    Argyle will soon have a team of unpronounceable players names.......whoever prints the names on the shirts will demand a pay rise soon.

    Cissoko has left Argyle....he has been bought by Sheffield W directly from Toulouse.

    If we’re going to play this 3:4:2:1 shape, which we did under Schumacher, then there’s no real role for Cissoko. A shame because at his best he’s a real handful but it’s the team that matters.

    I don't see why we need a DM:

    Randell has been doing OK there and his long passing is such that he's ideal in a quarter-back type of position. Houghton has come back into the team and in my opinion done really well. Hopefully Joe Edwards will be fit soon and that's where he started his career. We have Gyabi (I presume).

    If you ask me, we need another AM. Neither Al Hajj nor Baidoo are tearing up trees there.

    INCOMING on a three and half year deal.

    Malachi Boateng 22 year old...6ft 2in defensive midfielder from Hearts.

    Stats look average but Miron Muslic has seen him play against his old club Cercle Brugge and thinks he is the sort of player he requires for midfield.

    Watched some of the Liverpool v Spurs game tonight.

    I might have to rearrange the furniture on Sunday.....so that I can watch the match from behind the safety of my settee.

    Half page FA Cup article about Argyle legend Tommy Tynan in todays Daily Express (7thFeb).

    Talking about his time in Liverpool and in Plymouth and that he is genuinely one of the few people who can wear a half and half scarf.

    Talked about his taxi driving experiences and picking up famous people from the Theatre Royal with whom he had a contract .....people such as the Chuckle Brothers...Honor Blackman.....now retired but still living in the Devon area he is a regular visitor to Home Park and will be doing the half-time draw.

    He reckons that Argyle could do a surprise and he will watch the match without too much stress whoever wins.

    Watching Man U v Leicester game.
    Never pass forward when you can pass backwards seems to be the rule.
    Sweeper keepers half way up the pitch at times
    On the edge of the oppositions box and they still pass back to the keeper.
    Leicester just scored so it might improve.

    I don't know, how many reserves do you think we have?

    Another fantastic payday for Argyle. This is bound to be televised and their ground takes a couple of thousand more than ours. Would have been nice to have another scalp at Home Park though. We have beaten one Prem side away and THE Prem side at home so I don't see why we should be worried about anyone.

    Even the bookies got it wrong on Sunday. Son has a flutter online and he had a spare £3 in his account so he bunged it on Argyle to win. The odds were 17/1 in a two horse race. I just hope there were loads of stupid Argyle supporters who thought what the hell and took a small wager on their team.

    What's going on with John Eustace....at present manager of 6th placed Blackburn R......has been given permission to talk to Derby C 22nd placed over their vacancy for a manager.

    That the last thing we need Derby kicking on with a new manager.

    Miron Muslic has brought in Austrian Hubert Auer to be set piece coach......an area that we have been devoid of goals.
