He's cycled off the juice in time for the season.

I thought season ticket sales were high because of the 10 year deal. Pretty sure someone posted an article about that in the last few days.

Have to be optimistic before the season starts otherwise what's the point. I genuinely believe what I said above though.

Assuming we don't do something utterly insane like sell Tiote or Colo on deadline day then I think we're going to surprise a lot of people.

No idea how they will be able to build a stadium. I saw they had upper Manhattan as one of four potential sites remaining. Not a fucking chance in hell. Queens is the best bet.

And that the new players actually materialize and are players we actually want. It's pointless if we end up panic buying garbage.

Could do without the v neck but don't mind the old school collar. I was focused more on the inclusion of more than two stripes as well as no patch on the back.

This sounds familiar. I'm expecting a ₤35m bid in January.

Couple things from the Sheffield Wed.-Blackpool match... Why couldn't Puma give us a shirt like Wednesday's? Would look great in B+W. It's depressing looking at Hillsborough with so many empty seats. They deserve better.

Gash - I've seen so many conflicting reports. Who is actually out/doubtful/likely to play even though they have some sort of injury?

Agree with this, but Liverpool will definitely make a push. I'll be pulling for Spurs out of those three.

This is a level of optimism that I just can't bring myself to.

Poor ball from Donovan there. Should have had him in on goal.

Don't knock Jersey.

If we did that and then signed Pieters it would be phenomenal business. Can't really see how it's true though since every journalist seems sure that the move to Liverpool is done.

Has a long way to go, but I'm a big fan of Agudelo. Hope he doesn't move to Europe too soon. Needs time to grow with NYRB.

Imagine if he had hair like this. http://www.the411onhair.com/images/male-hairstyles-ginger-locks-easy-hair-21318094.jpg At the very least he'd have his own smiley on this site.

I think if you're a poor footballer it's a good career move to have a wacky hairstyle. People will notice/remember you for it and largely forget how useless you are. Alexei Lalas comes to mind. It works if you're good as well because it can elevate you to rockstar status. e.g. Carlos Valderrama

I've got Shearer and Ince (England shirts), plus Anderton, Ruddock, and Bjornebye. Lord knows how I ended up with that collection.

I bet his hair smells like the floor of a hippie murder van. What the hell is a hippie murder van? Think of the Mystery Machine, now imagine what it would be like if it really had a dude that thought his dog was communicating with him. I know what a hippie van is. http://web420.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/bus1.jpg I'm confused about the murder part. Are you saying a real life Shaggy would be a psycho?

Should not underestimate this as well as the Sammy connection. Shola is probably a really good guy to have around for a manager that came in under difficult circumstances. He's seen it all in his time here and doesn't seem like one to complain or lead a revolt. He's genuinely happy to be here and just gets on with it. It's probably a pretty nice alternative from Joey "Che" Barton. I expect to see an announcement on Sammy getting a new five year deal before too long.

I like Beckerman. Gave us a thumbs up at the MLS ASG. The Klinsmann Era!!!!!11

I thought it looked pretty empty, but it does hold just under 70k. I would guess around 50k are there.

Klinsmann looked like he was just thinking "haven't heard this song before - not too bad."
