except for fat ronnie, he's better than all their other strikers. i'm sure if he doesn't sign a new deal they'll be in like a fox for him. him and dinho are the two most ready-made "galacticos" out there right now.

but i wouldnt worry if he leaves, arsenals major problem these days is their team is getting a bit too soft. they should seriosuly sign a couple of big nasty motherfukcer midfielders and defenders to get back to where they were a couple of seasons ago.

AHAH just big guys to chop every one, the Arse Way

Baptista iz very much a forward to me, but oh well whatever.

Bahrain and Kuwait aren't pushoverz by any meanz, and playin in the middle east iz anythin to be desired fo.

China have Iraq to contend wit, by the way they played recently they're nowhere near the side that went on to the final of the last Asian Cup.

slightly off topic, ihas any one seen this movie green street hooligans? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385002/

it is awesome!

Anyway, we definately got a favourable draw in the asia qualf. however, I'd be interested to see the squad which will be picked. Maybe David Carney will get his chance to shine.

Carney needs to learn how to cross though..... at the moment he is fairly Cristiano Ronaldo-esque... he can do that hard bit by beating defenders, but then he puts in a rubbish cross. Unless he plays out of his skin until the rest of the year, he isn't good enough to play for Australia.

 

[Ilija]

Carney has the ability to be really good, but lacks consistency, that's his major problem.


Woo the Spurs 2 Man City 0 , the gap extends for the top 4.

Odds 26/1 for Huddersfield to beat Chelsea, I feel like just betting $2 or something

 

[nedzelic]

and also Javier Portillo? or did he do the smart thing and leave already.

nah he's at...club brugges, i think

 

[nedzelic]

Portillo is at Fiorentina.

not any more

Expect a Real forward to head the other way in the northern summer, just like every year it seems that strikers go through a revolving door with this club. Im guessing it could be Raul.

no chance, no way
i'll bet you $2m he won't go. he is god in madrid - they would have a mutiny on their hands if they sold him

 

[nedzelic]

Raul is getting on, and the other strikers are young guns, so thats how people may look at it..

what about ronaldo??

 

[Benny_]

Oh yeah that's right. My mistake

 

[braad]

what about ronaldo??

find a club who wants him for a fee that doesnt put them into debt and i reckon they would take ronaldo

it's simple, they just need a midfileder who can tackle. they don't have one. hence rumours about diop, dabo, dacourt etc

well i don't think he's cost much more than raul - my point being that raul won't be sold

 

[nedzelic]

[braad]

yep, like you said...it'd cause uproar

he IS RMs favourite son/captain :/

well, at least atm, they'd lose alot of cred for selling him

 

[braad]
