The good doctor has tweeted a video of Ross McCormacks goals.....

Yes. I that. We must have him, it seems.

Diame gone to Newcastle.
Saw a thing on facebook saying we're offering Gestede + cash for Hernandez (Hull)

Alex Pritchard who Norwich have gazumped Brighton for would have been very useful and provided some missing creativity

Think he is a top replacement for Redmond. Really disappointed we were not in for him.

Bloke at work reckons we're in for Jedinak and Bamford.  Same file location?

That would be a lot more realistic.

It's highly doubtful that 1) Hernandez would be willing to drop down a division and 2) Hull would be willing to let Hernandez go, with a striker who looked woefully short of premier league class coming in as part of the deal.

I'd be happy to be wrong and it happen, as McCormack, Hernandez and Ayew would scare the shit out of championship defences. Just can't see it

Hernandez was worse for Hull in the PL than Rudy was for us.

Are we to take it that Traore will be leaving then?

Few seem to be factoring him into their likely teams, just thought I'd missed a story.

If they are fit and we get them in form and confident, McCormack, Ayew, Adama, Grealish, plus Amavi from LB, would rip defences at this level to shreds.

If they are played correctly and with a modicum of tactics I wholeheartedly agree.
But I cant help thinking its a big if.

Rudi and McCormack are made for each other. They will be the front 2 with Ayew behind before long I reckon.

If Amarvi is fit I think we can accommodate Gestede as he will be a threat from his crosses, if not then we have to play Bacuna as he's he only other player with a decent cross and frankly,  I'd rather not bother.
