When would Dyer's contract have run out, 2009? That's more than £8m off the wage bill then...

His wages could well be even bigger. Wouldn't be surprised if he was on £50k or more.

I don't doubt that. You can always hope though.

Only saw the results this morning - and this one has just made my day. Up yours, Spurs!

Thanks for that, very interesting article. Not a very encouraging read if you're Ameobi though

In other news: 1528: GOAL Everton 1-0 Wigan Leon Osman heads Everton in front from around the penalty spot after Tony Hibbert's cross takes a deflection off Titus Bramble.

Cheers mate, you're a star! Seconded. Thanks!

We are top of the league!

3-0!

Fucking hell...

Someone pinch me!

Oh yes.

Can't say I'm too disappointed, it's Spurs after all.

Again, assuming a shred of truth: I'm Nobby's biggest fan, but I completely agree.

People were saying that a year ago and he went on to have a good season in a poor team. With better players around him, he will be a good asset, and there's absolutely no point in selling him. We won't get money for him, but we'll lose an experienced player who I imagine is also doing a lot to help the younger players in the squad.

Also - NJS mentioned it above - Oliver's stupid drivel about foreign managers (and players) is just cringeworthy. "United supporters want a manager who has a feel for the club", etc. I also love how he repeatedly took digs at Allardyce when Roeder and Souness were in charge, saying that we were better off without him and that we were lucky Allardyce didn't get the job after he turned us down. Singing a different tune now, eh?

The way he was desperately trying to make the appointment of Souness look good by insisting he had been a serious contender for the Chelsea job was utterly ridiculous.

We'll probably end up with three new left-backs

I just hope it all goes horribly wrong.

It will be disastrous if the move doesn't go through now. What is Ashley playing at? £6m for Dyer is a good deal.

Good stuff!

Very nice compilation, thanks for that.
