fletcher would be an england regular if he wasnt a jock. although admittedley that is more to do with the fact that we have a complete lack of decent holding midfield players
rooney and ronaldo may have been household names and internationals, but that doesnt mean they were the real deal when...
that is the one that is a complete mystery
its still early days though, and he could turn out to be amazing. highly unlikely though. there has to have been something dodgy surrounding that deal for it to happen
there is a difference between players coming through a youth team and bringing on young talent
admittedley, the record of home grown players is patchy, with fletcher probably the best of the lot since 1995. but the likes of ronaldo, nani, anderson and rooney have been under the wing of ferguson...
if rooney goes then it will push macheda up the pecking order. it wouldnt surprise me to see it work out in uniteds favour again as selling their star names so often has in the past
i can see him going abroad. it is pretty obvious that he is pissed off with the english media and working under...
gary neville?!
to be honest, having seen that i wouldnt read ANYTHING into what ladbrokes are saying! the chairman at boro has a pretty good track record with appointing managers (bar strachan, who it seems just hasn't worked out there). he would have totally lost the plot though if neville is...
weren't we top at this stage under coppell and further clear before he decided to head off to reading?
it's a long old season and we will have a dodgy run at some point - id take any way of getting out of this division, and if it comes through the play-offs then so be it
incidentally, if you had le fondre and gave him the chances that barnes has missed this season (taking into account some of them have been difficult), im certain he would be one of the top scorers if not the in the division at the minute
there is not one stand out striker in this league, as there has been in other seasons. peterborough and southampton have probably got the best options, but one is currently conceding so many goals that it isn't going to make much difference and the other have given themselves a fair amount of...
roberto martinez is the closest thing i think there is to poyet. his first job was turning swansea into a team that walked this league in a new stadium and then challenged for the play offs in the league above, and he was willing to leave for wigan although admittedley the ex-player thing was a...
thats pretty much what i saw happen as well - although i wasnt actually aware that there had been threats all game, i thought it was just the wanker chants and spitting that sent things over the edge
with regards to the champions chants, i dont think it was so much mocking of it but more a...
as a slightly independant witness, i can confirm that the spit happened. seeing as it wasnt directed towards me, or the pathetic attempt to push withdean wanderer over when we scored the third (which i dont think he even noticed), i felt no need to get involved. if it had have been me taking the...
