I never said Diame was a waste, I said that carrying a player isn't great for team spirit. I've seen Diame plenty thank you. I don't understand why everyone's become Diame lovers, most on here wanted him dropped for large chunks of last season. It's all ifs buts and maybes. Don't you think it's funny how no PL tea came in for Diame?

Maguire has been a complete waste. A player with that much potential should not be allowed to just rot on our bench for 2 years, it does his development no good whatsoever. I actually don't care what he cost, prices have inflated so much since it's difficult to compare. £2m back then is probably worth £4/5m now. I'm probably one of the biggest advocates for bringing youth through but I actually want them to play instead of just sitting on the bench.

Tbh I aren't a fan of buying backups, when you think of it, it's quite a pointless exercise. I would rather purchase players that will improve us and then our current players will become the back ups as such and you still improve your squad.

Until the accounts come out for last year, it's difficult to know. Would we have been within the FFP limits?
I dont think you have any idea what you're saying. I'll leave it there.

Our daily round-up of the latest news and rumours surrounding Hull City in the Premier League.

Hull City may have already strengthened their midfield options during the transfer window with the arrival of the likes of Ryan Mason, James Weir and Markus Henriksen, but they're still chasing one more addition according to the Daily Mail.

The Tigers are reportedly interested in former Liverpool and Juventus midfielder Momo Sissoko, although that deal looks unlikely now he has joined West Bromwich Albion on trial.

The 31-year-old is a free agent and the Baggies are taking a look at the player this week after he left Chinese Super League outfit Shanghai Shenhua at the end of his deal.

Sunderland and City are keeping a close eye on what happens with Sissoko say the Daily Mail.

Sissoko won the FA Cup and UEFA Super Cup at Liverpool and is also a La Liga and Ligue 1 winner.

How can we target someone if we have a full list?
 
And what was Phelan and the medical staff doing then?

The manager picks the team though. It's still to early to say with Phelan as to whether he

Not everyone was really impressed by Diame last season. A few here (sometimes the same) are even big Bruce lovers here even though he lost the players at various times. Diame did look great when he started with us, much quicker and more direct. Later though whether because of fitness or attitude or a combination of both he coud look slow, easiy brushed of the ball in some games, and even ball control might not be up to what you'd expect at times.

On the point with backups, I can see your point but practically it may not always be easy to just downgrade a player to backup, some will want to move on. But it is more ideal to arrange it like you say so that backups are already well familiar with our team and we know what they can give us. And younger players that are in our system do seem to waste away, we are even getting youngsters from United now to take their place.
 
It's between this and th squad we had the back end of 13/14. Always been a big fan of Shane Long and wish we'd never sold him.
It would depend on how some of these new signings get on but you may well be right.

IMHO That squad we had in the 1st year of the prem was ace.
Myhill, Turner, Daws, Geo, King, Garcia, Barmby etc
But this squad is better..
