McLaren will cost Ashley £2 million.

Sunday Mirror reporting that Ashley will spend £60 million in the summer with Krul, Tiote and Colo amongst those leaving. Also that McLaren will take over as Head Coach.

Come in Number 24, your time is up.

I always thought Rooney was the first.

I only disagree with 2 points. Anita was atrocious and Jonas is probably not yet fit enough to start games.

Carver reporting on BBC and 2 Nationals that there will be a massive clear out in the close season and that Ashley is prepared to get the cheque book out.

Have you ever been on Gosforth High street? If you had you would know you need a minimum 120 db shout to make yourself heard.

Bit difficult. I was on the other side of the road.

Saw him walking along Gosforth High Street a couple of weeks ago in his tracksuit. Kept being stopped and was chatting to quite a few people.

Mbiwa (Roma) and Santon (Inter Milan) good enough to play in the last 16 of the Europa Cup but neither good enough to play for us. I wonder how Santon compares Roberto Mancini to Pardew and Carver?

It is often reported that Ashley will not pay big money for players. Since he took over in 2007, the following are examples of fees he has paid. Remy Cabella £12.0 million Colo £10.3 million Cisse £10.0 million Guttierez £ 7.0 million Anita £ 6.7 million Mbiwa £ 6.7 million Enrique £ 6.5 million Riviere £ 6.3 million Siem De Jong £ 6.0 million Alan Smith £ 6.0 million Joey Barton £ 5.8 million Debuchy £ 5.5 million Janmaaat £ 5.0 million Cabaye £ 5.0 million Whether most or some were worth the fees is debatable. In total he has paid out £149.6 million in transfer fees and received £166.95 million making him a net profit of £17.35 million.

Villa get into trouble, sack Lambert and appoint Sherwood - getting results. Sunderland get hammered in one game, sack Poyet and appoint Advocaat till end of the season. We end up with Carver, who could still take us down.

Our games against Sunderland, Leicester and QPR are 6 pointers. Unfortunately they are all away. Liverpool/Arsenal/Spurs are no brainers which just leaves Swansea, West Brom and West Ham, none of which will be that easy.

Is Carver brain dead or what? Subs are usually used when a player is injured or the coach wants to change the style of play. To have Cabella and Perez on the bench and start Riviere and Gouffran is a joke. If they are both not 100% fit then why have them on the bench. They both should have started and if Cabella could not last 90 minutes then he could have been subbed. At least they would have had a decent start. I am beginning to wonder about Colo and his motives. He must have realised the consequences of his sending off would have for the Arsenal game but he doesn't seem to care any more. Give the captaincy to Sissoko. Looks like Raylor at centre back with Anita at left back. Wenger now knows it will be the easiest 3 points they will pick up this season.

As for being able to play football it could be any one of them. If it is true then the medical staff should be sacked.

0-4 Villa. There will be no one left in the ground in the 2nd half.

They won't leave until they get paid in full.

So he will be off to Spurs in place of Soldado.

I can only presume you were looking in the mirror when you wrote that.

May I suggest you try a new calculator. Your abacus is slightly out of date.

What a load of s***e. If you had half a brain you would be dangerous.

Why are you suddenly so afraid to use the N word?

Have you noticed how football forums attract a number of cretinous sick bastards whose sole aim is to denigrate other people for no other reason than they find it funny.

For the umpteenth time you are wrong again. He was black BEFORE the fire. At least for once try and get your facts correct.

Wrong again. Get your facts right. I have a number of Muslim friends and neighbours. All I was trying to do was to show that spitting has different connotations to different races and you should not judge everyone by your own beliefs.
