If he is in London for the medical (if) then clearly he wants the move, any legal action is frankly pointless and this is over. Let's move on

fixed it for you

We may only lose by 9 wickets instead of 10, if i was a paying member, i'd be demanding action now - what's the lowest ever points total in CCD1?

Could they do any worse? Throw a few in, tell them to play without fear and see how they do

The 4 day team is the epitomy of everything that is wrong with 4 day cricket in this country - a team full of journeyman, old foreign players and kolpaks, dibbly dibbly bowlers who wouldnt scare my 10 yr old, a spinner who hasnt developed and batters who score at 1.5 an over The club needs to rip it up and start again - from the ground up - unless all they want to be is a 20-20 team

Sorry but we are a f..in embarrassment. . Great ground, wonderful facilities , utterly useless team and coaching. Bransgrove needs to clean house

I remember seeing him play Sunderland in that 8-0 and he was unreal that day, movement, vision, passing - but he definitely did go missing after xmas - not really sure why but if he can get back to that early season level with Mane, Jauanmi, Davis, JRod etc we'll have a lot of options

my goodness, could we be about to win a game? or we will find some way to foul it up!

Going to be in? Were already in ! Sadly were nailed on certs for relegation, team isnt good enough at this level - good one day team but very lacking at the longer format - but the 20/20 is where the money is so unless we can get a good youth system like Durham or Somerset its Kolpaks and handoff's back in Div 2

This Sterling wants to play in the CL as did Suarez and as do any top class players. Add in the fact he wants to go back to London and he'll be at Arsenal or Chelsea. They are living on 20 year old past glory - Rodgers had a great chance to use the money from Suarez to rebuild that team but he spunked it all on dross like Lovren (ha ha) Reed and Liebherr must be wetting themselves that they gave us 50m quid last summer ...

Daft question but isnt that basically what Charlie Austin is? Wondering if we'd spend 10m+ on a goal poacher if we already have one coming through - clearly we would want the proven experience but that's the club philosophy

Think he'll see first team action next year ?

Know he's been banging the goals in for the U18's this season and we signed him long term in March, but has anyone seen him live? Could he make the step up next year? What sort of forward is he? And whats the latest on Calum Slattery? Know he is highly rated and Arsenal are all over him

Shows we can play without Morgan, i thought Wanyama and Davis were really good in the central midfield role. Big Vic just marshalled Grealish and didnt give him a kick and Davis did what MS usually does, quick passing, good pressing etc The front 3 were nearly unplayable - i remember watching Long play that way against Sunderland in that wide role - shame he cant do that consistently as on his day he's top drawer. Pelle seems to be finding his best form again after, lets face it, really dropping off since new year Mane - well he just added 10m to his price tag and i can see vultures circling around him in the summer

Even if we lose a few i'd think Mane and J-Rod as the wide attacking midfielders will be great next year - if we could get Tadic back to where he was at the start of the year or find a real no 10 type , plus add a striker with movement such as Austin or Bamford then BOOM !

First 'signing' of the summer, in effect will be a new player for us next year and we've really missed him - hope he comes back the player he was that broke into the England team

Was impressed by Hesketh in the no 10 role last night - i'd play some of these lads on sat given how the 1st team have jacked it in

That was an utter simon hambles, players have given up for the season

This

question empahtically answered , dont want to come over all billy pessimistic so early but we already look like were struggling against higher class oppo

Personally i don't think you could begrudge MS a move this summer to a CL club, he has got on with it this year and there must have been a verbal agreement he could leave in 2015 - just make sure we get top dollar with a few of them getting in a bidding war J-Rod they shoud keep and sell Kelvin Davies to Liverpool for £15m :-)

The main problem we'll have is keeping hold of targets when the 'news' leaks out. Utd will be after a new back 4 and midfield, City a new team (bar Silva, Aguero and Kompany) and Arsenal the usual 10 lightweight fancy dans Wenger buys each year. Wet Sham will have a ton of money to throw around as well So whoever gets linked to us, any agent is going to leak it, see if there's any bites and the whole thing takes months and is excruciating as a fan Things i would wish for tho : 1. J-Rod comes back fit and fresh - basically a new signing if he stays 2. Janmaat and Krul from Newcastle - that club is a car crash under Ashley - rumours are all players basically want out 3. Bamford on loan 4. Austin or Ings (both unlikely imo) 5. Van Djik or Dragovic 6. Clasie I also wonder if the club see Harry Reed as a successor to Morgan ..

S Davis must be proper sh*t if first Pochettinho and then RK play him week in and week out Some of you haven't got the first clue ....

Worrying though that our dibby dobby seamers and front line spinner couldnt bowl them out on the 4th day. Unless pitches are green seamers i think we'll struggle to take 20 wickets against 1st Div sides

109/5 Need someone to stay with Carbs
