Well, as I said a few pages back, the deal taking Jack Colback from Sunderland to Newcastle is allegedly done and dusted - so there's one player Sunderland probably won't be hanging on to.
As for Newcastle, well Remy's definitely gone and it's rumoured that Ben Arfa's going too. Cisse probably needs to go and I'm utterly sick of seeing the amazing Ameobi boys in action - so they can go too. However, I really can't think of anyone decent who'd be prepared to come in and replace them. And, of course, there's always the issue of whether Ashley will be prepared to spend next season. If he doesn't, then I'll say it again, I predict a relegation battle for the Toon in 2014-15 - except this time, I don't expect them to survive it!
