He is quality to be fair. And that was in Zeman's system, so wait until he gets a manager capable of developing the defensive side of his game.

The other two are excellent too though.

That's what happens when you sell your best players, replace them with average players, and promote the U19's manager to first team manager. Simple really.

Lazio still the only unbeaten side left in the Champions League or Europa League. I though BMG were bad in the last game, but Stuttgart are really dreadful. No wonder their down in 12th, we should have knocked in 3 or 4 and that was with half our first 11 missing.


How convenient somebody called Onazi scored for you . Didn't realise Stuttgart are 12th. Have you got two games behind closed doors or just one?

Chelsea got beat, they're pretty dire. Still got a very good chance of progressing but that would only temporarily paper over the cracks.

The fucking cunt of a ref follows a bunch of Turkish teams Real Madrid, Barcelona and Ronaldo on Twitter.

Fucking cunt, couldn't wait to help out his idols I bet.


Got a link to his profile? Is it a genuine one?

As much as I don't like United, that was an unbelievably poor decision.

Hate Ferdinand though.

A comfortable 2-0 win for City I'll predict. That's what I would have gone for in the Prediction League had Nic not disappeared.

Another goal and another two more assists last night for Totti, level with Nordahl now in second place on 225 goals in Serie A. 49 to go to get level with Piola - will most likely be beyond him, unfortunately. What a man.

Sounds like Juve had a peaceful pre-match preparation before the game on Friday:

This was a weekend, in other words, which promised footballing fireworks. It began with a more literal kind of explosive being deployed outside Juventus's team hotel. More than a hundred Napoli Ultras took up residence in Corso Vittorio Emanuele on Thursday evening, setting off firecrackers, paper bombs and klaxons outside the Grand Hotel Parker's in the hope of disrupting their opponents' rest. The disturbances continued through the night and into the early hours of Friday morning.

Juventus stayed holed up until Friday afternoon – conducting their pre-game training session in the hotel gym. When the team's bus finally emerged from the parking lot a few hours before kick-off, it became an instant target. Despite the presence of a police escort, a group of would-be assailants tracked it from hotel to stadium on motorbikes and mopeds, launching missiles and insults as they went. At one point a lit flare ricocheted off a window and landed on the roof of a nearby taxi.

Worse was to come as the bus approached the Stadio San Paolo, where another gang awaited with rocks in hand. The window next to Kwadwo Asamoah was smashed, though the player was not hurt. Juventus's general manager, Beppe Marotta, later confirmed that the incident was unrelated to Asamoah's exclusion from the starting XI.

I've heard Rekik was terrible yesterday, what did you think of him?


He's not been great nope, but he's shown the odd flash to suggest he has something about him (which he must do, if he's highly rated by your staff).

Is his best position centre back or left back? He's been playing left back for us, but he's had either Markus Olsson (who's terrible) or Pedersen (can't run anymore) in front of him, which can't be ideal.

Hopefully he'll get better. He should do. Hardy anybody has played well the last four games, to be honest.

Not too sure about that, they were doing pretty dire. That said, it wasn't worth getting rid of him with Saunders, who appears out of his depth, being the replacement...

Will watch the game tonight, should be decent. A draw would by my prediction, can't see Napoli winning.

Just found out it's not on ESPN until 22.15, eugh.

They're at home this weekend I think, should be interesting. I don't think the fans, some of which would have been going for decades, will take too kindly to a stop-gap manager telling them how to support their team. Worth keeping an eye on that game!

We've been desperately poor since the Arsenal game. 0 goals scored, feels like we've had 0 shots too.

I've splashed out on some Millwall tickets for the FA Cup quarter final, we better show more effort and intent in that game. Season over if we lose that 'cos there's 0% chance of the play-offs.

Haha they're such a joke. Sneijder and Coutinho out, him and Rocchi in.

Their only half-decent signing in Janurary appears to be that Kovacic (sp?), he's meant to be pretty good.

Milan derby starts in 5. Looking forward to it.

Good win for the Giallorossi earlier, 3-2 at Atalanta, which can be a tough place to go - without DDR and Il Capitano as well.

0-0 with Leeds. Appleton has sorted us out in defence but that's meant we're lacking going forward - despite having Kaz, DJ, Rhodes, etc. Our midfield's poor so that doesn't help I guess.

Leeds had a couple of chances but their finishing was pretty poor, if the match was still going on now it'd probably still be 0-0.

Get ready for the usual bullshit interview telling us that the players showed great mental strength, togetherness etc to get the result after a difficult week so that once again those massive cracks can be papered over.


I don't know what Wenger said in his interview but even if he did say something like that, I don't think there's anybody out there who would fall for it - surely?

QPR's next five games are crucial - they play two or three around them but all 5 are in the bottom half I think. If they mess those games up, they've had it.

Jim Beglin doesn't half talk some serious sh*t. Good strike by Dembele, although I think Gonalons (I think) could have done better in preventing him from getting a shot away.

Good result for Newcastle too.

Did Mikel ever give a reason for his disappearance? He was a good member. Don't think I've seen him on the new site though.

I can try and get Roque back, if that would kickstart the site
