Since German managers are doing quite good, how about Heiko Vogel, currently at Bayern Munich 2. Apperantly free by mutual consent after this season...

Grealish looking great, changing the game :-)

Im feeling optimistic, if the rumours about RDM getting his preferred staff (Clark and the Muscles dude from Inter), i think they have all been given a reason too trust in the new owners plan for the furure. I think a big change is needed and a lot of things needs too be built from the ground up, so they definately have a lot of work to do.

I think he might bring some much needed professianalism and the right kind of experience and work ethics to the squad. What kind of a player he is now we Just dont know but it looks like he wants to be a part of a solution.

Is he the Phantom?

I would be happy with Bob Bradley, i dont think there is anyone bether available for the moment.

We should get Bob Bradley in as manager, he is awesome at building teams from almost Nothing. He lost almost his whole Stabaek team before the season and had literally no budget to buy but is still in second place Just behind Rosenborg, he is the One to get the best from the players we have.

I think he will fit us good in pair with Vlaar. His experience and style of play is to get stuck in and this will give Vlaar a chance to control the defence better. As long as Vlaar is fit, Senderos suits us better then Hangeland who would be too simular too Vlaar. This also propably will mean that we will have an experienced cb at hand for each game and not having to burden Baker and Clark with so much responsibility each game. CB often have their best years around 27-31 when they are experienced and know how too read the game and before they loose too much of speed and strength.

Havent Real Madrid sold their stadium and then afterwards been gifted it back twice to loose some of their debt?

I just really want us to compete again and to be exciting to watch. A flock of seagulls could own the club if they were capable of giving us a team to be proud of again.

Apparently the owners have sold the chairs and let Defoe out of the hotelroom

I thonk it is a long time plan/investment and if we get relegated we get relegated, long time plan is still on. I think the plan is to completely balance the books and build again from scratch. It is a big gamble and i think the most worrying is that if we do get relegated and have a great season in the championship, players doing well, then clubs in the premier league will come sniffing around and again our best players will be leaving and we are back to where we are now but in the championship. Theres no free lunch in the championship either, will be a long way back to the premier league...

This transfer window will be very deciding for the future of the club. But exciting at the same time, if Lambert does not add experience and ability espescially in defence and midfield he has to be the ballsiest, calmest, baddest mother of all times... If the money is available ofcouse. Our team desperately needs a couple of leaders on the pitch, someone with a winning mentality who can lift them.

Just finished my leukemia treatment, 1233 days of chemotherapy finished To those of you being at every game, keep up the good work supporting Stan, i get chills every time i watch a game on the telly and see you guys standinding up at the 19th minute.

I am looking forward to see Westwood in action, if the things i have red about him is true then he might fit our team very well.

Mistakes will always be made, and i think he is the kind of player that learns from his... Newcastles next attack and he was chasing like a pitbull He worked his ass off against Newcastle, great player to have in our team.

I think we need a player that has his vision and capability to do something unexpected every now and then. I dont think we really should judge him yet as he hasnt really been getting the chance to shine... Give him some time and a stable squad around him so that he and the rest of the attack can learn each others movements and i am sure he will be immense.

Watched my first game this season yesterday and Lowton played like he had played in the PL a long time. Actally looked lika a complete fullback and will propably just get better. If he is setting the standard for what the others we have bought then i think we will have a good season and will definately be on our way to build a great team again.

Watched a rerun late last night, i am very pleased and the team played very well. We were agressive all over the pitch, even Ireland Guzan had an amazing game and i think Gabby proved why he put fear in the opponents some years ago and looked to be more friend with the ball... Looking forward to this season now Ahmadi was great, bannan looked comfortable on the ball, Vlaar and Lowton finding their place, impressed by Lowton looked like he had played in the PL for a long time. At times we lost the ball quite easy but its still early, PL is really changing our style and i love it... Thought Bent was misused a bit like a target man sometimes but thats more because a lack of option, he looked more dangerous together with Gabby when he got to position himself more for the finishing. But Bent is getting there too, i think we are forgetting he has been injured for a while as well. I`m thinkin we suddenly are having options up front and can change it up a bit, maybe Bent and Benteke as strikers with Gabby and Ireland behind them and Ahmadi, Westwood/Bannan in more holding positions...

Essien to Everton on loan...

Westwood is a small defencive midfielder? Thought i red it somewhere... The championship is a fast and tough league, if he has the technical skills he might be a gem?

Saw a rumour that we were back in for Dempsey...

Everton seems to be looking for a midfielder...so more competition then... Rumours says Dempsey has agreed personal terms with Liverpool... Spurs having multiple on the way in aswell, it will be a long way to the top... I believe PL knows what he is doing but it would be nice with a signing showing more intent than bottom half... I still believe building for the future is the right way but i am concerned we will be struggling at the bottom of the table and then being ripped of all talent if we go down...

So Benteke in, rumours is that we are still in for Dempsey but he is holding on for Liverpool and that Spurs are interested also... If we would get in a fighter, leader in the middle id be quite happy, Parker or someone with the same spirit on the pitch able to get his team mates going...

Problem isnt really our spending, it is all the other clubs spending that is worrying me. Swansea as an example is buying known highly rated players and so is everyone else. Rumours is that Sturridge, Dempsey and Walcott are going to Liverpool.... Competition is getting tough and we need some more bite and muscles in our team IMO. Oh, by the way rumours here in norway that Carew is joining Southampton...
