  1. We'd certainly be stupid not to consider £30m for a player we paid about £7m for only a few months ago. I agree.

     

    But I also think it would do more damage than good by selling him. We have what looks to be a special talent, and the disappointment of him moving on will make the whole good vibe around the club of late totally detiriorate.

  2. Van Persie didn't score 20 goals a season until he was 25. Before then his top highest was 13. In his first season - 22 - he got 10 goals, 5 in the league. This for a top side.

    That would be because he used to be a winger.
  3. I just wish it would be released before the Summer holidays. By the time it comes out, I'll be having to spend most of my spare time on my dissertation for Uni so I doubt i'll get to play it as much as I would like to.

  4. Second In Form version of Benteke was released today on Ultimate Team. Itching to try him out as his silver IF was great for me. Gonna wait 'til Monday or Tuesday to buy him as his price is ridiculous at the minute.

  5. Finished watching all five seasons of Friday Night Lights yesterday. It's easily one of the best series I've watched, but I just felt a bit cheated by the ending and there were a few issues which I was dying to know more about.

     

    Like if Smash actually made it to the NFL. I was constantly waiting for news on how he was doing at Texas A&M but all we got was a snippet of him on the telly once or twice playing for the Aggies.

     

     

     

  6. I ate a dodgy Tuna sandwich at the school canteen one afternoon during lunch hour. Halfway through the next lesson, I felt properly awful and knew I was gonna hurl eventually. My girlfriend at the time was sitting next to me and she commented on how I looked a shade of green in the face. I tried to hold it in as long as possible until I couldn't any longer and got up to ask the teacher if I could get a note to go to the toilet, as I was gonna be sick. By then though it was too late and I threw up all over my teacher's nice new dress, in front of a class of about 15.

  7. I'd be very very surprised if we even got an offer of about £25m for us to be able to turn down. Smart clubs don't splash out on a striker after one good season. Look at Papiss Cisse - I know he was only at Newcastle since January but still.

     

    The only time I can remember it happening was Andy Carroll, and we all know how that tuned out for Liverpool.

     

    I think teams will want to see how he does in his second season before committing a massive amount of money for his signature yet.

  8. I doubt he would gamble on a move right before a World Cup. I think he'll stay. He tweeted as much a few weeks ago but he deleted it shortly after.

     

    Spurs are in negotiations with Leandro Damiao according to his club Internacional, so it looks like they prefer him anyway.

  9. He always looks really uncomfortable, especially when passing. Not his biggest fan, but he played really well last night and he breaks up play well. That challenge on Sessegnon in the first half sticks in the mind.

  10. At the risk of rustling a few feathers, credit has to be given to Randy for sticking with him. I'm not Randy's biggest fan by any means, but whether through fiscal constraints or personal discretion, at the moment it looks as if he has made the right call.

  11. Guzan - £600k from the MLS

    Bennett - £2.75m from the Championship

    Baker - Academy

    Vlaar - £3.2m from the Eredivisie

    Lowton - £3m from League 1

    Delph - £8m from League 1

    Westwood - £2m from League 2

    Sylla - £2m from Ligue 2

    Agbonlahor - Academy

    Weimann - Academy

    Benteke - £7m from the Belgian Pro League

     

    Not bad really.

     

    I think you'll find that a few were even cheaper. I remember one journo saying that the prices of Westwood and Lowton were less than being made out in the wider media.

  13. I would like us to move him on .Whether there is another team willing to take him is another thing. Maybe one of the newly promoted teams would gamble on him.
