Agreed, but if he plays will Roy use him in his new central role? Picking Carrick is a strange one, just come back from longish injury and when he's picked him for the squad in the past, he's hardly ever played him. Maybe Roy has serious doubts about Wilshere in the DM role...

What are these essentials? IMO the main essential to be successful in the modern game is an owner with deep pockets who's willing to put his hands in them, and/or a large commercial revenue stream, neither of which Newcastle have got.

Also helps not to sell your best player and not replace him e.g. Cabaye...

Don't know what papers you were reading but City and their fans (lack of) got an absolute pasting from the media...

Well at least they have a striker who can score goals, perhaps your shower might want to stick in a ridiculous bid and add him to the the other players you've over paid for?

Let's face it you need a sense of humour to support the rags at the moment don't you? All that money spent and City waving down at you.

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.

      Looking to buy or adopt a dog

      By LondonFermentation · Posted

      I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.

      @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage

      If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
