    I don't rate him as a footballer. End of. My opinion. You can think what you want about him, I just don't think he has many abilities as a footballer.

    That's just stupid. Of course he has some ability.

    This. Al obvioiusly thinks Roberto Mancini is a complete idiot. What other reason could there be for him constantly picking Barry?

    Should have said many abilities as a footballer. Sorry, damn autocorrect.

    No obviously not. Scored a great goal for us last season.

    Yes, I admit that was the most hilarious moment of the season.

    Closely followed by Joe Hart shelling an easy catch to the feet of Steven Davis. Even the best players are capable of the occasional clanger.

    Case in point:

    Good move for him. He needs first team football.

    Andrew Surman has joined Bournemouth on season-long loan.

    Bournemouth are a decent side, but I remember when we had high hopes for Andrew. Moved to wrong club perhaps. Anyway, good luck to him.

    Never felt Surman wanted to leave us. Our financial situation dictated otherwise.

    If Surman had stayed at Saints, do we reckon he'd be getting first team football now? I think he would probably have fit quite well in front of Cork and Schneiderlin last season. Big shame it didn't work out for him.

    When is "Barry Sanchez" going to complain that we should have signed Caulker instead of Lovren?

    Very good signing for Bournemouth. I've always been a Surman fan, I'm sure he'll do we'll there.

    Good. Now I have more reason to keep an eye on the Cherries.

    As others have said, I always rated Surman and it's a shame we couldn't have kept held of him as he definitely would have progressed much more as a footballer with us than he has elsewhere, feel very sorry for him since clearly we needed to sell him rather than him pushing his way out. Think Bournemouth will be good for him.

    And I think Caulker is a good signing for Cardiff, and by the going rates these days not a bad price for a newly promoted side getting a young but Premiership-experienced centre-back with decent potential.
