It's only today I've realised Bree actually exists.

Me too, I genuinly thought somebody had made a spelling slip about Cheese, I had no idea that he was an actual player.

Ditto. I thought it was another clever nickname for Lansbury.

Hourihane just scored a great goal for Barnsley apparently.

Great free kick. Note how with his team mate thye create a better angle for the shot

Also Barnsleys first goal was orchestrated from a swift short ball and cross from a free kick

Note to Steve Bruce. You dont just need Ross to bang it into row z from free kicks. variety is allowed

Fair place to Barnsley. They look a decent, young and hungry side. Everything we are not. Shame they have to selll their best players

Might as well confess that when I first saw him mentioned I thought it was the bloke from Norwich that we came close to signing.

Bruce has said we are close to two or three deals.

Need to get them over the line and get the team working together before next season, as a team we are still horseshit.

And will continue to be unless we rid the side of the weaknesses of the last few seasons. Sooner rather than later.

I'd reached the point if not wanting to get a striker in Jan because want midfield / defence sorted and the striker could have been the icing on top signing in the summer but now McCormack has burnt his bridges I'd love to see him and Ayew sold for what 16/17m and let Bruce go for striker he wants if that is Rhodes so be it

Modou Barrow swap for Ayew according to the Daily Star on Newsnow.

Can't say I know much about him - anyone seen him play?
Can't believe he is better than Ayew though, although maybe he will offer us more balance as an out and out winger.
The one I've always quite rated at Swansea is Montero and he doesn't seem to be getting much game time there at the moment.

I like barrow. Only seen him once or twice but the first time was when he came on (I think) in the 1-1 or 2-1 defeat against them a season or two back. he tore us apart. Saw him once or twice since then and he looks a tidy player with a fair bit of pace. I'd definitely get him in.
