Anyone got a link to a picture of the whole team with the Community Shield?

s*** .. 29 years ago ...

Be honest, the first 20 minutes of the second half was pretty 'BORING'

Alonso aside, every transfer signing we've made in the current squad, cost around £7M or less

King Kenny joined at the age of 26, he won a few trophies on and off the pitch .. Stevie Gerrard is 26 ....

As a left back, defensively, Riise is at best distinctly average, as exemplified yet again the other night. (I fear for us a bit, down that flank in the second leg) On the other hand, as a squad player, who excels offensively against drivel, he is a very useful player. If an offer is made, and it is silly money, I'd be tempted

Bellamy could be very similar

I am very surprised, and a little worried, that Warnock has not been shown the door

If we are there or thereabouts on the 21st November, I'll be visiting the bookies

What time would suit them ?

I tried that, but they need a pin and security code ?

I'm doing the Telegraph World cup Fantasy football. I forgot to get the paper on wednesday to get the player points. Does anyone have them to hand ? Any help would be much appreciated

Ballack, Shevchenko, Rosicky, Johnson, Berbatov, ...

Quotes/Evidence ?

If Rafa was interested in Villa, surely he would have used the Nando deal as leverage ?

Hope you are correct, however, I disagree on your assertion, that left-back is not a priority. IMO, teams have and will do so in the future the left-back weakness (in a similar way that the vastly over-rated (defensively) Ashley Cole, is targetted Internationally).

The Lyon left back, has for me been the best French player on the park in their last 2 games. Good players like Zidane and Makelele clearly rate the guy, based on the amount of the ball he sees. IMO, Warnock will never be the answer, Riise is decent going forward, but average defensively. The Aurelio deal (if there ever was one) shows no evidence of happening. Worth a look ? Too costly ?

It's similar in at least 2 ways: The Simao deal, was a supposed to be a done deal ... Benfica kept raising the price, ..

Spot on. Have to say, IMO, he's still way better then Warnock

Have to agree, deja vu Simao

You omit the fact, that benayoun walked past Riise as and when he liked

We'll have to disagree on Riise, the FA cup final was typical of him for me. I agree with you on Aurelio

Traore looks like he'll be sold. Warnock isn't upto the job. Defensively, Ginger is average at best. Aurelio ?
