    Stoke City have completed the signing of Saido Berahino.

    West Ham have signed defender Jose Fonte from Southampton for £8m on a two-and-a-half-year deal.

    The most depressing part is that Steve Bruce slowly created a great team with some top quality players with good values. And if we kept improving that squad every year then who knows how we could have established ourselves in the Premier League. Now Ehab is single handily dismantling it in a way that it could take a decade to rebuild.

    Leeds, Sheff Wed, Sheff Utd etc

    That's because Ehab is a clueless motherfucker.

    Iron Brew shortened their name, which is why everyone in Asia now drinks it.

    To be fair a more appropriate shortened name would be Iron Brewster.

    I think he knows full well what he's doing. It screams of vindictive revenge to the fans.

    I really want to get behind Silva because he is one of the most exciting young managers in European football.

    steve bruce created a team that under achieved, thats why we got relegated, he created a squad and couldnt find a formation or system to get the best out of his players. Ramirez, Ben Arfa, Thudd

    Steve Bruce did a great job but he definitely did not build a "great" team. Also just because Ehab/Silva have decided to sell Livermore and possibly Snodgrass does not mean that we wont be replacing them with potentially better players.

    End of the day we need to have faith in Silva and stop blaming everything on the owners. We dont know how much Livermore pushed for the deal to go through or what Snodgrass is doing behind the scenes to get a new club... its not all black & white.

    A team that has almost every player linked with a Premier League club. A team that was promoted last season.

    That team with investment and with the likes of Diame and Livermore still in it, managed by Silva would be exciting.

    Fair I felt Bruce's time had come to an end but he brought together these players.

    Linked but very few left, which proves how good they were apart from Chester and Brady. People are moaning about Jake but no pl club came in for him, or elmo, or thudd or any of them. If they were great players in a great team they wouldnt still be here

    I don't see how Diame would have fitted into our side. He's lazy and you rarely see the best out of him. I wasn't bothered at all that he left.

    Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

    Sorry I can't stop laughing at your insistence that Steve Bruce was creating a great team with good values!!! I think good values are what Chelsea look for in players! (Bless him he looks after his mum well, let's sign him) So great in fact it got us relagated from the premier league, wasted a European campaign, then won promotion from the championship by at times playing awful football to watch and no doubt this season would be exactly where we are now! In the bottom 3!

    Let me spell it out for some of you,

    This squad we have before Marco Silva arrived was largely built by Steve Bruce, this squad was not good enough and neither Steve Bruce or Mike Phelan could see that. The difference with Marco Silva is he can see it's not good enough and isn't afraid to say it!!!

    Now the changes he's making come May might not have worked and we may see ourselves relegated but there is one thing that's certain! We have a chance which if you lot got your way and we made no changes and stuck with Bruce or Phelan, couldn't be said as we would be down in 20th place!

    I see people on here posting saying things like, the Allams should be putting there hand in there pockets and splashing the cash to guarantee premier league survival! 1. That's never a guarantee and 2. Your the same bloody people who complain when they spend money by saying 'we gonna be doomed if we get relagated' and 'we will be the next Leeds!' Yet when they actually make careful decisions like signing players on loan who if we get relegated are then off our wage budget for next season, you all start screaming 'get the cheque book out!!'

    Ehab Allam is a cancer that needs removing from this football club, but and here's the bit most dont get, if you take your tinted glasses off and stop been so bloody negative you will see that for once they appear to be giving us a bloody chance!

    We were screaming for change in December yet come January we get
    1. New manager who comes with a great reputation.
    2. A manager who comes with some great contacts in the European market! Unlike Bruce who signed mostly dross.
    3. A manager who is willing to stick his neck on the line and change the team how he sees fit.
    4. A manager who is very good at working under tight restriction.

    Yet now all those people who wanted change are now not happy with the above! It really does make me bang my head in confusion.

    Lastly, buckle up people because unlike under Bruce and Phelan, this second half of the season may just be the most exciting half a season we have seen in a long time. Stop been so negative and let's see how it all plays out!

    Rant over
