Bale's La Liga goals has been set at 14.5 last time I checked, now get that printer working.

Very good day's business, and I include my utter disdain towards Gareth Barry in that assessment.

Bendtner off to Palace it seems.

Not at all, apparently. They want both it seems.

Spanish Gimp says Herrera to Man Utd is a goer for 36 million euros.

Get in.

:scared: :scared:

Starting work at 4.30, gonna get absolutely fuck all done. Just gonna be listening to all this charade for the whole shift. I feel my manager will enjoy my Jim White mask.

Get in.

Absolutely.

Wales and Swansea defender Ashley Williams on Twitter: "All this fuss about Gareth Bale reminds me of my transfer from Hednesford Town to Stockport County."

Before my birthday in February I'd bet. Hope he takes note, the ungrateful little shit.

I quite liked him. Knew he was at Valencia last I checked, can't say I've kept tabs on him.

Bid was £10m for McCarthy, if anyone was dying to know. Can get fucked.

Interested to get Brummie's take on this, but Benteke top scorer @ 12/1 looks class value to me. There are plenty of contenders, and obviously RVP is the favourite, but Benteke should be nearly half that price, no doubt about that IMO. Suarez I think will miss too many games, Giroud, Sturridge and Soldado are all very good players but not quite what I'd call top quality marksman, or "main men" the way Benteke is. I'd certainly take any of the aforementioned over RVP who is simply too short @ 5/2. I'm avoiding Aguero simply due to Man City having too accommodate so many players. ------------------------- Champions League Juve @ 20/1 Dortmund @ 25/1 lol wut - insane value. Not much to say here, far too long for each. Both should be more around 12/1. Definitely worth a tenner of anyone's money. ------------------------ CL Group A is interesting me a lot. Man Utd's group. Shakhtar, Leverkusen, Sociedad. Now, none of the other 3 teams are what you'd call top-class as such, but on their day I'd individually fancy them to beat Man Utd. Winner odds (best odds): Man Utd 5/6, Shakhtar 5/1, Leverkusen 6/1, Sociedad 7/1. Man Utd are rightly favourites but odds on while the 2nd favourites are 5/1? Absolutely taking on Man Utd in this group. Think as an ambitious group bet, Man Utd to finish 2nd would be a good shout, but moreover, the individual games will be fascinating to bet on. Moyes' lack of European experience is surely going to count for a lot. I don't expect them to have a catastrophe and not qualify but are they fuck worthy of being odds-on. Their home games in particular will be interesting. If the respective teams don't get stage fright, they're more than capable of getting results at Old Trafford. I'm expecting - and hoping - Man Utd to be too short in the home games. So, any thoughts? Err, do it?

Gonna be a long fucking day.

f***ing Geordies, why are they moaning? Got a load of new players in back in January and now they're whinging about not getting anyone in the summer. It's all relative, man. I can see why Arsenal fans are very p*ssed off with the transfer window. Sure it's all relative. We did like 3 years of not spending in one window Arsenal have been tight with their budgets for ages, ages man and yet still everyone expects them to go all Man City or Chelsea in one summer? The talk of their bank balances and such was so stupid as well tbf. The supporters kill me when they talk shit about AW too. "Ah he's lost it, not the same" etc. It's a bitch isn't it? I agree that reports of Arsenal's demise are premature and overblown. If however you strip away the usual media hyperbole, they clearly have a lot of money and they've invested not one penny. I can completely understand why Arsenal fans are pissed off with that. They're not investing while other teams ahead of them further pull away and teams behind them catch up. Sound familiar? I know it does with me, and I'd certainly be pissed off. They're completely entitled to say they don't want Wenger, just as much as the fans who love him are entitled to say that, and I find it amusing you, me, or anyone could sit here and say they're stupid for wanting Wenger out (or in, as it were). It always gets me, the whole "why are are club X's [insert generally quite successful club] supporters complaining? How dare they!" thing. They've got just as much right to have a go about things - when justified - as you or I do. I can't emphasise enough - it's all relative. They were champions not so long ago, and now they've not won a trophy in 8 years is it? 9? They've fallen way behind where they were and don't look like reversing that trend anytime soon. That, combined with not improving their squad despite clearly having the financial ability to do so must wind them up something rotten.

They play very slowly regardless though and I don't understand it. Maybe I'm a bit "biased" here, but trust me, I know what slow build-up play is like. I actually think their game is too much to do with pace and not enough to do with a bit more thought and nous.

Fucking Geordies, why are they moaning? Got a load of new players in back in January and now they're whinging about not getting anyone in the summer. It's all relative, man. I can see why Arsenal fans are very pissed off with the transfer window.

For all the midfielders they have, you feel Spurs really do need someone like Eriksen. They have some exceptional athletes and plenty of talented footballers, but it all seems a bit "let's do this as fast as we can" as opposed to actually thinking it through. They'll be a force this year, no doubt. But it's still a work in progress.

Lloris is quality.

It's Giroud, but it's not right.

I quite like David Pleat. Yes, he'll think Sagna is a pasta and maybe, just maybe he'll think Chadli is a Pokemon, and who knows, he could be a closet racist Grandad, but I like his commentary. It's quite in-depth despite its flaws and better than plenty other co-commentators. Pleat for PM. Monopolise that possession, Dave.

No thanks, rather have Gazza Bazza.
