Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

xp a rangers player though alright, feels like he's been with us for years tbh

you see him without the ball and u recall the whole being a poser and coward thing

something bad happened him in the whole leaving liverpool thing - and in the months before, he did look v sullen all the time as compared to when he started and was able to handle being kicked with a plum.

jenas torres whats the difference

lol i thought that was about owen

Stanislas, who ran around The Valley doing fuck all for 60 minutes before being hauled off the other week :D

where's WBS?

Well, you can see Poch is kind of losing his enthusiasm for the whole Being At A Table With A Guy thing. Plus side - Rickie says he wants to play out his career with us, which is cool.

Also in Saints - Vegard Forren, a footballer who exists, played 90 minutes for Norway tonight as they lost to Albania. Given that Vegard is currently being kept off our bench by the combined might of Yoshida, Hooiveld and Fonte, Norway must be dreadful these days.

Is yoshida as fuckin awful as he's looked every time i've seen saints concede?

forren looks ready to me

was he in the magdalen sisters?

wait how did this slide by

"Norwich have agreed to sign Sporting Lisbon striker Ricky van Wolfswinkel for an undisclosed fee on a four-year contract from July 1.

Chris Hughton told the club's official website: "Ricky's profile is a perfect fit for us - he's young, ambitious and a proven goalscorer.

"He has an excellent goalscoring pedigree and he's a young man very keen to continue his personal progression and to play in England. He's already an exciting talent but he still has more development as a player ahead of him.

"I'm delighted we've been able to agree a deal with Sporting Lisbon and with Ricky and we look forward to welcoming him to the squad in July, once all of the paperwork gets sorted out.""

Looks like he could be a bit of alright for them. Also, what a fantastic name

Everywhere currently reporting that Abramovich hasn't been arrested in New York

Definition of a slow news days. I haven't been arrested today either.

I've been to hospital

That's not news, "Roman Abaramovich hasn't been to hospital today" is news

I dunno though, I've never had to deny being arrested

"We will scrap. It's about the here and now. Do we dare to dream we can win the games we need to stay up? We have to."

pleased for the bloke but seeing him deploy nigespeak in the service of another club just confirms that i'm not over him yet. reading play saints a week on saturday.

Robin van Bramble :-)

none of that was ever proved

Ouch! Vidic & De Gea smash faces

What odds can you get on United winning the league now?

I'm sure they'll have been slashed massively now that tricky Sunderland game is out the way

I fancy United to close it out from here, call it a hunch or just a crazy feeling. I was right about Celtic in the SPL.

I quite fancy the US against North Korea

what a finish by Vertonghen!

This is why I love Vertonghen. Ace.

and a terrible finish by Adebayor wastes a glorious Dembele pass.

I'm coming round to your way of thinking on this one LG. Must be worth a flutter?

Drop Adebayor, stick Vertonghen upfront IMO.

SkyBet offering a generous 1/750 btw, which is slightly better than you'd get by putting it in the bank

1-0 saints, jrod with a beaut

Swansea are certainly playing in a manner commensurate with having won the Carling Cup

rickie lambert, i love you

ugh, tevez just a touch quicker than jonas on that goal
newcastle playing defensive whole first half right now

We look a lot better with Lennon in the team, just more balanced all round

true. fullbacks are spurs greatest weakness i think. Naughton was beaten or out of position a dozen times the first half.

oh also having a striker as low on confidence as Adebayor is a great weakness.

Sup with spurs pls

up 2 nil. dominated first 30 minutes, Swansea then came into it and hit the bar with a point blank header.

Xp agreed about the fullbacks, im not convinced theyre adding enough at either end on either side. Adebayor is a writeoff. And a cunt.

both goals were great. Vertonghen and Bale with a goal and an assist each.

We have a much better LB on the bench.

That Rickie Lambert free kick was mumm-ra.

so, who finishes 18th??

Sunderland.

That's who I hope takes the downward plunge.

Sunderland with no goalscorer for the rest of the season might just edge it

also Rafa is still lol

Would Ricky van Wolfswinkel have a clause that his signing to Norwich is cancelled when Norwich go down?
