What's going on? Any updates?

Early days yet.. Them two will get a run-out. I'd still fancy us to win, regardless of them two coming on. Although, Ben Arfa's gonna come on at some stage and i've a tenner on him to score..

ya i saw these earlier, didn't I....

100%

Wouldn't up to speed on that fella. Heard the name tho... Just made another lovely little side-bet with two suckers at work.... €5 on B-Arfa to score tomorrow.. Them betting against..

Looks like its the end of the Routledge career revival so...

Safest bet for win would be the same team as usual then bring B-Arfa in with half hour left.

I don't think Mancini will grow, I think early sackings are a "no-no" in the Owners' handbook these days... Tell that to Kevin Blackwell. Don't know him..

Cheers! That's 28-1 with PPower, the BArfa bet there...

I don't think Mancini will grow, I think early sackings are a "no-no" in the Owners' handbook these days...

4-0, nolan first scorer thinking i should have put on "win after coming from behind" now...

Got odds of 75/1 for the match Saturday... What do u reckon is the bet?

Roof scene was cringeworthy.. The main fella annoys me a little too. He's just 'over-the-top' sound sometimes. Loved the show tho, in all. Well paced. Doubt it was the same script-writer tho.

He's our most capped player of all time Given should over take him one day though. and there he goes and gets a goal for us, typical There was one season for Everton where he was good tho.. When they had Marcus Bent up front, that bald midfielder in the middler(what's his name) and they were playing a 4-5-1. It was the best i saw Everton. Less reliant on free kicks. Had a good system on the wings... Still don't know how he's most capped. The Cascarino head on em!

Is that yourself & the brother in the park!

Darren Ambrose - underrrated player imo...

When Wise was appointed, i was thinking the same as i think of this situation... He's an ideal backup, if McDonald starts getting stick. They can say then "Oh you know what, we've a fella on our roster here that's managed a team before. We'll get him to fill in for a while" It sounds like the players there want McDonald to stay. So maybe, that's the reasoning behind it. Staunton tho...!! That has to be a piss-take!

could someone pm it on to me thanks?

Scotland have a better player in 8 positions so I don't know how you reach that conclusion to be honest. Doyle is 8 in 35 not 9 in 34, and Scotland have more depth I mean Boyd is nearly on 20 and can't even get a game. I'd fancy Scotland over two legs any day. ya i reckon Scotland might take them over 2 legs. You can't beat a good centre midfield and backline... Ireland have no midfield. They're bypassed every time.. So shit to watch..

He's doing it again right now... I don't think they're going to make it to 4th this year.. We were never this bad in fairness, buying TV players. Spurs must have no scouts, they just kick the feet up and watch the telly.. Palacios, one week after a good game against (who was it?) Liverpool (?) and Spurs buy him. They are atrocious with money...

Yep would agree with first formation anyway...

Nah, give Perch time i reckon. Was same with Enrique when he arrived. I'm guessing he's just a little intimidated playing in front of the big crowd..

YA!! I thought it was tough alright before we even got Tiote. Had Smith, Barton, Raylor, Nolan, Carroll. Was a bit snobbish at the thought of one of the most brutish looking teams we've had in my time anyway.. But i like it now. We need a leg-collector. Smith can go back to hanging out on walls with the boys now & keep the bench humoured...

He's more like a shit version of Maradona; left footed playmaker type. Should give us that extra quality boost and separate us from the real shite at the bottom of the premiership. The only problem is he'll be skinning and taking the piss out of Nolan and 'Smudge' in training, he will leave them for dust. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, and I just hope that they don't all start playing silly buggers when he's showing everyone up. It's imperative that he gets on with Carroll so they can build a good understanding and so that Carroll won't batter him. If he gets mates with Tiote and Carroll no one will mess with him. We could have a decent little midfield going there, Barton/Tiote/Arfa/Jonas is not bad going at all in terms of survival. Probably stick Nolan in there as well if we're only playing one up front. I don't think it'll guarantee us drifting away from the lower teams.. Unless he's very unselfish in keeping the ball, etc. & playing the possession game. If he's acting up, losing the ball & going head first on attacks, i think we're screwed.. You could start hearing him giving out to the players for not speeding up and helping him out. He could be all alone on his own runs. Nolan won't be able to keep up with him anyway.

All joking and nonsense-talk aside, on a serious note, where's Ben Arfa on fantasy-Premierleague?
