It just shows what a mental day it's been when I question should we sign Mata.

I apologise to everyone, I can't cope :)

They'd never sell to us anyway...

Baines? The same Baines that gets homesick and purpotedly doesn't want to leave the North?

Yeah. K.

I'm surprised we'd have the front to make an offer for Mata. Wonder what made us think that they'd entertain the idea? Fascinating.

Can't believe I'm even typing this, but do we need Mata?

Yes he's brilliant, but aren't there other positions that we should improve ahead of his?

Am I right in thinking he'd compete with Lamela, Eriksen, Chadli, Lennon and Townsend or would he play elsewhere?

put him left back we dont do defending

For argument's sake let's presume we're talking post Paulinho and Soldado signing.

I wonder how many people would happily swap back all our players signed since then and forfeit the potential possibility of few more coming in... In return for Bale staying and being 100% committed (for another season)?

I honestly don't think I would.

Ihe does not get enough game time prior to the World Cup he will leave in January. This is a pre-emptive strike.

If we signed Baines then Rose would want to leave. Rose is a northern lad. Rose + cash for Baines. We get an upgrade, they get an exciting young replacement Martinez would probably like. We keep Bae as back up cos he cant pass a medical Everyone's a winner. (Except Bae).

Definitely wouldn't - we are a much stronger, balanced team and squad-just look a the team that played Thursday and the team that plays Sunday- lots of changes I expect but both will be good strong teams
