Vassell spent large amounts of last season seriously injured.
He's a disaster area. Has he played a full season yet? He could be a decent enough player if he could go a couple of weeks without hurting himself. |

I know he was injured, thats fair enough. It doesn't mean he isn't terrible though. The only thing he has his pace, he's a worse finisher than Henri Camara.

I disagree, I think Vassell is a decent footballer, he's a good runner with the ball. Like Bellamy: not much of a scorer, but has enough to cause even good defenders some trouble.
Camara has a touch like the proverbial rapist. |

I dunno, he's built better than Bellamy but he doesn't use the power and pace to his advantage by just running at people, like Yak does (well, did before he got lazy and stopped running)
He's just fast. |

its quite possible, i've never really liked Samuel Eto'o and i don't know why. Racism seems logical i suppose.

Vassel is shite for villa decent for England, I wouldn't even want him on a free. Bellamy is superior in every way. |

I don't think there's a great deal of difference between them, aside from skin colour of course. They both spend inordinate amounts of time injured, and can't finish for shit.

Vassell is fucking shite. How the hell can anyone rate him?
City would be better off starting with Bradley Wright-Phillips than this doughnut. |

to be fair, teh fact he was in it doesn't mean anything since they had to include a number of Africans, Asians etc etc. Lucas Radabe and Raidi Jaidi were in the team too as were a load of chinks i have never heard of.
The teams started off with all teh world class players like Sheva, Gerrard, Ronaldinho, Becks etc, then the chinks and darkies got their turn for the last 10 minutes. |

I like Lucas Radabe, he got a standing ovation from your lot in the match we beat you 2-1 thanks to goals from Yakubu and Lua Lua with Ian Harte scoring a dodgy penalty making for a nervy last 10 minutes with Shaka making a wondersave from Nick Barmby with about 10 seconds left that effectively relegated you because there was no way you'd catch us. Anyway.
The point is, you didn't have to be a world class player to be picked. |

Fair enough I suppose, the guy was fucked by last season. At least he got a good send off.

David Pizarro was class last night, top signing for Inter. Martins didn't play though
![]() I'm also fearing Connolly might leave, he was supposed to have been fit for last night but wasn't even on the bench. Dion and de Vries up front won't cut it, no pace. |

I'm guessing he will be available for next to nothing so we should go for him, get some star power in our line up.

Vassell has incredible potential, but had had two leg breaks and three ankle breaks in 5 years. Quite possibly the unluckiest player in England.

Davids has gone to Spurs
![]() They need some experienced players to take them forward, they should be in Europe next season |

On a free, as well
![]() Then again it's mainly cause Inter want to clear the wage bill to make way for Figo. There's talk Van Der Meyde and/or Coco might wind up at Everton also, although now that Davids has moved I dunno how that'll affect those two. |

I refuse to believe that Davids has gone to Spurs until he holds up a Yiddo shirt with a name and number on it. He hasn't even negotiated personal terms yet.

Spurs have got loads of midfielders, that said, someone like Davids is probably what they need. Experienced and his all action game would allow Carrick to play it about.
I guess Inter don't need him anyway, and like i say, Pizarro looks like being a fine signing. |

Davids can play it about better than Carrick can. He's real class.
Depends on whether Davids is still up for it or not, or whether he's just after a payday in London. He was immense for Barcelona the season before last. Anything like that form, and he'll slap everyone's balls. |

I'd hope that Davids has signed for Spurs, but you've got to remember that he was confirmed to be signing for both them and Chelsea last year. He'll probably change his mind at the last minute..
