This thread is a good laugh from a couple of windows ago:

Full of Alpine wisdom. Why oh why has a club not employed him?
He improved massively last year, was very, very good for them. He went to Sevilla in the end, their replacement for the polish fella who is coming here.....maybe....i wish...
Celtic could be set to revive their interest in Club Brugge defender Brandon Mechele with speculation continuing to mount regarding the future of Virgil van Dijk, writes the Evening Times.
Well, seeing as we finished 1 place higher, 4 points better off, with only 33 goals conceded......we didn't lose any momentum what so ever.
Trash post.
90% of those players are attacking players, which is an area we're pretty much stocked up on anyway. So we didn't need those players. I'm sure most of those sides would love one from Mane, Tadic, Pelle, Rodriguez, Juanmi, Long
The observation that Newcastle lost their hold after Tiote is a correct one, but I'd agree with you on Anita - I don't think he was particularly special in the game, it's just that Tiote was so far off of batch fitness it was frightening. He didn't look anywhere near ready for PL football.
The club clearly feel that we need another CB, and more strength and experience in the middle. That's the 2 positions I can see being filled by deadline day, with the CB being the most important.
I have a feeling that there may be something in the Jedinak rumour. PL experience, international, good season for palace last year. He's a big presence on the field as well.
He may not be the sexy signing that many clamor for, but it would be a very shrewd signing that creates us a very strong midfield.
I didn't see a problem with fitness, we grew as the game went on. If it had gone on for another 30 mins, we'd probably have won it. Newcastle were the ones out on the feet by the end.
I reckon we'll looking more likely at the Norwich game to be honest, and that will probably be the bench. After the internationals he'd have had a good week or so training and should go straight back in.
