Wish I'd heard that. They'll set up a bit defensively to begin with alright, try and take the sting out of the game early on and gradually work their way into superiority. As much better as Milan are, an early goal and they'll be in trouble.

Can I use the C word to describe them yet? And not the one Dave just used.

All this talk of reducing the number of teams that England, Italy and Spain get in is rubbish tbh. How much better would these groups be if we had a couple from of us, Spurs, Blackburn, Everton and the teams of similiar standing in there instead of the likes of Prague, Kiev and Rosenborg and the like. Imagine if we'd vene worse teams in there instead of the likes of Arsenal, Sevilla and Roma? Pfft, Platini is a wanker.

Aye, pity we've nobody who could play RWB? Geremi, with Solano as backup. Given Beye Rozehnal Cacapa Geremi Enrique/N'Zogbia Smith Butt Milner Owen Viduka Wing backs need to be fast, one of their primary functions is to get up and down the flank all day long. Neither Solano or Geremi are that player, and it'd be a waste to even try. You need a terrific motor for the position, which is why Cafu and Roberto Carlos were so perfect for Brazil when they used it, the only succesful 3-5-2 I've ever seen. Dyer and N'Zogbia could have done it, but they won't be thankfully as Dyer is gone.

Good draw for Shaktar (who I'm adopting as my CL team), Milan is a lost cause but we can take Celtic and Benfica.

Aye, pity we've nobody who could play RWB? (Actually, no, it's not a pity.) Edit: Actually, Jon has conveyed my thoughts on the matter better.

Ban this f*** tard. Demanding a ban is bannable offence! Take it you're purely stating that as a fact, and not asking for him to be banned? Subtle attempt to get BooBoo banned? It'll be worth the ban just to see the look on your face when you go down for this. You trying to get me banned? Bannable offence? Double time for you.

It's brilliant

Am I the only one who just doesn't rate Seedorf that highly at all?

But it furthers the 'Geordies have a Good Sense of Humour' myth on the plus side. Think it looks quite stylish actually, be a nice substitute for a dressing gown around the house. it was a joke mate.. i'll burn your house for your ignorance.. Ya wouldn't burn a CD mate, bring it on. oh really?! i 'll show you then, you'll see.. you'll see man... rock or hiphop? Rock, obviously, as I'm not a complete clown. Good choice, right then.. burning the CD now Gonna post it over like?

Barton I reckon, or Enrique. Both have the ability (though I'm basing my opinion of Enrique on what others have told me) to be a fixture in a succesful side for years to come, not sure anyone else really does.

Lennon is significantly better than Milner, as a wide player anyway. Milner will never be a top player, Lennon might if he gets his act together. I'd take N'Zogbia over them both though, think he's got the lot. Just needs time to develop, as Baggio said last year set him back a full year.

Almost certainly bollocks obviously. Can you imagine the tactics if we did get him? 'Right lads, I want you to just get the ball withing thirty yards of their goal and the fling yourselves on the ground at the first opportunity.'

As long as we don't sign Ronaldinho, that'd be depressing eh?

Makes sense to me.

Can only hope he's talking shite there.

Can't think of a more suitable name/slogan for the 'Ultras' tbh.

More terrible news.

Almost, a real difference maker at the other end of the pitch would seal the deal.

hmmmmmmmmm whats your point? Every time Ledley's been injured? Implying that he's been injured a fair bit. yes and Robster was comparing Lennons injury with Owen NOT ledleys injury. Fair enough. Still think that CM partnership is of any use then? what Malbranque and Barton? Yeah.

Would you rather he just ran as fast as he could to get through for the goal, despite there being no need? And he'd fuck all chance to get away on the first clip they showed. Still nowhere near match fit anyway, so relax.
