*Official* English Football Season 2006-07

Jungle Jumbo

International Vice-Captain
From today's Guardian:

I know the Icelandic geezer is supposedly minted, but the report mentions Lucas Neill, Mark Viduka, John Hartson, Ashley Young, Moritz Volz, Sylvain Distin, Nigel Quashie and Joey Barton!
Shaun Wright-Phillips mentioned in other sources. Just looked on the BBC's transfer rumours page, which basically summarises what the tabloids have to say before putting it into proper English. Such as the proposed move of Joleon Lescott to Real Madrid for £7m. Who pays these hacks?

Looks like Aussie may finally get his wish.

Can't really see Man Utd paying £20 Million without selling someone first though.

Michael Carrick mark two…

Also what a ridiculous fee for a guy whose sole quality is that he has a decent tank, so does Haile Gebrselassie. Even more funny 'athing' about Owen is how 99.9 % of the British public thought he was complete and utter dog **** before the WC. When anyone who has seen the guy play for FC Bayern over the years would have said that his a pretty decent footballer and well worth having in the England side. But the complexity that a man would play abroad and blinked nature to foreign football meant that his was solely a curly haired Canadian dick who ironically because of his 'great' performances in the WC is now one of the finest footballers in the world, give me a break or Liam Miller.

Haha, nice rant. The thing is, he'll always be like Rusedski, English when he's doing well and Canadian or whatever when he isn't.

For sure. Andy Murray has the same problem in tennis, British when his winning and when throwing the toys out of the pram (i.e losing), a spoilt, curly haired Scotsman.
