I suppose we'll just have to settle for him instead. Could be worse. Could end up with that Messi.

I think he might just end up replacing Drogba at Chelsea tbh.

Don't know an awful lot about either of them but I get the impression Hicks will just dig his heels in. It's a situation that's been managed terribly by them all. For a club which allegedly doesn't wash it's dirty linen in public, they're giving an awful lot of interviews. You'd have thought they'd all just shut the fuck up and phone each other rather than inviting Sky round to discuss things. One thing that's always struck me is just how childishly a lot of rich and successful businessmen can be when they feel that someone has got one over on them. You'd have thought they could rise above it, but they can be incredibly petty and vindictive. Aye well, I'll be quite happy to see them ripping bits off each other in public for the forseeable tbh. Never liked Liverpool.

It's sooo nice to see the shit hitting the fan so publically at somewhere else for a change. It's just bubbling up nicely.

About 3500 empty seats too.

Hate watching Chelsea. Their games are so dreary (from a neutral's point of view)...

0-1. Essien.

Nah, Bramble had moments when he would go on a career best 3-4 games in a row where he'd quality. You always knew that boumsong was never ever gonna regain his composure cos his confidence was destryoed. I must admit I had my doubts when he struggled in his debut against Yeading.

Everton v Chelsea tonight don't forget. Live on SS1.

Leadbitter I'd imagine?

Oh we can't afford to wet-nurse Terry. If he's not up to scratch straight away, I'd ship the cockney twat out sharpish.

At a push, aye. Playing with Taylor in training every day would bring Terry's game on a treat.

Drogba and Essien. No-one else is good enough for us.

Don't, man. Seriously. Duff ticks all the boxes for that lot. height=25 width=25http://re-xs.ucsm.ac.uk/gcsere/revision/xtianity/ch2/images/Tickbox.gif[/img] Irish height=25 width=25http://re-xs.ucsm.ac.uk/gcsere/revision/xtianity/ch2/images/Tickbox.gif[/img] Absolutely fucking shite Blimey, you're right. height=25 width=25http://re-xs.ucsm.ac.uk/gcsere/revision/xtianity/ch2/images/Tickbox.gif[/img] Name/reputation (to those who've not watched him recently)

Don't, man. Seriously. Duff ticks all the boxes for that lot.

He'll end up at Sunderland imo. Him or Duff.

Duff?

Although it's only a 90 second snippet, if that was the norm, it goes some way to explain some of the shite I've seen this season.

I know what you mean. He was always just a busy,bustling centre forward who built his game around harassing defenders and making himself awkward to play against. He didn't have that 'class' (for want of a better word) about him. He was different to any striker that Fergie had on the books at the time though but the plan of sticking him in the middle of the park and doing what Keane did crashed and burned pretty quickly! I thought he'd do a decent job for us but that's gone to shit too.

It's no 'Buffalo soldier, Geordie left back'...

James, what the fuck are you doing?

He said in his press conference "this is the best squad of players I've ever had to work with." He then proceeded to spaff £50m+ on improving it......only to turn in our worst league position for a decade. He did more damage in his time here than any of us could ever have imagined. An utter, utter, utter twat.

Souness.

Shame they're safe. We could have delta massive blow to their hope of staying up...
