Would drop Ritchie before Atsu. But I'd have Murphy and Aarons both in

Hope you he stays just to stuff it to the "I told you so" lot wanting their little victory tbh.

Oh wait I'm stupid. It'll clearly be Lee Clark's turn, he's been begging for a job here for years.

Pardew would probably get lucky humping it up to Mitrovic and Joselu tbh. He's probably do his usual start and keep us up. Exactly what Ashley would want.

The likelihood is the guy coming in will have worked for us before, so the "Give him a chance" won't apply.

Massive loss, Rafa will just be going through the motions.

Be a massive win when we're free of Ashley because our Clubs been liquidated like. Would love that. I'm being sarcastic, by the way.

Just hope they encourage him to run at people. remember watching Sanchez there and he looked scared to attack his man.

Anyway, like I said. Its a "we tried" move. Its not meant to work.

He's only 30. He can't be finished unless he's secretly Michael Owen

Twitter reckons he's off to Bristol City because of their kitman

Its also clearly the fake "we tried" move.

Swansea would have to outright buy him because of Abraham. Wonder what reaction he'd get here if he came back.

No way will Atsu Murphy and Aarons ever all start together.

The criticism of him is very fair. His defensive ability is mostly overrated. He's good at 1 on 1 but awful with the ball aimed over his head. Watching him try to turn is dreadful.

Followed Luuk De Jong really well.

Bye bye, Rivs.

Can we lock this?

We're done man. No more incomings.

Wouldn't play Gayle. No way will he be right after being ill.

Assumed the worst with this being bumped like.

Reckon we're probably closed for business now

No chance.

Not convinced some of these names are real.

Think the issue is we'll never know if someone wants it as Ashley has never been serious about selling. Pretending to invite offers whilst asking a price that is prohibitive is what he's done. Why would he want to sell when he's got it so easy here? I'm still struggling to see what we do. The man is immune to our pressure, he's proven that before. He pretty much ignores it. We're stuck in a pit we can never get out of.
