    He's probably got a better goalscoring record than Hosselu to be fair

    He didn't want to come here but we offered him too much to refuse. Was literally on strike from the second he arrived. For all the slagging off (some) people on here have given Rafa over signings, he has only signed players who wanted to play for the club. Hence the **** we have now. Also, not physical enough for the Premier League and needs space to play in and look good, just like Ben Arfa; the French League isn't all that.

    Historically, an awful lot of transfers get done right at the end of the transfer window so I'm not going to pass judgement until the window is closed. I beg your pardon, until the window "SLAMS SHUT". An experienced, quality striker is the absolute minimum to judge this window on and there's going to be quite a backlash if it doesn't happen.

    I think we will sign a striker. I think we will stay up regardless.

    Finally acknowledging Rafa's brilliance. It's very big of you to admit you were wrong. <applause>

    Fulham reject an £18m West Ham bid for Tom Cairney, and Preston reject an £8m Reading bid for Jordan Hugill, even though he's out of contract in the summer. Meanwhile, #NUFC are scraping together three buttons, a toffee wrapper and a pen top as a loan bid for Islam Slimani....

    No matter how often Ashley’s PR machine tries to portray him as an honest man who wants the best for nufc with insipid david craig interviews or weasel faced bullshit from Dennis Wise on sky. It will not fool ANY nufc fan***. Ashley and no one else is responsible for the mess


    *** Apart from Pouchy.

    Ahmed Musa rejoins CSKA Moscow on loan from Leicester. Wonder how this impacts any move for Slimani/Iheanacho
