Scocco and Vergini are two cracking signings for Sunderland.

We really are a different beast during derbies, aren't we? :D What a performance, polar opposite to the one witnessed against Villa. Hopefully we can get a new DM and an LB atleast on loan by the end of this window, and this unit is looking good for the rest of the season. Flanagan mightily...

Transfer News: Newcastle and PSG agree deal for Yohan Cabaye | Football News | Sky Sports Remy Cabella isn't a like for like replacement for Cabaye, btw

Bopara, Bresnan & Tredwell should be squad players at best for next year's World Cup. Not worthy of a place in the XI. Especially Bopara...has he ever carried England over the line? Terribly weak mentality. I'd have still Cook as an opener while handing over the captaincy reigns to Morgan...

barmyarmy: Salah is a winger, not an attacking mid. More of a replacement for Kevin de Bruyne than Mata. I think we should totally go the Everton way and try getting Coentrao, N De Jong (Milan have just signed Essien) & Montoya all on loan and send those donkeys in Cissokho and Moses off...

Indeed. You only really need to look at Roma, Sporting Lisbon and Liverpool's seasons so far, as a result of being absent in Europe. That said, I think next season's EL winners will qualify for the following season's Champions League (not sure), so teams might take it a tad more seriously I...

Can really see Man Utd finishing top four now... Btw he's cup tied for the Champions League right?

Talks between Manchester United and Chelsea over Juan Mata 'going well' | Football News | Sky Sports Moyes will have to completely abandon his current system and play a 4-3-1-2 to fit Mata, Rooney & RvP in their best positions. Would be a huge confidence boosting signing regardless (much...

We won't be a one man team if we make the CL next season though. Top class players WILL want to come here in that case, wanting to play alongside Suarez. That's the whole point. If we don't make it though, yeah, fair enough, your point holds good in that it'll hurt us being a one man team in...

You're contradicting your own point here. :p As in the case of Spurs with Bale, we won't cope with the loss of Suarez easily either. So it'd be a huge mistake to sell him this summer. Btw Luis apparently has a ?100m release clause, so I can't see Liverpool selling him otherwise (regardless...

"If the money is spent well" being the operative word, Don. Big 'if' that, when you look at Rodgers' track record on transfers since becoming our manager. What is it? 4-5 quality players (off his 14 signings) we've attaracted since his arrival? Sahin (wasted him), Mignolet, Sakho, Sturridge and...

Gerrard in the deeper role clearly backfired against Stoke, so what does Brendan do? Play him there again against Villa in the first half! :lol Will always stick by my opinion that he's a very limited tactician, with Suarez, Sturridge & Henderson saving his blushes this season. Call it kneejerk...

Playing without their best four bowlers (including Swann, who's retired). Hardly unexpected. Won 4-0 in Dubai against Pakistan in 2011-12 when Jimmy, Broad, Swann and Finn all started at once. Coincidence? Don't think so.

Pure abomination this. Nasser Hussain, disgustingly enough, backed Saker and co regarding not playing Finn. ---------- The Ashes 2013-14 : Finn desperate to find an answer | Cricket Features | Australia v England | ESPN Cricinfo

Wanted Pippo Inzaghi personally. Interesting Milan instead went for a man with zero coaching experience, who apparently speaks 84 different languages.

Looking at that poll, I get the feeling Collingwood50, dancingmongoose & zombieian are respectively Andy Flower, Alastair Cook and Jimmy Anderson in disguise... :noway

McGeady at ?2m is a fine coup for Everton. Perfect backup for Mirallas. Need a backup AM for Barkley though, unless of course Osman/Mirallas can do a job there. Really wouldn't fix something that isn't broken though, which's Mirallas on the right.

Joe Root is hopeless against the new ball.

Dolphin looks an incredible web browser, thanks for that. Regarding the flash player though, I downloaded it but couldn't install it for some reason, before one of my mates on twitter suggested Adobe flash player installation for Android mobile phones wasn't possible anymore.

Hales' technique is god awful, War. I wouldn't have him anywhere near the ODI side. Only really a good puller of the cricket ball. Anyone else found Jordan impressive yesterday? As Mike Hussey said, thought he was very unlucky to not get a 3/4 fer yesterday. Does make the new ball talk...
