La Parka

Yay! I missed Italian footy on sundays like the good old C4 days.

Fixed your squad Mclaren.

Gerrin Tayls. I think Lescott should be in ahead of campbell like.

2 games too early to tell.

Well done guys! KUTGW! Anything to improve the atmosphere is a great idea.

Too right we should .

If curtis Davies is worth 10m then Taylor is worth that easy. I have never seen the hype for Davies so..

No chane on £5m. More like £15m. No way in hell Hughes will sell like. I would of said 10m and why would Hughes? It was more in reference to another thread. Look at his first choice attacking players, McCartney, Santa Cruz, Pederson and Bentley - I'd have them at toon if we could. Bentley is a winger as is Pederson. Mc Carthy and Sant Cruz are first choice with Roberts and Derbyshire as backup. Bentley is on the verge of an england call up and there is no way in hell he will be sold. I reckon a £15m bid wouldn't shift him. Blackburn are hardly poor either.

Its all starts at grassroots where the emphesis is on physical factors rather than skill and technique. It just carries forward from there really.

Carson ,Sanga Corluka, Samba, Baines, Elano, Geremi, Manuel Fernandez, Milner, Roque Santa Cruz, Bianchi

Both. English wingers of the future. Bentley Right Milner Left

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/middlesbrough/6950238.stm Santa Cruz looks like a very astute signing already. Hughes is really good at picking them out: Samba, Mc Carthy, Cruz best so far all for relatively little.

Do you think Leeds can afford to get the team to Pompey?

Aye. Diouf is a cunt. Still doesn't stop him being a quality player.

Against boro he was pretty solid the odd lapse but it wasn't capitalised on. He is still trying to do his long ball trick although it works better with Sibi and Heskey upfront.

Depression was also said. They never officially explained his absence buy maybe this summers reasons for transfer played a part.

Do the hordings move on contact?> Or are they solid? Surely they are a risk to injury?

Found his level then. Probably the worst player of the last 5 years. Doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the first team and I fear it is more out of sympathy after his injury than (non existant) talent. Agree with this, dunno why he was so hyped up? Before his ACL? injury he won the Jackie Milburn award thing (as did Carrol) and was highly rated. It appears it has carried over despite his injuries and lack of recovery.

He is. I can't see him getting anywhere near to his best. If he proves me wrong I will be very surprised.

Thats the second time that someone has mentioned his health, not injury, what is this urban myth that surrounds him? He has a mystery health problem under Roeder IIRC.

Newcastle v Tykes Not bad draw really.
