If Stoke get Palacios and Jenas, and we sign no one today, with a squad as painfully thin as ours, we should be looking for a new CEO to run the football side, this summer has been a total balls up

Fulham and Stoke in for Hutton and Jenas.

I don't want Jenas, but we absolutely must sign a central midfield player.

Stoke are a more ambitious club than us right now. In Europe, and a decent squad. Palacios and Jenas would improve them.

I am stunned that after the anyone that goes will be replaced comment, we have seen Young, Makoun and Hogg go, and no one come.


add weimann to that and lichaj long term injured and thats 5 down in a week.

I think it's 'sell to buy' but don't bust a gut on the latter - just fucking sell ...

Sky also reporting that we're only interested in Jenas on loan and Everton who allegedly have even less money than us have managed to finance a deal for Drenthe???

fuck me. Haven't got on all day and I see we're linked with Jenas for the 15th straight summer. I hope something happens in the next 6 hours or it's going to miserable on here. I'm beginning to understand how Everton fans feel every window. Didn't see it being this bad.

villa enquired about hutton but never followed it up, spurs accepted £4m bid from fulham for hutton.

villa also enquired about jenas and while spurs looked favourably at it they are not sure jenas fancies villa.

I seem to simply just be watching and shaking my head in disbelief at the moment.

Well McL said he would sign one last player a couple of weeks ago. He just did not say when he'd come to VP.

Which contradicts the reports of him being on his way down to us for talks.  I think it's a 'wait and see' on Hutton.

You wouldn't blame Jenas really would you. Bent must really be wondering what the hell he has done moving to us??

Kendrick's tweeting that Hutton's at BH for a medical. Fulham got Grygera (spelling) from Juve on a free.

Two full-backs in then...

How have we got to the stage where Stoke look to be a better bet than Villa?  Jesus H Christ.

Can't Stoke offer european football this season.

We can't. The fact is Stoke could be a more desirable move than us as the moment. Players just see a mass exodus from villa park and maybe think this isn't the place to be.
