Everytime Quinn says Guzman I want to punch the screen.

Me too.

Although on the bright side, it takes the mind off him calling Weimann Wiseman.


It's an Irish thing. We're not great with names. During the World Cup Eamon Dunphy picked out a non-existant "Lorenzo" as the weak link in the Argentina back line.

I think Gary Neville is by far the best pundit on British television. Even Carragher isn't bad.
I can't believe you have ignored that fountain of insight the oh so interesting Michael Owen?

I'm wondering if the signing of Mr Fox may allow us to get serge gnabry in on loan!

I certainly don't want Ron to go but if he does perhaps Micah Richards could be a good addition to replace him younger hopefully hungrier and another strong player!

We have enough in that squad to challenge for 10th-12th and that's what Lambo needs to get out of them

The problems of being   filthy rich! I wonder if they will be prepared to let him come to us on loan till Jan and also subsidise his wages?

From BBC:
Striker Alvaro Negredo, 29, is set to be left out of Manchester City's Champions League squad as the Premier League champions attempt to meet Uefa's 16-man limit on overseas players for the tournament. (Manchester Evening News)

The one player we really need is Antonio Valencia. Out of our reach at the moment but if we are taken over it could happen if Van Gaal doesnt rate him.

Really?  I'm not sure I'll ever understand Lambert's thinking.  Go two seasons without an 'enforcer' then sign two in a window.

Kea out Palacios in makes some sense.

I think the thinking is we have been as watertight as the titanic after a fight with an iceberg the last 2 seasons, let's stop being so.
