I don't think drogba's overrated, he's a very very dangerous player for any defence to face, he's not consistent enough though due mainly to the occasions where he falls down screaming at the slightest touch

Eto’o, Drogba, Henry, Rooney, Adebayor, Messi, Torres, Van Nist, Berbatov. I'd rather have all that lot ahead of Trez. He's scored a fair few goals for Juve I know. Trez is just an out and out goal scorer though, so to compare some of those on your list is quite frankly absurd. I mean you've mentioned Messi in there for Christ sake, last time I checked they both never even played the same positions. So that's your average justification for Davide what's Pips excuse? Neither are fit to tie Vieri's boots imho. Don't think he needs on really http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filippo_Inzaghi check out his goal scoring record since 1997 he's scored around 1 in 2.3 games has won everything there is to win and has an excellent international goal scoring record too

If we end up with no players (a big if btw!) I won't be blaming Spurs, I'll be blaming big Mike.... It's not his fault as soon as the papers get wind of our interest Spurs immediately ring up and offer "twice whatever Newcastle have offered for this pukka geezer". I dont think we have ever outbid you for a player have we? Add to that the fact we have a 50K wage ceiling. Players just want to play for us because we have a manager with a great reputation. Darren Bent is on 90k a week iirc. Absolute fabrication, he got a big signing on fee and this was factored into his wage. Don't believe what you read fella. We have the best wage to turnover % in the prem (45%) source?

I was watching west germany v the USSR earlier beckenbauer and muller both playing for the germans, made russia look like fools

the difference he makes to united is actually astounding, he doesn't get loads of goals but his general play is always really good

I don't think bentley is overrated, putting him down because he cant cross as good as becks is pretty harsh really as for barry, just look at how different england are when he's playing in centre mid, we always look better with him on the pitch

because they are rubbish and wont get through their group WUM world champions=rubbish they are an aging side though and in the group of death with france and holland so any one of those three could go out, I wouldn't put money on any of them until after the group stage myself

wouldn't go for torres spain?

I have done I think it's a good call. I heard he'll be starting every game. I'll be pissed if he doesn't. that's why I'm splitting my bets

who can say but going off his 28 in 32 I'd have though so assuming he takes his form into training/euro matches I'm actually putting a bit of money on my shouts but I'm going for them seperately instead of 1 because I'm not sure about him think I'll put one in for ronaldo to top score as well

I'm going for Germany with Gomez at top scorer

stevies hit a nerve there

was expecting it to be barry myself but that's fine by me

I'll honestly say that one's got me a bit mystified too, I'm pretty sure you beat us to modric what with him being your player now and all

complete rubbish

who's missing from a full strength usa side?

toon legend oguchi onyewu starting for the yanks at centre back

we're sorry, this video is no longer available

Brilliant find jimbo

while terry is an overrated cheating racist I'd have gerrard or rio

cheers

dammit, this wasn't supposed to be a new topic

same here, he said he'd move the captaincy around until the WC quals and that's exactly what he's doing
