  4. Nah - just enjoying pointing out that they haven't won in 28 years. May not get the chance to say it much longer <yikes>

    PSG seems to be the most linked but is that just because they are French and he is too?

    Not sure they'd use Doucouré as much more than a squad player like when Cabeye went there.

    Doucouré thinks it could have been his last home game so just wanted to say thanks to the fans

    <laugh> Great clubs do have barren periods Dan. Man Utd didn't win the league between 1967 and 1992 but it didn't stop them being a great club. The same applied to Real Madrid who didn't win the European Cup between 1966 and 1998. They have been waiting for a manager who really understands the club - who could take over in the tradition of Shankly, Paisley, Joe ***an, KD, and Klopp really knows what makes the club tick.

    No...well I guess in the end it may be a bit like Ricky, if it’s €50m then it’s an offer we can’t really refuse.

    Alas... but who knows, really? Speculation thus far is all it can be, though I doubt he'll be with us come July, short of a major injury. €50+ would swing it I'd have thought, too.

    Interesting isn't it that in a season where Capoue as arguably outperformed Doucoure that nobody appears interested in him.

    I think that age comes into it. Capoue is 30 while Doucoure has only just turned 26.
