Well, we knew we needed to spend money on our defence...

@JongsmaJongsma: @SimonPeach In my humble opinion his potential is higher than that of Lovren and Alderweireld. Great on the ball, but good in duels too. @JongsmaJongsma: @SimonPeach To clarify, he can operate 'on his own', doesn't need to be guided. Big difference with other two I think. Jongsma is pretty knowledgeable so sounds good...

Swansea looked really strong, hopefully they can take our place as the lazy Top 6's feeder team for a couple of years....

Shut the front door! He's the stalwart of my FM save alongside Pogba (hooray for realism), if that's anything to go by we'll walk the league in 4 years If this is a coverup for us signing someone worse that's not a very good idea - would have been like the club leaking that we were in for Alexis Sanchez before signing Long...

Think there was meant to be a comma in there, Hugo is Player Liaison Officer

Mane was from someone on here who works for Sky, can't remember who though

I don't think I've ever seen the word "geezer" in such an upper middle class sentence before...

It's run like a seaside B & B, get it right! Unfortunately Arnhem is about as far away from the sea as one can get in the Netherlands so may not be too helpful to ask the club... Hostelworld or Hostelbookers may be a better choice, that's what I've used on my travels

£15m apparently (VvD = £10m, Austin = £15m asking price), doubt we'll spend anything like £40m more though. Would guess it'll be another £20m odd maybe £25m at a push

Marseille have signed Diaby - could Nkoulou DAJFU?

Was just being flippant, I should have said "Liverpool haven't won a trophy of note for 10 years and don't look much more likely to than us for the forseeable future"

Liverpool don't win anything either and everyone hates them...

Christ....

West Brom have very quietly been having an absolutely diabolical (see what I did there) transfer window...

Cedric looks absolutely brilliant

Pirlo only on $2m compared to Lampard and Gerrard both on $6m +

Cherno Samba just retired, maybe we can coax him back for a Championship Manager pairing to beat all others...

I thought Art was an alright poster, definitely not worth organising a march against...

In fairness if he turns out to be any good he'll go to Liverpool for £25m in 2 years and we'll buy either another Bhoy or that young lad Feyenoord bought to replace him. Our recent dealings with Liverpool, Celtic and Feyenoord are nothing if not indicative of the Ouroboros-esque nature of football... (I'm not remotely drunk as you can probably tell)

So we've got 3 young players with international experience for a grand total of some £15.5-odd million, or 1.3 $hlongs. Brava, Lesley, Brava!

@SimonPeach: Lots of talk about Atletico Madrid's Mario Suarez to St Mary's, but I am told #SaintsFC have not made contact about him

Get with the times Shance, it's 0.875 $hlongs....

Quoteability of 3/5?!? "Chips without mayonnaise is not chips" is right up there with "I have a dream..." and "That's one small step for man..."

Ranieri appointed the new Leicester boss, here's Saggy's take on the matter: "@Redknapp: Ranieri is a nice guy, but he's done well to get the Leicester job. After what happened with Greece, am surprised he can walk back into PL" Think it's a bit harsh to blame him for what's happening in Greece, but Arry's always been in the know on the economic side of things...
