Good post HTT. African nations used to have an enigma about them, not now. Seems to me that it's your Japan's etc that provide a mystery factor to the world cup these days.

Roy Keane reminds me of Saddam Hussein. I think it was that daft grey beard Keane used to have. Both evil thugs too. Don't think Saddam ever wanked his dog, so there's one he's got on Keane.

Can we keep Messi?

Not been enough of it.

Well I like Wor Jon

Was it Jon Champion with "Belllammmmmmmmy!"?

Fuck you Kaka.

Think Clive was on first night. Anyway 1-0

He's great. Insightful, without the arrogance. You know he knows what he's talking about, without being preachy. Everything Lawrenson and Keown aren't.

Most of the transfer rumours we are hearing so far stink of agent bullshit or clubs using our name. I've seen very little that sounds realistic and the club seem desperate to distance themselves from rumours via Lee Ryder.

Or score it.

Don't take it Messi.

gotta try and prove he's better than Ronaldo somehow Aye taking penalties are the reason he's trying to prove he's better than Ronaldo gotta pad dem stats except he doesnt You drunk?

Aguero has been invisible since the goal.

Contender for worst post of the year. For a few reasons.

Iceland winner.

Terrible pen.

Move the ball quicker you twats.

I'm never betting on football again.

It's all dependant on incomings. 10m seems too low. Give us 15 and he can go. He's worth 15m to Stoke if he gets them promoted. While we are on, give their number 10 a nudge in the other direction .

I have always been fairly neutral on Mitrovic. On the one hand, he's not a bad player and certainly has some qualities about him, on the other, he's never going to be a top level striker as he simply doesn't have the pace or finishing ability. There seems to be an obsession with classing him great or shit.

Australia dominating.

Can I insert some pithy remark about monitoring players?

Lawrenson. It's going on mute.
