Doesn't take into account the wages - in particular, Trabelsi being on a free would probably command quite a hefty wage...

Emile at the thought of Heskey coming back. Alves it is like this - Off Figo and get our hopes up and then Simao, it all goes balls up. It's been Kuyt a close season, that's all I'm saying. TRUST IN RAFA!!!

Casa = spanish for house v v Cosa sounds like casa = Italian for thing v v Cosa Nostra = Italian for 'Our thing' which is how the Italian Mafia refer to themselves v v We're getting Ibrahimovic from the Juve fire sale!

As a muslim, I can confirm that despite being able to read Arabic, I certainly would not be able to hold even the most simple conversation in Arabic. In the same way that I can read most languages that use Roman script, but I wouldn't be able to speak or understand them. Now, that's sorted, does anyone have any transfer gossip?

Don't see the problem - play.com have written a synopsis to appeal to a Hammers fan. If they want Hammers to buy the DVD they are hardly likely to say 'West Ham were a bag of sh*te and didn't deserve to be on the same pitch as the European Champions" Can't be arsed to look it up, but I bet that the Liverpool version is biased from a red poin tof view.

I think it's more appreciation that we have a special source, who is generally forthcoming and very reliable. The last thing we want is for him to be driven away by some numpties... Having said that, I agree that Elisha must have reasonably thick skin to put with some of the s**** he gets on here, and still to return...

"The striped Barca shirts resulted in a headache for Almunia, which is why he didn't save any goals" "It was raining really heavily, which Barcelona are more used to, as the rain in Spain falls mainly on Barcelona" "The lack of tickets allocated meant that our fans were not able to make the noise that usually inspires us to victory"

That Italian feller, who went voluntarily went to minimum wage cos he'd been injured?

Probably not so funny for those fans that look like they may miss out...

127 goals in 63 games? Surely that makes him the best attacking midfielder in the world, ever???

What I don't get is if he's so good then how come he hasn't even made some appearances from the bench for Arsenal - it's not as if Wenger's shy of giving unproven talent a go.

Don't need Marca to give us this news Elisha told us a month ago...

So Steve's a flat track bully is he? Guess how many goals Lampard has scored against the other four teams in the top five this season (11 games)? I'll save you looking it up - it's one goal (no doubt that was deflected)
