Football

I've just got off a bus arguing with year 2 kids about Dulwich hamlet Vs Chelsea, arsenal, and Leicester.

We all agreed arsenal are shit.

I went to Wimbledon on New Year's Day and had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. So much so that I might do it again.

Regis. Have fashioned a makeshift black armband for tonight's game of five a side.

RIP

Will wear one on my pyjamas tonight out of respect

Possibly the best Squires that I can recall

I think I have got something in my eye...

Is anybody going to end up particularly happy with the Sanchez deal, apart from his agents?

It's not his first choice of club; United are paying way over the odds with wages and the signing on fee; Henrikh M doesn't seem to want to go; Arsenal aren't getting a good deal.

I do think he'll do well. BUT £350k a week plus a £20m signing on fee? Christ alive.

Henrikh is on 200 - 250 k a week.
HOW?

If you're going to do a knee slide celebration, get it right. It looks wank when you don't.

turf wasn't watered enough..

he's worth that! Was in demand when he left Dortmund, and the Premier League is awash with more money so they can let others discover the talent, then pay top dollar to sign it, including wages.

Monchi saying it better "I know English clubs that are very professional, scouts everywhere, but the information they gather isn’t always applied. Why? Because they have money. That enables them to take fewer risks: ‘I’m not going to discover Keita at Lens; let Sevilla do that and then buy Keita from Sevilla.’”

Yes, Yes. I understand the finances. But he's a bit like Defoe, streaky.

Nah, he's playing in a team and for a manager that doesn't know how to utilise him.

He was mustard in his last season for Dortmund. Think also there's a psychological component to it as well. From what I've heard he requires an arm round the shoulder, rather than a kick up the backside. And currently Mourinho is all kick up the backside.

I want Sanchez at Chelsea, won't happen, but that's what I want...

And a striker would be nice...

you're getting carrol

Shoot me in the face.

This all over. Sources at the Bridge say he is due there today. It will bring a massive smile to my face

I might consider flouncing.

We'll still finish above Libpool...

They don’t hand out any trophies for that do they?

I imagine he’ll have the same impact as Pato last year.

Only if you're called Spurs.

On a positive note, expectations are so low that Carroll cannot be a disappointment.

I fucking love Andy Carroll.
