fucking hell I was at that game. Christ, had forgotten all about it. Was that in the ill-fated Intertwobob whereby Deportivo knocked us out? Am I also right in thinking Michael Mifsud (what happened to him?) played in that game? Correct in both instances. Bjorn Helge Riise, now of Fulham, also played for Lillestrom.

I'd have sent off him like n all because it was cynical as fuck.

Charlton down to 10 now. Some defender sent off for a rugby tackle on Charlie Austin, debatable if he was last man though.

France squad down to 24. Between Planus and Gallas for last space - dependent on the latter's fitness. Goalkeepers: Hugo Lloris (Olympique Lyon), Steve Mandanda(Olympique Marseille), Cedric Carrasso (Girondins Bordeaux) Defenders: Bacary Sagna (Arsenal), Patrice Evra (Manchester United), William Gallas (Arsenal), Eric Abidal (Barcelona), Sebastien Squillaci (Sevilla), Marc Planus (Girondins Bordeaux), Gael Clichy(Arsenal), Anthony Reveillere (Olympique Lyon) Midfielders: Lassana Diarra (Real Madrid), Alou Diarra(Girondins Bordeaux), Jeremy Toulalan (Olympique Lyon), Florent Malouda (Chelsea), Yoann Gourcuff (Girondins Bordeaux), Abou Diaby (Arsenal) Forwards: Thierry Henry (Barcelona), Nicolas Anelka (Chelsea), Andre-Pierre Gignac (Toulouse), Franck Ribery (Bayern Munich), Sidney Govou (Olympique Lyon), Djibril Cisse (Panathinaikos), Mathieu Valbuena (Olympique Marseille)

Hagi, Iniesta, Luis Enrique and Deco to name some more. Ridiculous.

Hughton not fancying Beckford is in the Ronny.

Del Neri steps down as Sampdoria coach. Off to Turin i'd imagine. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/may/17/luigi-del-neri-sampdoria-juventus

That's Jonas and Coloccini off to Liverpool then to help him settle. Gotta love how this reads like "f*** my life, being with my wife and kids every day" Interesting to see so many high-profile Argentinians struggling to adapt to England. Tévez first and now him. Jonás and Coloccini seem to be doing fine, though, and haven't heard anything from Insúa or Di Santo... So guess it's just those two... I think it definitely helps when they are 2 at the same club but if you haven't mastered the language its not going to be very easy for you. Saying that there are ample Spanish speakers (although they don't speak Argentina's bastardised version) at Liverpool and you'd think they would make an effort to get on with Mascherano, spanish culture isn't a million miles away from Argentine.

Could be for the new rules like n all plus at the moment our squad barely reaches 25.

N'Zogbia on his way then I'd imagine. Can't see Wigan breaking even anytime soon, would imagine the bulk of their income is coming from TV money.

Hopefully we can get someone with a proven track record in to replace him since the yoof is our future and all that now.

I think the only FB he plays is Warnock on the left and plays Cuellar as a RB. Did something similar at Celtic too. Weird. When were Warnock and Cuellar ever at Celtic? He means he favoured playing centre backs in the full back positions even at Celtic. G I remember him always having very attacking wing backs- Bobby Petta, Agathe, Steve Guppy? Didn't Celtic used to play with wingbacks like his Leicester team?

Can be Haris' mentor.

Mascherano wanting out by the sounds of things. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/may/17/javier-mascherano-liverpool

They've got loads of midfielders who are younger i guess. Wouldn't be suprised to see him make the move up to the Prem though. Fulham maybes.

Mackems extend Bolo Zenden's contract for another year http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/sunderland/8686360.stm

Why do that when you can annoy way more people having it 2 years running?

Of course we won't.

Some beak on the Zlat like.

Dani Alves showing why he is foreign version of Ashley Cole once more there. Totally unnecessary.

If its the one im listening to i wish he'd pronounce Milito properly.

Milito 1-0

Brilliant save from the Siena keeper.

I'd be snapping their hands off if i was Atletico. One bad season doesn't make a bad player. Unless you play for us. Then it makes you a shocking player who doesn't give a s***. In reference to whom? Fabricio? I have no beef with Fabricio. Xisco on the otherhand.
