very interesting comments from Caceres agent that I found http://www.calcioweb.eu/foto/esclusiva-calcioweb-lagente-tropiano-svela-vi-svelo-futuro-budimir-caceres/id/10113961/#1

I do hope there is more to the Caceres situation and we do everything to keep him!

So The9, you reckon its a strong possibilty that Caceres could yet stay

Why is Caceres not being retained, a genuine world class defender? Cannot understand this!

I understand that but Ryan has already been at a 'big' club and he was never really first choice there. He's one of the first names on the team sheet with us. I for one hope we can hang onto him!

Adam Blackmore interviewed Bertrand recently and he stated that he's happy here, so I don't know where this has come from. Perhaps the rumours of player unrest with the management include RB.

Just listened to the interview with Eric Black & I thought that he spoke very well. I don't get why some people have an agenda against him, he's doing a very good job so far alongside Claude.

I'm hoping Caceres gets a start. I expect there to be at least one or two changes to the side like Claude has hinted. Going for a 2-0 victory, Gabbi and Boufal to score COYR

Yeah agreed, I thought he definitely was one of our best performers. I really don't get the criticism of him, he has not had a consistent run in the team yet.

Didn't someone else say recently that their was interest from the USA?

Caceres has to play on Saturday. Too good to be on the bench.

I wonder going by sky, whether its more of a 4-3-3 that Claude has gone for.

Where did you hear that from? Think its nonense tbh

Well going by whose written the article, a certain Alex Crook! Nothing to read here. Cedric is settled here and enjoying his football COYR

Boufal must still have a knock otherwise surely he would feature as this game would be made for him. Pleased as punch for Maya, deserves to be captain today good to see both Pierre and Jordy in the starting 11. COYR

Hopefully Sofiane is fit for tomorrow night, definitely would think about starting him.

That is great news. Well done Nathan & Prowsey, both have been in great form recently and have earnt their call ups. Pleased for Fraser & Ryan too! This must be the first time ever we have had four players in the same squad. COYR

Kevin Friend has just proved again why he is the worst ref to ever have graced the game. Truly shocking, bottled a lot of decisions in this game. Still never forgotten his dismal performance when we played Liverpool at home a few years ago. Bottled two penalty decisions for us that day too.

The journey begins! Absolutely buzzing, COYR 2-0 to the Saints Gabbiadini & Tadic, lets do this!

This would be unbelievable!!! Please Please be true. VVD is just a phenomenal player and his return would boost the whole club even further. COYR

Absolutely brilliant news. A top level centre half. Hopefully he will be fit enough to feature in the final. Well done Les and the board for making this happen. And welcome onboard Martin

Will we expect an announcement this evening?

Hopefully the injury to Boufal isn't serious and he's fit for the Sunderland game. COYR

Get Caceres in!! He's class and would hopefully sort out our problems at the back.
