They're 5/2 odds on to sign Deeney.

Adebayor?! You're kidding, right? I thought he was stranded on some deserted island going doolally with Randy Lerner and the Shummanites.

Albion looking to bring in Adebayor if they can't get a striker. Could be an interesting season.

Ok, so that’s one relegation slot sorted then.

I don't Barkley at all, if he didn't score the odd screamer he'd be a bit part player at somewhere like Burnley or Brighton. On tonight's showing I'd rather see Ramsey get 20 appearances than pay £120k a week to watch Barkley do fuck all week after week.
At last , some sense about the muscle man.
I thought those days of signing over rated overpaid rejects from other clubs was over.

Randy and the Shummanites eh?

I well remember the toe-tapper 'Echo Beach'

A fine popular music combo.

Pretty much £1m to have him cover up front when we were desperate then. Good luck to him, hope he scores for fun and has a great career.

Read there is interest in El Ghazi on loan too. Such an enigma of a player, has all the talent to be excellent but so very rarely engaged it. Done a good job for us getting us up then scoring a few along the way last season, but if we do get another wide option in he's got to be the next out the door.

I wonder if we'll lose all those Tanzanians who started following us on twitter now.

El Ghazi certainly is a weird one. He reminds me of myself when I had pretensions of being a writer; I'd write a good paragraph and then sit back and admire it for an hour rather than cracking on and getting the job done. He beats a couple of defenders and then looks like he thinks he's done enough, despite the ball flying high above the opposition's net.

I thought he was the one negative of last night.  He didn't play well at all.

Agreed. The commentator on the stream I was watching kept saying what a 'sharp' game he'd had. I only watched the second half but I thought he wasted good positions time and time again.

Agree. Picked wrong pass time and time again. Shot when a better option was on. Looked to me like he was trying to do too much and have a worldy game to try and get back into side. Firmly winger number 4 option now
