I`m wondering if Jose now has a thing against signing Belgians..we seem to sign nationalities in waves it seems at times and the number of Belgians coming seems to have dried up. should certainly atleast see what they want for him. now that the big clubs on the mainland can`t buy any more till the next window, a cheeky bid might pay off.

I think people are following me all the time..usually after a smoke when I pop out for munchies..perhaps they want to sign meeee..

raid the fuck out of Europe now the big clubs on the mainland can`t do fuck all about it..

Man U sent the paperwork in at 12:01 apparently..haha

funny bout De Gea..they had all summer to get a deal done and now they appear to be stuck with Navas. whilst Man U get stuck with a keeper whose head is shot and his heart elsewhere. wouldn`t be surprised if a loophole will be found for the clubs who get special treatment but until then I`ll laugh..

our season rests on if Bran continues to play at RB. The rest of the under performing I have faith in will return to form sooner than later.

hope it`s more than they can afford. option to buy should only be with players we tried to sell first before the loan. players we no longer want.

prefer Eva..

I`m thinking Jose`s logic is too many goals are coming from crosses so we need taller Center backs..instead of dropping the RB who is allowing LW`s to cross whenever they feel like. the problem with people that are highly intelligent is they often lack common sense.

atleast I`ve heared of him before. had a decent year at Roma I hear.

Leboeuf,Azpi,Essien,Malouda,Drogba,Gallas,Cech..all great at some point,some longer than others..also some young players who either haven`t panned out yet or are elsewhere now. Laurent Charvet the last player signed from Nantes by us if I recall correctly.. wasn`t the best but adequate depth at times. edit: no he was from Cannes.

so his head being turned is not the reason for him playing shit lately.

americans see the 1.12. as the 12th of January. british see 1.12 as the 1st of December.. I don`t know what it is in the rest of the world but might explain some confusion. either way he`s probably not gonna be with us by the time he turns 30.but atleast give him a chance. sky are reporting he was in the last year of his contract so the price was reduced.

seems like Jose miscalculated two things..that Bran could remain a reliable RB and that we would get Stones which made him feel like we should loan players like Kalas out because he wouldn`t be needed. now we are signing someone as a stop gap for CB that we wouldn`t have needed to sign if that miscalculation hadn`t occurred but as yet only have one fullback we can rely on and another who we have yet to see but optimistic that he both turns out good and doesn`t get injured. I hope we sign a fullback before the window shuts or we will be back where we have been so far with only one reliable fullback.if Baba doesn`t pan out or gets injured,and even worse if Azpi does. we should give Papy a chance. transfer fee does not make him a failure or a big transfer fee a success. it just is not even if he pans out a cure to all our back 4 woes.

both Oscar and Willian are players I like.both play out of position to where they should play,both are mismanaged,both put in a team first shift when fit and able. only comparisions I see in the players. they aren`t why we have started so poorly..if we have to pick two that is on Bran and Cesc,but others are playing below par too together with Jose taking off and dropping the wrong players and using the wrong formation.

I'm not knocking the player,my first comment in this thread is this one.but who is the youth player people are calling for? Kalas is somebody i've been calling for who was in the past classed as our youth but is 6 years since he first played a pro game.whose 22 now. Played well when given a chance with us and unlike seemingly Papy,can fill our biggest problem spot,RB. I'm neutral with this signing as a CB depth player,see how he goes when he plays but atleast no major fee so not a financial risk,just a performance one. i still see us needing two new signings tho if Kalas remains on loan where as if he had stayed or we got him back somehow this signing would not have been needed. We need another fullback and a midfielder.

Well Technically that was Welsh same as SuperTed..didn't you pick up the accents?

we saw Roger Ramjet the old American anti-communist propaganda cartoon over here..it wasn`t so good but more sad how even childrens cartoons were part of the paranoia. watching Pingu on acid is about the best kids tv show ever..or Monkey (from Japan)

he`ll never get a proper nights sleep in Napoli..i love the place but those lil cunts and their horns.. damn,what their coach said don`t sound promising..

The wealthiest teams would just buy players if they had an injury on the run in then..and destroy the competition. Even clubs like us.we could have a big run in and Barcelona start making offers for Eden.the media would love making up transfer rumours 12 months a year. In theory as we as normal working people we can leave whenever we want it may seen odd,but the fact that some footballers who are offered 50k a week can still be refused a work permit shows that football and normal careers don't go by the same rules.

I don`t think we should have a winter window. so just the summer one. every team should work on their academy and use that if they have too.same for everyone. or if they have a winter window,just open for loans.

some cheap cunts when it comes to our players leaving..so and so club are interested in so and so player..Juventus,West Ham,Everton,AC Milan,Napoli etc..time to get money,no,oh it`s only a loan. we want one of their players..starting bid gotta be 20m...

even if Boro paid a fee for him I would atleast offer them the money back and free salary paid by us loans back to them of other players to get Kalas back. he is exactly what we need at this point..a RB with pace who can defend and also play CB.

signed for the enemy now so for the first time since he left I care what he does. never wish any player has a serious injury (well unless they are a dirty leg breaker,then it`s not so bad) but never wish a player for a rival club has success either.

the price+the incredible tax fee +salary negotiations makes me think this is not a deal that could be done with so little time,even tho the buy out clause is better than haggling with a team who has a player without one. i think we are looking at more of a stop gap/cheaper option with the idea of going back in for Stones at a later date. buying Laporte would almost certainly count out going back in for stones in the near future unless we are planning on playing a back 3 ,due to us already having Zouma aswell as other highly regarded young defenders. if we as fans would be happy to have Laporte or not instead of Stones makes no difference. if the club thinks otherwise. i see some mention of us looking at Nicolas N`Koulo in the press today..
