  1. 'This time round we've secured all of our targets in every position highlighted by the manager, something that is really exciting and quite unusual' Interesting statement by the usually careful and precise Parry. Daniel Alves was considered by many to be top or near the top of the target list. So if we have 'secured all of our targets for every position' ...
  2. And we shouldn't pay them a penny more
  3. I was impressed but not £10 million impressed. He will be priced out of a move to us by his Chairman judging by his previous comments (nope I don't have a link).
  4. Players complained about the state of the pitch about a month ago and were told that nothing would be done about it until after the Barca game. Source. John Terry's agent(s) ... brother who happens to be my son's football coach (and a damn fine fella he is despite his blue shirt)
  5. Thats the poorest performance I have seen from us in Europe in a long time. We shouldn't have to be cranking out the 'only half time' stuff because they were a poor side given confidence by the fact that, by our standards, we were even worse.
  6. We were very poor up front. Kewell and Garcia in particular offered little or nothing all night. Benfica were there for the taking and we didn't have it in us.
  7. Looks as though Stevie G has been at the chest expanders for the new site
  8. Fowler's off the ball running was excellent. Kewell's crossing was Sunday football stuff always tried to beat the fullback (and failing) instead of a quick cross.
  9. Darn! Just when I was about to get carried away with the optimism of this thread. Then again, if I balance Cheesy Charlie with Steve 'the wandering manager' McMahon ...
  10. Upset yes, depressed no. We were much the better footballing side and controlled much of the game in a manner I haven't seen for many a year. We lost because we made a tactical error in the closing minutes. We will learn from it and push on.
  11. I did think of adding a comment on the quality of the source (the fat man himself) but decided that others will make their own minds up on this. Simply reporting that he is still claiming that no clause exists - he went quite red in the face at the time so that may offer some clue.
  12. At the press conference when Owen signed Shepherd was categorical that no such clause exists. He was still saying the same thing in private as late as two weeks ago.
