Watching that Ljajic, he plays like Kaka. He seems to be able to drift players with ease, he doesn't look that quick but he is. His control is good as well, he seems to create time on the ball. His end product obviously isn't there, but at 17/18 he looks frightening.

You just know that he will be the next big thing or something though.

He's probably at the right place for him to make that step up. A lot of Eastern European countries have good youth sides, but they never seem to have the best senior sides. Every time I've watched Serbia's youth side they've looked class, but not their national side.

This Ukraine side they're playing look awesome, but I bet in 5 years time, their national side will still be poor.

Watching Ljajic here, he looks like he could become a great player. Not sure if he'll go straight into the first team, but he looks far too good for reserve level.

Football magazines, boy those were the days. I might go buy a copy of Four Four Two to relive some past memories.

I really wish I still had some of those old copies. I do still have some of the old cards – the ones that used to come covered in dust from bubble gum. And then there was the Shoot poster of all the tables with slots in for the team tabs so that you could keep your own tables every season. And one of these days – I swear – I will actually complete a sticker book. I have so many almost-full ones.

In terms of magazines, though, I'd say that 90 Minutes was really good. I was very sorry when that went under.

Anyone watching England U-19's vs France U-19's?

The French have a young lad called Brahimi who is easily a cut above anybody on the field.

I saw some of this and in the bits I saw I thought Nathan Delfounso the Villa forward looked good,i can see him having a breakout season for the Villa this season.

All i've seen of him is just videos on that videos sharing site and he's looks to have bags of potential but then again i could make a 3 minute video and make myself look good. I'm looking forward to seeing him when he comes over in January along with Diouf who is another who looks devistating in the air from what i've seen online.

Anyone seen the new away kit? Black with a blue V it's one of the nicest shirts we've had in a long time

Then I saw her face, yeah I'm believer. I value your opinion Rob at least it proves it's not just United bias, funny you should say he's similar to Kaka as the serbian media dubbed him "The little kaka"

Just been thinking. What made YOU feel the way you do about the club you support.

The reason i say this is that i've just crawled through some old photos and i can shamefully say i was a Man U fan up to the age of about 7.

Why did i change to Liverpool ? None of my family are that big football fans and it cant be for glory as i was born in 1988. So Man U was the dominant team. However i dont quite know when the point was when i loved Liverpool. The passion i have for them now and the anger i have towards Man U is unreal.

my dad and aunty, used to go with their parents, dad starting taking me when i was about 6 or 7 and not that interested, my aunt still has a season ticket at 75 (i think) and has been going since the 1940s

Not a bad thing being dubbed little Kaka is it.
