Pretty much.

That's just amazing, Inter Milan fans, yep Inter Milan, are asking us to keep our mits off of one of their best young players. Who on earth saw this as a possibility a few years back? Our rise is incredible really when you think about it. A lot of thanks to ML, for sure.

Their owners want to make a statement though, they want to get the fans back on their side. It's fair to say that they've ****ed a fair few off after their dealings over the last month. Their chairman is pretty vocal at the best of times via twitter etc, and is a known admirer of Sharp as a player. According to one of their fans, he's actually publicly said in one of the hospitality lounges that they will do all they can to sign him now.

Don't you start...

I give up to be honest, you can't reason with a clear moron. For what it's worth I don't believe he's a troll, he's a genuine fan. But he's a moron.

After spending over £30m in the summer, whilst breaking our transfer record TWICE, that is one of the most stupid things you've ever said. There is being tight fisted (i.e a 90k budget for Fuller) and there is being sensible with what we have, using it wisely and not being taken to the cleaners by clubs and agents. For some reason you seem keen for us to overpay just to get it done quickly, which is a good method for ensuring we enter financial meltdown in the near future. And I'd bet your bottom dollar that if that did happen, you'd be the first to moan about the lack of financial management.

The fact of the matter is that if we were winning most weeks, you wouldn't hear from Alpine. That's been proven quite a lot. He seemed to go very quite during a decent spell recently. He'll use the reason that there's not much to talk about when we're winning, well there is, just not many negative things to talk about. Which is all he seems to want to talk about. I feel sorry for him really, very depressed.

They've earned my trust.

Do you know what will fix everything? Alpine as Charmian, Dalek as manager. There will never be any more defeats, we will sign players within minuites and we will establish ourselves as a top 4 club. It's very easy apparently.

You said exactly the same about the Ramirez deal, almost word for word.

This season we have had an uncanny knack of conceding goals at ****, **** times. I.E just before half time, just at the start of the 2nd half, in the last minuite of the game! Could be down to concentration, lack of fitness early on in the season. But it's improved recently, can't deny that. We're a pretty solid shape these days. Don't read too much into our defensive performance against Chelsea, they were just irresistible for a spell and there was nothing we could have ever done to prevent it. Sometimes you just have to hold your hands up and admit that the oppo are just on a different planet.

Not the sort of player I want us to sign, yet. I think he's going to be pretty good, but we'll just be having a deja vu moment if we signed him now.

tbf I've seen instances where players have been stretched off, and are then playing again the next weekend. I know it was a knee injury he sustained, but no idea on what. Could have been a strain, or a twist and nothing major at all.

tbf I've actually seen him live on Sky earlier last year, very, very, very good.

We have done a couple of those this year, but we've often cocked it up and it's ended up us being on the defensive as the team break out at us.

I don't think anyone is disagreeing with what you say at all, buty it just seems like you're assuming that our interest in this guy means that we're not working on signing CB's or other positions. As has been said many times, clubs work on multiple deals for multiple players over multiple weeks. All this assuming is just based on media leaks, that's it. The club haven't told us who they're after.

Can't even see us signing Dunne. Will probably just recall Seaborne and add him and Martin to the squad, the club is useless and cannot sign anybody, ever.

We have some inpatient idiots as fans, we really do.

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri Aston Villa contacted Inter to ask about Coutinho. No bid made, but has been mentioned a possible 10m € offer

wtf is that based on?

I'm also stunned at how people fail to understand this quite, simple concept.

Ok.

I was just a figment of my mums imagination in those days.

Great description, he's exactly that.
