Ronaldo

he basically has to set foot in the USA to make that a reality

that would be an ecu.... ahem ......YES!

rather have Joe Cole than Beckham in my team anyday, legs well and truly gone

rubbish, he's miles behind Joe Cole and Ashley Young for starters. Walcott and SWP are also more effective Blinkered by hatred, Joe Cole has never played consistently well for England. Walcott aside from his hattrick has done jack s***. SWP has very very rarely (almost never) performed for England. Ashley Young is the only one out of the four that has all the attributes to be successful for England and even he is not fully tested at the highest level. the premiership is the highest level

the 27 who've voted the latter have clearly never seen Mbia play

In all honesty whilst Given is a good keeper in terms of ability, he'll always be a wrong fit for a defence needing organisation and authority. See ya

Only one paper has claimed they value him at £18 million, every other source says £12 million. £8m plus Insomnia and a gentlemens agreement with citeh to leave veloso alone if we sell them given i suppose. lets hope it's someone other than doing the gentleman's agreeing "you dont have the arsehole to play Hart every week"

yes, because if Chelsea win it i am a grand richer and yes, because the idea of Man U or Liverpool winning a sandcastle competition makes me sick

Cisse and Martins, sounds good to me

You're not Bob Murray are you, he knew all about accounts. No I'm not. I think even Bob Murray would give up trying to explain the clubs finances to you though. he doesn't have to explain anything other than the success his club had when he ran it. Your talking about accounts, and I'm giving you a very successful accountant. If you think you know better than him how to run a football club........then again, you still back this DOF bollocks don't you , so you're detached from reality in both directions. Yes, that's exactly how it works, he was an accountant and since his club didn't get up to much that explains all you need to know. Just keep on borrowing a spending while avoiding answering all questions about where the moneys coming from is the way eh, Stevie. And I'm the one supposed to be detached from reality. so yo think that because Bob Murray did a good job for his club do you, matthew lad ? I suppose you do have an extra motivation here, other than being unable to admit your DOF bollocks has been shown up for what it is, and this is that your man Mike will be responsible for us playing in your local area of Bristol soon. Care to tell us when Arsenal and Liverpool are going bust, and why their supporters are so unhappy these days Arsenal are in very real danger of struglling financially, I imaigine they're in a posiiton to spend should the worse happen becasue they have been managed financially and not spent huge amounts. Liverpool on the other hand are a team waiting to collapse. and lets all hold hands, hum and hope they do

Guthrie is 21 and if he anything about him he'll force his way into the team sooner or later

Taylor, who's been at fault for a goal in the majority of the games he's played in is a better option than Coloccini? right

if they think he's worth £18m they're actually all insane

Based on what? As far as I can see he's been one of our most loyal players. He's been too good for Newcastle for quite a while now, I don't want him to leave but I won't slag him off for wanting to. Whether Man City should be his destination is questionable though. He did put a transfer request in once before after being left out for one game yes, during SBR's early days unless i'm mistaken

Anelka, Duff, Hypia

Veloso, Nolan, Guthrie and Barton = Butt sold to West Brom in the summer, fingers crossed

cheers for posting. I dont think he's a great player or owt but that's a sight i'm very very glad to see

good news, good price. Fair play, still a lot of work to do though

Yeah, Okocha, Djorkaeff, Hierro, Jaaskelainen - s*** they were! Not forgetting Gary Speed of course. Oh hang on - he came from you. Stop reading the redtops and think for yourself. As much as I loved Garry Speed, i'd hardly call any of those exciting, Speed had by far his best days with us. Okocha = one of the biggest african underachievers in recent times

Ryan Taylor would be a good addition for £2-3m tbf. Him and Guttierez on the wings would give a nice amount of balance, you bring in a CM (ideally 2) and a full-back and things dont look so bad tbh. If only we had a manager up to using players correctly

rubbish, he's miles behind Joe Cole and Ashley Young for starters. Walcott and SWP are also more effective

Hope this is wrapped up today or tomorrow tbh

in a word, yes

how's that worrying? He's been our best player since he signed for us, Exactly. Anyone giving Martins grief can f*** off. Lets sell him for 10m and buy 4 players for 2m eh? That would be fuckin class. He;s comfortably our best player once Shay goes. I'm talking about the player that will win us the most points. He's absolutely indispensable and he's massively underrated by nearly all our fans. Correction: he's massively under-rated by a section of beard strokers who are keen to point out he's as thick as mince while ignoring the fact that most of our attackers couldn't punch their way out of a paper bag. Where is Gemmill these days? Don't really post much any more if you hadn't noticed. Martins is still not good enough though - the fact that his stock has risen even with me is indicative of how far we've fallen, not how good he is. The fact that we likely can't and won't sign better these days is a function of how poorly the club is being run, not of any improvement in his ability. When he gets back in the side, he'll be better than most of the other strikers we have, but his touch will still be s****, he'll still give the ball away a lot, and he'll still demonstrate a lack of basic football intelligence. If any of that makes me a beard stroker (amazing insult btw), then so be it. We miss Martins at the minute, but only because of how s*** our alternatives are, not how good he is. Seems to me you all but admit to that in your post anyway. you do realise the effect and importance of pace in the modern game don't you? Yes dear. I also realise how largely ineffective Martins' pace is because of his pea-sized brain. racist. funny you say that, crossed my mind before actually Pretty outrageous accusation just because someone doesn't think a player is very good, and just because that player happens to be black. I think Bassong's good btw. How does that fit in with your f***ed up take on things? Wasn't it you that tried to play the racist card once before then came over all OMG CAN'T YOU TAKE A JOKE!!!11 hmm, what's your take on Geremi?

yeah, like Ashley had £2b to lose in the first place, what a load of s**** as for the highlighted bit, jesus
