Huth hasn't played regular football for a while though hasn't he?

You're right it's not very good. Decent I'd say. In the top 30 leagues in the world IMO. Cobi Jones retired last season.

He's played what looks like every game since Dec 1st.

You get coverage of the A-League in England?

He wishes he did, he yearns for Australia.

I once stumbled across a highlights package on Sky, but I'm fairly sure it was last season & my give-a-toss factor was quite low & haven't been arsed to watch it since, so dunno if it exists anymore or not. Disappointing lack of ageing and/or failed British players.

Hmm. We've signed Jermain Defoe, which I'm absolutely ecstatic about, except to afford him we had to sell Benjani, only City didn't get their papers in in time. Hence, we find out next week whether or not we actually have the £7million we paid for Defoe, or whether Benjani is staying and we're broke.

You have a Russian billionaire owner. You can't be broke. (Especially when it's as good as certain the transfer will go through in June.)or whether Benjani is staying and we're broke.

Gaydamark looking to punt Pompey, if The Guardian is to be believed.

Sorry, can't keep up with the revolving door of ****ership owners.
Banks will still be running to the club to offer a loan.

Anyway, have a feeling the transfer will go through after a review. Not sure why, just a feeling. Probably won't though. You'll survive, I'd say.

Heard he has a tattoo of Australia on his backside.
Hell I'm even more of an Australian then he is, and I'm not actually a citizen.

Presume Curbs is having a dig at Aluminia there, who isn't actually in the sqaud (or even qualified yet as far as I know).

Regardless, I find it absolutely unbelievable that he isn't considered one of the top three English goal-keepers. There's more to it IMO.

Fair point. I'd have him above Carson & Kirkland, certainly.
Maybe Capello has a thing for tall keepers? All three he chose are taller than Green, James & Kirkland considerably so.

Joe Hart for England tbh.

Something against West Ham football club even....
Green is hardily short though. He's 6' 3" (191cm)
I would have expected Dean Ashton to have been considered too even though he is coming back from injury and even Matty Etherington who is a true left-side midfielder.
