SEMTEX

FUCKING CLASS IN 2004. Shit in 2006, but he was only 20, bless him. So flawed. He was shit for the last 3 tournaments. He performed poorly in every game he has played in. He scraped one goal in a game where he once again, performed badly. He deserves 1 more tournament. Then he's done. This fitness stuff is shite mind you. Fuck all to do with fitness. I think people just assume he's unfit because his face goes red and he's fugly. Not your standard athletic type.

In the last 10 years, Wayne Rooney has pretty much performed at Shola levels at every tournament, and in a months time, it's perfectly feasible that Shola will have scored more World Cup goals than Wayne Rooney. I'd have absolutely no issues whatsoever moving on from Wayne if he provides the same shit in Brazil that he has since Euro 2004. This is not the same as a league, or qualification, where it's a matter of consistency over time, we need players who are capable of performing at big events. There are some fantastic players around, that simply don't do it on the big stage, it's just a different kind of pressure to the pressure they're under at a club. I just wish someone had the balls to pick a team based around who can perform, rather than just picking the best individual players.

The England's highest scoring player thing means absolutely nowt like. Doesn't tell you anything about who he's scored against, and what the occasion was. And it certainly doesn't inform you of his fairly mediocre scoring rate. Shola Ameobi is Newcastle's 2nd highest scoring European goalscorer. He must have been class.

If platini goes down

I'm gonna find him and take him out for a drink if he gets cut like. Show him the sights, race up the rocky steps, maybe even have a bit kick about. Wish he had a twitter mind you. Gonna be difficult getting in touch through Sammy.

I'm not convinced the Nigeria Football Federation Twitter account is perfectly synchronized with the thoughts of Mr Keshi. It seems the web presence of the NFF isn't a great priority, given their official website is just a 'for sale' placeholder. I assume they forgot to renew their domain name. How delightfully Nigerian.

Today's the day innit? I've got butterflies. Shola must go to Brazil.

beat spurs 3 times this season though, every cloud http://i.imgur.com/jRZ3XmD.jpg

On the road so can't watch this. How's the game going? I see the score, but dominant performance or what? Promising enough score line if they've done it without giving up any chances, and kept possession well..

Calm down man rich. It's not worth it. Think of your kids.

slayed by choo fucking choo.

hope y'all are ready to see a real classy outfit dominate inferior opposition... we're gonna show you how it's done

I don't mind the team at all. I'd probably have Sterling over Welbeck, purely because I think our best bet is to pretend to be Liverpool. But I'm sure Welbeck can do a decent job in this system, given he's got other strikers around him who can actually score.

on the verge of agreeing a fee ffs. im out.

Shola is in Philadelphia. Mate who works for the Eagles got a photo with him. Bastard.

Wouldn't have happened had the owner lady actually decided she wanted to keep them competitive though. They'd still have Cortese and Pochettino and they'd continue building.

Pretty surprised tbh. Didn't expect him to move.

fabianski signing for swansea, commence the keeper merry go round?
