Football

So LFC continue to pay YJC £50k a week for 18 months to play at WHU. Football is well and truly fucked.

it's a 3mil pay off... we dont want him and no fucker is going to buy him. so paying off half his remaining contract seems like good damage limitation

The Ba 'deal' isn't quite just the 7mil, seems theres a good 5 mil extras in fees and Ba wants a piece of that too

So the same price as Sturridge then?

Was reading Sturridges goals per games stats on the BBC yesterday and they are actually very good.
What is the problem with him? Why did he never get a chance at Chelsea, is he really that shite?

Attitude problem...

oh FFS - don't get me wrong I hope he does well and both Man City and Chelsea get proven wrong but somehow there have been 6 managers who've had a look at him and didn't think he was worthy of a chance in the starting line up.

Goals per minute or game ratio are useless if the player in question doesn't play 30+ games per season. See the Anichebe stat somewhere above.

Sturridge, based on his current level, is just another Nicklas Bendtner. I'm glad we've found some mugs to pay £12m for him as he's had plenty of chances but didn't convince.

In return we get a 26 year old proven goal scorer with crocked knees that hasn't missed a game in 18 months (apparently).

Jaw, you forgot:

Jaw logs on and talks about obscure European players

Bill logs on and talks wistfully about how it was in the old days when footballers were paid in shillings and everyone drank Bovril.

"Hello? Hello? Is that the pot? Yes? It's the kettle here..."

Those could be on the subs bench Clive, I've put dicki in as a goalie as he's the odd one out....

andyp would be supersub, doesn't play a lot but always hits the target when he does.

.

Is he a dyed in the wool Chelsea fan then?

Not always.

Nice

Lol we haven't a hope in hell. The only top 4 side we beat with ease regularly are those West London rent boys.
I don't believe we have beaten Arsenal in 5 years and we have never won at the Emirates

The good old days

Apparently Moyes is sniffing round Chris fuckin Eagles!

Anyone got any bleach?

The Vidal Sasson Squad?

Fuck me, that was one hell of a team!
