Roster Depth Sicko No. 2

Rudy Gestede and Tom Cairney have joined Blackburn from Cardiff and Hull, respectively.

I'd recommend Solskjaer try and sign Rogerio Ceni to solve their 'lack of goals from goalkeepers' conundrum.

55 players isn't exactly short, I agree. Think I'm more shocked 20 of them are defenders.

Lost faith in Fellaini? We were just getting some decent performances out of him when he got injured. And to say that Moyes needs to get rid is just silly, he's only played ten games or so anyways, the lad needs time to settle in. I agree with Ando though, he'll be shipped out either in this window or the next. I highly doubt Anderson would have a big enough value for them to dent Vidal's price tag, they'll have to take a loss and just try to get anything in my opinion. Fellaini's performances haven't impressed me this season, though I understand that's a view that'll differ from person to person. I just don't think he was the player to solve their problems, and the farce over letting his buyout clause go past and having to spend extra money on him was bemusing. Maybe you're right and he'll settle after a few more months, but at the moment, to me at least, he isn't looking worth the outlay yet.

You know, Pulis manages Palace now. Totally slipped my mind He's a better choice for Palace anyway, to get their defence tighter to keep their survival hopes up.

McGeady would be a great signing for Everton, isn't he available fairly cheap too? Could do with some more depth on the wings. Vidal to United will not happen, but it shows how much they've already lost faith in Fellaini, who's failed to solve any of their midfield issues and instead had Carrick just step up massively. I'd try and ship him and Anderson out in the same deal to reduce the cost if I was Moyes. Scott Dann's a safe choice for Stoke, not a big fee, has previous Premier League experience, can see that happening if Blackburn's financial troubles still exist.

To anyone interested, here's the shortlist for the FIFA World XI: Goalkeepers Gianluigi Buffon (Juventus & Italy) Iker Casillas (Real Madrid & Spain) Petr Cech (Chelsea & Czech Republic) Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich & Germany) Victor Valdes (Barcelona & Spain) Defenders David Alaba (Bayern Munich & Austria) Jordi Alba (Barcelona & Spain) Dani Alves (Barcelona & Brazil) Leighton Baines (Everton & England) Jerome Boateng (Bayern Munich & Germany) Ashley Cole (Chelsea & England) Dante (Bayern Munich & Brazil) Mats Hummels (Borussia Dortmund & Germany) Branislav Ivanovic (Chelsea & Serbia) Vincent Kompany (Manchester City & Belgium) Phillip Lahm (Bayern Munich & Germany) David Luiz (Chelsea & Brazil) Marcelo (Real Madrid & Brazil) Pepe (Real Madrid & Portugal) Gerard Pique (Barcelona & Spain) Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid & Spain) Thiago Silva (PSG & Brazil) Raphael Varane (Real Madrid & France) Nemanja Vidic (Manchester United & Serbia) Pablo Zabaleta (Manchester City & Argentina) Midfielders Xabi Alonso (Real Madrid & Spain) Gareth Bale (Real Madrid & Wales) Sergio Busquets (Barcelona & Spain) Steven Gerrard (Liverpool & England) Andreas Iniesta (Barcelona & Spain) Isco (Real Madrid & Spain) Mesut Ozil (Arsenal & Germany) Andrea Pirlo (Juventus & Italy) Marco Reus (Borussia Dortmund & Germany) Franck Ribery (Bayern Munich & France) Arjen Robben (Bayern Munich & Netherlands) Bastian Schweinsteiger (Bayern Munich & Germany) Yaya Toure (Manchester City & Ivory Coast) Arturo Vidal (Juventus & Chile) Xavi (Barcelona & Spain) Forwards Sergio Aguero (Manchester City & Argentina) Mario Balotelli (AC Milan & Italy) Edinson Cavani (PSG & Uruguay) Diego Costa (Athletico Madrid & Brazil) Didier Drogba (Galatasaray & Ivory Coast) Radamel Falcao (Monaco & Colombia) Zlatan Ibrahimovic (PSG & Sweden) Robert Lewandowski (Borussia Dortmund & Poland) Mario Mandzukic (Bayern Munich & Croatia) Lionel Messi (Barcelona & Argentina) Neymar (Barcelona & Brazil) Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid & Portugal) Wayne Rooney (Manchester United & England) Luis Suarez (Liverpool & Uruguay) Robin Van Persie (Machester United & Netherlands) League Summary Liga BBVA: 19 Premier League: 15 Bundesliga: 12 Ligue 1: 4 Serie A: 4 Turkish Super Lig: 1 Nation Summary Spain: 10 Brazil: 7 Germany: 7 England: 4 Argentina: 3 Italy: 3 France: 2 Ivory Coast: 2 Netherlands: 2 Portugal: 2 Serbia: 2 Uruguay: 2 Austria: 1 Belgium: 1 Chile: 1 Colombia: 1 Croatia: 1 Czech Republic: 1 Poland: 1 Sweden: 1 Wales: 1

Berbatov to Arsenal could be a decent cover option for £2m. He can still do a job up top, and he's a proven goalscorer. Top bit of shrewd business by Arsene in my opinion, even if the fans will be calling for a major signing like Diego Costa or someone to that effect.

Not enough has been said about this, Benedict Cumberbatch plays the role to perfection, not to mention having such a great name (irrelevant but always noteworthy). Martin Freeman is a wonderful counterpart to him as well, great to see the show return.

Despite all the arguing about the legitimacy of Raf's rumours, this one at least looks true. Taken from the BBC Live Feed of today's games:

Same colour shirt as the opposition goalkeeper or something, which isn't allowed, so he had to change it. Good finishes from Fernandinho and Bony, even if Bony was offside. Top notch header and a great drive from Fernandinho, who's quietly proving he's worth the outlay City spent on him in my opinion.

Yeah, if you can defend on Ultimate Team, you're golden. My win record with my current team is about 80% purely based on good defence, incisive break aways and pot luck with the occasional long shot.

Well clearly we can see the problem then. The other eleven weren't giving him the ball enough. I think this might be a problem ...I was including the manager.

OK, I've gone through the full list so far, this is the extent of my opinion: Like them (6/94): Know of them, listen to them occasionally (19/94): Know and have listened to them only because of my girlfriend (3/94): Don't like them (8/94): Heard of them, but never listened to them properly (28/94): Never heard of them (30/94): For some clarity, most of the 'Know of them, listen to them occasionally' is stuff my dad plays when he's working at home, and I just grow to like it, and the 'Heard of them, but never listened to them properly' category is stuff I've heard maybe five songs to and never played a full album on purpose or I just know the name and have never listened to them and known it was them. The 'Never heard of them' are people I've never heard music for at all, or just don't recognise the name. List makes me feel very young compared to the rest of you.

Doubt Newcastle will be happy half time came when it did, they had some good pressure towards the end and the break'll give Arsenal time to regroup.

Well, safe to say that wouldn't have been my first guess.

I'm more interested in knowing the one left over.

Good God, that is evil.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F90Cw4l-8NY Girlfriend got me their new album for Christmas, and it's the type of rock/pop mix I've really gotten into lately. This song, Laura Palmer, and Things We Lost In The Fire have had a fair amount of plays over the last few days. EDIT: Damn thing won't embed for some reason

I think the cone thing you're referring to is Claus Co., they only show the roof in the picture.

I still need the Helter Shelter (think that's what it's called), Plow King, Snow Deity thing and Snow Grampa, don't know if there's anything else behind him.

Wait, you can play this on a PC?

Mine never force closes, it'll glitch me out briefly when the low battery message pops up but it loads my town straight away afterward.

Username is TC_Chybs.Open to anyone adding me, don't think I'm at the maximum yet and there's some deadweight on my Origin friends list that need clearing out anyway.
