    Ha, I used to change it every time we switched managers but it turned into a full time job so I've stuck with Moyes ever since

    There’s not that much that scares me

    villa - can’t buy til they sell Martinez

    Bournemouth - yes, but they’ve apparently got a lot of options so in no hurry

    galatasaray - yeah, but they’ve also have a list of choices

    somewhere said clubs in Germany - unless it’s one of the big 3/4 I don’t see it

    Strasbourg - he said he’s keeping options open

    were the only team really pushing for him

    That was me.

    Nads is leftover from ‘Gustavos Gonads’ so I gave up at Poyet ha

    Was name/bodypart combos.

    He’s a good keeper, not saying he’s **** or owt.

    We are looking at keepers who are at or above his level and younger though.

    Take him if he fetches his brother like.

    If he's a downgrade from Meret lets just sign Meret.

    I also don’t think Sacha of all journos would report on a five year deal and the fee being around €25m if it wasn’t close to some degree for me.

    Maybe it wrong but I don’t know like just would be strange to me.

    I reckon we've offered him a 5 year deal and broadly agreed a fee with Chelsea but he's "waiting and seeing" what other offers he might get.

    Just my current gut feeling on what's happening. It might change in 5 minutes.

    We maybe would have went for Kepa but the salary is crazy.

    Fee is robbery.

    Reckons they haven’t made an approach yet but he’s one of many on their list

    Preparing gala for Petrovic to go elsewhere?

    Sommer would be a cracking signing for them

    Dan Neil on his day, can run games. He's one of our best young products for decades and with good midfielders and defenders around him, he will improve. Losing him would be hugely regrettable; we need depth in midfield to cope with injuries, Afcon etc, and he's years ahead of his prime yet.

    100% with you mate. We rip the heart out of the side we are in trouble, one way or another.

    Excitement about new players is fine. I am with it for some. What I dont get is the certainty that some of our existing team cant play Prem. There are risks with every new player we sign not handling it tbh. Until they do it we cant be certain.

    Patto is an interesting point. To date has he let us down? Has he had big games? He had of courss had rough times, young goalies often do tbf. Will he be much better behind a better back line? Most keepers often are tbh. Saying he cant play prem doesnt sit well with me. I think we can sign someone better and more ready of course, but that is true of Mayenda anf others too. I am all for holding onto the team spirit we had last season.

    Tbf I think petrovic's choice will be between whatever prem teams get involved.

    Don't think anybody disagrees with this. Neil will only leave if he wants to.

    And anyone he’s always been a superb keeper.

    Just had a stunning season for Inter he makes so many implausible saves.
