Bastards. This is what happens when I take a few hours personal time to unwind. I come back to this shit.

Every Argentinian that's ever breathed has been named…...It's this argentinian, it's that argentinian, i'd bet 12 of my testicles that one or two of you have even googled "argentinian footballers' to find a name to throw into the hat. Lets be clear here, i've flicked bogies across the office that have more brains than what some of you are showing.

Come on, do the noble thing. Put yourselves into some sort of voluntary care before you start to harm others.

'Kin hell……...Time to turn it in now. No more guessing, no more spamming. ****s.

Ali Z on Coys with a couple of posts - if not appropriate, I'll delete:

Re Schneiderlin:

Totally still think he is, Trix will know more from his end but we are confident.

More transfers:

As Trix will confirm had a message earlier saying we are not Done daniel trying to something else, my guess would be a LWF

I'm very much in the camp that we need a LWF so I hope Ali G's suspicion is correct.

If Lamela gets injured, we're left with nobody who can add some trickery and pace through the middle. Not having a player like that would massively alter our system and that's far from ideal. Same reason I believe we will get MS and move someone like Holtby on as if Capoue gets injured, we would be relying on just Bentaleb.

No, everyone is picking every Argentinian under the sun after the 'Argie invasion' quote from one of the itk's. Forget which one and can't be bothered to go through 25 pages to find the quote. But we'll now have 3 days of people going mental with the thought of Tevez and Lavezzi turning up in Spurs shirts over the weekend only to find out he was refering to the Fazio signing after all.

Already been noted that he wasn't.

Likelihood is nothing'll happen, but it's entertaining to give ourselves some hope. Shouldn't be forgotten that thus far this is a very successful window. No massive names, but certainly strengthened in our weakest areas.

Got a feeling the Beast might be staying now.

So with a deep-lying playmaker in MS being worked on (currently Bentaleb), and a LWF being sought (currently Chadli), it really does look like Poch wants two proper players for every position.

I can't remember our side looking this well balanced before.

Lots of versatility in there too.

AT out, a LWF first-teamer option in.

You've not seen MS' recent tweet then?

Completely agree. Re my two players/position post above, he's incredible cover/competition for Capoue's DM place. (Dembele, Paulinho, Bentaleb just aren't good enough as enforcers against top competition. Although, I did read that Fazio has often played at DM before).

Hopefully Sandro stays fit now he's not necessarily first choice every game.

Giancarlo Gallifuoco has moved to Swansea on a permanent deal. Bit worried for him that it's only a one year contract though.
