    The fact is Ben Arfa is world class and we only got him because he had his leg broken. He would have lit up the league here on loan and got a better offer. We sold Nolan, Barton and got better players but if you mouses brains think we will be able to repeat this if we sell Tiote, Benny etc I'm simply saying sorry but I think not. What concerns me now is that Ashly etc will think the same. If it was this easy every club would be doing it. This season and our dealings have been a success and we shouldn't keep gambling in my opinion.

    - what about Tiote, Collocini, Krul, Saylor, Raylor, Ben Arfa, Gutierrez ? All absolutely class for us this season and arguably our best players from last years lot. Nolan, Barton and Enrique were all good, but the best ? Probably not. Only Enrique would have got into this team consistently, Barton has hardly set QPR alight and West Ham aren't doing as well in the championship as Nolan and The Toon did.

    In fact, I think our best players will stay, just like they have through the last couple of windows, and those in decline, who are a liability or who plainly don't want to be here will be moved on and replaced by equal if not better players.
