*Official* English Football Season 2006-07

[Matteh]

Fair point cant disagree the reds do have a slightly stronger depth, but is all about who performs on the given days.

Loser talk, imo.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Right, so where Liverpool have players who didn't play this weekend such as Finnan, Paletta, Garcia, Alonso, Kewell, Crouch and Kuyt, United have Heinze (but then Evra started!), Richardson, Carrick, Fletcher, Miller and Rossi.

I think I know which back-up I'd prefer.

Well, Liverpool fielded their second team against Sheffield Utd...

 

[sledger]

not really they didnt...there were plenty of first choice players out there.

Like Sissoko, Aurelio, Kromkamp, Zenden and Bellamy? One-and-a-halfth team, then.

 

[sledger]

reina, carragher, gerrard, fowler, riise...to name a few more, and tbh sissoko and bellamy are indeed going to be regulars, as is aurelio i imagine after impressing the other day.

 

[steds]

Somehow can't see Fowler getting much gametime ahead of Bellamy, Kuyt and Crouch.

 

[Kweek]

Kuyt will fail, mark my words.

 

[Matteh]

He was very average in the WC it has to be said.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Crouch looking good again for Liverpool, shame Garcia has finished tamely from two very good chances.

 

[sledger]

Kuyt will fail, mark my words.

from what i have seen of him i have never been convinced at all, from what i have seen huntelaar looks like a much more interesting prospect.

 

[sledger]

jenas scoring this evening is rather good for my fantasy team.

 

[Matteh]

Mansfield 2 v 0 Huddersfield

This is an amazing result for us
Hope we get a Prem club at home in the 2nd round.

Sissoko is a superb player.

Last season was meant to be his get used to the club with mainly reserve football, but he was too good for that.

I concur. He's one of the main reasons Stevie G looks consistently better for Liverpool than he does for England. Didi Hamman being the other.

Not much use though when their 1st team can only draw 1-1 at a promoted club with the aid of an extremely dodgy penalty though is it?

 

[Tom Halsey]

My predictions:

1. Manchester United - if we get one more signing
2. Chelsea
3. Liverpool
4. Tottenham
5. Arsenal

18.Charlton
19.Sheffield United
20.Watford

Last year I called it for Chelsea to win and for United to finish second so this year I'm reversing and hoping for my predictions to come through again.

No.

Niall Quinn doing a fine job with Sunderland. Going to bring a "top, world class" manager in very soon. Expect Peter Reid to be in charge then.

 

[sledger]

why would a world class manager want to go there anyway lol.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Was a lot of paper talk about Fat Sam being up for the gig last week, but what with him trying to sign Mad Nick now I can't see it coming to pass.

 

[TT Boy]

His actually now resigned. Bless.
