It's not Siem is it though?

We have been linked with signing him but at the moment his brother Luuk is wearing our colours. He's actually registered an assist as well - first thing he's done in ages.

Would be nice if Pardew left, but it's not happening for a while
Dull, miserable football, strange tactic choices (today we played 3-5-2, 3-4-3, 4-5-1 and 4-4-2 all in the space of 45 minutes) and players playing out of position literally every week.
Number 1
Pardew has always picked players out of position - Joey Barton as a right-winger (although that was started by Hughton), Jonas Gutierrez in CM, Ba and Cisse as wingers, Sissoko and Gouffran in what seems to be a new position every week. But I think this is the first time I've seen what feels like a whole team out of position.
Number 1
If by some miracle, we convince Remy to stay, then things might look better for us, but I severely doubt he will stay. He probably won't be the only first team leaver either.
So, who should we buy?

Remy won't stay and I'd be disappointed if we sign De Jong. I can see possibly Krul heading out of the door, Ben Arfa reportedly unhappy who else? Debeauty? So potentially we need 6-7 players, on the grounds we already need about 5!
I sound like captain negative here but as it stands I don't imagine many players fancy the challenge, at least not players playing in a top division somewhere

If Norwich get relegated we should try for Leroy Fer, Nathan Redmond and possibly Gary Hooper. Maybe not RvW and his 0 goals in six months record.
I doubt Debuchy will stay and as Ben Arfa and Pardew don't seem to like one another, the player will probably leave.

My #ITK sources today informed me that Pardew is getting sacked when Ashley is back from his holiday. My source heard it from his source, who heard it from their source who heard it from their source who heard it from JC himself - John Carver. Not 100% sure why the hell John Carver would know.

Remy will leave, De Jong, Shola and Cisse all should be leaving, but its probably too much of an upheaval, hopefully we don't sign De Jong, cash in on Cisse and just tie down Shola for another extra year (joy). Beyond that we need to decide on a formation, 433 or 442. If its 442 we need wingers down both sides, if its 433 we need a CM, a ST and an AML at the very least.
We desperately need proper investment this summer, it annoys me beyond belief that we finished ahead of Liverpool, Chelsea and Everton two years ago, we've been out-spent and out-ambitioned by all three since then. We need big investment because the other EPL clubs aren't playing the same games as us, we want a profit, they want success.
Number 1
I have heard rumours we want to sign Jack Colback from Sunderland. Interesting premise, that one.
Meanwhile, Ameobi has reportedly said the lack of investment is hurting the playing squad. But then anyone watching the team knows that.

Can't stand the thought of Shola and De Jong up top next year, with Dan Gosling in midfield and it's probably going to come to that.
Apparently Ashley thinks we need "1 or 2 players"
BR.
Lacazette's a player, he'd be a good one for you.
Gomis, like a lot of other strikers of his type, can be unplayable one minute then frustrate the life out of you the next. His goal scoring record is pretty good, but I've lost count of the number of times I've said "he'd done the hard bit, all he needed to do was put it away" (or something similar) whilst watching him this season.

Shola I'd like to believe the source you've mentioned but I don't really know what to think anymore. If Ashley wanted rid of him he's had amble opportunities and when he nutted Meyler he probably could have sacked him without a pay-off, that's a chance a man like Ashley wouldn't miss IMO.
Agree with Skacel's post and then some of the players like Redmond, Lacazette and Riviere would be great. I'd even get Colback just to stop Gosling playing, as Poe mentioned

Would be a good move that one, but I can see him going elsewhere.
Poe
We won't move forward while we keep playing 4-4-2 without wingers. It's a formation that requires them.

I dunno how I feel about it as I know I would tire of pieces proclaiming he's using us as some form of "redemption for his failure at Old Trafford" and we don't know how much the experience up there has affected him, but he can't be any worse than Pardew is currently putting us through.
Certainly, I have no confidence we'll avoid managing our 6th Premier League defeats in a row on Monday.

Mail are reporting Jack Colback is set to move to Tyneside. If Sunderland stay up this season and he moves anyway, he is going to receive psychopathic levels of hate. He might be decent enough but there's others I'd rather sign.
