Nothing more than to bring the thread back on topic. He's currently away with the rest of the squad (minus Sissoko) in Ireland. I'll be joining them on Saturday for our first game.
@Greg what is that Wijnaldum pic supposed to signify?
They are both pretty much despised by the majority of our fan base. Wijnaldum offers nothing in general play but will pop up with goals in mini spells then go missing and do nothing for 10 games. Sissoko's power and directness can be an asset but he is often accused of being lazy and unmotivated. Then again anyone would be like that being managed by clowns like Pardew and McClaren. He was much improved under Rafa. All in all we don't have any need or desire to sell either so unless somebody comes up with silly money they will both have to stay.
Everton have been showing strong interest apparently...
Well yeah,the exact same scenario we've had every year of trying to get players who would improve the team but have to wait until the CL level clubs have done their business before seeing what's left. Is it really a coincidence we appear to be getting our players in earlier now we have CL to offer? Hmmm....That's all they've doing this summer. Hart, Pelle, Scheiderlin etc.

Can't agree with that myself. They have a new investor with a lot of cash to spend and a very good manager who will want quality players.....In their case I think it's more of a West Ham approach. Fake interest in every decent player going to appease fans, then say you tried your best.

We don't really know how much he has or is willing to spend. They do have a very average manager who loves splashing it though.
