need a big cf presence to take advantage of suarez's movement imo, kevin davies type player

Studge will find himself shunted out wide again probably, moving Suarez from centre forward is lunacy given how he's been playing. But the likelihood of Liverpool cashing in on Suarez in the summer is pretty high and Sturridge will be useful to have in the squad until then. Especially if Suarez gets injured/contrives to pick up a massive suspension.

Matt DC, Wednesday, 19 December 2012 12:12 (thirteen years ago)

xp only if he's playing two up top, which he won't, so suarez goes inside wing forward, which would be a shame

studge most looked the part at bolton next to davies. said this before but he doesnt look like a modern striker to me, more like a 1994 kind of guy

if 12m's lying around then is llorente really so out of the question?

r|t|c, Wednesday, 19 December 2012 12:15 (thirteen years ago)

not sure what happened to the demba ba talk, personally i'd like us to sign someone who is currently scoring goals.

rory forgethisname from the times seems to reckon ince and studge are both done deals, anyway.

r|t|c, Wednesday, 19 December 2012 12:34 (thirteen years ago)

more likely to sign someone actually called kolososov imo

first u get the flower, then u get the honey, then u get the stamen (darraghmac), Wednesday, 19 December 2012 12:54 (thirteen years ago)

still not sure why we let ince go in the first place.

Chris, Wednesday, 19 December 2012 12:55 (thirteen years ago)

tbf he wasn't gonna renew his contract iirc

first u get the flower, then u get the honey, then u get the stamen (darraghmac), Wednesday, 19 December 2012 13:01 (thirteen years ago)

ah well, while we're at it can we re-sign maxi and dirk please.

this Warnock gripe about Rafa is totally ludicrous. like, did he really expect another manager to field a full team a few days before a Champions League final? and does he actually think the whole season hinged on the last two games, or something?

Heterocyclic ring ring (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 19 December 2012 13:54 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah, and he's normally such a reasonable level-headed guy, Warnock

Tom D is secretly an important person (Tom D.), Wednesday, 19 December 2012 13:55 (thirteen years ago)

even for him this seems too much.

Pretty sure you're obliged to pick at least 11 players, no matter when the game is

He started making his mark on his new team during their pre-season tour of America. After the other new arrivals sang initiation songs into their dining spoons, he picked up a steak knife and belted out We Are The Champions.

'I have many gay friends who I deeply respects. The hand gesture I made is directed at the referee caving in to the pressure of the home fans.

'That hand gesture was to tell him he was scared. Look at my hairstyle, what I wear, I'm not a prejudice person, my hand gesture was in no way, shape or form a homophobic one

By jingo. I should disapprove of City pulling that off, but these are dark times.

losing 1-0 at home to a workmanlike sunderland in the pouring rain, it doesn't get any realer than that

Few scenes after the game there as fans in the away end dressed as penguins appeared to be throwing punches at stewards.

ftr i skimmed through this afternoon's bbc fitba liveblog and read several really stupid things but i'm not going to c&p any of them

at this special time of year, it's important not to lose sight of the true meaning of football even in the shallow, meta-obsessed world we inhabit

it's something to do with Stewart Downing isn't it
