Howay

You mentioned 9 so not sure of which 7 of the 9 are the ones you think would get into our starting 11 but: Izaguirre would have an extremely tough job getting a game over Davide Santon, can't see that one. Kayal, Brown, Mulgrew, Ledley and Wanyama wouldn't get a game over Sissoko, Cabaye and Tiote, I'd also take Anita over all bar perhaps Wanyama. Matthews definitely wouldn't get in over Debuchy. Forster wouldn't get in over Krul. And I'd take Cisse over Hooper for sure.

He was only on loan there.

Aye by that logic Bradford City are Premiership quality.

Agree about the Bundesliga point, but that's hardly our fault is it?

Fucking bamps man, what the hell is Champions league class? Andy Griffin scored past Juventus, I wouldn't say he was a top full back. Forster played well in a couple of games but as others have pointed out he's let in goals against garbage like st Mirrin. It'd be another story altogether if he was putting in top performances week in week out against sides like Man Utd, Chelsea, spurs. That would put him in a bracket with keepers like Tim Krul. Comparing us to Wigan and Stoke shows the lack of knowledge this winnet-lipped twat has and isn't even worth discussing.

Aye I get a similar reaction, it's odd that newspapers and people are discussing it the bloke is 26 and has played footy on grass for at least 20 year I reckon he'll be fine.

bet he was canny gutted after falling.

That's a stroke of luck like, my parents were in Spain when they won the '08 European championship said it was mental. It's bad enough when there's a daft sod with only 1 pad never mind not having one at all.

Nightmare. Least you got a canny story mind!

In jeans! bet you were lifting after that.

Aye running a 5k isn't ideal on a match day like, would have been a shitter if yous had missed it. He paid something along them lines aye, went round south of France, Italy and that kipping in hostels sounded great tbh.

Good read that Tom cheers. Like the bit about your lot legging it round Milan Aye mad as a box of frogs isn't he, probably be a bit calmer over there being more settled and close to family less of a young lad living away from home feel for him, time will tell I guess. Yeah a mate did the eurorail thing over the summer and highly recommended Venice. Don't think the season will have started while I'm there mind which is a shame maybe a preseason game or something, I'd like to get in a stadium tour at the very least.

Aye he was a joker at City but like you say cant blame the lad and that Mancini didn't seem to be very strict. I've heard stuff about him rocking up to Inter training with AC socks on like but who knows really. Class must've been canny being there for that. Never got to Milan like I'm going to Venice in August so I might take a train to Milan to have a look about.

Aye he did, probably helps that he gives a shit about AC I guess. He'd really looked like he'd stopped caring what happened at Man City this season.

Aye looked like the lad sliding in got the ball, very soft penalty. Well taken by Balotelli mind.

I think it just makes his skin itch tbh, pretty sure Mario Balotelli has the same allergy, I cant see it having any affect on his performances,

Anytime I see him I just remember the bit on that Liverpool documentary where there's just a massive picture of him in his main hallway, what a berk.

Aye it's advertised non stop over here, looked canny glad to hear it was good. The following is meant to be decent too.

Never been impressed by Reina tbh really stupid decision, his defender was with the man too what the fuck was going through his head?

Never thought I'd say this but I'd rather us start Perch, the midfield is settled at the moment and spurs are dangerous tiote has been poor this season so I'd worry if we hoyed him in to this one. Unless tiote comes back and looks immense again in training.

Fucking corker that imagine the clip of a middle aged mackem in a fucking club licensed dressing gown, what an utter embarrassment. I've noticed this about them recently mind this shite anytime we win about "they're all coming out now" as if we've not been talking about our club before this. They were howling when Reading beat us, at least we were in the game from what Brock has been saying they received a kicking off Reading.

Had to put one in here. Looks like one hell of a player and to think this is only his 2nd game in the division, not many players bully Ashley Cole like he did today. Very composed finisher too, a real Yaya Toure type extremely exciting to have a player like this 23 in all.

Hope he didn't bleed all owa them nice white boots.

Aye his finishing wasn't there today but he had a big contribution, including winding Terry up enough to make him lunge in wildly and allowing cisse to put Gouffran through.

he's right Ramirez should have been sent off for a two footed lunge on Jonas. (I know that's not what he's referring too)
