YOU'D BE FUCKING SURPRISED.

The last couple of years they should have done better than just float around 13th/14th still playing the same 'style' of football despite spending loads on Crouch and Jones etc, agreed with that, but I really wouldn't call it an awful job.
An awful job is something like Kean did at Rovers, not getting a team up and then avoiding any serious relegation trouble for the next five seasons. FA Cup final as well. But yeah, they should have done better last couple of years and they're not really improving, especially when clubs who've spent a lot less have finished top 10 in that time.

Around £90m around half didn't even get a look in. Awful amount of money for mediocrity, that kind of net spend should see them competing near the other end of the table.

Don't know what probability it is of being accurate but who knows - didn't see Pulis going, for instance.

Remember that £90m has completely built a side that has lasted 5 season in the PL. And £90m is only 18 months wages for very mediocre sides. Pulis has done Stoke's main ambition, to get promoted and established in the Premier League, obviously he has done it in quite an expensive way, but I'm sure Stoke are better off than if didn't spend and were relegated.
Also remember that £90m hasn't completely disappeared, a decent chunk of it is still in the squad.
Pulis has paid over the odds for some players, but in a way, I think he has been forced to, because no one decent is willing to go to Stoke if there is an alternative. Obviously a lot of that is his fault, because of the style of football.

Also, I wish more clubs had presidents like Napoli's. Saying stuff like "Our new manager's name begins with an 'M'" is just awesome. More clubs should tease like that

Would be a fantastic deal.

I've only really seen him when we played Barca in a friendly a couple of years ago. He was a cheating little shit but scored a brilliant goal.
Dutton
I'd pay £15M for that alone.
But yeah his release fee is something ridiculous but if he doesn't play enough games this season it automatically goes down to £15M, which he hasn't. Still some games left though isn't there?

Bold move...

Very bold, would be a huge gamble and could see it ending in tears......it's a crucial appointment for Everton, I'd avoid just promoting people from within.

He's good.
Easily in the same bracket of talent as the likes of Wilshere and Gündogen, although those two have obviously got higher profiles right now.
Don't really see him wanting to leave Barca though even if they would let him go that cheep.

Can't say I particularly believe them or Graham Hunter.
