    There's a keeper coming free from Bournemouth I think. Looks a capable number two ;)

    Trouble is that he doesn't want to be No.2 which is why he went out on loan to Bournemouth in the first place

    I agree. Only the last game did I really start to ask a question in Clyne.

    I think Bertie has still been getting high up the pitch though, even without Tadic.hteat partnership when they were together though.

    And yet if he had stayed, he would have the opportunity now wouldn't he....

    I doubt he regrets his move...had a good season with a promotion. Better than not playing until the *** end of the season for us.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...ead-chase-for-QPR-striker-Charlie-Austin.html
    Telegraph article suggesting Newcastle and Saints are both after Charlie Austin (though the article is really more about QPR). Austin is just the kind of player we could have done with, especially towards the end of the season, but if no one else steps in (and no guarantee that won't happen) I wonder who he would prefer to play for. You'd think it was a no contest, but perhaps our fall away in form may suggest that Newcastle could be a better choice (based solely on their bigger club status). Of course....Newcastle could be relegated :) (sorry, did I smile there).

    Elia says he would like to make his move permanent this summer. I know people are having doubts about him, but all depends on what Koeman sees. Does he think he can improve with more PL experience? Is he better than any other back up player we could afford (bearing in mind that he is already here)?

    I don't think that
    I don't think that is true, we have a couple of youngsters in the youth that could step up and do a useful job as back up. I don't rate Elia, tries hard and apart from Newcastle game he hasn't overly impressed me.
    I think he will be gone.

    With Elia playing as a left winger, rather than coming in to the middle, Betrand is often isolated 1v1 with an attacker and he can get round him, Clyne is more often than not 1v2 due to no right winger, but Bertrand is definitely the better crosser

    Yes, I heard similiar from a WHU fan when he moved to QPR. Ok, maybe they have a relagation clause (probably not, knowing QPR) but ****e loads of £ for a "stand-in".

    Feel sad for Elia as a person....if I was manager we'd have hundreds of players because I couldn't ditch them. Luckily I am not the manager :)

    Rob Green - relegated 4 times from the premier league, must be some sort of record

    Hermann Hreidarsson can trump that with 5.

    Ramirez to Inter for £5m according to the Sun. Come on they can get at least one rumour right can't they?

    I really think we need a clear out this summer.
