    Geoffrey Mujangi Bia was spotted in a local furniture outlet. Make of that what you will.

    No.

    Other than Ben Arfa.

    Not a chance.

    The war chest was purported to be £5million for this window and Ben Arfa will have taken up the entire kitty.

    Agree, over the moon with Ben Arfa. I suppose he will be like a new signing when he makes his comeback.
    Is it true that the ARSEnal game comeback target?

    I doubt if we will sign anyone. I think that Mike Ashley has decided that as we are looking safe from relegation, he doesn't have to spend any more cash this season. Taking into account our injury situation and the probabilty of Tiote and Barton receiving further bans (due to accumulating yellow cards), he may feel that a european place is outside of our reach, so won't boost the squad numbers.

    I do not think that we are still safe from relegation, but I am trying to guess what Ashley is thinking.

    I still believe that Ashley will try to sell the club in the summer and so does not wish to put too much more of his own capital into the club. He will get the same price whether we finish 9th or 13th, so why spend on the team.?

    You forgot '(due to accumulating yellow cards and being Joey Barton)'.

    Probably not, but we will watch sky sports news relentlessly like a bunch of perverts up a tree. Every transfer window for the past 3-4 years we get excited about signings and nothing happens. zzzzzzzzzzz

    He was kidnapped apparently. Police have been looking for a revenge seeking advertising billboard.

    Last news I heard of him was that his daughter had died. Poor bloke.

    I'd have been happy with signing no one else this window, but then we sold Routledge. He needs to be replaced in my opinion. Scored a cracking goal for QPR on his redebut.

    I said that Mujangi fella as a joke but I just looked at him on Wiki and then 'Tubed him, and I tell you what he looks a class act. Exactly what we need. A pacy right winger and he has a decent shot on him to boot.
