    Hang on to your hats for this one: apparently we've made an enquiry about Steven Pienaar. Seems quite ambitious!

    One of the agents on twitter. I know they're not always reliable but this seems plausible. He's quality, he's available for a reasonable fee, obviously he's likely to go to Everton but if for some reason they can't scrape the cash together, he might be amenable to a move to us (if only to get away from spurs).

    Wages could be an issue though.

    I see Somen Tchoyi has been released by WBA, looked a real handful when I saw him play last year, will probably end up somewhere abroad though I would imagine.

    He is absolutely nothing like Prutton?

    I really rate Trotter, think he'd be a fantastic signing for us - pace and power is something our side severely lacks, all over the pitch really... Only 23 as well.

    I still blame Prutts for getting us relegated from the Prem.

    Spot on, and NA didn`t rate Hooper as technically the best player he had worked with for nothing.

    Hahahahaha. While this seems absolutely outrageous, I feel I should point out that we have no idea how much money will be available this season. Might be lots.

    Well, I don't know as we didn't sign him, and I haven't seen him play. That's like saying how many goals would Lambert have scored in the SPL, you can only guess. How many goals would Miku have scored in Seria A? By the way he plays for Getafe and scored 12 goals last season.

    I hope he does end up somewhere/anywhere else.

    Miku?

    Do you mean Michu, the lad we've been linked with? If so he plays for Rayo Vallecano and he scored 15 in 37 from midfield.

    Miku is a completely different player who does indeed play for Getafe

    My point was as sharps role is to score goals he has done very well since settling in (undoubtedly a factor in getting us over the line). You seemed very certain that hooper was better so my point was that if he was better surely he would scored even more goals which I would say is unlikely. Sure he may have other assests I dont know much about him, but as Sharp is a poacher I would be impressed if Hooper was 'much better' at it than him.

    The Pienaar rumour is absolutely not true. The rumour originated from a parody-agent account on twitter, which then got picked up on by other 'agents'.

    Eden Hazard has a brother called Thorgan who plays for Lens. They have been relegated to Ligue 2, so I think we should get him. He is a similar type of player to his brother and is a couple of years younger. Eden has actually been quoted as saying that he thinks Thorgan is the better player.

    The one I read it on is not a parody, might be fake but it's not a parody. Anyway, even if there's no truth in it (and I never claimed to know), it's a fun rumour, and as I said, it is plausible.

    Doubt he's as good, but might be worth a look. I bet every club in Europe will be interested because of his brother though.
