Might as well say it's impossible for such a player to deserve a 10 in anything then, since you're basically judging him on the Champions League finals he didn't play or score in.

Jesus fucking Christ.

And also Shearer was a goalscorer above all else, it was his most prominent 'attribute'.

I disagree. Out of the thousands and thousands of players that have played down the years you're saying that only a handful deserve a top mark for goalscoring, and that the player with the best goalscoring record of the last 20 years in England doesn't get a look in, howay man.

Mental.

How doesn't he deserve a 10 for goalscoring like? Because in the history of football, there have been better goalscorers. Giving him a 10 for heading is ludicrous; Ferdinand and Carroll are two of our former players who did it better. I wasn't asking about heading, I was asking about goalscoring. To give him less than 10 for goalscoring given his record and clear goalscoring instinct would be ridiculous.

The "identical lettering" thing sticks in the throat as well, just indicates further that Ashley and Llambias take great pleasure is being deceitful to the fans.

I noticed before the Real Madrid match earlier on that they played a sentimental piece of piano music during the minute's silence. What the fuck, I don't watch much Spanish football really - is that the norm?

I think Shola can fuck off tbh, I'm not arsed if he magically managed to not spectacularly fuck up when he came on yesterday.

Funny how Dresden always knows better than everyone else about everything.

Doesn't make a blind bit of difference though, does it.

It just takes the piss that he gets to have it both ways, spends fuck-all on transfers yet slaps his tatty brand all over the shop. The picture Dave posted is such an eye-opener - the ground's definitely tarnished now, Ashley's just cheap on every level.

Yuk.

I love it how everyone's going with £20m as his asking price.

Surprised you say that tbh Wullie, I think the tone of it's spot-on. The more I listen to it the more I like it and I do think they're very funny. Will maybe give Tuesday Club a listen since you both recommend it.

I'm massively late to the party with this but have recently got into / become obsessed by The Football Ramble. That's the kind of football chat I want to hear, they're both knowledgable and hilarious, it's fantastic.

It's interesting like, because it would take a hell of a lot to turn things around now. Liverpool might be best off seeing if they can get £20m for him off someone sharpish.

Football journalists are generally worse aye, so up their own arse it's unreal. Agents are the worst, when one of them is on the radio I wonder why I bother with it.

Bold moves by Neville and Souness to try to out-grey-suit Jamie Redknapp today, just noticed.

Tbf the hat trick against West Ham, he came off for the round of applause, and against Arsenal (4-4) its was Harpers elbow drop that done him in that game. Yeah, just seems like one of these weird quirks to me, don't see any reason why he couldn't last 90 minutes. Attacking players will always get subbed more than defenders anyway.

Jesus Christ. Give a fish to Ramirez and you'll feed him for a day...

The daft thing is that Torres did really well to get himself in that position, I was just about to go "That's class Torres, smashing goal" then made some fucking weird noise I don't think I've ever made before instead.

Oh my God. I actually feel really bad for him, Christ almighty.
