    Both could be off to ACON mate, so how much emphasis can you put on their partnership?

    Can you afford to lose both for a month?

    Not really no but get Caceres in and he and O'Shea might be able to hold the fort. It depends who's available, if we can get two Kone quality non ACON players then great sell him forthwith but I dunno if that would happen, it's a gamble and I'm sick of gambling I want some stability in the team now we're showing some.

    @commachio1 yeah if it's a straight choice between sell Pickford or Kone then there's really no decision to make, bye Kone.

    If we got £18 million for Kone, how much would be left after taking the various payments to things like agents.
    Then,
    How much of what was left over would be available for a replacement.

    Don't expect to get a full eighteen million to spend.
    We'd be lucky if we got eight million to use.

    DM must feel the medical staff haven't got enough work on their hands.

    Worth a punt though, a class act if we can keep him fit.

    im giving the lad a chance , he has potential and the more he plays the better he gets, its hard to fit straight in,he showed against Watford hes getting better

    we should not have let Lens go out on loan

    N'Dong's a good player. He gets the ball moving forward better than anyone else in our midfield, he completes more passes than anyone else, and when he does lose the ball its usually in attacking positions. He's got bags of energy and he's only going to get better.
    You're right about Lens. He should still be here and we should never have bothered with Januzaj.

    obviously all to do with wages mate, and that greedy bookfiddling **** of a yank, sooner he ****s off the better, bet he is not even interested if the person he sells to is fit and proper so long as he gets his wedge, supports ffp yea right so he doesnt have to shell out , loans us money from his own company at 8% interest, been better off going to a loan shark,

    I think NDong's the kind of player that you don't really miss until they're gone and you realise just how much graft they put in. I bet he covers the most ground each game in our side.

    He really does though he just keeps on going and going. You need at least one of them but we haven't had one for ages.

    I don't understand why he's been getting criticism to be honest. He's maybe a bit rough around the edges but he puts a shift in. I like him.

    I do, I was a bit disappointed at his lack of quality in attack but I can see his strengths now and they're useful ones. He's got a brain too, he doesn't just dive in like a dick, I think he's a reliable player.
