    I see all the likes and that is exactly what im saying...<laugh> At the end of the day if we go down it wont make a blind difference to me personally as i will never ever put another penny into the club, But that don't mean i want them to go down but if they do then so what.....with Curtis now confirmed as the manager until the end of the season then it's going to be tough to stay up...

    A lot of people are assuming we need someone .....including Jenkins ....Personally , I'm not totally convinced either way but I will be one way or the other after the next few games .

    so apart from villa we are the lowest scorers in the league 2 strikers who have scored 1 goal between them since August and we don't need one.

    From August till Monk got sacked we were mismanaged , same guys playing without fresh ideas .
    We have the same good players , including the benchers , with fresh ideas since and are playing better , you have to admit that lefty .
    Curtis has been doing a good job without a striker , he gets Eder back and will probably get a mid grade striker before the window shuts . To much onus has been put on scoring goals , but not letting goals in is equally important
    Curtis has already got the leaking of goals fixed , When Eder and a possible new striker are added to the Arsenal , I have no doubt he will fix that too . Very confident about that but we will see soon enough , at least we know what's happening and I bet the players are happy about the announcement , how they feel is a lot more important than how we feel .

    I do agree mate in 2 games and unfortunately we lost those 2 games, but we have always been a side that gets up for the big games, but have to be honest saw little improvement against WBA or West ham. We did show heart which was great, but short of that the performances were very average and we were outplayed for periods against a poor WBA who should have got something out of the game. So yes there is definitely an improvement in heart, but not so much in our general play, we still look toothless and absolutely clueless in the last third. Lets hope it will change.

    Looks like West Ham have joined Palace and Newcastle in the hunt for Shelvey.
    With us ,seemingly , allocating at between 9 and 14 million for a striker I can't see us not selling Shelvey if our price is met ,no matter what Curtis thinks.

    Looks like Bournemouth are going to sign him on the weekend for 10 million , Bournemouth are going to be tough 2nd half of the season and are probably going to slowly climb away from the relegation battle imo ... Not good news .

    Have you noticed how often when we get linked with a player Newcastle get linked with the same player a couple of days later.

    The Sun reporting that we're making a move for Nigel De Jong and Bony!

    Please be bloody true.

    Sell Gomis, Jonjo and Eder and bring Bony home. As for Jonjo, if he goes to Palace he'll end up on the bench imo.
