Gutted for him. On for a 20 goal season and the possibility of a world cup & had it snatched away in a moment. Get well soon lad. Nice reaction from the Citeh crowd and several of their players

Maersk

I don't think the 'journeyman' tag is accurate. He's actually only played for 4 clubs. I'd prefer to see the journeyman label reserved for players who have played for twice that many clubs and never settled anywhere for long.

What could any defensive coach do about their age?

Another toothless capitulation from a dominant, winning position. Chucking away points is becoming as tedious as it is totally predictable.

Louie Spence as Danny Higginbotham

No pressure on the lad then

Could not have expressed my opinion any better than this - spot on.

Well everyone, you heard it here first

Such a clever and witty response, well done you

They let Meulensteen spend a load of cash and 'freshen up' the squad, show big improvements in performance against Manure and LFC, then sack him anyway! Genius

Ha, brilliant - so it is everyone but Boruc then?

Reckon you might be right! Fonte?

Seems the lower end of the press are not going to let up until every single member of our squad has been linked with a move somewhere

Interesting insight mate, cheers!

Wow. Are you exaggerating a bit about Pompey?! I mean, I knew the standard in France wasn't great, but Toulouse are 12th in Ligue 1. I get it that maybe Bournemouth would test them, but Pompey?

Fair enough. I caught a bit of Toulouse v Monaco a couple of weeks back and he scored an absolute belter, but I don't watch much French football.

Although you must have seen him play more than one half to decide he's not very good, right?

To proclaim that someone has "absolutely no idea about world football" just because they have a different opinion to you is bang out of order in my view. Adrian gave a valid reason for picking Shaw over Lahm, he would prefer a natural left footer in that position.

What a rollercoaster it'd be with that line up! We'd see a lot of goals at both ends. The "you score 4, we'll score 5 approach"

LOVE this!

Stick him on ignore, I've found it massively improves your web experience...

Agreed.

Sorry for any confusion mate, my previous post was in response to KRG (the post before yours) In terms of what you say about U21's - yes absolutely - and there's most probably bags of talent besides in those leagues worth scouting, just as there is in the Championship.
