I think CM is the number one priority. We have no top-two quality cover there at all. Other positions which need addressing but which aren't as urgent are: RB: (keep Semi and Murty, keep one, keep none?) CF: we need to confirm whether Papa and Connolly will stay, if not we need to sign a pacy stricker. I don't see CB as a weak area at all. Unless Jaidi is about to call it a day we have three players of good enough quality IMO. We also have the option of Thomas and Perry if we think we need further cover there and apparently Martin looked decent today. We might decide we want to splash out on another excellent player, a la Fonte, but it really isn't a priority IMO.

Probably best if they don't come for cup matches against Sunderland. They might think it is a little tiny bit ****e.

I would argue that competition to compete with Schneiderlin is just as important. Bascially, we do need to strengthen in CM.

Didn't hear that but why play him today unless it was with a "show me what you can do" next season message? If AP was confident he wanted to keep him then it would've made more sense to give McNish or someone else a game. I wouldn't be surprised if James leaves. Unless he played well today.

It is pretty tragic isn't it?

That's 93 points, so yes it would. It would also be the total from 44 games but there will be 46.

What about the other two matches?

My offer stands.

Don't think so.

Army would batter them in a fight.

Da little feckin oooieeejets. I will give each one a £1 to go back and help with the development of Oiireland.

In a nutshell!

I'm pretty sure they're not trying to lose.

Well we always used to win. HTH.

Dave thinks the fans will be disappointed with the first half. You know, he may have a point. It hadn't occurred to me but it is definitely plausible.

Or samba skills.

No width or pace.

3 out and out strikers. Interesting.

Oh no - good point. What with that and their refereeing conspiracy against us we're boogerred.

Merrington - "looks as if he could possibly be coming on." No **** Dave.

@ Window Cleaner.

For what position though? CM? I sincerely hope we're signing another CM so he would be fourth or fifith choice if that's the case. At RB we currently have three better options, although admittedly Murty might deceide to hang up the boots. I think a move would be good for him.

I've seen a photo of him wearing next season's kit.

Do-or-die match for James IMO.
