On the Eve of the new Season...

This kind of bums me out.  It was a lot easier to be a fan of Robbie Keane at Tottenham than it will be at 'Pool.  I don't think I can do it now.  I also don't think his roving game style fits in well with the 'Pools passing gaming.  But he'll still score some goals.
 
 Liverpool close in on £18m deal for Keane

Never rated him much myself. Too selfish imho. Rafa will live to regret this if it goes through, especially if the rumoured fee is accurate.
 
 I suppose he'll sell a shitload of jersey's in Ireland though.

i guess it was actually £20.3m   :eek:  
 
 a fine player and all, but the man's 28. and how does rafa have money for him, but not barry. doesnt add up
 
 also, fingers crossed: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=558164&sec=europe&cc=5901

If you score goals at the pace of the Toon, you celebrate every goal like it might be your last....

i dunno, mike's scored alot over his career. a better zong would be 'owen celebrates a entire month healthy!'

[godsshoeshine]

(of course he's currently injured)

Sorry, unlike you, I didn't recognize him at that angle.

 Rooney and Ronaldo both out, not good. Tevez seems lost on his own up front.
