They're going to the world cup, so I think they're ranked higher than Chile... Not sure though. Posts merged: They're #21 in the FIFA World Rankings.

I can't wait for this game (bar Poll). I think we'll batter them. COME ON REDMEN!!

He looked really lively when he came on. Very good cross for Garcia. But I fear that he might be off loaded in January. I don't think his future is with us.

Hello breakfast.

The move to Russia was very weird and I always felt it was just a matter of time before he'll go to Chelsea.

Morientes is getting better and better. His work rate is impressive and his touch and vision is doing wonders for our attacking play. His first half yesterday was the best football he's played in the red shirt. And I include Monaco's red shirt in that.

It's forum lore now. Wether it's true or not is not important.

WHATCHA GONNA DO, BOWYER, WHEN CROUCHAMANIA RUNS WILD ON YOU!!

Sami and Carra were outstanding. Shearer and Owen hardly touched the ball. Our defence is frightingly good.

Great signing. And my Crouchamania shirt just arrived this morning. Oooh yeah!

So? You said compare to Fowler. So I did. And he also celebrated after scoring against us, just like Owen would've done if he'd scored. Luckily he didn't touch the ball for 90 minutes.

It's funny, I remember him celebrating all over the place like a maniac when he equalised against us in the last minute at their place two seasons back.

This is the problem for me. I don't think people's problems with Kewell have anything to do with how he performs. Yesterday he did exactly what we want from a winger. He beat his man and provided some quality crosses. And still people are moaning. I think it's down to how he performed for Leeds. Or atleast how people remember him from that time. People seem to remember Kewell as some footballing God, and no matter what he does he can't live up to that now. I wish people would realise that even though he was great for Leeds, he was also very inconsistent and drifted in and out of games.

Sammya begs to differ...

I can't wait. We're a joy to watch at the moment. It's a derby and anything can happen, but I feel really confident we'll give them a good hiding.

I thought he did really well. Gave us width and gave their full back hell. And a few quality crosses, one to set up the goal. Basically did his job and is starting to look the business.

He's one of those players we seem to be linked with every year just for good measure. Just like Malbranque.

Decent defender but not as good as he was 2-3 years ago. He wouldn't be first choice here and I don't think he would come to sit on the bench.

Put it all on Crouch. It's money in the bank.

If you take away the fact that they're s***, they are quite decent. Well.. Actually not.

That's the first time I've seen Niklas Bendtner, the Danish lad. Looked quite useful. Not first team material, but looks like he could become a good player.
