Here's one for you all. Imagine, if you can, you are the manager of your favourite team. Realistically, who would you buy and sell over the summer transfer window? Since Man U have already got Edwin van der Sar and Ji-Sung Park, I'd go for another midfielder in Michael Essien from Lyon but they are asking for a crazy fee of 20 million plus, same thing goes for Gattuso from A.C. Milan. Apparently Man U have first choice for Michael Owen if he leaves Real. He'd be a good signing but I don't think there will be any room there for him due to Rooney and van Nistelrooy, unless Ruud is sold.

im quite happy with mr moyes doing our transfers ta. if pistone and stubbs go will be even better.

[Mafro]

I'd keep Stubbs.

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

Clearly you haven't seen him play often. To be fair to Pistone there were spells last season when he was quite good.

[Mafro]

Hah! Don't you just love Chelsea? They've had a 57 million bid for Shevchenko turned down, still trying to buy success I see. Everton should go for players with Champions League experience, dunno who'd be good for them though. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing Ledley King at Man U, but I don't think Spurs would let him go.

Hah! Don't you just love Chelsea?

No.

You have to admit that Jose Mourinho provides some much needed amusement in interviews, and it's got even better now that Gordon Strachan's back in management:

Journalist: "Gordon, could you give us a quick word please"
Strachan: "Velocity."

Class.

quit game without saving

[Mafro]

Eh?

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

thats what you do when you lose a match you didnt want to.

[Sidders]

Yeah, it's just no fun if you don't win. I wish you could do it in real life, would save some embarrasing moments.

if you take over manyoo or the red sh*te then run them into the ground... thats amusing.
