Hair bear scores.

If he meant that, that header is utterly superb.

We've certainly got nowt to fear from Croatia if we do meet them on that showing, if we can get past who we play.

Gonna be nice to see him line up for West Ham Fulham, or warm Spurs bench.

FYP. Fair point

If you could hand pick a easier route to the final then England now have it Watch us fuck it up.

The West Brom players demonstrably hated Pardew. I said most not all, luckily for football clubs from now on West Brom and their players should have finished him in management for good.

Brazilian like.

Thing is most players and the media don't see or want to see what Pardew is, players in general like him. It's the same with Fat Sam, backwards football just more effective than Pardew's, but as i said most players seem to like playing for them.

Long shot i know but maybe the reason we aren't buying Townsend before selling Ritchie, is because it's an either or. If i lose my senses for a mo, it could be that Rafa does have a bit to spend but isn't in a rush to sell Ritchie, so will only do so if it means Townsend comes in. Haha what am i thinking

Aye, it's ridiculous it hasn't been.

To put things in perspective, a young lad from Sheffield United was bought for £12m today by Bournemouth, prices are mental. £15 to £20m really is rapidly becoming the average going price nowadays.

Believable until Rafa signs and then Ashley lets him down....it's not like we haven't seen it before, unfortunately. How about Ashley buys the players so Rafa can trust him, and sign the deal after seeing his plans being put in place.

Might be just me but i don't think there's a cat in hells chance we'll pay £18m, no way Mike pays more than we previously bought and then sold him for, unless they accept around £12m we can forget it.

SSN saying talks are going on, breaking news now. Guess what ? no bid made... getaway

Doing just simple stripes make the shirt look great, despite it being shitty Puma.

Ki is 29. On Diame, as good as he was.. who knows which form of him turns up in pre-season He was class for West Ham one season then shipped off to Hull the next. s**** or Hull first season then amazing the next I don’t think any ever used him as a ball winning defensive midfielder though. He was seen as an attacking midfielder which he’s done well although inconsistently. Think Rafa realised this or maybe just lucked into it.. He doesn’t need the same sort of pace as he used before. Just little bursts of power, disrupt and move the ball on.. that he can do. Maybe they’ll bring on Ki for him after 70 mins. If games are going well. Protect his legs etc. We need some young legs in attack too. Townsend must be about 30 at this stage so this rumoured switch between him and selling on Ritchie sounds like a temporary fix. I quite like Ritchie actually, would prefer if we kept him. And does that mean Hayden keeps his place. Has he done enough to stay? He's 26 i think

Reckon that's CM's sorted unless we sign Sturaro, Shelvey, Ki, Hayden and Diame are the four for the two positions.

He's perfect for a club who are geared up for standing still and spending fuck all.

racist I noticed that as well

The attempts to break our transfer record are going well

'lets have it you full kit wankers'

Oh stop it hahahahaahaha my sides hurt :lol:

The worry is and has been for yonks now is that we actively avoid buying, which in this day and age is a ludicrous thing to do, spending the bare minimum means you just about standstill. Doing that when you have a manager like Rafa is even more mental.
