Sounded to me as if West Ham have already done the deal on Shorey so watch this space as they say. I personally think McCartney has done nothing wrong,but given our injury list which is a joke,I would sign him quick! Shorey is slightly better than McCartney so it must be a good deal in my oppinion.

Highlights for me: + Everyone has the same injuries. I, for one, am suspicious of this. Lets hope there is some analysis of what/when/how they happened. I'd hate for us to blight the season with avoidable and unecessary injuries. + The rumour mill throwing up exotic and unobtainable players. I'd hate us to mirror Spurs' behaviour of a few years ago and pitch in for every big name regardless. We'll be a laughing stock (as they were/are). + McCartney is our best player thus far (Mullins not far behind frankly!) He has responded to the challenge and played out of his skin. We do need cover and I expect a signing in Jan but I think £5m for Shorey is beyound whats required - I wonder if a 6 month loan or free transfer until next summer might tide us over. + One last thing - Ashton contract situation. I don't recall what length of contract he is on and I do remember he was quick to say he'd leave if we went down last year. Any thoughts on when/if we cash in on him (assuming he doesn't sign an extension)? Really interesting thread. Highlights for me:

If Arsenal win a trphy this year and god forbid Spurs turn up a shock in the UEAFA I wonder the pressure will make the egg crack, we will not attract CL players whilst Alans there. Also Mullins he's ok but can you see him doing the business against the likes of european competion. Lets loose the empathetic sad loyalty for an average player. West ham menatality lives on.
