This.

I wonder if he'll risk Kompany...

Mauricio Pochettino has verbally agreed a new five-year contract with Tottenham. The new deal adds two further years onto his existing contract, which will keep him at White Hart Lane until 2021.

Shows you how far we've come that we are trying to "tap up" an Arsenal player to come here rather than the other way around

THIS!

In regards to wages etc : Do we have to conform to financial fair play still? I know we had to, but then didn't UEFA lapse the rules? (Or was that just for champions league clubs?)

I predicted long ago that a lazy journo would create that story

City apparently asked for the game to get moved to Saturday, but it got rejected.

You just never know what City are going to turn up. The one that hammered Stoke, or the one that was holding on against Newcastle. Biggest fear is that they always seem to score a few against us, and we are shipping a fair few in. Really hoping we can catch them at a good time in between Real Madrid matches.

Not sure there was ever any snubbing. Pre-Newcastle move, I don't believe we were in for him. We had interest a year or 2 ago though.

Did I read somewhere that he has an £8m release clause too?

I'm still hoping Chamberlain comes down and plays.

Whilst not mentioned in the original post, Pione Sisto probably worth a shout as a player we've been linked with who is comparable in style to these 3.

I like all 3 to varying degrees. Ox 1st. He's more versatile in the positions he could play and we have that connection with him where I want him to reach his full potential. Doubts over fitness though. Depay 2nd. Was a great talent at PSV. Could probably flourish under Koeman, but must be on BIG wages and probably has worst attitude of the 3. He did cost United £30m though, so not sure how much he would cost. Townsend 3rd. Could see him at Saints, but can also see him as Puncheon Mk.2 (in dividing fan opinion etc).

Yeah. We tried before his final season at PSV I think.

Probably correct. Im pretty sure I remember him saying at the Radio Solent fans forum that he'd be interested in him if Utd wanted to sell him though.

DEPAY 'OFFERED ON THE CHEAP' Manchester United are looking to sell Memphis Depay this summer, according to the Daily Mirror. The 22-year-old has not made the desired impact on the Premier League since his move from PSV last summer, and has reportedly been offered to both English and European clubs for a reduced deal.

Sullivan did say most of their budget will go on a striker, but I'm fairly sure they could find a spare £15m behind the sofa. A lot depends on whether the earlier John Cross story was true re: Ox not wanting to go to another London club.

The level he needs to hit is how he played at Stamford Bridge - He was fantastic that day.

How has Gueye played for villa today?

Only we could gift a team like Villa a gift goal when we should have them buried.
