EVERY SINGLE KEEPER out there will be linked to us. Even Buffon! its up to us to look at it critically, and see which makes sense and which is just sensationalized news.

Yes you can discuss any news out there. but how many years ady have we been discussing about Sneijder

Sneijder is an example of the long running "discussions" than we have. everytime theres a search on midfield, the news will report him, and us fans will be like hyper. But wind is just wind. Neuer is just one of those long going transfers too, since last season even when people are speculating if VDS gonna retire.

there's nothing to warn. At the end of the day, when these transfers doesnt happen, and the team ends up having a bad run, then u will see what kinda posts comes out. "Oh we should have bought Ozil, our midfield lacks creativity". Where do we end up now? top of the table, 7 points on top. whose player tops the assist chart? NANI, our existing player.

Hamsik.

Bale for Player of the year is bullocks. If anything, VDV deserved it more from the tott camp. Heck Lennon is a better winger than Bale when it comes to EPL.

If arsenal drew Chelsea will go second due to goal difference.

SAF's target of the season is 85. If we wanna reach that we gotta win all games after this What a season this is!

Chelsea is the 3rd last game. Fixtures are:

Everton H
Arsenal A
Chelsea H
Blackburn A
Blackpool H

Everton is a must win game, while it would be a huge boost if we can deny both Arsenal and Chelsea a win, even if that means drawing both of them - i dont mind. Blackburn away would be a bit tricky, and if it really comes to this, Blackpool at home to finish it off.

"A competitor who exhibits poor sportsmanship after losing a game or contest is often called a "sore loser" (those who show poor sportsmanship after winning are typically called "bad winners"). Behavior includes blaming others, not taking responsibility for personal actions, reacting immaturely or improperly, making excuses for one's loss, referring to unfavorable conditions or other petty issues. A bad winner acts in a shallow fashion such as gloating about his or her win, "rubbing it in the face" of the one who lost and lowering the opponent's self-esteem by constantly reminding him of how poorly he performed in comparison (even if he participated well)."

Just something that comes to my mind when seeing Keane scored against Arsenal in the link posted above:

How many goals have our central midfield scored this season? Scholes + Carrick + Fletcher + Anderson + Gibson (did I miss out on anyone?)

Answer is 1+0+ 3 + 2 + 1 = 7. and this is from all competitions this season. I guess they contribute more in other ways, for example in hassling players. But hhmm...7 goals from 5 midfielders are not looking good. Schools used to bang in at least 10 during his prime season alone. But if the numbers of goal we have doesn't drop, that means the goals come from strikers + wingers. But do you think we could benefit from a scoring midfielders? Not to say attacking mid, just someone that can score as well as dictate midfield play. Aka prime scholes.
