They seem to have forgotten they were a mid table nowhere club before the Arabs arrived - just like Chelsea before the Russians arrived. And just like Chelsea fans they've gone all big time Charlie very quickly!

Maybe he should have signed for us a couple of years ago when he had the chance - instead of Blackpool - we were always the bigger club and were always going to end up playing at a level or two above them - that's all I'm going to say - that and I prefer Zaha - much cooler name and goes much better with Ramirez!

both apparently!

Excited and nervous - maybe a little bit fearful. I always thought we needed to add 6 or 7 premier quality players to our squad to make the setp up and the fact we haven't done so yet worries me. But it's important to remember the transfer window is not yet shut and there is still time to bring in another 3 or 4 players. It was obvious last season that our defence was never going to make the step up - the full backs simply couldn't defend and the centre backs made too many mistakes - and far too many goals were scored from the edge of the area as they backed off attacking players far too much.

How about Niklas Moisander or Douglas Franco Texeira from the Eredivise - I'd be happy with either of them if not both.

From the transfer rumours site for what it's worth: Southampton have been alerted to the news that Real Madrid have made their young French defender Raphaël Varane available for loan although they will face stiff competition from a number of other clubs. Nigel Adkins is also interested in St Etienne midfielder Josuha Guilavogui while the club are eyeing a potential double deal for Rennes duo Jonathan Pitroipa and Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik. Jeremain Lens and Adam Johnson are two other names that firmly remain on Adkins' shortlist.

How about Douglas or Niklas Moisander from the Dutch League?

Paul McCartney has become a sad parody of an ageing rock star - they might well have had Elton John play he was so cringeworthy!

If we are going to play 4-3-3 this season do we nedd a RM or RW? Surely Cork, Chaplow or Davis would play on the right of a midfield 3 and Lallana on the left with the fullbacks providing the width and then Guly or Jay Rod playing on the right of a front three with Tandanari or Lambert on the left and Sharp in the middle. With a 4-3-2-1 or a diamond midfield we wouldn't need a Right Winger either. We do still need some more pace in the team though - and at least one if not two new centrebacks

What are they doing playing friendlies in Spain when they are bankrupt and owe people money?

I wouldn't agree with you on Notts Forest - maybe once upon a time but not now - and that was all down to a great manager and winning things in the 70s and 80s - but not in terms of a support base Same with Sheffield Wednesday Leeds - yes for now but maybe only just Villa and Everton - same as Leeds but not by much - both are in decline -Villa on the pitch and Everton off it with massive debts

I'd rather sign Surman or Barnetta on a free than to play on the left - he has a bit if pace and is direct but that is about it. Plus both of those can pass the ball and play in the middle.

I think your being very optimistic about the ability of our players to step up to the Premier League - and also how soon our youth players will step into the first team. We won't be signing squad players - we will be signing players for the first 11 - if anything I can see players like Fox and Richardson becoming second choice and not starters. Shaw, Stephens and Ward-Prowse will become the squad players. We certainly need to replace either Butterfield or Richardson with a first choice right back who can defend. If we sign Jay Rodriguez I expect him to start over Sharp or Lee - and expect Barnard to be moved on - at least on loan for a season in the Championship if nothing else as he basically missed last season. Seabourne the same.

I would expect 2 new centrebacks as Martin has gone out on loan to get games - and as he's over 21 he would count as one of the 25 - and Seabourne is unproven at Championship level let alone Premiership - plus I think he will be on his way partly because of this. I'm expecting 2 new fullbacks! I would also expect at least 1 new rightback and either Richardson or Butterfield wil leave - and 1 new left back as I suspect both Dickson and Harding will be on their way. That's on top of 1 if not 2 new strikers, 2 goalkeepers, at least 1 central midfielder and 1 winger. I think we'll see quite a few players come and go this summer.

What about the Polish right back - Pizsceck - he's rumoured to be leaving Borussia Dortmund for a team in the Premier League

Naldo from Werder Bremen - 6ft 6 centre back - the Daily Mail have linked us to him, Scott Dann, Matthew Upson and Zat Knight. Not sure he fits the profile of the kind of player we are supposed to be after - a bit too old with a fairly serious recent injury. Of those 4 I'd prefer Scott Dann if truth be told

Fraser Forster - Newcastle goalkeeper who has been on loan at Celtic

I'm going with this one!

Getting in young players on loan like Miyachi, De bruyne, McCreachan, and Guidetti would add to the depth and quality in our squad - but as they are all under 21 they wouldn't take up vital places in our 25 man squad. Plus we're probably not going to be forking out large transfer fees or heavy wages for them either. So in my book it makes sense - as long as that's not the only route we take.

Moyes will be the next Man Utd manager - he is Fergies anointed heir! His contract at Everton runs out at the end of the coming season I think - he will then move across to Old Trafford and Fergie will step up to a director role. Cahill is too old and is basically retiring to the middle east at 32!

Its not working for me! I bought 4 season tickets on my account 4 years ago and have renewed every season since then - 2 adults, 1 junior and 1 senior - all with their own customer numbers. Now 3 weeks ago I made sure I registered all of them on the new system with the correct addresses and birth dates. Tonight I went on the system and linked all 3 of them to my account. But when I tried to renew all 4 season tickets they are all in my name - and all showing at the full adult price! So it's all gone a bit wrong - bit like a night in in Skatesville!

I thought they were such a big club hey we're going to walk League One - or so a Pompey fan told me!

Tranquillo Barnetta and Danny Guthrie are both on free transfers

Given the ticket prices we will paying I would expect some big signings and to smash the £4 million record fee we paid for Delap at least once if not twice! I'm expecting young hungry players in the 21-24 age bracket with potential to improve to be the big signings. Both Rodriguez and Hooper would fit that model. Guidetti and Castaignos would also fit that description. I also think we'll sign some slightly older players with experience for small fees or free transfers. Barnetta and Guthrie would fit in here. Possibly Surman as he's has a connection to Saints. If we are clever we'll bring in some outstanding young players on loan from the big 5 or 6 to add depth to our squad as they'll be outside the 25 man rule - Shelvey, Miyachi, McCreachan - and on the understanding they'll feature more for us than their Parent clubs. I also think we'll see more players leave than people expect due to the 25 man squad rule.

Isn't he well past it by now as well
