    I don't think there's been that much between Jonas and Routledge this season tbh. They've both contributed.
  2. Oh aye forgot about Aduriz, scored on his debut too.
  3. Soldado is the one that shouts out at me as being a sound bit of business, a replacement for Villa. He's obviously not as good but he's still a very good La Liga player. Feghouli for nothing could turn out to be a coup, he is highly rated. Topal impressed me when I saw him play for Turkey also. The most important thing for them though was despite losing the big two they managed to keep Mata, Pablo Hernandez and Banega. Add to that the likes of Vicente, Joaquin etc and they've still got a very solid side.
  4. Why do you ask? I seem to remember that you could do but I don't ever remember us doing so in U18 games.
  5. Are you allowed to play any over-age players in youth team games?
  6. Aslong as we were safe, I'd want Blackpool to stay up for sure. However until that ever happening I want all the crap teams to do...well crap.
  7. Sounds good whether we sign this kid or not. Getting in youngsters like this was always a good idea, so It's nice to see we remain reasonably focused on doing so. Think recently the likes of Vuckic, Ranger, Kadar, Bassong etc were all brought in under similar circumstances. We've made a massive profit on one of them and the other 3 are still young but pushing for places in a Premier League side. It could save us a lot in the long run. Plus these players don't have to fill a squad position either if they are very good.

    I'm hoping if Hughton is giving him the greater responsibility of being chief playmaker he'll have drilled it into him the need to look up and pass the ball aswell as just dribbling by himself. He clearly has the abilty and vision to do so, and I think Hughton is thinking that by showing faith in him we can reap the rewards of it.
  9. Woodgate without his problems would have been far more suited to International football than Terry, that's for sure.
  10. Pools look like relegation fodder here. Should have got a pen before though.
  11. The comeback was complete in the 81st minute, Rajko Rep's long ball over the Belgium back line collected by substitute Haris Vučkič who expertly lobbed Simon Mignolet from the edge of the box. Putting it past a mackem aswell

    Joey Barton

    Barton, if he can maintain his current form, is the kind of quality player that should separate us from the dross at the bottom end of the table.
  13. Unfortunately I think Milan are gonna be shithot this season. Their front-line is incredible, the probably wont even need anything behind it.
  14. Get in, Adam Johnson scored
  15. Cassano proving today why he should have been playing for Italy at the WC.
  16. Nice that he seems to be starring for each respective age grouping at an earlier age than you'd expect. Captained the U19s at just 16, scoring for the U21s at 18. He's ahead of the game all the way.

    Thought you lived in Uruguay? Japanese? Uruguayan?! I'm Geordie you fuckers
  18. Happy. I predicted 1-1 with Carroll scoring on the other thread.
