Hughton close to signing ex-Leicester midfielder Anthony Knockaert. That would be a great signing for a Championship club.
ManUre fans "furious" at Europa League ticket prices. Well, you should have stayed in the Champions League then, you muppets http://metro.co.uk/2016/01/07/manch...ed-to-pay-71-to-watch-fc-midtjylland-5608035/
Stoke apparently after Giannelli Imbula. Cracking player. Stoke are impressing me, the way they play and the kind of transfers and targets they go after.

Sky Bet have suspended betting on Afobe to Bournemouth. I kept out of the transfer gossip thread argument that rumbled on for about 2 pages, but I agree with one poster that said something like: Do not sell Grabban to them for 8m is crap, and now they are after a player we would love, useing the money they would have given us. Which we could have used to buy him, rather than keep a crap player who hates our club. I'll be livid if they get Afobe now. 8m for a S**t player like Grabban.....how on earth can you turn that down!? He can't hit a barn door!!
Interesting game on BBC. Exeter Vs Liverpool. Liverpool kids against an Exeter side full of 30-40+ year old player I thought had retired. What will win out? Youth, enthusiasm, and energy. Or experience, clam, and know-how? At the moment. 1-0 Exeter.
Jerome Sinclair levels. Been keeping an eye on him since he broke into the team a season or so ago in the cup and impressed at about 16 years old. Also saw Man City wanted him resonantly. Kind of reminds me of Sturridge. He'll be a player in the future.
Was thinking about it a few weeks ago, and now the stories have come more and more. Real and Barca are keeping tabs on John Stones. I can imagine him fitting in naturally in both of those giants. I hope he stays in the premiership though. I enjoy watching him on MOTD
