Tbf, look closely and he's in the penalty area.

Mutch replacement? Dunno, different type of player. Maybe Buckley will go inside? Also interested to hear from brummie how decent/not decent Andreas Weimann is. He's very, very highly rated indeed. Austrian lad, played for us this season away at Rapid Vienna - his boyhood club - got a pretty bad injury, but he's a very promising player indeed. Hope he gets some run outs for you Seen the Villa kids play a handful of times and he was the one who stood out, but in a non-obvious way - if that makes sense. Bannan, Albrighton, Delfouneso and that kid from Watford looked good, but something about Weimann really struck me. Classy and clever. We're talking a couple of years ago though, don't know how he's come on.

Hey Brummie, which Villa fanzine editor was on btw?

No Carrol? He's injured Look at their bench ffs The other day we played a friendly and the following played - Woodgate, O'Hara, Keane, Gio, Kranjcar, Khumalo. None of them are even on the bench in the above line-up, King and the Hudd are injured. Our squad is mental. We haven't even mentioned Bassong. The problem is, I still see our first XI as probably the fifth best in the league. Our second and third XIs are blinding though...

Well, nobody really knows, but supposedly Quinn and Jamie Redknapp have said 6M. That's supposed to be sell-on fee plus some money still due to us, God knows, but lookee here http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/8802445.Quinn__time_needed_to_sign_Bent_replacement/

That makes more sense, can't believe he was on the Bosman list.

No Carrol? He's injured

The lad always knew he was going to play football so could not give a s*** about school imo. This is the sort inside banter the net was made for Spurs ITK gets everywhere...

Well there's two words in Tottenham Hotspur and three in West Ham United (five in total), and it's a fusion of North and East London - we could call it the NE5 Stadium?

Jesus, what happens if he becomes beige!?!

Not penny-pinching, 200M quid-pinching. Apparently that's the cost difference between the two options. Are you hiring the Wembley contractors for WHL like? I know, that's what I thought, but I think it's because the council essentially want us to regenerate the whole area. That's why David Lammy's (local MP) getting queeny. The whole thing has been such a pain in the arse. I honestly don't know what to think about it; which side to come down on.

Do I really have to set Partridge onto you? Oh, go on!

Latest completely-made-up-but-mildly-plausible rumours suggest Keane and Pav to Sunderland if we get one of the big targets in. What would you guys think if this was true?

About Precisely 50/50 between CM and LW last season. He's filled in at LB for us too, as Dave suggests. Lovely left foot, but very one-footed. I'd have been happy to keep him as a squad player, but if we can only have the 25....... Probably more importantly, he's already made clear that he's not happy to just be a squad player at Spurs, and that's fair enough, at least he's honest. Not sure he'd be happy to be a squad player with you guys, but he'd be higher up the pecking order. Put it this way, I'd play him ahead of Smith or Guthrie at CM, and he could cover LB and LM.

Go on, send him off for lols.

So out of the Top 50, 7 Man City players, 5 each for Man U and Chelsea, 4 for Liverpool (!) and 1 for Arsenal. Plus the high end figures will be simply astronomical. Makes our fourth last season even more impressive, but we cannot hope to compete if we don't find extra revenue from somewhere. Unless the new regulations have some effect, this is pretty depressing.

Their width is essentially Johnson, and he's had to play left back the last couple of games. Downing makes sense.

Really? I tend to think it's the other way around.

That's why they want Carroll. Looking at the team they've built it's clear they need that big target man, both to deliver to or to help hold up for the other attacking options. Crouch is definitely not it. Probably the last missing piece of the puzzle between them and consistent top 4 finishes + the odd trophy. Dzeko would have been perfect, if we had silly money. How much is he being paid per week? I hate to say it, but Carroll might be awesome in that team. Won't happen, but still.

Aren't players still supposed to be booked for waving the yellow? Would have been magic that. "Yeah, Rafael, I agree. Wilson, you're booked. Rafael, 2nd yellow, you're off."

I clearly taught Mystic Meg everything she knows. Good game this. Can't believe how much space Torres is getting at times.

Liverpool really don't look great. I'd back Everton to win this.

Sorry lads, but....come ON Wolves!

Always knew that curly-haired munter was a racist. To be fair, he's been called an ape himself for years.
