The owners are proper grade a tossers but I do feel if we had actually started the season semi-well we'd of wrapped up a few more deals.

The blue-noses I work with all say he has major issues, just passing it on. Believe or not.
You're talking about a psychological addiction which is totally different and as a professional athlete I think it's highly unlikely he is a regular steroid user undetected

What, so they are planning to give compensation around £90- £100 million from last summer to now.

As I said, I don't particularly want Bilic to go, but clearly they've made their mind up, while ****ing the club over in the transfer window again, so it just needs to be done. We are a complete mess thanks to them c****.

Not that I want him particularly but Slav was told to sell players if he wanted Carvalho. Shipping out Feghouli and Snodgrass's wages would probably cover close to Barkley AND Carvalho.

I'm sure there's some kind of financial / contractual reason but you're right - their mind is made up and Slav is a dead man walking. It makes absolutely no sense to delay the decision in my eyes.

Where is this 19 player myth coming from?
1. Hart
2. Adrian
3. Reid
4. Cress
5. Fonte
6. Zaba
7. Ginge
8. Ogbonna
9. Byram
10. Masuaku
11. Arnautovic
12. Kouyate
13. Lanzini
14. Obiang
15. Noble
16. Antonio
17. Fernandes
18. Carroll
19. Chicha
20. Ayew
21. Sakho

So 21 senior players and that's being generous with Fernandes because he's still very raw and probably shouldn't be starting most weeks like he is here.

Sakho does not want to be here and will more than likely have his 'back injury' tomorrow.

Any manager would be nuts to work for this pair. Dyche will end up at a better club than us. I say a better club than us - I mean a better run club

Surely that news alone would be enough to make most people swallow their pride and admit they have to bite the bullet on this one and just pay what it takes to get it done??

Barkley probably been tapped up by another club or perhaps decided to wait it out a year and realise he can get a fat signing on fee and big wages if he moves on a free.

One other thing, if you think the support are ****ed off right now, imagine how some of the players are feeling. Especially one or two of the new ones.....
