One of my wife's colleagues just posted (on Facebook) a photo of Dimitri Payet ITSOTP, saying I would be happy with the signing of the "Frenchie from l'OM".

I went onto her FB page only to find he was wearing the Kit-Stealers top.

I don't think murdering her would be an over-reaction in this instance.

At least a good Hammering.

Lock her in an Iron mask.

I would,very much, like to hear we are interested in Rudi Gestede. He can hold up the ball well,win a lot in the air and score goals. He also has the Sherwood connection as he is currently a Blackburn player. That would raise my flagging spirits a few levels. I don't want to hear we are interested in a £500,000 rated nonentity such as Richards of Swansea.

It's been a while since Sherwood had anything to do with Blackburn. I don't get how there is any connection.

Er.. Sherwood played for them and Gestede currently plays for them!

So? It's not really a connection is it? They just both have played for the same club at some point. They haven't actually crossed paths like Andros Townsend. Those lazy journo links make sense (to them anyway).

It didn't make us more likely to sign Nottingham Forest players when O'Neill was manager, did it?

Rudy Gestede's had a really good 18 months for Blackburn, he's done well relauncing his career considering he was a non factor at Cardiff when they were in the prem.

Interesting player but think Blackburn want 7m for him and he wouldn't be a starter as long as Benteke is here.

Just heard a bizarre (amazing) stat, and maybe someone can verify. Sammy Khedira is moving to Juventus on a free and on transfer fees alone their midfield will cost less than Ross McCormack.

Well the only one that they paid money for was Vidal and he was about £9m. Pirlo, Khedira and Pogba were free and Marchisio came through their youth system.

So their midfield also cost less than we paid for Charles N'Zogbia.

So if sherwood Blackburn links means bringing in anyone. Who has played. For blackburn. Though really I narrow it down as he only wants winners flowers,le saux, colin hendry  and shearer are the only realistic options.

Astonishingly depressing for almost everyone and certainly us. At the same time superb by Juventus.
