Camoranesi is 34 in a couple of months, stupid signing imo.

They're both total gash and past it these days.

Fabulous player. I'd have absolutely no reservations about Arteta being part of an England overhaul. Controversial (Parky, don't kill me), but I'm throwing that one out there.

They won 5-6, but yeah, a bit weird to say the least.

He's spot on.

4-6.

This has just reminded me we're back on MotD

Replacement for Smith to help Ben Arfa settle

Ronaldo just laughing all the time is quite eery actually.

I remember him being one of the few half decent players they had in the Premier League.

Hasn't been given a squad number.

Can't understand for the life of me why they're giving Didier Digard the cold shoulder to make way for SPL cloggers.

While it's reassurring he clearly sees what we need, it would be pretty worrying if he didn't because every f***er on here has also noticed it.

I did say their signings were overrated like. Time will tell but for now

I know Rooney was special circumstances but I think that's all the more reason why we should be throwing in the youngsters for England now. I'd like to see Wilshere and Rodwell in particular play a part for England in qualifying.

My Dad was pissed at Bougherra's shoulder charge aswell There was nowt wrong with it tbh.

My dad was going mental at that

Seems a bit weird ordering them in straight after a game though.

What a bunch of athletes we've got then. Bet Jose didn't have any, he'd have just been having his salad and protein shakes

Harte is shit. Amazing goalscoring record for a fullback though

God damn it how amazing would it be if Boro were turboshit this season.

The thing is, even if he comes in, struggles to adapts and doesn't show his full ability - he'll still probably be better than most of the team.

Mate in 08/09 Guthrie was what 20/21 and in his first season with us so I think its bit unfair judging him on that Nolan was an experienced pro brought in to steady the ship, Guthrie was a young lad thrown in at the deep end from the moment the ship started sinking. I think acceptances should be made moreso for Guthrie than Nolan.

I think that's because if a player gets lots of appearences for the U21s they're not good enough to make the step up. The best ones nearly always breakthrough to the full squad early and hence aren't capped by the U21s up until they're 22/23. For example there is a lot of talk that Wilshere has been left out of the U21s because Capello wants him for the full team, and he's only what, 18?
