    Never mind Andy Carroll, I'm annoyed that Mark Noble is getting a call up. It has been an endless source of joy to me to tell people he's just not that good when they demand his inclusion.

    You should back that up with a framed shirt related bet.

    I'm already fed up of hearing about how much Pogba cost. Every single thing he does is going to be framed around the price. Still, when in Rome - he's better value for money than John Stones, on whom Ashley Williams is an upgrade.

    Manus, what the smurf is going on at Swansea? You okay?

    Yeah, I'm ready for the season to start now. This whole thing dragged on too long.

    Man Utd to have unassailable lead to the top of the Premiership by March.

    £20M for Ayew would be OK if Huw Jenkins was going to actually spend it on somebody decent, but he won't and instead we will get a few continental squad players who nobody has heard of for one or two million each, a 33 year old backup striker who will quickly turn out to be absolute toilet and leave next summer, and the rest of the money will mysteriously disappear (probably somewhere in Maryland). As for Ashley Williams, that is just beyond the pale shipping off your captain and best defender four days before the season starts, with no replacement. Amat will have to do a job at centre half but if he gets injured it's very much game over. We still need another right back, centre mid (should have got Allen back tbh) and I'll hold fire on judging Llorente until a few games in.

    I've watched the yankee takeover mainly through the gaps in my fingers. Proof positive that collaborative shared ownership of a football club just cannot happen in the modern Premier League. Luckily the Supporter's Trust retain their 21% stake but virtually everything I've read about these two blokes is that they're at best unconcerned about the club itself and its fans, and at worst, a couple of asset strippers. They're not Vincent Tans though, I suppose. I've heard nothing about any money coming our way anyway. We'll see what happens. If you ask me the most pressing issue at the moment is that we still have a guy as manager who probably can't quite figure out himself (let alone the fans) how he is still there. Huw can try to be too 'shrewd chairman who moves in mysterious ways' for his own good sometimes.

    Well no sooner do I write that does the Baston signing go through. I was ten years off with the 33-year-old quip but at a cool £15M you'd hope he nets some for us. It does worry me that the other team looking at him was Wolves, though...£12M from AshWills and £5M left from Ayew to sort out the back line.

    I guess they're doing all their buying now, before the pound drops even more.

    I think we have a good chance of winning the league, but I feel the Europa will mess us up a bit on that front. Thursday night football is such dross.
