Would love Castillo here. Yeah, it's based on essentially two games, but he seems a handy player to have around.

Mexico is going to be great in another few years, I think. They're younger players seem talented. Haven't even seen Vela yet either.

Anderson is a massive little fucker, damn.

After this game, and the game against the US, the window to steal him is closing fast. Anyone see Lee Clark in the stands?

Castillo looking good again. I'd love to think that we have scouts at this competition.

Solano playing for Peru?

God damn that just doesn't look right.

These clauses piss me off. Sit these two guys down and offer them new deals without the clause. If they refuse, sell them both and bring in people that actually want to play here. This is going to be a topic until Feb 1st otherwise. If they stay, every time they play well it will be bittersweet, because you'll fear that this was the performance that convinced a bigger club to make a move for them.

Henry has some experience playing RW, doesn't he? You could leave Eto'o up front, and toss Henry on the right. It's not as if they won't be switching positions on the fly anyhow.

Late to the party, but fuck it.

"Peeyow! Peeyow! *wide poppy eyes* Oh my god. They mean to finish me off." I actually hope he was shot at, if the only alternative is him in footie pajamas telling stories.

I think it's great News. I'd love to see Luque succeed here. As for aggression, he could have quite a lot of that under a manager that supports him. It could give him a chip on his shoulder and hopefully the motivation to make the last two bastards look like fools.

Wow, Carson is really bad at this.

At some point Milner is going to have to find a haircut that suits his head. He looks kinda special needs with that bowl cut.

Drenthe looks quality. First time I've seen him.

As soon as the gunmen squared off, he would have done that silly slapfight thing, broken arms at the elbows, stabbed William Forsythe in the head with a corkscrew and fucked Kelly Lebrock. And none of it would have been implausible.

The fact that it didn't work is proof that GR was behind it. All joking aside, I hope he gets his family out of Nigeria as soon as possible. Homeland or not, the day people start trying to kill you is the day you leave for good.

God damn Barca is taking care of business.

What do they do in a situation like this? Is there a trophy waiting at all three games?

06-07 I suppose.

Even though I can't understand it, the (I think) radio commentary of the Messi goal from earlier this season.

George Bush! Another Bramble tbh

Who is the next target? Any ideas?

That's the bit that got me laughing. How did he get fifty million to spend after that?
