    I'm sure there were a lot of promotion bonuses and the like involved for those two seasons. Any £x/week is probably best treated as a rough guide.

    I'm sure the finances took a knock from bonuses to players, Nigel and Nicola (I'd like to see what he got!!). The bonuses were probably seen as an incentive and a way to keep the actual wages down. A double promotion was hoped for rather than expected.

    Adel Taarabt to Fulham then. Odd. Didn't see that coming.

    Telegraph exclusive. Deal to complete tomorrow. Understood to be a loan with option to buy.

    Taarabt is an interesting player. On his day, when his application is good, he is a wonderful player and can be a real team man. However, there are other times when he goes missing and tries too much flashy, individual tricks, and is very frustrating. I think Fulham have done well in getting him though.

    Few others are saying Genoa in exchange for Granqvist.

    Plenty of foot skill but has poor vision, positioning, off-ball running. In all honesty, I don't think he's that good, unless he's having a great day. And he's hugely inconsistent, which means you have no idea which player is going to turn up.

    I like Taarabt but only in certain scenarios. In home games in which teams come looking for a draw, he can be the man to turn draws into wins. Against sides that don't set up so defensively he's more often than not a luxury that can't be afforded. Good signing for Fulham though. He's not just trickery, he really is capable of the sublime under the right conditions.

    Victor Chandeler have Taarabt to Fulham at 1/10 now. Tancredi Palmeri says he's not going to Genoa.

    Staying in london.

    SKY have the same bit weird they say loans don't count and slash their odds. Yet Telegraph say it's a loan.

    Means Fulham will have Ruiz, Taarabt and Dejagah behind Berbatov then.

    The most frustratingly inconsistent attacking midfield I can think of.

    I shall be disappointed if Mayuka goes on loan as I am getting fond of him....yes, I know that's not a valid reason to keep a player. Can't see this happening though, unless we sign another striker.

    Agree. We are very light up front if any long term injuries.
