Wolves 3rd never a goal. Not in a million years. Ball hadn't crossed the line. Linesman guessing.

....is the right answer. Can't believe no one else mentioned Agent Chopra.

Yes, but it's bad for all parties... Manager can't drop him even if he wanted to (say for tactical or fitness reasons). Player doesn't have to bother his arse in training because he knows he is in the team regardless. There's no incentive to be motivated. That's before you even consider the psychological impact on team mates. Any manager that agrees to that deserves to be sacked.

Why would any manager agree to such a clause? Madness. Must be bullshit.

ffs.

Or not, considering we've already reportedly dropped interest. We also transfer listed Stevie T.

Just seen something on Twitter with L'Equippe apparently saying we're going to pay £5 million for him. Who he? There's fuck all on the L'Equipe website (or any other French site) about him or us. So just Twitter then Dave's taking the fun out of this with his fact-checking bullshit.

If they're dodgy I'd rather they were on our side.

All together now...

Luca Toni is off to Juve apparently.

Can't be right. He's already got 5 this season.

True, but we don't exactly try to play counter attacking football, do we? Beckham has never had a turn of pace but has other attributes to make up for it. Likewise Barton and Larsson. Good signing. Bargain price. I've always liked Larsson. Has played in near-enough every game this season for Birmingham so not sure why they'd sell him - particularly at that price. Chips in with the occasional goal. 5 assists so far this season. Sign him up.

Yeah, is he a Keegan or an Allardyce?

True enough. Just worth remembering we shouldn't get carried away. The same would be said if it was a kid banging in goals for fun in the reserves or in the championship. You can only beat what's in front of you but you do need to factor that in to what you take from the game, too. Did well. Still not convinced.

We could, but that'd be ingoring the fact I'd have put 4 past that West Ham backline.

Happy for him, but lets be honest, all of our goals yesterday were more about shit defending than anything else.

Leon Best reminds me of a young Andy Cole.

GET SMITH ON!

Oh fuck off. :colo:

Does Messi take another swig? Glass and a half?

Cajun IN!

Darío Conca Was always a decent player but since moving to Brazil he's filled out a lot and improved the physical side of his game. Great technique, skilful, quick, and relatively-unknown so unlikely to cost a bomb.

Another one who hasn't played a lot of football recently, but frankly, he can put a ball into the box with relative accuracy. I'd be tempted to bring him in and play him even if he had one leg.
