I would get one if I didn't live across the pond

Good enough game yesterday - John O'Shea played shit. Park had a good game but was unfortunate not to get out to the wings like he did against Everton.

Ruud is back!

Gorillaz and Oasis, but now I fucking love them, especially their new songs - DARE and The Importance of Being Idle

A Classic

Deportivo La Coruna have confirmed to skysports.com that Newcastle are in negotiations for striker Albert Luque.

The Magpies have been scouring the continent for a new striker and, after a series of knock-backs, have set their sights on the Spain international.

Chairman Freddy Shepherd flew into Spain on Thursday to try and broker a deal with Depor counterpart Augusto Cesar Lendoiro and the Spanish supremo has now disclosed that he is locked in talks with Shepherd.

However, he revealed that a deal is still some way off, especially as other clubs are continuing to monitor the striker's situation.

"Yes, it is true (Newcastle's interest)," Lendoiro told skysports.com.

"We are negotiating but have not reached an agreement as yet.

"Other European teams are also interested in the player."

Newcastle are understood to have already agreed terms with the player himself but have yet to settle on a fee with Depor.

The Galicians are holding out for around €15 million (£10 million) while The Magpies' opening gambit is thought to be in the region £7.5 million.

Luque, who is under contract until 2010, has managed 26 goals in 101 league games for Depor and has frequently been linked with a move from the Riazor in recent times.

Indeed, this summer Barcelona, Real Madrid and Sevilla have all expressed an interest in the pacey front man and Newcastle will face further competition if they are to land the player.

However, Souness himself seems pessimistic about the club's chances of landing Luque because of Depor's demands.

He did not suggest the transfer was completely dead, but conceded that a deal was proving difficult to broker.

"We have had a week where we have tried to sign a couple of quality players and it has not happened," Souness said.

"But we have still a bit of time left in the transfer window.

"The two players we have gone after this week are top players and that is the only kind of player I am interested in bringing to this club.

"We are in the market for players. Whether they remain targets or not I think we should keep to ourselves."

Well not by going on tonight's performance you ain't. You need a decent keeper, a decent captain and a decent manager who can keep his hands off his secretary

Still think you can win the World Cup lads?

Come on Ireland!!!

Utd have enough strikers at the moment, I don't think we really need Owen, I mean we have Rooney, Ruud, Solskjaer, Smith, Saha  , Ronaldo, Giggs and Park. They can all play up front.

Thats a ridiculous statement. Realistically, the only decent strikers you have is Van Nistelrooy, Rooney and... Saha. Smith is being converted to a midfielder by the looks of it and Ronaldo, Giggs and Park are all wingers who will ideally play behind the strikers. I'm not even going to talk about Solskjaer.

Skysports.com understand that Newcastle United are planning a last-ditch bid to grab Fredi Kanoute from under the noses of Sevilla.

The Spanish club claim they have agreed a deal with Spurs for the Mali international, with the move subject to a medical being completed.

However, Newcastle are now hoping to scupper Sevilla's bid to sign Kanoute by offering him the option of St James' Park instead.

It is believed that Kanoute has flown out to Spain to look around Seville, but Newcastle are hoping to persuade him to snub their overtures to move to Tyneside.

The Magpies are desperate to bolster their attacking options, having missed out on several top targets including Nicolas Anelka and Luis Boa Morte.

Kanoute is understood to be keen to remain in England and the late, dramatic option of a switch to The Magpies would surely prove tempting.

He revealed last week that he felt that Tottenham were trying to force him out of the club in a bid to raise funds for their own transfer plans.

Spurs are keen to offload Kanoute but it is believed they would prefer to sell him to a foreign club rather than to a Premiership rival.

West Ham, Everton and Manchester City have also been linked with a move for Kanoute, but the 27-year-old is thought to favour a move to Newcastle.

Sevilla are confident they have got their man but there could be late developments

Good luck West Ham with Bellion (Y)

I've hear rumours that Michael Owen could be on his way to Lyon now that they have got the money from the Essien transfer, also Gerrard Houlier manages them as well.

Duff would be at Liverpool or Man Utd

Wayne Bridge would be at Arsenal or Newcastle I would imagine

Robben would be at Man Utd

SWP would be at Arsenal

Do any of you lot out there go to away games? Where's the furthest you've ever gone? Have you had any trouble with rival fans before?

Tell us about your away day stories here.

Looking at Park Ji Sung's performance on Saturday I think it is going to be very hard for Ryan Giggs to get back in that team.

My team that I would choose

Van Der Sar

Neville Ferdinand Silvestre Heinze

Scholes Keane Park

Rooney Ruud Ronaldo

Would anyone happen to have a clip of the lights turning off in the house on Saturday's show. I missed it and it makes me very emotional

Right here's the story. My computer recently crashed so I had to get it fixed. Now that it's back I've had to install everything back on it including Footballl Manager 2005, but when I go to start a new game it keeps on shutting down and going back to my start up window. What is causing this to happen and is there anyway to fix this?

BTW I'm using Patch 5.0.2

Thanks J-Rod

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Great film. Liked it much better than the original. The kids done a fantastic job in their roles and again Johnny Depp shows us why he is one of the greatest actors of all time.

Bye Phil, God I can't stand him, I've never rated him as a player even if he does (used to) play for Utd. He could be good somewhere else but I don't think he was Utd standards so to speak.
