Mr. Snrub Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Cascarino dyed his hair and lied about his age when he met the Marseille president. The days before Wikipedia. Where did you read that Midds? It's in his book iirc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Dzeko's agent claims City weren't his first choice. "I was always attracted most to joining City." That contradiction should go down well with City fans. It's almost embarrassing how avaricious all of their players are. How are the fans supposed to identify with the current squad?

Guest Heneage Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 He did a bit of an Arshavin really. He wore an Ac Milan shirt at the end of Wolfsburg season. He was then talking about Madrid and his agent said he didn't join Juve because it wouldn't have gone through till June. @Pissi: Couldn't be further from the truth.

jukeboxromeo Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 We're interested in David Wheater from Boro apparently. Good signing if it comes off, will definitely add some competition in a position that we're very short in. Cahill probably staying here till the summer too, unless a massive offer comes in.

Village Idiot Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 You're lucky Cahill is more muted this season (Bolton not needing that many backline heroics this season thanks to actually playing quite well), so you can keep him for while more.

jukeboxromeo Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Our defence hasn't been great since Allardyce left really. Under Megson we were just s***, but our more attacking approach under Coyle leaves us exposed defensively. I think we've had 2 clean sheets in the Premiership this season. The Cahill-Knight partnership hasn't worked that well to be honest, in fact the Knight-Sam Ricketts last season looked more solid. I don't think selling Cahill would be that huge of a loss really (provided a decent replacement was already there), the money we'd get would allow us to get a couple of squad players in, as well as paying off a bit of our debt to our owner and getting rid of deadwood. Then again, I can't really moan as we've got a +5 goal difference in January for the first time in ages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, we're likely to sign another CB when Cahill leaves. Think this is more to replace O'Brien than anything. He can play right-back too, so not necessarily. Anyway, I'd rather have them than Coloccini and Williamson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, I can't really moan as we've got a +5 goal difference in January for the first time in ages. I don't know, if anything Cahill looks a bit more mature this season. I remember the last one where he would just rush forward and try to win games single handedly. He doesn't try to be the hero this season (maybe because there isn't so much need anymore). I remember the Villa away game you got battered last season. He was awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be fooled by the game against your lot he's been top class in every other game he's played in this season, putting in excellent performances against the higher opposition as well.

Village Idiot Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Canales is obviously talented, but needs games and has to work in his mental strength. Every time he takes the pitch he looks anxious to impress and tries too hard. Getafe are comfortably midtable and should be able to get experience without the constant pressure of Real Madrid.
