Look at them!!!! Fucking look at our list of potential targets!!! To replace Mascherano, Kuyt and Aquilani.
We've been fucking bum raped somewhere here and I don't even remember being bought flowers.
It's gonna be like bedknobs and fucking broomsticks watching that motley bunch of fucking keystone cops shamble around our glorious home this year. Someone should tell Stevie and Nando to fucking save themselves while they still can!

It's not often I disagree with you Andrew, but in this case I think you are a little of beam, certainly as regards my feelings.
Dirk in all honesty is pretty average most of the time, and I was hoping he would be no more than a squad player this year. Aquilani, whist I agree he showed some signs of promise and was hoping to see something better of him this year, has hardly proved indispensable, and Mascher, well, a fan of his as I am , as others point out does have some limitations, and to be honest the little shit can fuck right off after his attitude over the last couple of days. The money can be spent better.
As I write Crouchy has just scored a hat-trick by the way.
I would not have been arsed about any of them going at a point when we could have spent the money, and secondly, some on your list that you deride, would have been quite acceptable alternatives
