beckham, Scholes etc) You have no chance of progressing. while the current status quo has some club hitting the jackpot because some random sheikh or russian oligarch got bored and suddenly go from non entity to european powerhouse. FFP has problems the most glaring of which is the champions league cash but its better than the current system I couldn't disagree more. Although it benefits people like Ashley who can now use the guise of "FFP" to mask a lack of investment in the club.

I thought I had seen him out wide for Roma last season, but I guess it was Totti who'd been swung-out more often than not. Didn't get much chance to see Roma last season but I'd say your right. I doubt Totti would be pushed out wide unless their manager was stupid.

As Ryan said, Blanc is the weak link for them IMO.

Are they looking as un-balanced as they did last week? They had no width at all last weekend.

TBF to them he's a Belgian international these days so they'll probably profit on him, not that he'll get a game for them. Osvaldo could be a fantastic signing, wonder if they'll rotate him and Lambert? Osvaldo > Lambert = Lambert warms the bench. 4-3-3 chaos Wanyama Schneiderlin Ramirez Osvaldo Lallana Lambert Half-joking. Pretty sure he played out wide at times for Espanyol. Either way he'd do a better job out wide than Cisse is capable of. Southampton haven't half thrown some money around. By being so frugal we are actually going backwards, Looking at other teams around us only emphasises that.

I can't remember anybody saying that wages were our only expense. You may not have noticed but we managed to pay Ashley £11 million in our last set of accounts. Also the amount of free Advertising he's had for Sports direct. How much would that commercial arrangement cost (I'm working on the assumption we had a half decent commercial team)
