Thanks for the memories Helder

Besiktas did indeed go out of the Europa league Quarter Finals, 6-7 on penalty shoot out.

Do try and keep up old boy.

Fact is that if Talisca came here he probably wouldn't have got much game time as we persevered with the legends in our midfield.

Lamberk will love it if all the Johnnie foreigners fecked off.

If DJ says their through, then their through, ok !

They deserve to go through after winning me a bet last night, didn't know they lost the shoot out. Hope I haven't shattered my image halfy. No statue for me either then

E&S saying Lambert is intent on signing Weimann at the end of the season. I do think he has done a decent job for us but he wouldn't be one I would go for permanently. He is a hard working forward that doesn't score many, and we have two of those already.

I think we should be aiming higher than the likes of Weimann, Stearman and Williamson given we aren't short of cash

One bookie is quoting odds of who Costa will sign for next season. Arsenal and Chelsea are joint third favourites, Monaco second favs and Albion favourites!

I just hope if he is going to go, they dont eff about and let it become the usual saga. If he's off, sort it out quickly and make sure we have the money to spend rather than waiting to the end of the window with no time or hanging on to him till Jan with him festering wanting a move.

I'd like to think that we can persuade him to stay, and we should be building a team around him, but I doubt somehow that will happen.

Just heard Ehiogu passed away, sad news, makes you realise how fragile life is.

Off to Southampton by all accounts for £25m.
