capriccioso

I can't find a video of it; but Jose Mourinho's press conference where he named the entire Barcelona team, and mindfucked Rijkaard into naming that exact team was brilliant I have found a link though; http://www.joe.ie/ho...worst-0015081-1 Edit: I've found a video from I'm On Setanta Sports It starts at the 3 minute mark.

Why do we always play on Thursday mornings (Australian time) I'm in the same boat as I was for the Napoli game, but this time I think I will be going to uni.

I worry about Hulk. I would be delighted if we signed him, but for whatever reason I have a gut feeling he'll flop.

I have a cousin who's doing Aeronautical Engineering... I think they're the same thing?

That sounds interesting! Maybe you'll get to work at NASA

I'm not sure if this belongs here, but I put forward a motion to include as an official emoticon.

Nani was quality for about 6 months tbf. Then he fucked it all up when he did his shoulder practicing his backflips. Anyway Sturridge's ego and selfishness are excellent qualities in a striker. That ego will help him through rough periods and the selfishness should make him prolific. They are not desirable in any other position though, which is why he's got to adapt to being a winger, or we've got to accommodate for him, or he's shown the door. Another thing I've been thinking about is that Jose would never have permitted such behaviour. He'd have been whipped into shape by now, Danny, had someone put their foot down. I remember Villas-Boas shouting at him to track back and getting continually ignored, Jose would never have stood for that.

I never really knew much about him. How good is he? How good can he become? It'll be a shambolic decision if he turns out to be world class and comes back to bite us. The kids not very smart, it must be said. Throwing around smoke grenades in a post 9/11 world

He's a real gentleman, he doesn't seem to care much about wages, bonuses or even appreciation. All he wants to do is play. As a man, he's a lot better than many players at this club.

I think we'll have to be a bit Napoli about all this and try and hit them on the break. For that reason Sturridge's got to play, regardless of his recent ordinary form, he's probably the fastest attacker we've got. It would be interesting if we played Sturridge as the striker and Torres on the wing. He's been craving for that role all season. Anyway if all goes wrong we can always throw on Kalou to score one of his trademark tap ins

I don't know if its worth spending 80m on Hulk. He's a quality player certainly, but Porto won't budge unless we match that clause and he's worth no more than half that.

He's got the potential to be a 20 goal a season player. He's just not cut out to be a winger though, we're playing him out of position.

Very few. Celtic may crack it after two or three seasons, Rangers would take the best part of a decade, and the others may never get there at all.

I reckon Hilario's one of the better 2nd choice keepers floating around the Premiership. He's certainly better than our other viable option in Turnbull. Since we won't be getting Thibaut back until the end of next season a 1 year extension seems sensible.

So Turnbull will probably be shown the door by the time Thibaut returns, and Delac will take the 3rd choice spot, I'd assume. About time, he's been poor for us.

That is ridiculously phallic

Even if he does have to end his career, I think he'll be fine financially for his life. Accountants get paid well. Emotionally it'll be a bitter pill for him to swallow.

Wow, really? I'm a huge Hilario fan, he's a quality 2nd choice keeper but what does this mean for Thibaut?

My mistake; its Belgium that grants citizenship after 3 years. Which is why we should look to change over from Holland to Belgium. Of course, there may be no problem getting a work permit if we've sent a player out to Vitesse and he gets regular call ups for his international team while on loan.

Goal.com is notoriously shit with rumours. I wouldn't believe them if they told me the sun was going to rise in the east tomorrow.

No, there's nothing wrong with them, but for him, they just seem to add that creepy factor..

^ Trouble here. What's the word on Cole?

Yeah, can't afford selfishness (especially when there's no end product despite a selfish shot/dribble) at any level of football. He'd better fix himself up, or we can give him a map to Etihad Stadium. And at the moment we haven't got the resources at right back to allow a right winger a free role with no defensive responsibilities.

Salomon's not leaving. He's of far too much value when it comes to modelling for new kits

He has braces? And I thought it couldn't get any worse.
