Can someone help me out with this - nobody, and I mean nobody, wants Deadline Day. Everybody within football, every single manager or player who has commented on the subject, wants it changed so it ends before a professional game takes place. So why the fck does it still exist? Why isn't it changed?? Whose responsibility is it?
 
If we sold Haidara I'd be beyond happy. I'd do ****ing cartwheels naked across the town moor.

Bristol City will sign Willo, heard it here first. Get your money on :biggrin:

So today will define if Ashley was telling the truth about backing the club because if we don't add today we will have a tough season.
50m was just replacing cayabe,ba,Ben arfa but we are still threadbare who will struggle at the back and front.
The coaching squad and mclaren is a massive upgrade

From my understanding is that we are drip feeding the quality over a few windows, so expect £30M spent in January and another £40-50M spent next summer.

I don't think that is fair. I'm a massive critic of us sitting here with Colo and Haidara in our defence. It is blatantly not good enough to anyone with eyes. We have spent 50m though! You can't do it all at once. If we were to sell come January then of course, its one step forward, two steps back. At present though, progress has been made. We are still in for a tough season. Bar signing 6 or 7 and spending 60m-70m, that was always going to be the case.

However we have invested way more than thought we would. We could do with another 4 in a LB, CB, CM, ST - I think most would agree with that (bar DPP who likes watching League 1 left back the weirdo <whistle>) Realistically though, that is a hell of a lot of business when you need to shift players out too.
 
I'm seeing alot of reports you guys are looking to buy Alex Mowatt off us (reportedly for 8m) with Williamson going the other direction.

Just saying, please don't.

Like the sound of this kind of deal. We've been linked with your full back too. Bryam. How do you rate both in terms of PL football?

Why? Is Mowatt total **** or you don't want to see the shambolic Williamson disgrace the white shirt? If its the latter I can't ****ing blame you at all!

Byram has been playing further forward (as we lack out and out wingers). He was absolutely brilliant the first season he came through as a right back. We are buying wingers which will allow him to go back to RB. Only problem is we've started the season quite well and the current RB has been possible our most consistent performer in that so a lot of fans don't understand where he is gonna get in the team. Still talented and quite good going forward. Needs to work on his defensive game a bit.

Mowatt is very good imo. Goal scoring midfielder and was our best player last season. Very good in possession, has been deployed more as an attacking midfielder this season behind the striker but can equally play as a box-to-box player. Has a good left foot but has been lacking on the set-pieces so far this season.

No I don't want you to sign Mowatt. I have no real opinion of Williamson.

Interesting info cheers. Not sure about Bryam now, we have plenty of defenders who need to work on their defending <laugh>

Ellis's signature is missing from the bottom I think mate.....?

:)

On a serious note though, he rejected SAFC several times I think and even expressed his delight at rejecting the move last time. Are all the fans behind him?

People change their minds though and he will be judged at the end of the season now that he is a formal player. You guys needed firepower and at the end of the day he knows your club.

Yes all the fans are behind him ACS <ok>

We can put up with being rejected for Liverpool, not sure how we would cope if we were rejected for ****ing Derby County though <laugh>

Excellent if true. Hope we keep hold of perez and hsppy if Willo and Gouf leave.

Really pleased for Jobas too, glad he has found a decent club to go to.
 
West Ham seem to be signing absolutely everyone right now. The porn baron clearly splashing the cash.
