Reports Yekini (Nigeria) has sadly died...

Would be tempted to play Perch CH in place of Williamson due to the type of forward line we'll face... But expect the same 11 that started against Chelsea...

Yep... Classic media trap... Don't Believe The Hype...

That bit of skill amidst his dribble that drew a free kick was a rare highlight in the first half...

Always think the first penalty should be followed by two from the opposing side so the advantage of going first is reduced and pressure shared more equally...

Aye, I was listening to Absolute Radio and they had some live thing going on, somebody said they bumped into him upstairs (I think they said he was talking to a page 3 model although I was half asleep). Smooth. I'm sure somewhere reported he was to have detailed discussions with MA/DL this week about recruitment. Maybe he was in London for that? Is Pardew still married? Yep, Swedish wife and all. http://wooller.co.uk/sites/wooller/gallery/10520/dee_pardew_8433.jpg Gerri Halliwell is looking old...

Chelsea in the final without all there key players is quite an appealing outcome... Cole is on a Yellow...

Warren Barton on TS talking NUFC now...

I was going to say similar, I was at that game too and he tore us to shreds. Have been there when Gerrard's done similar as well. he is, i've got him, shilton and rep so far. and the first two's cases it's because they haven't just had one great game against us but backed it up with many very good games against us. I just went off players I've seen rather than level of performance on that particular occasion... Never thought Shilton played well against NUFC the few times I saw him...

If that's aimed at me then no he isn't but if you read my post i went for balance... Shearer is the best centre forward I've seen...

Off the top of my head and with a bit of balance in mind... Schmeichel Thuram Desailly Stam Zanetti Recoba Zidane Keane Hagi Messi Shearer Subs Southall Puyol Makelele Riquelme Beardsley Van Nistelrooy Manager: Mourinho

The irony is we might need Liverpool to put a performance on against Chelsea in the league...

LoL... Aye... Typo/Auto-correct...

George Courtney... Never fails to annoy me with his mis-informed news reports of NUFC...

Is it just me or has Lahm not being playing RB of late?... He certainly was against Real Madrid...

Williamson was quoted today saying letting HBA Cisse and... Shola do there stuff! Wonder if he's let slip how the team has been setting up this week... Would be surprised myself!

Supposedly its distrubuted across the top 2 leagues and theres rules in place that prevent stuff like what happens in La Liga in Germany...... Anyway this is fantastics new to me, i greatly enjoy Bundesliga and its fantastically run league and as competitive as any in europe but what it lacks is the exposure and money of the other top leagues. This tv deal solves the money side to an extent and hopefully they can market it better in the future. One of the reasons PL is so successful and loved through out the world is because of how well its marketed, hopefully Bundesliga can marketed in similar fashion in the future. Also yh considering this is a Sky tv deal would this mean that Skysports would show it in this country? Asked the same myself earlier in the thread... Got a feeling that Sky uk won't be showing the Bundesliga... Would be great to hear otherwise though if anyone knows?...

Wiki: Scored 21/44 and 9 assists for Reading from midfield then after moving to Hoffenheim scoring 10 goals 3 assists from 32 (13 starts) being voted by the fans as their play of the year but his second year he made only 7 appearances before being loaned out in January to Swansea scoring 7 with 2 assists in 15... Would be canny stats for a forward never mind a midfielder... I can see the sense if the price is right but he seems happy at Swansea...

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4262880/Newcastle-line-up-summer-swoop-for-Gylfi-Sigurdsson.html Kept an eye on him since I saw him for the first time playing against Scotland U21's... Scored 2 screamers and his technique stood out a mile even though Scotland scored the best goal of the night from the halfway line... Guessing it would allow us to rotate Cabaye a little more with the likelihood of the increased games and it doesn't look like Guthrie is any closer to commiting his future to the club...

Does that mean Sky (UK) will be showing the Bundesliga next year or is it staying with ESPN?...

doubt they'll rush anything. play him when he's ready, whenever that is, this season or next. If he's not ready then I agree I doubt they will rush him... I'm hoping you are wrong about the final few games being pointless though... Not getting my hopes up as I've followed NUFC too long to get carried away but even I can't avoid the simple fact that the last few games COULD be massive...

Had just been watching his YT footage as it happens last night and was wondering when he would return... Great news for the squad and league run-in... Always seems very calm and comfortable on the ball which could be vital at times in the last few games as the pressure rises...

Wiltshere out of the Euros... Confirmed...

We only got Ginola due to PSG feeling guilty about using us to screw AC Milan for more money for Weah...
