Since this thread is pointless anyway, here is a lamb rogan josh.

Hi Can you provide some links to the threads on the Villa, Derby, Port Vale and Colchester forums, where they're all laughing at us. Thanks. xx

We are getting silly offers for players, that's what. I like the stuff I own but if someone offered me £1m for my house, £200k for my car, £20k for my wris****ch and £50k for my TV I'd take it. Even if it is a lot of replacing to do. It's the players we buy who define our ambition, not the ones we sell.

Well yes, he is one of those starters who was an unused substitute in 3 of our last 4 games and got 10 minutes at the end against Man Utd.

My thoughts exactly. I wonder how the Arsenal fans would react if they spent £16m on Southampton's reserve RB.

Tripped over his quiff.

Excellent, so you wont be posting on here ever again then.

I work at Gatwick so it's a common journey for me. You could do £15 return on Saturdays last season.

Now we're talking. Whilst we're on the subject of Bind girls, I wouldn't say no to Ursula Andress or Britt Ekland either.

I'd be in favour of trying CC at CB too, I mentioned it on another thread. For me it's a dead heat between them in terms of ability. Both excellent players so it would depend on the opposition. At home to Burnley, Clyne every time. A trip to the Bernabeu against Bale and Ronaldo would probably require the more defensive Calum. In short, there is no right answer to this one. It would be nice to find a LB and a left sided CB who can also cover LB, to replace Lovren. Then we have good versatility and depth in most positions.

Players I consider up to the job who are likely to stay Keeper - Boruc, Davis* Defender - Clyne, Chambers, Fonte, Yoshida, Jos* D Mid - Cork, Wanyama, JWP A Mid - Tadic, Davis, Gaston Striker - Pelle, J Rod *'The job' being 3rd choice 'keeper and 4th choice CB in this case. Wouldn't want either in the starting XI. Leaves us needing 5 IMO, if Lovren and Morgan leave. 4 if they dont. GK, LB, ST and AM are definites, even if everyone stays. Have enough CM power even without Morgan IMO

Growing up I was all about Rachel from S Club 7. Showing my lack of age a tad. Sh*t I need a rumour to go with it... Arouna Kone?

People's Republic of Luhansk to beat England in the group stages.

They look like a friendly bunch.

Will be an A1 sized fold out I believe.

I've just checked with my source at St Mary's and I've found out the story Phil is on about. Tomorrow Maxim publish the photo shoot where Katharina gets them out. I personally can't wait.

Because he scored 6 goals in the Championship least season. He did a job getting us promoted but there isn't enough about his game to be a Premier League striker.

I'm sure Chambers has played CB before for the youth teams. Perhaps that way we can fit him and Clyne in the team, although I can't see it happening. Boruc Clyne - Chambers - Fonte - ???? Cork - Wanyama - JWP Davis - Pelle - Tadic Based on our current options, I'd be tempted to try this. I'm certain we will have a new LB in by the time we go to Anfield. Targett just isn't ready for that kind of baptism.

Lallana has had one good season in the Premier League, just like Charlie Adam and Andy Carroll. Shaw is all about potential quality. Utd didn't pay £30m because he is the best LB in the league, they were buying the potential. Lambert is 32 and already needed replacing. Grant Holt was proven quality a year or two ago, now he is playing for some pub team in Devon.

It will if we spend the rest of the money on another four top quality players. I'd rather have six decent players than three.

No. It isn't embarrassing, it isnt even close. Embarrassing is calling up a sex chat line and finding out its your mum on the other end of the phone. Or spending £35m on Andy Carroll, I can't decide which is worse. What we have done is sell - Lallana for the same price as of Germanys World Cup winners, Kroos and Khadeira - A 32 year old for 4 times what we paid for him - Shaw for the highest fee ever recorded for a teenager (depending on which reports you believe). We've replaced 2 of them spending less than a third of the money we made from sales. There is nothing embarrassing or alarming here.

But you will stick your head in the sand and pretend replacements aren't coming.

I can't see Targett as first choice LB. Not even close, he has yet to make a Prem appearance even as a sub. Remember last summer when everyone thought Isgrove was going to be a regular, after an impressive preseason tour. I think this is a similar situation and it's wishful thinking to expect Targett to be ready just like that. If he starts at Anfield I will eat my hat. Not my Mclaren baseball cap, I just bought that. I've got an old beanie I used to use for skiing, I could marinade that in some sort of stroganoff and eat that. Where was I? Oh yeah, we need a LB.

Yes, my post was in response to Clarke's post above. Just had a flick through a Ukrainian football forum. A couple of them reckon its going to be a 14 team League and Shakhtar are going to play their home games in Kharkhiv.
