  2. Beyond Sneijder Inter's midfielders all seem a little samey. Muntari, Motta, Stankovic, Cambiasso, Zanetti and now Mariga all competent defensive mids but you only have Wesley to play the AM role. Don't you think Inter are going to need another top class technical midfielder if they want to have enough to challenge for the CL?
  3. Defintely think Celtic have seriously upgraded their overrall squad. Will take time to bed the new players into a team though.
  4. England Swiss Bulgaria Wales Montenegro
  5. We played Wales in qulifying for the World Cup in 2006 I think. Pretty sure N. Ireland were in that group too (and beat us). Aye I remember the Northern Ireland defeat - just can't for the life of me even remember playing Wales.
  6. Nice draw. Don't think we've played any of them in qualifying for a while. We'll finish comfortably ahead of the rest, with Switzerland edging out Bulgaria for second.
  7. Ketsbaia is Georgia manager now? Nice to hear he got straight back into a job after that joke of a sacking from Olympiakos.
  8. If Lovenkrands had played as many games upfront as he should have, he'd be well clear. Now I think Hughton is beginning to realise his value to the team more he'll finish as our top scorer.
  9. Shit, Football League Show. Telly off.
  10. Great wrasping volley for the 5th though.

    Okocha is just about the most ridiculously skillful player I've ever seen. Some of the stuff he could do with a football were incredible, often unneccesary, but still incredible. Beyond the tricks there wasn't enough of the important stuff to make him a great player though.
  12. Big numbers are funny. I have a Cassano shirt with 99 on the back.
  13. Will he be eligible for the U18s? And if so, would he be involved?
  14. Sky announced the KO as 8:00 according to my mate, so a canny few people stayed in the pubs a bit longer and missed 2/3 goals.
  15. Gotta say this sounded superb, especially when it was sustained for ages. Definitely better than the 'fat cockney bastard' chant, it's positive aswell as being defiant
  16. At the end of the day: 4-4-2 2 natural wingers No defensive midfielders There should be no fucking surprise as to how well we played, please stick with this Hughton! All in all though I'm absolutely over the moon Routledge was worth signing purely for the party tricks
  17. What a great source of information Wikipedia is.
  18. A marked upgrade on the lack of absolutely anything in a Butt/Smith partnership though

    Has Cassano been mentioned btw? He was the first player that came to mind when I saw this thread. EDIT: Previous page, doh.
  20. Yeah, born in Denmark though. Man City's current 3rd keeper Gunnar Nielsen is Faroese.
  21. I could be a full international for the Faroe Islands. No you couldn't. Ok, I would need a fake passport. As well as some Footballing ability. Faroe Islands is less populated than the neighborhood I grew in, and I probably was the best goalie in my neighborhood (my team won the local championship twice). Not an exageration of my footballing qualities, it's just a very small pond. But hope he turns out to be the one-in-a-million talent that place produces. Massimo Bonini was from San Marino, and he was a key player for Juventus winning Serie A, European Cup etc. So it can happen I guess. tbf San Marino isn't a small island populated with sheep in the middle of the ocean, though. True
  22. Don't really know, but a quick Wiki search shows quite a few of them end up playing in Denmark. Makes sense when you consider Faroe Islands is a Danish constituent territory.
