Euro U21s, then pre-season friendly tournaments etc... Who am I kidding, it's going to be fucking hell again. :( I'm glad, man. Been way too hooked this season. Even on games, leagues, teams I don't give a crap about. Need to get the rest of my life, back!

FF bonus points: 1 Lampard 2 Saylor 3 Alex

Two Bs would be ideal, but realistically: Wigan & Brum.

Fucking disgrace! http://londontomk.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/drogba.gif

Blackpool have scored more though. Far, far more.

The kind of thing that comes back to bite you on the ass if/when he leaves anyway and we look like mugs. Making a bedsheet with that written on it is the equivalent of telling a girl you love her (and not knowing her response) - risking the guy she actually loves rinsing you... in subsequent seasons... and having sex with her in your house.. and their house... (okay, my extended metaphor has gone awry). My point is: It's a gamble!

I know cheap Jose's don't grow on trees, but the disparity in quality, creativity and pace on our left and right flank is quite alarming lately.

Guti holding crotch and Enrique limp-wristed Oh and Saylor's jumping facepalm.

Best NUFC player second half of the season IMO.

I want them to stay up. 6 points off them this season, might get the same again next.

Brum deserve to go down. Bring absolutely nothing to the league except shit fans.

You get exactly what you pay for. This will sound bitter, but I don't care: I actually think he looks much better at Villa as their system suits him better. He gets more chances - can seldom remember him scoring more than one goal a game at Sunderland. Looks capable of getting hatfuls at Villa.

In CM? No thanks. I meant RM for the record. I echo the thoughts of colinmk who has summed up what I've been pondering for a while. Obviously, the thought of selling him on never crossed my mind and definitely want him in the first-team set up, but I'd definitely want more mobile options on the right hand side.

Hangeland is a monster. VdV 1-0.

Just an open question to the forum/this thread, how happy are people with Barton occupying a starting berth for Newcastle next season?

Actually a good shout.

Man Utd - 1 point Chelsea - 2 points Arsenal - 4 points Man City - 0 points Liverpool - 3 points 10 points from 10 matches against the top teams.

Agree with O-Nut, swapping round Jonas and Barton. Really great to see Ferguson in midfield. Not a complete performance or owt, but so brilliant to see more than one midfielder willing to run at defenders and take on players. Gave Jonas much more space too - he's been overburdened by being the only real creative midfielder for too long.

I'm not very fond of Pardew, but I'm very thankful for the job he did today. Cracking substitutions made a dream come true... to see two Ameobis on the same pitch. Not to mention Kazenga and Ranger.

Looking forward to this now! Mental formations please.

All hail. Reckon we should start the youngsters against WBA.

at Sammy falling over trying to tackle someone. Oh, he's an Ameobi alright No DNA test required.
