Gervinho has already ruled himself out of a move by demanding champions league football and can't see Owen ever returning after his Twitter comments. Would love to see Given back but think it would be very harsh on Harper.

Smith to Southampton, Norwich, stoke, burnley, rangers, Leeds. .it's completely gone into overdrive this rumour malarkey! lol. seriously, does anyone actually know where he's going?! lol

- obviously not, and none of us care where he goes. You post something once a week about Smith. You'd be thoroughly disappointed anyway. His footballing ability is on par with League One standard, at best. And he most definitely will not add anything to your squad now to turn you into potential promotion candidates next year. Have you even seen him play the past 3-4 seasons?
