Give it to Ron

+ 1 excellent post, 24m offset by relegation, lost revenue, employing that twitchy tw8t, promoting 3 coaches from within and never learning his lesson, Sturrock fiasco and the Brazilian soccer school.....reckon that wiped out that 24m quickly!!

According to De Telegraf deal for Morgan completed tomorrow. ....

2 breaking through in Izzy Brown and Loftus-Cheek - I really rate Brown think he will be quality and made the bench a few times last season.

Ignoring the fact we have signed a Dutch, Spanish and Portugese international for less than 10m all are an improvement to the squad...will ignre Martina for now as never heard of that country until this week.

Do you really care that much that you have to keep posting that? You have a short memory go back a few years when loveable old rosey cheeks was having a constant war with the media. Papers have nothing to write about at the moment apart from Sterling so just fill up/phone up for quotes - its the same every summer.

Yes I know he whinged in 2010 never went, whinged in Championship never went, whinged in league One never went, funnily enough disappeared for most of last year but as soon as we have a bit of doom and gloom wow glowing keyboard!! I don't know why I even bother with him but its funny watching him combust

Ogbonna? off to West Ham.

Are you sending back your season ticket in protest? Dutch, Spanish, Portugese internationals all are sh1te of course.....

No no no we are run by a bunch of arrogant incompetants ! Read above.....the last 5 years were a dream. We thought we had him then AM decided otherwise. How that is our fault? the gutless lot above can answer. Players come and go I still am upset we sold O'Neill to Huddersfield.

Have we lost the Ashes yet??

The club were expecting him to sign he was even allocated a new apprentice .

But we expected him to sign for us then AM started their games. He was included in our squad lists

So do you think the parting of the ways of Bunce is a result of this then......if so we don't mess about do we!

Interesting that no-one mentioned that we blooded 9 academy players last year! Arsenal on several occasions fielded teams with no English players

Think we will lose our squad strengthening money in that case. Not sure we have many others in his bracket.

Man Utd will sign Schweinsteiger instead and Morgan will probably go for less than we want from Arsenal as we want some return

Why is it weakened......you haven't seen any of the replacements play.....you have written off JayRod then!!! Still Gashton is back just for you

have a look at Sterlings record...yet.....

Its the first test on Wednesday....have we lost the Ashes already??

Knowing our luck he will sign for us and tear his groin and be out for 3 months

Apart from Bobby in 76 it was Marians against the blue sh1te after all he had been through injury wise.

So why does everyone have kittens and constantly whinge about 12m for a proven international we signed tgen?

Agreed but he has had some bad luck with injuries holding him back.

I am looking forward to seeing if Gape and Hesketh continue to improve - Hesketh needs to bulk up a bit but can see a decent player in him if he gains some strength similar to how Lallana(cough spit) did. Disagree with The9 above about defenders Will Wood, McCarthy and Mugabe should feature this year.

Sorry posted elsewhere
