Jermaine Pennant

Nah, he's playing.

Walker would struggle to be a bench player at Vasco. He's so awful.

The Hornets suck.

Sambadoesthe Emerson. Get your facts straight, Colly!

Well, you got that right. Since he didn't use any surname I'll take that as an answer. Met the guy at a bar, once. He said Ronaldinho was gay.

Wait, I know that guy. Emerson Paredão! Now lemme get my guy: 1990–1992 Flamengo0 (0) 1992 Coritiba 0 (0) 1992–1994 Belenenses 55 (1) 1994–1996 Porto 60 (9) 1996–1998 Middlesbrough 41 (4) 1998–2000 Tenerife 86 (4) 2000–2002 Deportivo La Coruña 43 (0) 2002–2003 Atlético Madrid 29 (2) 2003–2004 Rangers 14 (0) 2004–2005 Vasco da Gama 14 (1) 2005 Skoda Xanthi 16 (1) 2006–2007 AEK Athens 30 (1) 2007 APOEL 13 (0) 2008 Madureira 0 (0)

I heard about £80M but Liverpool would be willing to negotiate around £60M. Silly money anyways.

We'll get Jovetic to partner Torres at the next one and Rafa will cry. Of course not! I'm not *gulp* crying!

Yep, it has been there for a month or so.

Now I know the quality dropped but saying everyone is Vanarama Conference quality is stretching it.

It's come down to a position where I don't know if 8th seed is better than drafting Hezonja.

He had that great season In 11/12 if I remember correctly, then became shit.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. That makes us the 2nd best yellow-and-green national team!

Need to watch Godzilla and 300. Selma is fantastic.

We aren't. But post-World Cup we have the most successful record among the Top 20, friendlies or not. Everything will be put into test in June but for now we're looking ''great''.

4th September France 1 - 0 Spain 11th October France 2 - 1 Portugal There are also several teams in the top 20 of the FIFA rankings who, like Brazil, are unbeaten since the World Cup. Unlike the Harlam Globetrotters that Brazil basically are though, most of them have played actual competitive football (as an aside, one of the teams - Costa Rica - is unbeaten in normal play since June 2nd 2014). So, a qualifier against Lithuania is better than a friendly against France? And the idea of the Harlem Globetrotters is silly. How long has it been since we played attractively?

No one achieved better results than we did post-World Cup. Sure, nothing is certain, we might get spanked by Argentina in the Copa America but we went through two top teams in these last 8 months. Something that only Argentina (who we beat) did.

We're the best national team at the moment. Still, I wonder if we're being lucky or if the players are going 110% when the other teams are going 80% because Brazil played mostly friendlies.

Is that the guy that said he was George Weah's cousin?

Carbo-something? Oh, Liam. :/
