Prone to a boot in the face?

Probably nothing compared to how he was sweating a few weeks later!

Didier Baptiste

We miss him. He was hitting form when he got injured and had got a couple of goals for us. I really hope he comes back to play a part in an important part of the season such as an FA Cup final, Champs Lge final or the final push for 2nd place.

LOL! Puts things into perspective doesn't it?

Fingers crossed. We also have quite a few homes game coming up which we should be looking to win. Utd will definitely drop points. I just hope we do not drop silly points like we did in early 06.

80s Barnes 90s Fowler/Owen 00s Gerrard

Kenny Dalglish.............. Made all opposing players look inept

Was expecting him to play even if Jamie was available. Sami would have been rested, whilst Rafa will ease Agger in the home games.

So overrated that he has played in 3 Champs Lge finals, won many titles and was the motor behind the Juventus team that won back to back Serie A titles.

Exactly just seeing yellow had to do with Barca running the show.

12km and he is getting more effective with his running. Forget Vieira, I can see him matching Davids in his prime for work rate.

www.teamtalk.com Wright facing ankle surgery Sunderland defender Stephen Wright's season could be over after just 103 minutes of football. The 26-year-old is to see a specialist over the ankle injury which has kept him out of the club's last two games. "There could be an ankle operation looming for Stephen," manager Mick McCarthy told the club's official website. "It's a bone problem rather than a muscle or ligament problem and we'll know more when he has been to see the specialist. "If he says he needs an operation, that will be his season over. If he doesn't have the op, it would be possible to get him back at some stage, but either way, the operation will need doing at some stage. "There's no real point in putting it off and trying to patch him up. He's not fit to train, so that might take him another two weeks, he could then come back and play one game and then be out for another three weeks. "To say he hasn't had much luck this season is putting it mildly." Wright suffered knee ligament damage in training just days after the opening game of the season, and has had to contend with thigh and ankle problems since. He returned in the 2-0 defeat at West Ham on February 4, but was sent off for two bookable offences after just 23 minutes. Meanwhile, the Black Cats have confirmed their Premiership trip to Manchester United will be brought forward a day to Good Friday, April 14, for live television coverage. The derby clash with Newcastle at the Stadium of Light on Easter Monday will kick off at 3pm.

Initially telling him he can leave on a free, then wanting a fee when it seemed he was going to join us, bringing Inter Milan into the equation etc. etc.

Will be interesting to see how/if we will deal with Real following the Figo fiasco.

I've got this feeling that it will either be a disappointing 1-1 or else that we will batter them by 3 to 4 goals.......no middle roads, no 2-1s 3-2s or extra-time.

Might be an idea to start Kromkamp at RM and put Stevie in the middle.

Get well soon Momo. Really sorry for the lad. I am sure it will take a few days until the situation can be properly assessed. Here's hoping!

Finnan, Cara, Sami, Didi, Gerrard, Fowler already have that status. Xabi, Reina, Garcia have the potential to be up there too.

YNWA Momo. Pretty similar incident to when Hyypia nearly beheaded that Slovenian player in the UEFA Cup. I hope it is not anything that can impair his vision etc. Get back soon Momo.
