Are EE and the LGJM the same person? Seriously, for one person to be so biased is unfortunate but 2 people as bad as each other seems pretty implausible for me.

Then again, I remember EE telling us that Berbatov was the third most gifted player in the Premiership so I took his opinions with a pinch of salt long ago.

Regardless of whether or not I think LGJM is persona non grata, I wouldn't say he was bias. He is clear about the failings of Chelsea FC and some of it's players.

I got to admit I had not heard of you before this post but I stand by my high rating of Berbatov. How else can you explain why Ferguson and Hughes both thought he was worth £30m? If you cannot see that Berbatov is gifted then I can only think you are biased or clueless.

Neuer to Bayern Munich and Rossi to Barcelona with Bojan possibly going the other way.

Villa finally confirm what we all expected, Houllier's gone. At least when they appoint their new manager it'll stop Saddened and Dita's Slot Meter throwing the Moyes to Villa rumours about

Huge gane for England saturday. Be interesting to see who partners Wazza up front. Hopefully its Bent. Also would like to see a Wilshere, Parker, Lampard midfield. Young on the left and Theo on the right. If we win saturday that's us pretty much through.

I meant a two of three from Wilshere, Parker and Lampard.

I remember David Batty! Famous for getting a smack off Graeme Le Saux on the pitch.


'Whoever'

great little player Batty a better comparison would be with the late,great Billy Bremner IMO - a hardworking,tenacious lad who always gave 110%
a couple of noteworthy Batty moments - a) he refused a Championship Winners medal with Blackburn and b) was sent of on his last international appearance in probably th oldest average England team ever ! I wonder what the record actually is ?

Berbatov's performance for Spurs in 2007/08 in the CC remains the best individual display I've seen at Eastlands. Worked his socks off after Spurs were reduced to 10 men and Defoe was subbed and was pure class with every touch. I was really disappointed when he went to United rather than City.
