thanks for the link louis. i think this should be in the FIFA thread though

another great post pad, on a roll today. if only the everton transfer sagas were that short :shaking fist:

i'll be interested to see where he lines up once the season starts. will he be a one position man, or will he be used as a utility midfield player slotting in where needed on the left or in the middle?

wow, i honestly feel bad for that club and fans. the owner publicly wants to sell and can't get it sold. i wonder if its him holding out for a better deal on his end, or if there just aren't many suitors to buy football clubs these days. 150m for villa, i wonder what our club valuation would be?

ive explained this before mike. before the big TV revenue, there wasn't much to account for so the "no money for players, punching above our weight, etc etc" was debated, but was hard to prove since really we didn't have much money and were in a lot of debt. The massive influx of TV money changes things. If the same problems keep coming up yet we get free 80m, surely something is wrong. but my friend, we disagree and that is fine. no worry.

so we play arsenal in the final. let's hope we get a preseason trophy.

Lap of luxury, what line of work you in? You hiring Americans any time soon?

No problem with that. But someone on here posted we were never in for him and said rm said we had nothing to do with him. Obviously not true and egg is now on the face. Don't understand why he couldn't just be honest and say we were in he wants to live in London, we'll get someone else.

right that's what i mean ^. sadly it might come true, i thought you were just having a rough day, but turns out this continental 10 might just be a pipedream. i was just joking about the right/wierd thing man, chill. wasn't having a dig at you, actually the opposite.

ha and people saying everton were never in, roberto saying we've nothing to do with him. same old story same response, we can't pony up, too skint, and the manager acts like we never wanted them. FFS

just go to the oS and look up the financials. i did the other day. they're almost last page. also our trade partners owe us something like 25m, they need to get 3rd party collections agency or something, that's a significant outstanding debt. mike independently audited doesn't mean anything. you can pick the auditor and you pay them, you don't like the results find a new one until you get what you want. i'm not arguing with you on this, just stating a fact taken from the financials, just pointing that out to matt. we disagree on this point and that's fine.

damn. well go on then james off you go now, well sell you on the stretcher mccarthy seems to be injury prone, i'll be interested to see how this plays out.

Thank you.

Haha wondo is there to be the ra ra guy in the locker room. Old vet who can shows the young guys about hard work and all that. Morris is injured. I like zelalem and hyndman as well a lot, but they weren't tearing the u21 WC a new one, so I think they would get eaten alive by the brute physicality of concacaf. They need to bulk up. I really like bedoya and Yedlin on the wings. Dempsey and Bradley are solid. It's just the striker and backline we need to iron out, but we have some solid players.

Yes it's there. Also we made record revenue from TV, yet took out another 10m in loans. Explain that one. It's like we've all said, corrupt money laundering fools keeping us down. Bastards.

Just woke up, who took the Pens? Glad we won. Thanks for the updates on here, was a nice read with my coffee and toast.

Altidore morales and garza sent home. Gordon, corona and Beasley join the squad. I'm hoping for this next match Guzan Fabian Alvarado ream Beasley Yedlin Bradley beckerman bedoya Dempsey Zardes After that match I expect brooks to be back after the 2 yellow card suspension. But Beas and Fabian will help to steady that backline and can both attack. Yedlin and bedoya use their pace on the flanks with Bradley and Dempsey creating. Zardes wasn't bad as the up top striker, better players around him and I think he could start to come alive. So glad altidore is gone, he was woeful.

http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/591140/Manchester-City-Everton-James-McCarthy-Fabian-Delph-rejection-Aston-Villa City for McCarthy to fulfill homegrown quotas. Wouldn't be mad at this if they paid sterling money.

FFS pad was right. Never said that before, it sounds weird. Well shit I hope this is misdirection.

sadly no CB will play for a free season ticket and the 2 meat pies Bill K and Elstone are offering players.

agreed. it will be sergi roberto on loan, the CB will be browning and galloway, and the RB cover will be hibbert. Striker? McAleny.

doesn't look like a ferrarri to me

thought he was off to schalke. shit i'd take him here.

spot on.

villa have 5 LB none of which are good or have taken the spot and ran with it. he's been linked with them as an upgrade over what they have. http://www.espnfc.us/club/aston-villa/362/blog/post/2515363/can-tim-sherwood-solve-aston-villas-left-back-problem
