Who is the worst player out of Zidane, Messi, Ronaldo, Iniesta, Pele and Maradona?

Williamson hasn't although he's hit the woodwork several times. Simpson has scored twice, but both times they were botched up attempts at crosses.

Davide Santon screamer from 30 yards.

I wouldn't shed any tears. He is fast as fuck though, which is why he could have a use late in the game.

She likes baking cakes and puddings. I love doing the rest. People always say that they never have time to cook once they get in from work, but I find it a good way to wind down. I'm in my element.

Got company tonight, but not loads of time, so making spagehetti alla carbonara and whacking a few supermarket pizzas in the oven. The main focus of the night is beer (and inevitably crisps).

We went to see that at the pictures. Wor lass had read the book a few months earlier. Apparently in the book they don't find out what "the song" is, which made the ending feel completely different.

Depends on what the recipe demands. Sometimes a quick, short burst will do the trick. Other times I enjoy it long and slow, although that can sometimes result in a messy sludge that you have to scrape out with a spatula.

I echo the opinions expressed above - spend a bit on a decent one. My mam and my mother in law both have an ancient food processor that they paid a canny wedge for back in the day, and they both swear by them. Generally speaking, the higher the cost, the better quality the motor is, meaning it is less likely to burn out prematurely. I think ours was about £150 ish, a Kenwood mixer. The food processor bit slots onto the top, and there's also space for a blender. The blender probably gets used the most when I'm making massive batches of curry base sauce.

He plays on the shoulder of the last man. If he tries it 10 times but gets caught offside 7 times, that's three one on one chances. He is a clever enough player, he knows when he's off and when he's not, but coinciding his run with a through ball is a fine art.

Obertain's biggest issue is complete lack of awareness of his team mates. His only real use to us as is a late sub, when he can be stuck on the half way line to allow quick counter attacks against a tired defence.

Cisse's movement and running off the ball is better than ever. All he needs to add is that finishing touch, which, as it's been said, is all about confidence. At the minute, he's lacking in faith in his own ability to find the net, so he's just trying to get shots on target. Once he's got a bit of a run going, he'll be going for the corners and trying to beat the keeper too. His time will come again, I'm sure.

Try it without any egg - just do it properly with meat and seasoning, chill it in burger shapes for a bit then whack on the grill.

Wow. Some strike. His body shape is absolutely spot on, particularly the standing leg. Brilliant.

But joking aside, that looks canny. You should try getting hold of some galangal to use instead of the ginger. It's very similar to ginger, except a little bit more peppery and aromatic. Goes beautifully in Thai (ish) soups and won't kick up a fuss that you've whacked a handful of pasta in either. Have a look in one of the Chinese supermarkets in town - they're great. The big bags of frozen tiger prawns are brilliant too, as are the frozen clams.

Does the bag of salad go in the soup?

The best beefburger I've ever tasted came from Kielder Organic Meats. The woman on the stall wouldn't tell me what they seasoned them with, despite my protests. They're simple, seasoned minced beef with nowt else added, but they've got them bang on. I think they charge about £1.20 per burger - worth every penny. I've tried to recreate them using salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and a very small amount of paprika. Close but not quite there yet. I remember watching some TV chef bloke (possibly Heston Blumenthal but I might be wrong) make burgers. He said that the best way to bind the meat is to use salt and chill them in the shape you want them. I've pretty much religiously stuck to that methodology ever since and it's never failed.

I wouldn't hesitate in doing that if I knew who it was. But in a crowd of people about 1500 strong, huddled together leaving the Gallowgate end in near darkness, it's tricky to pick one out of the crowd.

You're on a wind-up, surely? Did you only start watching NUFC 6 months ago?

Yeah, the booing was ridiculous. Some have said it was for the referee, but if that's the case, why not applaud the team first? There were some utter, utter bellends in the crowd last night. Some knob was lobbing coins into the crowd when they were walking out of the Gallowgate end after the game. One of the coins caught me on the back of the head at one point too

What's your solution then? Sell him and put Anita in there instead? We'd have 5 less yellow cards a season and surely climb 6 places in the league over night!

His reputation is shocking!

I'd also add, from last season: Alex Song - 10 yellows Gareth Barry - 8 yellows + 1 red Lee Cattermole - 11 yellows + 1 red Basically, if you play in that sort of position, you're expected to pick up bookings. If Tiote was picking up 20 a season, I'd be concerned. 15 and I'd raise an eyebrow. Anywhere in the 7-12 area and I shrug my shoulders.
