Pied plays at full back either side and also can play in a more advanced position. He's a journeyman utility player. Thought he was going to St Etienne though, that's what's being said down at Guichard.

But PL football has gone a long way since then; Really there is no place for the so-so in the PL any more, Villa and Newcastle have proved that in a spectacular way.

really not the type of signing you need if you're looking at the upper echelons of the Premier League, Pied is so so-so it's not real. A journeyman.

No I don't think I suggested that you are the yoof, it often happens though that a different kind of poster crops up during school and Uni vacations. That's OK as long as they're not all CM afficionados who know everything about football because they spend 80% of their time on video football games. Fortunately we don't seem to have as many onboard as certain forums, when you look at other transfer suggestion threads all you can see are CM2016 type projections. However those games do give some an altered vision of reality. If you can sign Pogba and Griezmann on CM why can't the club you actually "support" do it.

So France vs Portugal.....might have 2 euro winners in our squad by Monday. France look fragile at times and perhaps Portugal have the players needed to exploit that. Portugal look like typical major tournament winners, awful at the start, barely qualify and then get progressively better, how many times have we seen the Italians do that! Mind you playing José and Cedric has certainly helped them improve.

But have Juve accepted Ciy's offer, thet's the question.

So in the fact that the nation's "jeunesse" have been released from their seats of scholastic study for the summer might then well answer the original question.

What's a "melt" ?

But honestly what can you expect with our bowling as it is ? Take last night, if we hadn't been so awful with the ball in the first few overs then we'd probably have won quite easily. You just can't give away 13 and 14 runs an over for the first 6 or 7 overs. The instant Dawson came on we turned off the tap a bit. Best is the obvious culprit but then as we know he's only a stop gap because of the injuries to Edwards and Topley.

But some are more overpriced than others....

Overpriced anyway, perhaps they'll become a bit more realistic when thet find out that Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City, PSG, Barcelona and Real aren't really interested in him.

Especially an airhead like Pogba.....

Perhaps part of the plan is not having players unavailable for 2 months in winter every 2 years. Players that play for african nations are a bit of a problem in that respect. Anyway Boufal isn't worth anywhere near the sum being bandied about. Look at all those French signings that Villa made last year, worthless all of them in PL football. then again Kanté wasn't so dusty at 5 million.

Vastly overpriced if the figures are anywhere near accurate.

No that's xenophobia.

Doesn't look like we're going for quick runs anyway so obviously no arranged result attempt. Going to bat out the day and call it a draw at about 5 I expect.

Looks like Dawson's in hot form with the ball in the T20 international. 3 wickets already.

Didn't we get shafted the last time we did that ? Left them far too many overs to get too few runs, apparently we had no other choice, either that or a bore draw.

Dear oh dear, all the good work done by our bowlers this afternoon is now being undone by a couple of tail sloggers whacking us around the ground.

How long before any of the younger bowlers that are injured will be fit again ? More kamikaze bowling from Best by the looks of it again today.

Not a fan but it's only a shirt right. Hope they're paying us plenty to wear those kits though.

It's a different goalkeeper that he supposed to be after every day. Just the press filling space.

No doubt, that's probably why we sell all of the STs on offer.

That sounds likely. Don't we usually sell all of the STs on offer ?
