    Ah ok: let’s have a deek.

    If that’s the case why do people call him Burnsie?

    Unfortunately I agree. I would prefer a new CM over a CB. But ideally both.

    No idea I take all the twitter stuff and a fair bit of newsnow stuff with a punch of salt. Even journalists who have previously been reliable I have to question how accurate they are at this time of the year?

    I would take both Carlos and Haidara and if we bought them two I would be happy.

    Some leaks are real mind. The trippier deal was leaked in 1974 but only got completed last week.

    I’m sure they will improve things. Whether it’s enough. I don’t know.

    One thing is. I don’t know about Howe now but I’m giving him the benefit because he’s not had much of a chance. But if he gets 4 or his own players in and there isn’t an improvement in the short term. Then I start to doubt.

    Not going to happen

    Carlos Botman Haidara no happening

    We're looking at the likes of Jones and any old donkey they can get ripped off for

    Haidara would be Shelvey replacement if it where me.

    If we line up with Lascelles and Shelvey in Feb in our first game. That won’t be good news.

    I'll go a few more than just him

    GK - They're all ****e
    LWB - Needed
    2 X CB's needed
    2x cm need
    1 x striker needed

    I reckon we'll get Botman/Carlos 1 x cm later on in the window, Dembele.

    Mate Eddie Howe has made it crystal clear that lacelles and Shelvey will not be replaced.

    Forget it mate! We've got yet another taty

    We're getting relegated in the next 2 games if we lose them.

    No chance whatsoever of those names

    Maybe. But he’s at least slightly better looking than Bruce.!

    That stimulates a point. I wonder what Eddies actual remit was when he took the role on.

    Think about it. Maybe his objective was to avoid relegation. If his objective isn’t met. Then surely he has failed?

    I'm not big Bruce fan, but Bournemouth sent down without any fight or change fron Howe.. He just accepted it and saw it through.

    If Steve bruce is anything it's a fighter
