Kurt for captain one day.

Pato? Bamford? Solanke?
Assuming we stick with one striker then 3 could be enough

For all of Jose's positives it was amazingly weary watching him this season. Even during pre season he didn't seem to have it going on. I'm aware he had personal issues due to his father's poor health, but after the achievement of winning the season José just didn't appear to have another season in him.
As for his potential move to Man Utd..... honestly I'm not all that fussed.
He was a glorious chapter of our past but we're looking at the future. It won't be the first time we've faced him competitively and I have serious doubts on how long he will last or how long they'll put up with the dross that he sometimes makes his players serve up in the name of winning. Yes the point is to win but I'd also like to be entertained where possible. United players must win with flair, just ask Van Gaal!!
Many fans will think this is heresy but José has always been about proving José is the best. The clubs success always felt a little like a byproduct. I'm not saying he didn't care about the club, but it was always José vs Arsenal, José vs City, etc
I wanted José to lead us onto another era of success, to prove our doubters wrong and go the distance, show everyone he could be the long serving type but it wasn't to be. He won't last at any club. By 2020 he'll be managing PSG.

The homegrown wouldn't be an issue until next season if we moved Cahill tomorrow since Matty is U21

Joey Barton on a free?

Big Blue - Don't give him the time. Whatever knowledge he has is ruined by dim witted or offensive comments about our own/former players. The guy is basically a troll

Silly season strikes again!!

Apparently were interested in 19yr old Barca winger Munir El Haddadi (Daily Star)
Anyone seen him play?

Are people on drugs today? Ricky f**king lambert?!

One positive to pique at chelsea - Shakira!

Linked with Seamus Coleman from Everton for £20mil.
Not impressed by this rumour personally. Don't think he's the quality we need and a right back isn't a priority at the moment

Sage,
You change your opinion more than the time changes, I feel.

He had a chance to stay last season under Jose's guidance but chose to go out on loan instead. I appreciate it was a world cup year but considering his performances in Brazil I wouldn't say it really helped him did it

Luckily we're not known for making stupid decisions

Maybe Jose is trying to get Lukaku to stay as back up striker?
To be fair I think its time to cut our losses on him, get our money and move onto the next talented youngster. At this point id rather have Bamford as our 3rd choice then Lukaku

JoeyN - totally agree. That's why I think the signing of our new left back is just as important as our new striker. Hazard needs to have someone that can drag those defenders out of position and also to cover Eden for his defensive responsibilities is the need arises.

Azpi wasn't allowed much freedom down the left flank last season. An attacking full back is vital for a player like Hazard. If two defenders are on him, they have to commit to either the attacking full back (getting to the byline) or stop Eden from cutting in. If one goes towards the full back, Eden had a 1 on 1. If they don't, the full back has no one marking him by the by line. 

Metro are reporting that we're planning on offering £10 million for Alex Song to replace Mikel and compete with Matic

At least he's doing something with his time!

There is something that I just don't like about him. Maybe its because of his association with one of our rivals but I just don't want him at the Bridge. Bit like when we were linked with Rooney, i appreciate the talent but think they're just c**ts!
