Exactly what i wanted to say, he's very highly rated and i don't expect Rennes to sell him for anything less than 5m. Would be more than that, Pompey were in for him in the summer but were put off by an asking price of £7Million.

He certainly wouldn't be cheap.

Full Time Spurs 1 - 2 Blackburn

Not in charge today.

Spurs 1 - 1 Blackburn

1-0 pool. Shearer style!

He didn't win himself anything, won a bet with Kemsley with the money going to charity.

Didn't see it myself as my season ticket is in the Gallowgate end but just got this off a Spurs fan. http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/4396/sportsdirectku5.jpg

Stupid bint on MOTD just called the post the bar!

6.10.94, Man United at home in the League Cup, won 2-0. I was 9.

What network are you on? 02, I'd already gone over my usage for the month and I hadn't realised!

Just got my mobile phone bill through, cost me almost a tenner to keep you lot updated. Will not be doing that again!

Le Havre.

Martins against City was better than that and didn't get on either.

It's not exactly the Nou Camp is it? Just turn up, most will be in the West Stand.

There was an Ashley Grimes who played for Man Utd around late 70s or early 80s. Any relation? Not sure to be honest, I'll find out tomorrow and let you know.

FA Cup 3rd round is after the end of the initial loan.

Pretty sure he got a 3 match ban and was still suspended tonight.

He wasn't in the 16. Forgot to say that Edgar went off with a knock, didn't look anything serious but he was limping when he walked to the coach after the game.

No, I'm not. Looks like they haven't paid their hosting bill.

Read the other thread that I was posting in from my mobile while I was at the match.

He looked fit enough so yes, N'Zogbia was shocking at left back against City and we could do with his creativity in midfield.

Looked well off the pace, some nice passes and set Godsmark through on goal midway through the first half, could tell he hadn't played for a while.

A proven Premiership player and our most promising young defender not a match for young Citeh players. Worrying sign. Massive over reaction from a few lines about City opening us up on the break!! Edgar was class, won everything in the air and solid in the tackle, good at reading the game and some very good interceptions. Faye is just a beast, won everything in the air and can head the ball a very long way, he often used is strength to get us out of dodgy situations. The fact we were opened up a few times by City on the break was more to do with Pattison and Emre in the middle being upfield and then our defence being overran by the City midfield. All in all it was a very good game and a decent performance, Pattison had a decent game in midfield, Lua Lua showed glimpses for amazing skill. Enrique looked solid at the back and very dangerous going forward when he did go forward. Emre had a decent game, as you would expect from someone of his quality at this level, he sat deep for most of the first half but got more involved in the second half, thought he was going to get himself sent off when he went marching over to start on one of the City kids who had just caught him with a late tackle after he had played a pass, thankfully Edgar jogged over and prevented him from doing anything stupid. Forster in net was class, he really has developed so much in the last year or so, his shot stopping today was top class, his kicking needs a lot of work but his distribution via his hands was very good, can throw the ball a very long way and he is quick to spot an opening, run to the edge of his box and get us going on counter attacks. After the game I spoke to Lee Clark (miserable git), Faye (seemed so small when he looks massive on the pitch), Emre (flash git, had a leather wash bag with his own personalized silver plaque) and finally I had a few words in Spanish with Jose Enrique, just said told him I could speak a little bit of Spanish and that he played well, his response in Spanish was 'Thanks, I can't speak any English, sorry.'
