The Buttner deal is important is we are to improve. It appeared that Shaw played in a more advanced role tonight, and both Fox and Buttner (from what we've seen on Youtube, admittedly) like to get forward too and can both play in LM so they can all cover Lallana. The 4 lads, Stephens, Shaw, Ward-Prowse and Chambers weren't promoted to the first team for the sake of it. They're all very talented and I'm sure that in the cup games this year, they'll all be in the starting X1.

Not as near as good as they were last season. Have lost a lot of their squad over the summer to higher league teams, as well as their manager. Still, 11-2 is a mauling.

McDermott's already said no to that one.

The sarcastic comments like "OMG that was so funny :lol:" are just as boring as those who still use the original Skacel joke.

Well yes, I'm sure the club talked the basics of a deal with him and his agent, but they wouldn't want to go too forward with it. 'Tapping up' and all that.

I can only presume that we weren't allowed to enter personal terms until the two clubs agreed a fee.

I for one think Mackie would be a good option out on the RW.

Spurs in 'having 500 more midfielders than they need' shocker.

How many more times does it need to be said that he can play LM and CM too?

Am I the only one who doesn't give a flying fudge about what the new kit looks like and will just be wearing last season's one as there's nothing wrong with it?

What's the obsession with comparing Lambert and Carroll? Similar players yes, but they'll be playing for sides with such conflicting aims and objectives next season. One's 30 years old, the other 23. Give Lambert a chance first. We don't know if he's good enough for the Premier League yet because he's never played a game at the level before. He'll have the faith of the manager and his team-mates so instead of creating threads such as...: "Is Adkins good enough?" "Is Lambert good enough?" ...every summer, get behind them to give them the belief that they are good enough. Rant over.

Pretty much exactly what you said. Can't wait for pre-season to get going now. Losing to Derby on penalties in the play-offs will always hurt 10x more than any inevitable England failure.

It had Cortese on it for about 10 seconds. Therefore, I am going to pretend I don't like the bloke or that he is the Dictator of Southampton for attention on forums.

I suspect the Walsall away one was worse.

Could persuade him Le Tiss still plays for us by just sending him a video of Lambert taking penalties.

£5 million? Yikes.

Said he's not going. That's the end of this thread, then.

Incredibly versatile (CB, LB and LW - strange combo).

Can play AM or on either wing. Get him in.

That's not true. Falque signed a new deal with Spurs the day he signed on loan for us.

Supposedly predicted the Sharp and Hooiveld deals right.

Oh I'm sure you've already written to them. They'll struggle even without a points deduction. They're League 2 bound.

£2m + Puncheon for Ince, according to the Mirror: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/blackburn-rovers-boss-wants-sir-850478?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
