The last week has not been the greatest.

That is 'Emperor Hirohito speaking after Hiroshima' level of understatement.
We collectively say never again to such a close call with relegation and hope for signs of action to turn things around. At the moment I can't see any. Nothing seems to be happening regarding the end of season takeover the press banged on about and we have to suffer never ending stories of players leaving with nothing to excite us regarding players coming in. I guess the reality is that it's holiday time and nothing much will happen until the players return for pre season, so just a month or so of depressing media rumours to endure.

I may be completely wrong, but I wonder if the those at the club are aware of the magnitude of the work required this summer. We cannot limp along in the bargain basement.

Paul. Yes we can and we probably will!  As I suspect you realise.

Is Townsend not with the England squad?
Yep.

Midfielders
Ross Barkley (Everton), Fabian Delph (Aston Villa), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Adam Lallana (Liverpool), Ryan Mason (Tottenham Hotspur), James Milner (Manchester City), Raheem Sterling   (Liverpool), Andros Townsend (Tottenham Hotspur), Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal)

...obviously with Cleverley replacing Mason.

As Cleverley is on loan to us until the end of the season (June 30?), does he still count as a Villa player if he gets capped?

No. Already checked. His loan ran out on May 31st. He's a Man Utd player again till he signs for Everton when the transfer window opens.

I'd imagine ross Barkley is off to man city. Cleverly hardly a replacement but good luck to him

Barkley's just the new Rodwell. Massively overhyped.

Berkley has done well so far because he is a big bloke, despite his age. Now he needs to find a position, as he was massively underwhelming last season.

Everton will continue to job in midtable now that Martinez has managed to work his magic on their defence.

We have been limping along for a while now. Hopefully we can do a George Cowley and make our limp just disappear.

I don't understand this reference, so I'll stick with Keyser Soze.

OK we stank the place out but I still think being at Wembley in an FA cup final was great. An achievement not accomplished by 18 other PL teams. We just need to be there ot thereabout more often.

We've been linked with centre-back called Florentin Pogba for a reported fee of £2.5m

Ok but only if he brings the other Pogba along with him.

We should be able to get him as well, he's at Crawley so definitely in our price range ;)
