It's a bit early. I await the last minute hitch. Find out at the medical bruised his toe mowing the lawn 7 years ago and it can come back any minute. Something like that

If anyone sees a little plastic scouse fucker across the training fields riding a £150,000 race horse, then could they let us now as I have a sniper carefully hidden in the bushes ...goes by the name of Hackett...

Good signing if true. Let's get him and then tell Owen to do one!

Whelan off? Goodbye and good luck to him. Glad Whitehead will be staying.

Some good news finally. Adam hs impressed me when I've seen him play against us, particularly with his passing. Also gives us possibilities for long range shooting which is currently woeful. Only worry is that he won't get away with some of his bad tackles that he does with the Scousers.

Good player but cannot see where he will fit in. The first time he comes out of the cage or does a Hollywood pass into row 6 of the seddons, his stoke career under Pulis will be over.

It's all very exciting BUT I don't even consider what a player will or won't do for us until the ink is dry on the contract.

Think he will be a great signing. He couldn't cope with being at a bigger club last season, a club I might add that was in fookin turmoil.
He was really good against us at the Brit for Blackpool, and if TP can get him back on line again, then we'll have a real player.
Remember how everyone on here, and many in the media were wetting themselves about him only 18 months ago?

Currently FM we're in danger with ALL of our long range efforts. So some is an improvement.

I cannot understand why people are so happy for whelan to go. No, he's not the best but since we've been promoted our best spells have come with him in the side. It's a thankless task playing CM for us with little or no passing options as all the team are behind the ball, but at least it's a role whelan knows what's expected of him. Still do not see how Adam will fit in the team and to who he will be playing these amazing passes.

Central midfield. Left footed. Can pass. Fairly slow. Will take set pieces.
We've finally found a replacement for Nigel Gleghorn! Get in!

This signing is growing on me now it looks like happening - I'm actually intrigued to see how he's going to accommodate him. And surely he'll have to make some concessions? I'm not a massive Adam fan - but I'm sick to the back teeth of technically deficient plodders like Whitehead, Rory (as much as I love him) and Mo Edu. I'll be a little bit sad to see Whelan go - I think we've got much worse on the books

Still do not see how Adam will fit in the team and to who he will be playing these amazing passes. In some respects i agree, there was a twenty minute spell in the second half against arsenal where Glenn sat in the middle of the park and controlled the game. Very surprised to see him taken off when he was. That perhaps explains today's exit though.

Whelan could be good cover, but he's probably got a re-sale value that Deano doesn't have, he's a current international etc. I thought the same about Adam at first but I'm really hoping he signs this morning now. It would set the tone for the day on the Oatie, and get everyone revved up!

Looks like Chuck will be replacing Whelan as our long-range specialist 'do-you-remember-when-he-scored-that-one-from-outside-the-area-that-time' go-to man!
