Let's buy him back with the Fellaini money.

Hoof_It_Nev got a reaction from Sibdane in Sunderland (Away)
"Gareth Barry has scored four Premier League goals against the Black Cats, more than against any other side."
Stick him up front.

Hoof_It_Nev reacted to Romey 1878 in Loans - what drivel
You'd think we'd held Chelsea, City and Barca up at gunpoint so that we could steal these players from them. We paid for the privilege of having them here for a limited time period, and those clubs were only too willing to let them come.
If we'd signed three loan players who's values would only have been £6m but they'd had the same impact and we were challenging Arsenal for fourth then I assume Samuel would have no problem with it? Bullshit. He can cover it up with the FFP shit and them having a value of £50m all he likes but the only reason anyone has a problem with what's happened is that they've worked out extremely well for us. If Barry, Lukaku and Deulofeu had flopped and we were plodding a long mid-table, not upsetting the apple cart then there would be no outrage, no articles about how fucking unfair it is. In fact, there would probably be articles about how good we are giving these players a chance when they'd more than likely have been sat doing fuck all for the season.
Fuck Samuel. Fuck Wenger. Fuck them all.

I am now questioning whether he had a good game or not!

Hoof_It_Nev got a reaction from Sibdane in Martinez won't last the season
I always hear Moss from The IT Crowd...

Hoof_It_Nev got a reaction from nutmegwolf203 in Ross Barkley
Yeah thought this at the time, really should have fed Lukaku through. If he had missed that this thread would be a completely different vibe!

Hoof_It_Nev reacted to Ant1979 in FA Cup 2013-14 (the road to Wembley x2)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26220367
Martinez said: "The draw you always hope for is a home tie, but it doesn't matter - if you want to win the cup you have to be prepared to face everyone. We will have to be at our best but it is something to look forward to."
And he will set his team out to win, no negative tactics hoping to scrape a draw and a replay. Another Roberto quote from the ITV coverage today before kick off:
'I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees'
I like that one

Hoof_It_Nev got a reaction from Matt in Best 11 - so far
I do think Lukaku's dip in goals is due to the amount of service he is getting though, with Gerry and Barkley out he's not really had people spotting his runs.

Hoof_It_Nev got a reaction from Matt in Stevenage - FA Cup Fourth Round - Broadhall Way Stadium
Haha, made me chuckle on the BBC site - "Stevenage are hopeful winger Filipe Morais will be fit to face Everton after he picked up a dead leg."

Hoof_It_Nev reacted to Matt in Leighton Baines
Arteta had a pay rise for one season then sold (though for a poor fee in retrospect)
Felli had a pay rise for one season then sold (for crazy money)
Baines is being given a pay rise --> either here for life (additional 4.5 to 6m over the next 3-4 years for one of the best LB going = bargain) or being sold on for stupid money (giving us money to spend and improve the squad).
Im happy with either scenario to be honest. Very happy to keep him, but wont be too upset if he gets sold for an inflated fee - considering its going to be a summer transfer window after a World Cup, a great chance of his fee being even further inflated!

Hoof_It_Nev reacted to JoeQuince in January
I'm pretty sure at least Lukaku's up-front loan fee was pretty high. That seemed to be public knowledge, right?
Anyhow, there's nothing wrong with holding back the funds in January. As others have mentioned, the window is smaller, there are less players available, and you'll generally overpay. Loan signings (maybe with a view to permanent deals, come the end of the season) seem a great way of handling the January window. We don't NEED any new permanent signings right now, but if we could get a few potentially promising players in on loan in January to beef up the squad, just in case, then that would be great.
