    Fuck that.

    We need Spaniards and lots of them. Isco, Villa etc
    Wouldn't complain with Isco and Villa coming in but don't see it happening. Quite damning on the French league there though...have to say I'm envious of Newcastle's scouting system in France. Cabaye 4million, Ben Arfa 6million, Yanga-Mbiwa 6.5million all capped for France all better and fitter than diaby I'm afraid to say and all have had more impact on the teams they've played for than diaby. I honestly believe Yanga-Mbiwa will be excellent for them. 23 years old, captained his club since 21 and already looks the business as a CB and has obvious leadership qualities that we are literally crying out for in our current lot.

    If Begovic is behind Hart (the most overrated player in the history of everything) then he must be pretty shit.

    Wow - do you really feel Hart is over-rated? I'd be interested to hear your top 3 keepers in the prem perm boy?

    Not sure why people on here are splaffing about average players like Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Gouffran etc. They're not good enough to play for a side that wants to win trophies and we have options in our midfield that quite comfortably shit on them. As for Mbiwa, there's a reason no top club was interested in him.

    Don't see how people on here clamour for star quality and then wet themselves when average talents move to average teams.

    I didn't mention Gouffran...but how you can claim that Cabaye and Ben Arfa are average is beyond me. And I'm pretty sure you haven't seen enough of Mbwia to make that kind of judgement. Would have been more than happy with those 3 players in our squad...instead of Squillacci, Arshavin and Bendtner...just for example...that's if you want to talk about 'average' players!!

    I'm sure Arshavin and Denilson would 'shit on' Cabaye and Ben Arfa

    The prem is full of poor keepers. Hart isn't even better that the likes of Given.

    Would still like to hear your top 3, if you feel Hart is the most over-rated of all players.

    Based on this season, think it would look something like..
    1)Hart
    2)Begovic
    3) Cech
