I'm relieved in a way, it's the best thing for Hatem. The end of the torture for him (and us). Seeing him thrown on in games and (often on the left) must have been soul destroying for him...Given 10-15 here and there. Other games where the ball was flying over his head or rarely having someone to pass to..and all the other things we've moaned about for months. A truly unique player who will I'm sure come into his own somewhere else. His goals will always be remembered... Roll on more dirge and the huff and puff.

It's all Pardue and his workathon players. He likes workers not pure footballers, might as well manage a mining company.

Tragedy what's happened to him under Pardue.

The story lines coming out of the club are more convoluted than Lost.

That first chance he had was the key to it...If that had gone in would have been a different game for him.

Oh look we suddenly have some attacking threat with Hatem on.

Might as well let a pack of squirrels run the club.

Cisse. God help us. Managed to kick a loose ball through his own legs to an opp player.

Someone needs to kick it in the net for Cisse.

Just haul Santon off and be done with it.

Santon doing his thing.

Tidied.

The Parkew thing sent shivers down my spine. I fear that.

Arsenal on the comeback with their frail egos in tatters will decimate ManU. Moyes will be kicked to the curb.

2-2

Mou can't believe it. Never played football. Learnt how a few charts work and who stands where...Boom! 10m a year at Real. Nice.

Just seems to say whatever nonsense pops into his head.

Sort out the payoff and I'm gone.

If you think an attack on Barcelona equals an attack on Spanish football, you've got a lot of reading of Spanish history to do. This is what I was getting at. The Catalans really aren't that interested in the rest of Spain and there seems to be an enduring suspicion from the other side as well.

Thought the Spanish in general didn't like the Catalans and visa versa?

He needs people with movement and pitch sense t pass to, not Shola.

He got bored in Spain that much is clear. Prefers the PL and seems much more his old self here.

He has his own brand of mind games. In England we pick up on its playfulness...

He couldn't deliver the free flowing attacking football Roman craves.

The only way I can win this is if he turns out to be a serial killer.
