http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/may/10/wolves-stale-solbakken-new-manager?CMP=twt_gu Wolves seem to have appointed Stale Solbakken as their manager. Strange appointment that.

Just look at some of the Belgian talents out there right now. "Courtois, Kompany, Vertonghen, Vermaelen,Fellaini,De Bruyne,Defour,Witsel, Mertens, Dembélé, Lukaku, Hazard"

Next season's Europa League final is at the Amsterdam Arena while the Champions League final is at Wembley.

At this rate, we might as well go purchase the entire Belgian national team!

Think we would have to excuse Mata's English.

Congrats to Mata, Ramires and Piazon on the awards. They fully deserved it. Special mention must also go to Ivanovic. Has been rock solid, consistent, clearing goals off the line & scoring vital goals.

Other areas may need changes but so is the RB. Yeah, then in 1-2 years time, we'll be going out and search for another RB again. IF you wanna talk about getting RB from Newcastle, I would suggest getting Davide Santon. Otherwise, we should be looking elsewhere unless we want to become like Liverpool and buy average English talents to be come a mid-table club!

Think Mata & Ramires are ahead of the race for the POTY award IMO.

Did alright when he came on and he should have scored with the free header. Was from point blank range ffs! Was it Jose or Carlo or both? Carlo once said that not too long ago IIRC.

David James or Robert Green are available.

Bayern have won 29 of the 30 games in all competitions in which they have scored first this season. They drew the other.

In the same camp here. And I believe he is earning more than 150k p/w.

You can throw in Bosingwa, Malouda, Kalou etc..

Sinclair is an average player at best. Has done well for Swansea but hasn't exactly set the world alight in the Premier League.

True but this is Man United we are talking about. IF Fergie had rated him, he would have kept Simpson and turn him into classy RB rather than having to go through all the problems with RB now. I get where you are coming from but you also gotta think of the future. Ivanovic is already 28 and in 3-4 years time, he will need replacement and a good one at that! With the lack of quality fullbacks in football right now, it will be best for us to snap up and quality ones or has the potential to be one now for a low price rather than possibly having to pay a fortune later on.

No wonder they lost 1-0 on the night. That black away kit!!

Obviously not! However, the worst part is, Bosingwa, Luiz, Cahill and Cole have not played as a back 4 before. It's gonna be the 1st time all 4 play together in defence in Munich.

Anyone a tad concern with that stat??

Still, no thanks. First choice or not, we need an adequate backup and Danny Simpson is not that. He doesn't have the quality to play at a big club. Also, don't forget, he is a Man United reject.

This.

Raphael Honigstein mentioned there Dzeko likes it more when he plays with another striker. We don't exactly play with 2 strikers, do we? But can it work IF we play 4-2-3-1 with Mata just behind him??

Ooops, late on this! Congrats to the youth team. It's the 3rd FA Cup that we have won in a week!

Robert Green will be free too.

Suspecting that Cabaye might have a release clause in his contract. 'Arry mentioned Ba has one in his and heard stories of a 15m release clause in Cisse's contract.

Cabaye is one. Maybe he isn't world class (yet) but he certainly is a quality midfielder.
