I am thinking, that English players would be working harder to be there VERY best if this stupid law isnt in place. Because for example Mark Randall at Arsenal he is working his hardest to make the breakthrough and is moving places. But if for example he HAS to be played at Arsenal because there are no other englishmen fit/as good whatever, will he be working as hard?
I think not.
This is an important point. The last thing you want is for English lads to feel they are entitled to a place in the team.
Just yesterday Capello was emphasizing the point that it's not really about the quantity of English players, but more the quality. I believe the foreigners are really psuhing English youngsters to improve and become better, quality players.
Take that genuine competition away and I feel the overall quality of theseplayers will be greatly reduced.

Abidal or Evra? Seems a tough choice.
Clichy not even making the squad as well who could be argued is just as good.
EDIT: You b******.
Clichy is the most complete of all three in my opinion. Domenech is nuts.

Clichy.

Chances go
Way, way down.
Could really see him doing well in the tournament too. Anelka and Henry have had long seasons and are a bit older, more jaded etc.
Gomis and Benzema could really breakthrough in the Euros.

People say the stupidest things ... it's not just about scoring against Ecuador is it!
The guy has been banging in goals ever since he was introduced into the St. Etienne first team, he looks to be a real powerhouse striker with pace, athleticism and some fine finishing ability. He is also only 22 years old.
The match against Ecuador was his first introduction to the full national team and he didn't seem to be overawed or intimidated at all. He scored two quality goals which were very good finishes regardless of the opposition.
Now taking all of this into account I would say people have every right to be impressed.

If they gave us either Palacios or Valencia in return I would take that deal.

think it's bollocks myself but we'll see..
Signing Dos santos will almost certainly mean the end of Lennon tbh. If this is the case, im pretty sure you lot will make a bid...
Dos Santos is a lefty isn't he?
Left footed but plays on the right for Barca. Even when Messi was injured, Henry was prefered on the left than him.
MJ what the point in the Dos Santos signing if we're looking to get Bentley in too?. Smacks of us neglecting the positions that actually need strengthning yet again..
I doubt Dos Santos would be brought in to start in the first team, besides he also playes as a second striker.
-
It was only Ecuador. Jeez even the US beats them. Should we pay 18 million for Altidore when he scores 2 against Panama?
Americans can't play "soccer" so no.

None of you lot will give a s**** about Gomis when Crouchinho's doing the robot in front of the Gallowgate.
Now that is a sobering thought

Aye, and Kewell the end of Malbranque.

they got the goals on dailymotion.com.
GET HIM IN!!
Too late my friend ... we'll have to hope for other irons in the fire.

I doubt he would get in our team ahead of Beye anyway, no lose.
:lol: -
We are the worst team in the world, we couldn't even sign a Championship player because even those teams are more attractive..
We'd obviously have a chance (provided the top four don't come sniffing), but these goals tonight won't help us. If nothing else, they'll add a few million onto the asking price.
Has he been named in France's Euro 2008 squad?
Likely he will be after that debut (added to the squad that is). At the very least he would be a heck of a player to bring off the bench if they are chasing the game.
I don't think they have any other striker like him at the moment who is big and strong. The closest thing is probably Trezeguet and he's been left out completely.
Doesn't look anything like Trezeguet to me.
I meant stature wise the only other French striker who even comes close is Trezeguet.
As Trezeguet has been left out of the squad completely, it is likely Gomis will be named in the final squad now as he is so different to the other French strikers i.e. more of a target manish sort.
Comprende?

Wow ... just seen the goals now.
Absolutely depressing. The man looks like a freakin beast of a player. Powerhouse striker. You can certainly see the Drogba comparisons. And to think he is only 22! God his potential could be frightening.
Like Baggio said good spot by our guys anyway. Ah well.
-
Very Drogbaish goals from the sound of things, so the next Drogba hype will no doubt go into overdrive now, attracting all kinds of interest.
Yup, we're screwed.
Just seen the goals.
To repeat were not going to get anywhere near him.
Shit. This is really frustrating.
-
Now, if we miss out on this guy I'll be fine with it, just about. Life goes on etc.
But I swear if we sign Peter Crouch instead for the stupid prices being bandied about I will lose it.

I thought that said Youtube-born star.
Um ... no.

Anyone see the snippet in the Daily Mail (I know) today about NUFC scouting Gomis?
It said Keegan & McDermott sat in separate seats to Wise and co and then at half time they were all in the same hospitality area and never said a word to each other.
Oh man ... yet more stories of fractions and discord.
We need a positive sign from somewhere , this is doing my head in.

Emana, whose father Marco also represented Cameroon, is certainly not resting on his laurels. In fact, the youngster knows better than anyone that he has a lot of improving to make if he is to fulfil his potential.
“After every match I ask to see the clips of my actions again on the video,” said the Yaoundé-born star. “The club usually give me a cassette on the Sunday morning and I watch it on my own back at home. There’s no time to relax for top-level sportsman. I live and eat football and if I could watch the video straight after the game I would.”
At the start of the 2004/05 season Emana was unsettled and uncertain that his future lay at the Stadium Municipal. He holds no grudges against Toulouse for blocking his move to PSG, though admits that the summer of 2004 was a difficult period. “My grandmother died in June, then the club wanted to hold talks straight after,” he explained. “It wasn’t easy to get through but my family and my girlfriend have stood by me. I’m more relaxed now and I can feel that when I’m on the pitch.”
Emana is fully focused on football matters again and continues to work hard to achieve his goal: becoming one of the finest players in the world. “I’m never satisfied,” said the midfielder. “I can’t yet say I’m among the top players in the world.
“My aim is to be able to cross the ball like David Beckham, to have the power of Ronaldo, to possess the same finesse as Zinedine Zidane, and to have the dribbling skills of Ronaldinho.” The young Cameroonian may still have some work to do, but if he continues to progress at the same rate, he could be a major threat to Ligue 1 defenders for years to come.

Looks like he has a fantastic attitude and mindset, which is always good.

Agrred Abidal has been really awful and as you say doesn't do enough when he gets forward.
It really should be a head to head between Clichy and Evra. I prefer Clichy's game though. I think he is tougher than Evra and has better stamina. That guy just doesn't seem to tire all game, and he constantly gets up and down the pitch. Tough call between the two though.
