Okay personally I thought he was worth at least 15 mill last season even in that last year of contract but Real Madrid still can't be serious to expect a £10 million profit on a player they did nothing with and who is about their 5th or 6th choice striker now.

Good business for Madrid and Collina had a bit of a shocker tonight. Shame that really, Everton can feel robbed.

You need to be asking why newcastle have put in such a high bid? Is it because they feel guilty over the Woodgate deal, could it be that Real stil owe a few million for him and newcastle have possible included that as part of the deal hence the reason the price appears to be high. Real paid £13.4m for him last year, Id prob say they stil owe at least £8m for him, it's possible that newcastle could effectively wipe out the remaining debt as part of the deal and be getting Owen for £10m.

*accepts that this is a really far fetched theory*

Everton should accept the fact that Collina blew his whistle for the foul before Ferguson even made contact o put the ball in the net. However things like this happen all the time, Bent gave a slight shirt tug and got a foul given against him, if ref's were to penalise every foul that happened on corners, there would be a minimum of about 7 penalties in every game.

I remember an incident last season where i think it was frank lampard blatently blocked john terry's marker, obvious foul however the ref didnt give anything and it allowed terry a free header and he scored.

It all depends on what the officials can and cant see, last nite i heard collina's whistle go before the goal went in, however the tv claimed it was the linesman who gave the foul and if thats the case, collina was only doing his job and using his assistants.

*i cant believe i'm sticking up for a ref*

Souness has ruled out the year long loan option

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...em/4182612.stm

Souness said: "As I understand it, the loan is not an option, not a chance. Not when we've made a whacking great offer for him that's been accepted. "He is contracted to Real Madrid and it is not his decision."

He wants to be careful with what he is saying.

Chelsea did have country protection, you silly cunt.

Liverpool didn't, because they were given an extra place in the competition.

Chelsea are ranked lower in the seedings because in the past 5 years they have not performed as well in Europe as any of the top seeds. It's pretty simple. It requires an attention span and a memory that goes back more than a few months, but then, still pretty simple to understand.

Absolute no need in that you fucking stupid peice of shit, I asked a simple question so there's no need for that sort of a responce!

It still doesnt make sence as to if Chelsea have the protection and Liverpool dont then if Chelsea are an english team as are liverpool so how do they end up in the same group as another english side, where's the protection there ?

You stupid dickhole, Liverpool weren't classed as an English side because they have no country protection. They didn't qualify as a team put forward by the English FA, but as winners.

What the fuck would it even mean if Liverpool had no "country protection" if another English side couldn't draw them because they did? Are you really that fucking stupid? Does it not even look a little bit stupid when I put into words for you there?

In short: Chelsea could not be drawn against any other side designated as an English qualifier or in the same seed group as them.

lol Big Dean Windass might be on his way to Wigan at the tender age of 36.

I fucking love the guy as his attitude when played for boro was spot on. I hope if he takes the chance that he does well, I also hope if Jewel does sign him that he will give him a good chance and a good run in the team. If he is only buying him as back up then FUCK OFF JEWEL LEAVE HIM BE AS HE IS DOING WELL FOR BRADFORD AND I LIKE TO SEE HIM KNOCKING THE GOALS IN AND DONT WANT TO SEE HIM SAT ON THE BENCH OR IN THE STANDS!!

Last I heard early this afternoon was that Colin Todd had told jewel he wasnt for sale in his opinion but by all means speak to the chairman, Jewel faxed a £450k bid,which was initially rejected by Todd but bradford have accepted it and said the final decision rests with the player himself.

Yeah I'm pretty sure UEFA have a ranking system similar to FIFAs, basically because Man U have consistently been in the Champions League for a long time they have a much higher ranking at this time than Chelsea.

Solano's red card appeal was rejected. ahhh fuck you O'Leary you ugly, whinging sack of shite. Accusing Hughes of cheating

Claiming there wasn't any contact when there clearly was I'd have extended the ban for wasting the FA's time with an appeal.

I fucking hate it when people give it the "He's not that kind of lad, he wouldn't do something like that." It sounds like the kind of thing stupid middle class parents say to the police when their kid gets arrested for nicking stuff to fund their drug habbit.

He will prob start on the bench, I doubt Souness will start him as he hasnt had anytime to get use to his team mates, either way it could prove to be a good move or a bad move.

If he starts him, the other players arnt use to his style of play and vice versa so it might not work, however Man u will also not know his game so his movement might allow others to break through the man u defence and get shots in.

If he benches him then the way newcastle have been playing of late man u will pass the ball around and the service to shearer will be limited, however, if newcastle can keept it tight like they did for the first 80mins against arsenal, then they could bring him on and add a new dimension to their game and again give man u something different to think about. However at the same time if souness makes the sub to early then ferguson will take a look for a few minutes, asses the situation and then use one of his subs to counteract it.

Either way it may or may not be that bad a debut for the lad.

If Luque plays on the left he'll be up against Wes Brown. Hmmmmm...

He'll play up-front, if anywhere. I'm thinking he was signed as a striker. Shearer needs a player like Luque up there with him, to get through the running, since Shearer is practically stationary these days.

lets sign a forward that we r screamin out 4 and play him wide left then move him up front 4 the final 5 mins, thats what we need! the loque's (hehe u like that dont ya) that shepard was givin souness during that game tells ya souness dont have much longer left!

Its the same at boro, i left as soon as the 2nd went in, why take of the 2 players who give a fuck and were interested in the game and looked like they wanted it at half time? fair enough frankie was diving in a bit but he was more focused then downing (who was shitter than reizeger) and bring on pogagtez (who didnt look fit IMO & was to exposed by downings lack of interest) and take off our best outlet and most attacking player of 1st half in morrison 2 bring on shitieta 2 take him off after 10 mins??

maccarone wasnt given a chance as we basically went with 1 up front in viduka who had 2 on him everytime yet we stil tryed to put the ball in the air everytime to him/ Ugo was shit, he worries me everytime he gets the ball as he needs 5 mins to think b4makin a pass. no excusses tho, charlton simply out classed/passed/paced us and wanted it more than us. if we dont sign any1 b4 wednesday we are in 4 a dog fight. yakubu was lost, i heard a rumour he can only score at fratton park so he will only get a max of 3 all season, and that depends on us drawin them in both cups.

Last season he was absolute cack. He got lazy and shit and never bothered running for anything. His scoring rate was actually pretty cack but it looks much better cos he got about 7 penalties. Had we not sold David Unsworth it would've looked a lot worse.

He very rarely scored away from home but he did a few times and a lot of his goals were very lucky (Bolton at home one flicked up off de Zeeuw and his Yakubu in hte side of the head and went in. At home against you Quadrue put it in but I think Yak got credited with it.)

His game was all about pace and power, he has a shit touch and isn't a good finisher but when he ran at defenders, they cacked it. The problem was, some dickhead agent; Barry Silkman (who apparently works for Boro) unsettled him and he stopped running for us. We all figured that once he went to Boro he'd start working hard again but maybe not. *shrug*

lol, i only mentioned your team as i didnt understand why souness buys the lad, says how good a forward he was, then plays him wide left. Thats not a dig at your team, just at your managers tatics. The only critisim i would give is that boumsong wasnt at his best and just b4 they got the 2nd, why the hell was loque tryin to shot from 35 yards from that free kick when a cross would have been the best option?

obviously if it had gone in then i wouldnt be saying that as its obvious he shot to try and impress on his debut. I think the lad was tired at the end when he dragged that shot wide after lifting it over the defenders head.

Boro, we were shit and out classed. Our best player was taken off at half time, downing should have gone, not morrison. Mendieta was a wasted sub, although maccarone looked alright and deserves another chance, Doriva would have been a better choice to bring on and try and get a grip in midfield. We have no creativity once Morrison is not on the pitch and Yakubu will be on soccer am this week in the taxi section of the show after that airshot he did! He di well to make the chance then goes and does that, you cant help but laugh.

Bottom 3 at end of season on current form is going to be:

18. Middlesbrough
19. Newcastle
20. Sunderland

And ive only put boro above newcastle due to fact newcastle cant score, and sunderland bottom due to the losing streak they are currently on.

I'm a bit gutted that we've given Chelsea a 12 point lead but it's not impossible to turn it around.
