It's typical of football that we've seen the ugliest side of it and the more beautiful side of it all in one week.

I'd assume they'd announce it once they've signed the player?

:lol:

Changed Tevez from captain to Nani on Friday but still got Torres, Agger and Ivanovic to play so should be alright hopefully. 50+ points for the week anyways.

that list man. Not many clubs would have half of that in 2 seasons let alone half of 1. Definitely has to be up there with one of the most bizarre.

roadkill

Everton Blackpool game is a brilliant game.

I think after watching the highlights I'd probably change my vote to the 4-4. Absolutely incredible stuff.

The atmosphere was unbelievable 2nd half.

You'll always find him hanging out the back of it

His reaction for Tiote's goal has got me in stitches Pure orgasmic joy

I'm no fan of Pardew but major props for whatever he said at half time today. Unbelievable game of football.

that commentary!

Classic!

Can't fucking believe it. Amazing comeback lads. A gilmmer of hope has been restored and I've been reminded why I love this club!

I can see us bagging 1 at best. Definitely can't see them not bagging 2 or 3 though at least. Timing is almost perfect for them.

this, the money the cl offers gives the clubs in it way more spending power than the rest of the league can summon (apart from arsenal where wenger is allergic to spending money), combined with the prestige being in the cl offers means players want to join these clubs to play at the highest level and get the wages those clubs can offer thanks to cl money. The only ways to break in are either one of the cl clubs having a nightmare of a season (by their standards not ours) or a billionaire owner, the former doesn't happen often the latter option is being closed off by uefa so the big clubs remain big and everyone else is merely their feeder clubs. Fact is if man utd real madrid barcelona etc come along for tiote or enrique or whoever we are not going to be able to keep our players, don't like it but its a fact of football life If they're under contract then we can hold onto them. We don't have any obligation to sell to bigger clubs at all. thats when you see players handing in transfer requests and openly saying they want out And they can be rejected. Simples. Look at Blackpool for example with the whole Charlie Adam to Liverpool saga.

it happens with every player, if enough is offered for him it will be accepted......think ronaldo at man utd or even torres. don't see why we should be exempt. It's more along the lines of temptation to accept a big fee though, as opposed to having to accept a big fee, or any fee at all for that matter. Yes it happens in football but it's always up to the selling club if they want to sell or not. If a player signs a contract then he should be honouring it until told otherwise.

Wouldn't be surprised one bit if Mike Ashley is thinking he can get over 20m now that he's sold Carroll for so much and wants to invite a bidding war in the summer.

Talk about encouraging bids man for fucks sake.

Well that game has the potential to be a potentially big potential promotion winning game apparently
