I rated him TBH, he did miss a few chances but is still young and has all the attributes. I would be cautiously pleased if we got him.

Palacios looks hilarious but is actually class... reminds me a bit of Huddlestone only with more flair. Him and Valencia would be good buys.

He's only 29, still every chance he could put his problems behind him in what will hopefully become known as 'doing an Owen'.

One of life's ultimate questions - why do people keep buying Rob Earnshaw?

Girls name, but I won't hold that against him, seems a decent player.

I quite like the new away top, not bad at all. Awaiting a slagging...

I've not seen or read anything to suggest race has even come into this. Not sure whether it's a good move, he isn't experienced at the top level but then quality managers weren't exactly queuing up to take charge.

Ramos would be an good one to have, they need a replacement for Neville soon.

For Wenger to sign Nasri and Arshavin would be a but strange I reckon, far better to only get one and sign a proper striker, especially if Adebayor leaves. Assuming they can't do both of course.

I don't know which suggestion is most ridiculous. Ah, the classic links list!

Aye, if he's not winning the league and champions league for you he's not doing anything

The full back sitution is going to be hard to resolve, like you say players will be reluctant to come as back ups... only solution is probably a couple of relative youngsters.

I've been quite impressed with Pavlyuchenko as well, hasn't been immense but has loads of potential.

Hopefully he can pass on some of his normal enthusiasm to everyone, get Owen to sign and get the ball rolling on some other deals. There might be some heated exchanges but I don't think that's a bad thing if it gets us going.

This rule will never last, but I can understand why if they're charging the BBC and big news websites that they can't give the list away to others for free. It doesn't really matter anyway does it? The information is so freely available there's no need to publish it here anyway. What we can discuss is a bit more confusing though, surely they wouldn't have a leg to stand on trying to prosecute someone for talking about a fixture, even if they did mention the date? Seems ridiculous...

Although he is in Africa to promote his football foundation, so fair's fair.

Ah, the beautiful stats!

Shouldn't that be in quotation marks? Did I not make it up?

You don't win anything with kids.

Any business is always trying to get money in up front - that's what season tickets are for in the first place. That's just good business, sadly it's the customers that have to pay up. At the same time, if you're getting a discount and can afford it, that 3 year deal seems alright. I just hope the ground isn't full of you 3-year high rollers when I eventually manage to move home and get a ticket!

He looks like William Shatner, fact.

Young and Bentley wouldnt have played They were both called up and capped during the qualifying stages and Capello has had them in his squads. Surely based on recent form they'd be up for consideration if England was picking a team for Euros. I think Capello partly has them in his squads because of the fact we aren't at Euro 2008, so he is planning for the future. Bearing in mind that he wouldn't even be manager if we hadn't failed to qualify.

I'd never get a name and number now after the infamous John Barnes away shirt Also, I think it's a bit weird for grown men to have a player name on their back - they can only just get away with wearing the kit in the first place...

Klinsmann was my favourite player when I was younger, class act even though he played for Spurs. Who's Eddie Firmani?

I bet he did. And we know 'I understand' means 'I read it on another website'.
