The Times says Chelsea have been offered Van Der Vaart. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/foo...icle6889008.ece Surely we should be in for him on loan. He's not cup tied in the champions league which would be handy if we get through to the knock outs.

I'd play N'Gog up top rather than Babel. He's not the finished article but at least he gives it his all and seems a smarter player than Babel already.

I think we were linked with Camacho at Atletico before. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignacio_Camacho Haven't seen much of him but he's supposed to be a good prospect.

Really enjoying them so far. Keep up the good work lads.

He sold very few players for a profit compared with Rafa. Too many bad buys. The summer 02 spend was a disaster. I liked him but it was definitely time for a change when he left.

Can't be Zidane's actual voice.

Pat Dolan is sound. Often see him waddling around Dublin city centre, the fat b*****d. He's good mates with Mick Wallace, the property developer and hangs out in his cafe in the italian quarter.

Wikipedia disagrees on his fee. I know it's not the best source but it sounds about right from what I can remember. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/José_Antonio_Reyes

Can't download it, as the limit has been exceeded. Can somebody send it on or upload it to yousendit again please?

In an old job I had, we did business with a lot of English journalists and the prevailing opinion was that 'Arry was fond of a kickback. Allegedly.

MIssed it. Is it available anywhere or does anybody have it recorded?

The guardian reckon Skrtel will start. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/au...rd-civil-action

Doesn't seem to work on a mac.

Mate of mine is going out with a Spanish girl who lived in Ireland for a few years. She got depressed in the winter and is back in Spain now. Everytime she went home it reminded her how much the winter got her down. She said moving home has improved her quality of life greatly.

Really proud of all involved. Great job.

Well done to all involved. Superb. Great progress being made. It will be fantastic if Cohen end up off the air.

Pat Dolan is a red. He's a mate's with Mick Wallace the builder and had a brief football chat with him a few weeks back. Definite red and a nice fella too. He's my favourite of the setanta pundits but that's not saying too much as most of them are brain dead. That Football Matters could be a decent show if their pundits weren't so appalling. Richardson and Lowe are great. Dion Fanning has to be a red the way he writes. He loves Rafa. Dunphy hates Rafa on RTE but he's lost most of his interest in the game in recent years. I think he just goes through the motions now and comes out with a rant now and then for the ratings. It's a pity as he used to be good but is well past it. Giles is fair and seems to have time for Rafa and LFC as a club. He's a very old fashioned pundit but calls it as he sees it and isn't biased with any agendas in my opinion.

Riera. LW is the position that most needs strengthening. I would put all of our budget into getting a quality player to replace him. Happy enough with the rest of the XI.

Vickery is a class act. He's brilliant on the World Football phone part of the up all night BBC 5 live programme. What about Sean Wheelock, Andy Brassell or Dotun Adebayo? Would be good if we could notify them too. Don't know why they are all appearing on Cohen's show if he isn't paying them. They might stop contributing if they could find out about his lies.

Herc, Carver's partner in the first series.

Dotun Adebayo seems like a really decent sort. I'd be surprised if he would have much truck with Cohen and his bile if he knew what he's been saying.

TIm Vickery, BBC south american football expert, appears on his show as a guest. I don't blame him as he probably doesn't know what class of pr1ck this guy is. Does anybody have bbc contacts to tell him Cohen has been up to? Some of the other bbc world football phone in pundits have been on Cohens show too.

Not lacking in ego.

What about Alexis Sánchez of Udinese? He's fast, tricky, young, can play either side and has done well in Italy this season. I think we've been linked with him in the past.

What about Doton Adebayo of the BBC 5live world football phone in? He's been on Cohen's radio show too.
