Meet you in the middle.  Top twelve you win and anything below I win.  No push.  £250 is fine.

Is this a bet mate?

Do you know much about European football? Any opinions on Ben Arfa, Cabaye, Marveux? I only seen a handful of games, maybe you can shed more light.

Ben Arfa is quality, but it just depends how he recovers from the broken leg, which he may never will. Cabaye looks good, solid enough to rock a top ten prem team. Not seen enough of Marveux to no ?

Shame for Barton as well, he should have gone to a better club.

great 3 points yesterday, unfortunate to concede sloppy goal in last 2 minutes otherwise we wouldnt have conceded this year and in 3 tough games with ryan taylor as a left back that would be a big improvement on previous seasons.

If rumours are to be believed, this would be our team in 1 weeks time./

funnily enough i was at the match yesterday.

apart from needing 2 wingbacks newcastle looked pretty good. danny simpson was shocking, him and obertang just looked so uneasy together.

kabaye looked really good. Tiote had a poor first half, looked very slow on the ball, and every time he got it he passed it back to collocini. he took a knock to the face just before half time, was down for about 3 minutes, and after that he was awesome. seemed to knock something into him.

collocini and taylor looked really solid in the centre of defence. looked a little shaky last 20 minutes when fulham start putting crosses in, murphy and dempsey were winning headers too easy.

tim krul looks awesome in goal, saved 2 hears which were world class saves

[maldini32]

Davide Santon is an absolute gem and best buy of the summer if your gonna get him for 5 mil.

[pleno1]

wowwww, 5m for santon. boooooooooom!!!

Pieters stays at PSV

[pleno1]

yeah, if we got pieters/santon as our full backs our team would be worrlllllld.

Very surprised you didn't get Pieters TBH. Would have thought that a £6-8Mill would have been enough. He's quite keen to go, though not complaining if he has to stay for another year as he's not that kind of guy, and we need the money.

the robbie elliot story is a strange one. you offer us 100k, we tell you to piss off and then report you for tapping up, now we're reporting that we're in talks, sky are reporting he's in newcastle having a medical and all the time I'm sat here wondering why a prem league club is going to all this trouble for a league 1 keeper
