    So now we are mathematically safe will Jose begin contract talks? or do you think it was a load of bullshit?

    Also on a different note, in the pub last night a mate of mine thinks were in the running for Karim Benzema. A cracking player IMO. hope its true.:wink:

    Jose - gone :(
    Benzema - would be great, but think wages may be an issue

    I think we need 7/8 players (an extra one if Jose does leave) - a RW, 2 strikers, a mid/long term replacement for Nolan (unless Vuckic is this - though I haven't seen anything special in him yet), a RB, and some squad players.

    Benzema and Ben Arfa hate each other, so we defo wont be going for him. Not that we would get him anyway.

    I think contract talks will start with Joey & Kevin signing and Jose leaving. We'll probably sign 1 bigish name and go for 5/6 squad players...

    He attacked the ref yesterday!

    Well not attacked, just pushed into, his team mates had to hold him back in the tunnel apparantly <laugh>

    Same on mine <yikes>

    If we could get Benzema on loan or even on a perm deal that would be UNREAL. Absolutely UNREAL. I'll love him. Wages would be a big issue though. I'll rather have him over Berbatov if I'm honest. Won't happen but we can dream.. <ok>

    Benzema will go to Arsenal I reckon, he's just what they need.

    I thought Benzema and Benny hate each other? Dont want Benzema at the expense of Benny but if they can play together it would be amazing

    Benzema's one of the highest rated strikers in Europe. As much as i'd love it there's zero chnce of him coming.

    Also Heskey as a coach with 20 attacking? <yikes>

    I thought so too, turns out they were just rumours, supposedly. He's only had a confirmed fight with Squillaci, and a known dispute with Deschamps.
