haha he vows to stay once he realizes no one is coming to save him, stayed pretty quite while speculation was rife

wow thats as bad a broken leg as i think I have ever seen on the field. Hope the lad recovers.

rodders for me, very impressive, just wish he had hit the target with that sitter If fellaini had started and played like that all game then he would have won it hands down.

I agree, while he seems great going forward, our left side has been a bit exposed lately. Might be a carryover effect from losing Lescott as he provided a lot of cover for baines. don't see why we attack almost exclusively down the left either, when Hibbert had a few chances to send the ball in he got it spot on!

If its true modric has broke his leg against birmingham then I think we can forget this one.

surely to get a work permit their has got to be some involvement from the player, signing the bottom of a form at least. If its true that this has all gone ahead without Valencia knowing, then moyes is the worlds biggest hypocrite. wtf is going on???

The Croatian fella, Kalinić who signed for blackburn got a work permit and he has only played 2 national team games. http://www.rovers.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,...1749660,00.html I remember Burnley signing a young ecuadorian who needed a work permit too. Would Peterlin have needed one?

no don't ban him, i wanna see the reactions after do the double over them this season.

to a degree mate and it would certainly be exciting. But I am not sure I would be totally happy with the heart and soul being ripped out of my club. I have seen the team really steady improve of the last few years and I wouldn't want to replace all those guys with mercenaries. City encompass everything that is wrong with modern football. They are not building success they are purely and simply buying it, even moreso than Chelsea did. Under Thaksin in the last two years you made a lot of big money, quality signings that really improved your team like Elano, Caicedo, Bojinov, Jo and Petrov. All those blokes have now been shown the door, how is that building success?? Yes Everton probably need investment to consistently break the top 4, but we have built ourselves into a position where really would not have to be that much. We are probably only a few good players away from being consistently up there, unlike city who are almost unrecognizable from a few short years ago.

they involved nudity, a webcam and a lil self pleasure..

8 million pound asset?? This journos a donkey. The very essence of market value in any industry, is the price people are willingly to pay for a product.. which in Lescott's case is quite clearly more than 8 mill. In a football world where glen johnsons are going for 18 and john terrys for 40, there is no way J-Lo is worth 8!

are sure he is 22? I remember reading he was only 20 when we bought him earlier this year.. I definitely agree about giving him a crack tho.

The only one I would even consider selling is big Vic and that's because we have good depth and we play only one up front. I don't know why so many people want to get rid of osman, he would be a fantastic squad player, its just unfortunate he's currently in our best 11. Scored plenty of critical goals for us.

I hope that statement is genuine and he is not just another M'bia, wanting to sign for the most glamorous club available to him.

Like the McFadden transfer..

The thing that pisses me off about the Lescott scenario is that if we were willingly to sell him for around 20m, why did we not convey that to city when they came in with their first offer. Instead of messing around until the season has nearly started, meaning that any new players will have no pre-season. I hope he stays.

I'd try and get Arda Turan here, he is absolute class down the right hang side from what I have seen and heard. Failing that I would try and prise SWP away from city.

papers were calling him the Swedish delap, is his throw that good?

does he play on the right at all?

If he is looking for first team football, we aren't the right club.

If Jags and Yobo signed new deals and we are looking at a CB, could that mean we are considering offloading lescott to Citeh?? I certainly hope not.

I think europe would have the greatest depth, but I think you could definatlet make an argument for south america having a stronger starting 11. Kaka, robinho and messi up front would be hard to beat.

Which continent do you think could produce the strongest team??

as good as he looks, surely an attacking midfielder would be quite low on our shopping list!

So you are saying in all the time Stevie P has been he has never played better than 8/10?????
