Wait - what? How did that happen? Do City have even more?

City have 69 with a game in hand

TC: "I want to take on the reins, I want to be responsible for team selection, I want to be responsible for what goes on at the football club and, for the next 13 games, I'll take that."

Wolves have 9 games left this season.

fantasy cup run

save of the season from ruddy

Berbatov's off then. Who wants him?

someone who plays football

in a bit of a mood today?

Despite Berbatov's advancing years, Danchev underlined his client's desire to remain in a competitive league.

He added: "Dimitar will most probably leave England but he doesn't want to move to the U.S., Japan, United Arab Emirates or championships like these."

= SWANSEA

im afraid dimi is an ilx sacred cow & ferguson, rightly or wrongly, has to be the venal cur who underfed him

I think his salary might upset Swansea's delicate came from lower leagues all in this together balance.

oh yes, i'm well aware of Berbatov's exalted status on here. It even transcends his actual contributions on the pitch

theyre in the big leagues now which means they pretty much have to overpay for indulgent 31 yr old flair players until their salary bill reaches 130% of turnover and theyre in administration before 2014

his actual contributions on the pitch

sometimes a sacred cow is actually a bovine miracle

yes, it's sadly inevitable that Rodgers and Lambert will be asked if they can do the same next season on the same budget and they'll both say no (rightly) and need three or four players including a "proven goalscorer" - such is the way of second seasons in the top flight :(

dimi is kinda singular and just wasnt cut out for playing alongside drones like park giggs valencia etc

he never rly worked with twp either, but his overall scoring record isnt bad considering how deep he played and how incredibly slow he is these days

the criticism that he filled up against the minnows is unfair given that he wasnt usually played vs the big teams (understandably) and hernandez and twp are doing the same vs the heaps of shite at the lower end of the table

he's deceptively slow, you think he's going to be deceptively quick but he isn't - I think that helps him. Somehow.

I actually like Berbatov. I don't always agree with the ILF aesthetes' unquestioning worship of certain players though

by which i mean, i suppose, that it should be enough that ferguson wastes the best years of one of the premium talents of european football through a natural/common septegenarian mistrust of the artistry of a genius in the ranks at the height of his masculinity and power without NN and other disciples of the gorbals gangster rewriting the history of the previous few years in an attempt to justify it.

there were times where he just looked lazy tbh i mean we gotta be at least slightly h here

slight h be demmed sir

Tbf one of Swansea's less-heralded achievements this season is un-Jonah-ing Wayne Routledge, so they've a bit of form in redeeming players who look to have shot their bolt in the top flight.

(cue them signing Stephen Hunt and Marlon King)

redeeming ffs

rescuing, maybe

respecting

replacing to his rightful throne as the classiest damned bastard in football

the shawxshank redemption

the shawcross redemption, ramsey autobiog

yes

how is marlon king doing these days btw

another great bruce signing

wor lad's done great in the ninth, three jabs a right cross and she's down lak

think i already mentioned we were fucked. surprised at utd taking their foot off the gas, there was another 5 goals or more waiting to be had yesterday. about 12 o'clock yesterday i suggested to our elliot that the best option wd be to nuke molineux and rebuild from there. good prospect for league 1 next year imo

does yr elliot also support the family team?

tragically yes

Yeah, more than anyone else in recent years, even Portsmouth ffs, Wolves' plight has the air of you-ain't-coming-back about it.

ironically we'll be a going concern in the bottom flight too.

EVEN BOBBY CHARLTON AND GEORGE BEST WOULD HAVE SCORED FOR MAN UTD TODAY AGAINST OUR POOR TEAM AND ONE IS 75 AND THE OTHER HAS BEEN DEAD FOR 7 YEARS.

WOLVES MANAGEMENT ARE CLUELESS

xpost But Wolves have been careful with wages, haven't they? One of the rare clubs that is in the black every year. On that basis, they'll be back.

we have been careful with wages, to the point where we don't seem able to afford premier league quality players

That's the size of it, isn't it? If you're run within your means and competing, you're overachieving.

All this said, I still thought you'd stay up 'til the WBA game. Even keeping Mick you'd've'd a chance. Bolton are now the shouldn't-go-down club though who knows how their season will pan out now. NB assumption that Blackburn's 2-point cushion (and tbf better players) makes them pretty much safe already.

i thought bolton wd go down before Muamba took ill, think what happened on saturday makes it more likely but you never know how players will react. still: us 20th, wigan 19th, bolton 18th

qpr have got to find a win or two somewhere

just realised i'm worried in case we do hold onto players when we go down
