indeed - is he that good? (leaving aside the is anyone that good question)

[godsshoeshine]

i think he'd go well with how fergie likes to play but he's 26. not a whole lot of sell on value on the investment after a couple of years

[vansmack]

He's good, really good actually, but he's not £60m good.  I wouldn't mind him to replace Ronaldo at all, although I'd take £75m and Wesley Sneijder instead of £100m.

Sneijder, Carrick and Ribery?  Mmmmm.....

I shouldn't have to post this, but...

My favorite comment so far:

"Arsenal went down faster than Hatton!"

if the toon go down
and fsc had hd, and setanta does not
its going to be really hard for me to justify paying for setanta

Setanta is the only way to see the Coca-Cola Championship....
