Why all the clubs then? As i said. Mido's atitude AT SPURS was first class. Why did he let himself get so out of shape then? 3 stone overweight apparently? Is that the sign of a good attitude? Attitude in a sense that he never complained publicly when he was continuously overlooked, he always gave 100% whenever he was picked, he never spoke bad about Jol or the team publicly. 3 stone overweight?? What bollocks He's a professional footballer yeah? He knows he's got to keep himself in good condition physically yeah? So why the fuck, if his attitude is spot on, does he let himself get so out of shape? It's a fair question. PS the 3 stone bit came from MJ on this very forum. (May have been 2 stone thinking about it but the point still stands) EDIT: Just checked and he had to lose 30lb's in order to pass his medical making his loan deal permanent from Roma according to MJ. That's a shade over 2 stone. One of you is lying. :lol:

That means playing 12 men. Don't think the Premier League are going to go for that tbh.

Diet regime? The fucker looked liked Claire Rayner last I heard!

That's absolutely spot on indi.

Deserves every plaudit he's going to inevitably get. Top keeper and a top professional * * Apart from when he spat his dummy 6 years ago and submitted a transfer request after losing his place to Harper. Having said that, he probably knew he was streets ahead of Harper and his over-reaction has largely been erased from my memory BECAUSE HE WAS FUCKING RIGHT. PS. Don't start with the Harper vs Given shit please.

How will that help us qualify for the European Championships?

Distin's much much better than what we've just let go. He's no worldbeater but he could have come in and been solid enough. But if the bloke's chosen Portsmouth then that's up to him. Hardly the end of the world is it?

Big club are Wolves. Would rather see them in the top flight as opposed to Wigan, Fulham or Reading tbh. No disrespect to the 3 I've named but Wolves have a history and tradition that pisses all over them.

His legs have gone imo. Looks a shadow of the player he did a couple of years ago. Still far better than Babayaro like (which is sickening).

Just about the least reliable source you can get mate, seeing as any anonymous person can edit it to say what they like. And they probably have. I read it yesterday in one of the Sunday papers ...and where do you think those lazy shitehawks got it from?....

We've managed it with this new kit tbf.

Tells us? I'd like to think someone at the club has had the foresight to actually ask him tbh.

Hope Milan nail them to the wall. Also hope it's a bit more entertaining than that heap of shit on Saturday.

Would like to see a Campbell + Ben Haim pairing. Taylor makes too many mistakes for my liking (which is understandable, given his age) but he will get better from working with Campbell every day. Bit of a long shot naming those 2 bearing in mind neither has actually signed but I'm hopeful both do.

alex has hit the nail on the head like. He won't recall him because of the threat of looking weak. It was his big gesture/statement to the squad that it was time for change - if he does a U-turn now, the media will rip him to bits for it. He's made is bed and he's going to have to lie in it.

Barca to win their last 3 games and Real to bottle one of theirs?? Any takers?

Five nowt. Barca are the kings of Spain.

Good shout.

Great shout Aye, a fella who's just been out for a year would solve all our problems. Sometimes on here you see people say "good call" or "great shout" etc just because it's the first time a player has been mentioned. Fair point but sometimes it IS a good suggestion and one which many people may have overlooked/forgotten about. King is an example - not an obvious player to be linked with but one who could, perhaps, do a job if we went for him.

I'd say no. I'd agree. He's good but he's 'manufactured' rather than natural. He uses his pace to get him into the position and runs onto things rather than having a feel for finding the right areas. Hard to explain.

I'd go along with a lot of that but I think Rooney plays better as one of a partnership upfront. Put him out on the left hand side of an attacking 3 and he can cut inside and get a shot away but that means he can't go on the outside and whip a cross in. Swings and roundabouts? I'd have him playing just behind a moblie, pacy centre forward who is ablr to find space and finish well. His partner would also attract defenders which would enable Rooney that little bit of space and time to create things for himself. All things considered, Rooney is a cracking player who's going to get better and better. Drogba has really pushed on this season and is one of the best strikers in Europe but I think if you put him in Boro's team - he'd flop, whereas Rooney would still impress. Drogba needs the service - Rooney IS the service. I'd agree that Rooney is ideally suited to playing as one of a partnership, but do you think he ultimately will end up doing so? I'm not so sure, as it's in Man U's best interests to keep Ronaldo playing high up the pitch as well so a 4-3-3 may make the most sense. Don't agree with the part about Drogba needing service at all if I'm honest. To me his best feature is that he creates so much for his teammates out of what are often aimless balls forward. He gets his head on almost everything that comes near him, and he's quality with his back to goal. Led the league in assists last season I believe. I do actually! I think Ronaldo should be used as an out-and-out winger who causes mayhem and forces the defending team to double/triple team up on him which creates space for others. Just feed him the ball til he's sick of it. Fair point about Drogba but I think he makes the most out of poor service. The way Chelsea play is an issue and I wonder how long he'll put up with being the one who has to deal with the 2 centre halves kicking the shit out of him.

Pissing it. three nowt.

I'd go with all that, but then you look around and see all the Barca shirts on fat Englishmen and it puts you right off. Hardly Barca's fault though is it? I'm sure the marketing guys at Barca would claim differently You implying I'm fat like? :lol: You snore like a fat man tbh. Hehehe. I know. :lol:
