Can't see Noble leaving West Ham I personally wouldnt take him here, i wouldnt pay the money for him and we could get better, although he is one of the better relegated players

I'm sure i can remember seeing last summer that WBA were interested in him aswell If thats the case we should blow most of our budget on WBA scouting system http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_6320736,00.html

They'll want £10m+ for him. Liverpool are sniffing - apparently. I could maybe see Villa being interested aswell in him if Young goes

According to the crack on Facebook you can see the fire from Ashington I would confirm this but i can't get out the office to have a look

Course it does, simple as oot that man

Totally slipped my mind abound Hitzelsperger and Noble, but if anything if we do go for a CM i'd rather us go for someone who can play the defensive role and can come in when Tiote is suspended/injured, i think Diame from Wigan wouldnt be a bad shout for that role, still only young, looks an alright prospect and would only cost a couple to a few million if Wigan went down But our main priority this window is getting at least 2 strikers in and a winger, if we got Fletcher, Ba and one of Jarvis, Hoilett and Nzogbia i'd be well happy

Not time to change your user name and picture?????? Nah, we'll sign him again in the summer That i'm positive about Or if not i'll just keep it their for the novelty probably

Havent had a game of 5/7-a-side in a good few month, everyones always busy or no one wants to help is organise it, especially annoying when ive got a new pair of goalie mitts to tear shit up in, nayone will be able to find a way past is

Exactly

Those four would get into our 1st imo I wouldn't have Larsson either fwiw I only put Larsson in there because he's a free transfer at the end of the season, so he would be a good addition for nowt, i wouldnt take him though if we had to pay for him like While i think Adam is a damn good player, i wouldnt have him in ahead of Nolan or Tiote so i wouldn't see where he'd fit in, they bring so much to our team that i dont think we need a player who would get into alot of first teams in the top half of the table, on our bench, i just don't see who he'd replace N'Zogbia too i think is a quality player but as proven in his last stint here doesnt have the attitude that would help us and would merely want to fuck off whenever a whisper comes around that a 'bigger club' is interested, if he didnt have the attitude he has i'd have him straight back here Rodallega for me is to hitty-missy he sometimes looks as though he's got something and other times he looks twatful, we'd be best off looking somewhere else And I think Johnson is the better CB out of him and Dann, so i'd prefer to have him here than Dann, but if it did come down to it, there are better options elsewhere if we do indeed go looking for a CB

This weekend we'll see 2 teams getting relegated adding to West Hams already certain relegation, and of the teams that look like they could go down there seems to be quite a few decent players banding about who would become available for cheaper prices and in some cases improve our squad and there's quite a few who i wouldnt mind to see play for us. The players i think who we should at least look at signing are (depending really if they go down) Ba Fletcher Jarvis Larsson Samba Hoilett There are some other players but, either i dont think we need them or i wouldnt see them getting in the First Team or sign someone better are Foster, Johnson, Dann, Gardner, Green, Upson, Diame, McCarthy, N'Zogbia, Rodallega, P Robinson, Santa Cruz, Olsson, Doyle, Adam Just wondering whether you's think we should maybe try a few bids for some of the better players and if they'd help us push on or not?

That's what I heard. Thought it was confirmed too. Aye Leeds away has been confirmed, 31st of July

It'll probably have that end of season, nothing to play for feel about it, it'll not be a great spectacle and probably a 1-1 will come of it as WBA are certainly no pushovers

It'll be an easy win for Porto

I don't. I think he's a twat. IIRC Leazes thinks he'll be acting the twat sooner or later too. I'm sure others are concerned about his mercenary strerak. I've no doubt he will like but that'll be because a bigger club will probably come in for him Hopefully. I've not really understood the Ben Arfa spunkathon so far. He's appeared in 4 games and we lost 3 of them....and he's had a nasty injury. EDIT: I don't mean I hope to sell him ASAP. I mean hopefully he performs well enough to interest other teams. He fits into both sides of the pessimist / optimist argumental cycle on here though. For the former he's potentially a bright light amongst all the darkness and for the latter he's a symbol of how the club's new transfer policy is serving us well I agree he's done nowt like. I also reckon he views us as a stepping stone / route into the PL and nothing more. Thats the way i see him, i dont see him yet as an almighty player who is one of the top players in the division like others do, but i think we all know that he may have been if he'd have stayed fit and alot will hinge on whether he can live up to his high standards when he does return I also believe too that we are a stepping stone to him to bigger things at the moment, but i think if we do show ambition he would happily stay with us

Not just that incident. He refused to train in Germany to force his move to West Ham. Ben Arfa done that and everyone loves him here? I don't. I think he's a twat. IIRC Leazes thinks he'll be acting the twat sooner or later too. I'm sure others are concerned about his mercenary strerak. I've no doubt he will like but that'll be because a bigger club will probably come in for him and wont see us as progressing the way in which we really should be, and in that case i wouldnt blame him for acting a twat Edit: Long has never been prolific and this is his only season when hes actually scored a fair amount of goals, he even said at the start of the season that he set himself a 10 goal target, he'd be a woeful Premiership striker IMO

Not just that incident. He refused to train in Germany to force his move to West Ham. Ben Arfa done that and everyone loves him here? I'd definitely take Fletcher here, whenever he starts he seems to get goals and he did the same in a poorer Burnley side, so he's a definite improvement on Ameobi and anything else we've got, and Ba seems to pick up the goals too i'd take him here aswell

It's amazing how Graham Carr has suddenly became a miracle worker, I bet before Ben Arfa and Tiote were signed many people wouldnt have known that he was at the club or even heard of him

Surely Ashley wouldnt be so stupid to sell Tiote for £15 Million, Wilson friggin Palacios cost £16 million. With his stock being so high as it is at the moment and him being on a 6 year contract that has to push is price up to the mid twenties to thirty price range. Not that i'd welcome it like, we should be telling clubs to bugger off bidding on our players. I would think Gameiro's price would be as you's say nearer the £15 million mark, as they managed to get £10 million from Arsenal for Koscielny and Arsenal were the only club interested in him, and i think there'll be more than a few clubs sniffing round Gameiro too

Zurab Khizanishvili and his unremarkable spell for us at the start of last season

Who'll be the happier fans when Birmingham get relegated on Sunday, and Man U are giving a lap of honour with their 19th title? Eh Nick?

Fucking BAH! If this is our away strip, we have the mingingest combination of strips in Premier League history

Sears aint pushed on like he should have in these past couple years since he burst onto the scene, he's had a few stints at Championship clubs and done nowt, it'd be best to just leave him alone i reckon

Thing is though the players who are considered as potentially Premier League quality will already have been scouted by other clubs, so it'll be hard for us to get them to us without alerting other clubs to their availability, which will inevitably bump up their pricetags, so the likes of Gameiro, Sissoko, Matuidi will be being courted by other clubs
