Phew.

zomg what a difference 7 days makes eh Motson omfg.

Midfield = Oh dear.

Basically? That will alert bigger and better clubs, that and being in the French squad.

Two top drawer goals. Highly doubt we'll get him now.

Agreed, for once.

ahem http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/internationals/4420426.stm Crouch in the picture. Useless bastard.

My first real memory of following football, brilliant entertainment. Will watch that at some point, cheers James.

We should start looking for a decent young English keeper then.

Spot on Keefaz, it's just added ammunition for some people. No way he should be captain for England though. Rio's been consistently better than him in the premiership this season and always at international level.

Are you surpised or something? Edit - That came out wrong.

I'm unsure about SWP, he's 26, and it will take him at least a full season to recapture his form of old (if he ever does) and he's not the type of player who will last far into his thirties playing at the top level. Which means we get 2 maybe 3 season out of him. I dunno, something about signing him just wouldn't sit right with me. Especially at 10m. It would just seem like another Duff/Parker type signing to me. I can genuinely see him going that way. I'd rather go for Lennon, he's still raw as hell at this moment in time but he could be devastating if shaped and used properly which is KK's forte, plus we'd get a few more years out of him than SWP. And he'd be cheaper (imo). PLUS, didn't SWP say only a couple of weeks ago he would definately be at Chelsea next season?

Hope they go straight back down along with Stoke.

Watching that back he doesn't even slip, just turns his ankle, the ball still went where he wanted it to imo.

That was hilarious at the time, over a corner ffs.

You have no shame.

Their third one reminds me of a Betis one I have but the blue line is green, quality shirt.

What a fucking geek. Can't believe he did that thumping the heart thing.

Have the exact same with some Liverpool fans I know. You can't explain anything to them. Like one denied getting lucky in the second leg against Arsenal, his argument was "Well we scored one after Gerrards penalty anyway" dismissing me trying to explain that that was a consequence of Arsenal having to go for another goal and only leaving one player back. Blood boiling.

I like the tournament idea more than anything else suggested so far, could become a staple thing for a few years including a raft of previous clubs (whoever was available)? PSV, Barcelona, Sporting, Porto, Us, Ipswich, Fulham and WBA aren't exactly a bad pool to choose from! Obviously the venue could change each year, along with the participants. It'd be a bugger to organise, but could be a very nice touch for a very good man. the "sir boby robson tournement" it should get held at the stadium of the previous winners, first one at the toon. As long as you're not in charge of advertising such an event.

I thought he was going to 'accidently' give him a sly elbow then.

Oooh, killed it.
