Wearing the new red Pantofola d'Oro boots in the new training pictures, makes him more fwap worthy than normal

 

A work of art those boots. Suitable boots for the King.

Finally an excuse for those ugly generic boots on FIFA to exist. HBA10 is getting a makeover.

There would be a lot of positives as it would improve competitiveness, maybe even encourage teams to open up more and try to play more football. Also if finances were to follow the American model with there being a salary cap we might see talent more evenly spread amongst the teams.

But, it simply isn't feasible to deny any team entry to a top league.

I'm guessing same colour socks will still be an issue with most refs. Shorts not so much.

They probably did have a moan and asked for improved visibility, yeah.

Just goes to show as mentioned before, it's not necessarily about the size of the stripes and number of stripes. Just about the spacing.

That Porto shirt is very close to our new home one in many ways. But it manages to be much cooler.

We could probably offer him a contract where he pays the club to stay. Would probably agree to it.

Just throw in a bonus for goals against Sunderland for good measure.

For Mimi's avatar 

England's keeper is well shit.

She was coming off her line way too early every time too yet never used it to her advantage

Some decently taken pens here.

Proper jinxed it.

Some decently taken pens here.

If it goes to pens there's absolutely no excuse for not scoring. The keepers are gash.

As good as the other girls might do, the keepers always bring the credibility crashing right back down again.

What a dive there

 

Speaking of French diving, I hope our new recruits aren't too prone to diving - hate seeing NUFC players diving

What, even when Jonas dives? It's hilarious, looks like he's been hoisted up by his puppet master in the skies.

Embarrassing most of the time. Actually, saw a random highlight the other week of Lille playing Lens and Cabaye got booked for a blatant dive.

My mate had any weekend to have his stag doo. Had to chose this bastard weekend!

A mate is having his actual wedding on the 20th

The cut and design looks like a modern version of the grandad collar shirt... Just with a bit more of an actual collar. Looks pretty awesome.

From fallouts to friendships: the many faces of controversial striker Craig Bellamy

 

Craig Bellamy has laid bare his public feud with Roberto Mancini and insisted he will refuse to take a pay-cut to leave Manchester City, despite claiming he has not spoken to the Italian for almost 18 months.

 

The 31 year-old, who is expected to be left behind when City’s first-team squad fly to Los Angeles for pre-season training on Friday, has delivered a withering criticism of Mancini’s management style and refusal to accept the full extent of his fitness requirements in a wide-ranging interview covering the Welshman’s career, on and off the pitch.

And then to be able to kick it about over cement and gravel without giving a fuck.

So the socks are black for all three of our kits then.

They chaging that every year now as well?

Bit indifferent about the orange shirt at first... but combined with those shorts and socks it could look great out on the pitch.

The three amigos have always stuck together in what seems a healthy way.

Like they have the right balance of being mates, having their little group but also getting along with the rest of the squad.

principles and integrity are constants, you knacker

Constant to who or what you are looking out for. The only true losers of the whole situation were the fans, that's all there is to it.

So for him to come out and always mention his love for the fans and club rings false.

The guy has principles and integrity

Loves them the most and for everyone to know that. His sudden bouts of misplaced integrity didn't do the club much good, but I suppose that doesn't matter.

Wanted us to sign him badly back in 2004. Still kinda torn as I remember the player he was but his fitness problems scream Dyer at West Ham.

That's the illusion with players like him. No point holding on to what player he could be but also hard to look past it

Hearing him talk about how nufc is his club that he loves just sounds hypocritical now. He always talked a good game though.

 

Hypocritical how?

Because he didn't hesitate to leave the club he loves so much in a lurch blah blah blah. Just talks the talk now.
