Fast with inconsistent end product. Like a lot of African players really. Like a lot of players from every single region of the world. But seriously, the Nigerian team is a great example. Think Oba Martins epitomises it really.

They're likely to have Kanu as well. I think he would be brilliant in the Championship. Not biased at all no?

I know, absolutely brilliant. I think he got a bit too much stick after that though. He wasn't too bad, the rest of the team were worse.

I will never hate Scott Parker, ever since he nearly decimated Joe Cole in a tackle but didn't give away a free kick. Legend. http://im.videosearch.rediff.com/thumbImage/videoImages/videoImages1/youtube/rdhash328/e46TATx0SLI.gif

Definitely

No idea, never been in a contract negation, so I'm just sprouting s****. Chances are he wanted a 2 year deal, but they've sat down with him and offered him one, with a view for a contract extension if things are working well. Understand what you're asking, but I guess it goes back to 'gentlemen's agreement' deals. Like Dan Gosling and Everton then

But surely the option to have another apple after the first apple is normal? No-one eats an apple and guarantees that they won't have another apple afterwards do they? Edit: this is starting to not make sense. I mean no team signs a player telling them 'YOU WON'T GET ANOTHER CONTRACT'.

But surely if it's the first case it applies anyway? Like saying '"I'm going to eat an apple and I might eat another apple after that", means fuck all, because I might decide the apples are shite after having the first one.

Does 'option for a further season' really mean anything?

You have just blown my mind oh god

€550m?! That's disgusting.

Would love to see him in England, even if it is with them mingers. They could do with a player like that. Carrick/Fletcher/Hargreaves/Anderson/Scholes are either not very creative or collecting their buspass.

You think so? What have we done!

Newcastle sign mental defender. Might as well get Joe Kinnear back again.

'top pro'

27,546

Blackpool invite Sunny for trial. Sunny: "No thanks."

Sol Campbell is a psycho. We've had enough of them. When we see on SSN there's a large black man standing on top of St James park naked and threatening to jump I'll be all like 'I told you so'.

Well our youth policy didn't last very long. Awful signing.

It's nice to discuss it. I think we are all smart enough to realise that most of the players linked won't come. I just like thinking where they would slot into our team. Wouldn't be a very active thread if it was 'Ben Arfa linked' 'nah, next.' 'Murphy' 'nah, next' and so on.

Sounds eerily like my FM dealings actually.
