Fecker will probably score against us on Saturday now.

why would Benitez want him at Naples ? Token Uruguayan or something. Naples are a decent side, they're our Arsenal you know, if you're an agent and you've a player who wants a move you spread it around that Arsenal (or in this case Naples) are interested.

What did they expect for 10 million anyway. They have players who cost double that who don't play much either.

we even had a thread about it

Cowgirls in one of 2 division title games ? Will be ugly, Vick if he's 100%.

must be tired of doing that then.

depends if he can defend, if he can't he won't get a game at Saints either.

why doesn't he get a game at Utd then ?

Perhaps similar was a clumsy word to use. The case at Clermont Ferrand has all the makings of the McCann case at first, although the difference between a tired mum nodding off in a park and a blatant abandon of 3 small children to go and eat out are not so similar. If the mother had held her nerve though we'd still all be looking for Fiona in 10 years time . All the public weeping,wailing and asking for aid from all quarters were exactly the same.The child wasn't murdered she apparently died from the results a domestic dispute but until they actually find the cadavre no-one can confirm that. No doubt the mother and step-father intended to replicate the McCanns case though. They held up for 4 months and everybody believed them apart form the odd "mauvaise langue" but in the end the mother was not sufficiently intelligent to carry it off.

Probably gives the ball away occasionally for exactly the same reason as Wanyama and no doubt Osvaldo. They just aren't used to being pressed and harassed all of the time. Only way to learn is by playing though. Gaston was sort of getting into his stride last season and then got sent off, however some of his actions are just red cards waiting to happen, most refs would have sent him off for his single legged Arkwright on Wilshere last year.

But there will always be the odd Gourcuff, 28 milion €, bout 100 K a week and the bloke's never fit. Lyon don't make a profit on every player, they've had plenty of quacks as well.

The problem is in the system, as explained by Morgan to L'Equipe at the end of last week and badly translated on this forum, the wide midfielders have a big big role on defence when the wing backs ( well Shaw and Clyne anyway) go forward as planned. We've seen Lallana defending more and more and deeper and deeper, why I've even seen him effecting sliding tackles in our own box. MP obviously doesn't consider that Gaston is either fit enough,energetic enough or inclined enough to fulfill that role so he prefers Davis or JWP or even JRod who've shown more affinity for the role. When we eventually decide to go with either Dani or Rckie but not both the system will change and there will be more room to play a player like Gaston.

We had a similar case round here a while back, Fiona aged 5, Mum said she'd gone missing in a park,national search etc and then 4 months later they admitted that she was dead, slapped by the step-dad or the mum, they can't make up their minds, trouble is the junkie couple can't remember exactly where they buried her. Obviously a pair of idiots but if they'd kept stum like a smart couple might well have done the mystery would go on for ever.

don't think so, looks like Utd are about 2/1 on to win, about 3/1 the draw and we're somewhere upwards of 5/1 to win.

If we want to continue playing Lambert and Osvaldo there's no place for a player like Gaston. Either we go #10 or we don't but you just cannot have Gaston,Lambert,Lallana and Osvaldo on the pitch from the start. I still believe the problem will simply fade away when we eventually go back to just 1 striker. In the meanwhile there's the Capital 1 Cup to advance in.

Ashley Cole is out of the Poland game now as well so Liverpool's U16 left back best get his kit together and head down to Wembley on his moped, should make it by Tuesday evening..

Available on line though.

Perhaps he doesn't work hard enough for Pochettino or can't take it if he does. Who knows but with MP if you don't work hard you probably won't play much. No great loss if we get a real 10 in instead.

he's not known as Shrek for no reason

Poland have nothing to play for, expect it to be a bit of a rout myself, Lambert might even score.

You'd think that with all their value Google could employ some decent translators as well. Interview in french is really lucid.

but Lambert scored against Scotland and Moldavia, Monternegro is supposed to be a half decent side. Anyway honour has been satisfied, Lambert has had his run out in an England shirt, the Roy of the Rovers story is complete so watch the next issue for some serious progress towards becoming a decent side again. It was obvious that it was temporary and the noises that Wilshire and his ilk were making after the last game about usual strikers being back in business soon should have left no illusion about the longevity of the experiment..

There's a lot of (over) confidence creeping into this forum of late. Hope it doesn't turn into savaging the team,the manager and the staff of the club if we don't win every game. Draw would be an excellent result really.

I don't think actual selection right now is the point. Last summer when France played 2 games in South America and had a relatively easy WC2014 qualifier on against Georgia on the horizon many of the CMs/DMs were totally out for one reason or another, some injured, some suspended so there were slots to fill. Some pretty average players got pre-convocations and eventual selections, players like Steed Malabranque (another who's never been called up by France just like Syvain Distin) and the totally woeful Joshua Guillavogui. So the real fact is that Morgan despite having what seemed to be an excellent season last year was not rated by the FFF (whether that means Deschamps or his advisors I couldn't say) to be one of perhaps the 12 DMs selectionnable for the national side. It simply means that he's either being ignored for a reason or that the standard of SFC or his own standard is just not good enough to be considered. It's the same argument for other decent midfielders in the Prem like N'zonzi who cannot frankly be considered as worse than Guillavogui or even Sissoko. Cabaye won't start against Finland as likely as not, that will fall to Matuidi who falls more into Deschamps idea of what constitutes a DM.

Ah no, that's down to the Mirror and the Sun. They do like to have their binkies in the national side, The Sun got Walcott into England's 2006 World Cup squad.
