Preseason training

Pavo

Has anybody been near the training ground since the squad returned to training yesterday?

I just read Souley's agents comments and though these may be a few days old, was thinking that if he is just returning from holiday now, then he isn't training and would put money on him not being with us this coming season. The same logic would apply to any of the players that haven't shown up for training.

So question is, if you have watched them training or starting those long runs, who else was missing? Rommedahl, Marcus, Faye? This is a wish list btw.

Didn't Pardew say that the bulk of the squad will stay intact for next season at the end of the last? We are getting to the stage where you don't need both hands to count how many remain with Prem experience. I'm not complaining mind, Curbs eventually created a shower of sheyete and Dowie merrily grew it further. Was high time for a massive cull and rebuild!
