Newcastle...Pardew knows all the drills for lads in trouble with the law. They've abandonned Gomis cos Lyon want too much and will no doubt sign Remy....His case will be dropped as likely as not (after he's paid up of course).

not so much Spanish gems but "Argie" gems are somewhat restricted by our work permit criteria. Plus not all of them appear all that good in the PL, it's a whole different world to Spanish and Italian football.

looks like Alf Garnett

where have Man City gone then ?

I too do not set foot in the "poormarket" emporiums.

why ever not, if you were a handsome cabby it would be quite legal provided you had one hand on the carriage at all times.

But Suarez is probably the world's best striker and he plays for Uruguay. Bale is probably "world class" and he plays for Tottenham and Wales. You don't need to play for Barca or Spain or Brazil to be World Class; In fact nationality rules out 2 of 3.

Nah that was Jilted John

Because in limited overs you just need to be able to score more runs than the opposition..we have batsmen who can do that. In the 4 day game you need to be able to bowl them out twice (unless they commit silly declarations) and as we all well know we don't have the bowlers to enable us to do that.

you can 25/1 on Mayuka being our top scorer next season.....probably a better bet.

Valencia are supposed to be interested in Fred perhaps they're a couple of bob short on that.

If you write it on a £10 note they will.

they scored from a penalty right on half time and Lallana missed a shedload. Early season TV game, The rest has disappeared into the mists of time. Just remember Lallana's woefulness, we could have had the game stowed away long before Blackpool scored.

His finishing may have been there against poor defenders and keepers, isn't at the highest level, needs too much time.

Ah but when sentiment gets you PL points Man U and Chelsea will get relegated.

not much left after that then is there. Just a bloke going round and round and finally disappearing up his own rear end. What's the point of beating 8 opponents and getting barged off the ball by the 9th or even worse tripping over your own feet. Not a PL player.

Lallana has always had trouble with his finishing. Remember slating him for awful misses in our relegation season. If he'd been efficient we might not even have gone down. Blackpool at home was one of the worst accumulations of missed easy chances known in the history of football and then we lost 1 - 0

PL is far different from a couple of friendlies. Chambers has as yet proved nothing. We'll get a better idea next week against Celta.

Essex n the T20 tonight, we're getting hammered just now. Wood gone for 19 in 2 overs, Griffiths for 11 off of his first. We'll be looking at 8+ an over again I think.

aren't they off at some tournament somewhere ?

perhaps on other occasions yes but in those 2 incidents all that was needed was to steer the ball away at the appropriate moment. Just a warm up game so it's of no great import unless it happens in a real game. Then again Boruc would probably have held onto the first shot for the first goal.

probably because of some quirky clause in the "Universal Fair Treatment for Nutjobs and Whackos Act of 1988"

probably why it's 8 quid then. So if err 9000 of you go and Eastleigh give us all of the money we can pay them all this week. How we can support 70K a week'ish for players who contribute nothing and are never likely to contribute anything further just beats me. We need to ship them out even if it means subsiding them. Because if we don't and we don't have 25 over 21 first team players we'll have to name the appropriate number in our PL squad...PL rules

probably put in a few crunching tackles in training to show our CBs how it's done, especially after they conceded 2 soft goals on Wednesday. Bet Poch wouldn't have conceded either of them even at 40 odd.

no talk about Hulk and Monaco on L'Equipe TV though , which is strange cos PSG and Monaco is all they talk about. If there was anything to say about Hulk they'd be saying it. There's a nightly feature of about 10 minutes "Cashico" which is exclusively about the two of them .
