David Wheater's reaction to being included in the England squad: http://www.halloweencostumes4u.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000003/4189.jpg

We really want to think about signing Bullard.

Unless of course Kasey Keller falls over due to the slippy mud and drops the ball into the goal, followed by him standing the wrong way in the heavy sleet and kicking it into the back of his own net. 2-0 toon.

Gahahaha That's our word for taking the mick out of Sunderland! Give it back!

Because a goal every other game is a totally dismal record, isn't it.

I'd like KK to set a target for Barton to score a certain number of goals. The guys got it in him he just seems to have lost all his confidence in his attacking play. At home against a piss poor fulham side should be perfect. One penalty a season Joey, then you can knock off

At least the scouting situation is improving. Remember, when Roeder was in charge, his idea of 'scouting' was asking Lee Clark who the best players he'd seen in the Pontins League on a Thursday night were.

At home against a piss poor fulham side should be perfect. That's what I was thinking. Who do Fulham play in CM alongside Bullard? Danny Murphy, both hugely attacing minded players. Which suggests that there would be space for Barton in behind to link up with Viduka If one sits back, (Butt), one bursts forward (Barton) then that should work out quite well, no?

I'd probably like to see all those go in the summer, but they won't all go, like you said. Unless we bring in the same amount of players plus 2 or 3 others.

Presuming Taylor deals with McBride then, that leave Cacapa against Eddie Johnson. Who is a big lad with a fair amount of pace. Not sure that would work very well - the last time Cacapa played against a player with lots of strength he was knocked over like a fairy again and again. Namely Benjani btw.

So what? Ronaldo is still one of the best in the world, end of.

Barton had better put in a good shift soon, or Keegan might see him as the way the fans are at the minute. Crap, that is.

Just seen the table, can't believe that Wigan are 12th Steve Bruce done a great job so far it seems.

James, Green and Kirkland is definatley the best set of keepers we have.

Emre should come in for Barton though, injury permitting.

They should have just said f*ck the player of the month, you've all played too sh*t to deserve an award of any kind.

Just 2 lovely people having a curry fight ffs

Yeah, the Monday night performance has made me settle down a bit, whereas before the last 4 or 5 games I've been sh*tting bricks and worrying about who will start and whether or not we'll get any points etc. I feel more confident about this game.

7 dropped will probably be: Wheater, Upson, Defoe, Walcott, Jenas, Johnson, Downing You heard it here first.

I think i'd prefer the 4-2 tbh. We're always going to leak goals this season, there's not going to be any massive improvement there, but we need proof that we can tonk a load in at the other end. That's frittered out since October time, where we were frequently scoring three at home. How about a compromise? We win 4-0...?

Still no Robert Green either I see.

Travesty.

A vote for Habib Beye? Getting rid of our only decent and consistent performer sounds like a sterling idea to me!
