    from ssn, nothing too shocking here. although does beg the question, if the move happens, are we just getting another cisse with de jong?

    Thanks for that Nav <ok>

    I've seen De Jong play like twice, but not once for his German outfit, so I can't really comment on his technical ability, but his seasonal stats speak of his form and I know his physique is alright for this league. I think he'd be of more value to the team than Cisse, because Cisse is f***ing useless when he's not scoring, whereas De Jong isn't all about the goals.

    Personally I think he'd make a better foil, than a lone front man, and I don't see us spending £10 million on a foil, when we play one up top. He'd be used like Shola, coming on to lump the ball to and try to link up with the pacey striker. I'd rather we spent £10 million elsewhere and just kept Shola to be honest <ok>

    I don't agree that Cabella would not be a replacement for Cabaye though. I can't see a scenario where both are at our club for 12 months.

    just noticed how clever that was JPF.
    very sneaky coming out with your love for the esteemed Shola like that. <ok>
    welcome to the Shola Fan Club.

    now where's Joe hiding with the new contract...

    Going to sign nobody. Remember when Sky said no one was leaving and we were trying to sign 4.
