Blurred, are you comfortable with your options at left back and on either edge of midfield? Will Pennant win a league title for instance? What about the other side, playing Babel left of a midfield 4 is something new to him I believe as he's used to the Allardyce (TM) 4-3-3 isn't he? ..and your bac...

Some of the backups are on normal or even below average salaries, ie $15-30k. Been some chat about how when the team flies they all fly economy and Beckham flies first class - all the old players in the NASL flew economy whilst decent names in the MLS, eg Djorkaeff flew economy as well. I imagine B...

If any of you fancy a top quality Chinese (no really, I mean it) then you may wish to try the Tung Fong in Worsley (a favourite of Svens when he used to stay at The Marriot). More expensive than most but you soon come to realise why. Food at the Tung Fong is good (I don't live too far from it). Onl...

This isn't supposed to be a dig at Okocha, but I suspect the money he would get in the US isn't enough for him. Djorkaeff was "only" on $150,000 a year over there: Beckham is certainly an exceptional case. Even Hull would be able to muster a few grand a week for him, I expect. I read somewhere they...

My 'Local' in Mijas does the best tapas on the planet, it's just immense - Quails eggs with cinnamon and spinach croquets were my personal favourites that I haven't seen in any Tapas place in the UK

Thanks, jonny. As I said I can't get cable here even if I wanted it - which I don't. I could get satellite but I'm not paying that sort of money just to watch the odd bit of football. I watch little television as it is. For example, my wife has just returned from a nine day sojourn in Sandgroper te...

each one of the top 4 managers make similar comments. Mourinho was at it last season. It's all mind games, it all evens itself out. don't see the huge deal It's just rare for Rafa to be doing it - not sure I'm a fan, cos the whinging'll get you nowhere really. You expect it from the likes of Mourin...

They'll have the bit between their teeth and seem to just buy the world out of players. But last season they won it by a country mile and could get complacent, it'll be a two-horse race with the two Milanese clubs - I don't think Juve will get near them, Champs league spot probably, but I don't thin...

In that case you get an extra day to recuperate or is that just the UEFA cup? not sure! I agree that is a ridiculous amount of games to be played at lunchtime though, but your opposition has that same problem therefore it should even itself out meaning you won't lose touch with the other teams you ...
