On the Eve of the new Season...

The Sun is a trashy tabloid without question, but they are damn good with the footie scoops.

You really need to start tempering my expectations on this front.  I've been asking for this move for over two years….

But, just because:

Talk is gathering pace that Manchester United have sent some delegates to Milan to discuss the potential signing of Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder.

35million and 190k per week.

OR

Nani and ??million and 190k per week.

I'd take the Nani option myself. Don't like him so cash in on him.

Either way, a deal is allegedly done and pen to paper in next 48 hours.

I agree, especially after the Ashley Young deal.  After watching Young yesterday, I could have swore I was watching Dwight York.  Same posture and running style…

Apparently the Sneijder deal is down to just wages.  I have a footie sized chubby.

What size? 3, 4 or 5?

Walkie wants to know!!!  :)

Jozi to Holland (AZ Alkmaar).  Not clear if it's a sale or a loan, but he'll definitely get more playing time there than Villarreal.

BTW - Machaeda should get a contract with MLS because it seems he can only perform on US soil.

Especially with that hair.

a total WTF weekend…

You know…while watching the womens world cup I couldn't help but get the feeling something was missing from what you get watching the men play. Then it came to me!!

Diving
Faking injury
Rolling around like an extra in the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan at the slightest contact.
Verbally abusing the officials
Grace and dignity in defeat.
Grace and humility in victory.

Congratulations to Japan and thank you to all ladies for putting the 'beautiful' back in the beautiful game.

What does it do?

Mostly, he posts videos of himself and the players busting on each other.  And it follows his twitter feed.

I'm shooting for a cameo appearance on the app in Chicago this weekend.

Hmmm….I thought Seattle took the game to them for most of the first half. Once Keller was out of the net the defense just fell apart, which proves how important a strong goalie is. Which is also a concern for me for United when the big boy league starts.

Nani still using United games for the "Nani show" and I would like to see him gone. He's not handsome enough to be the next Ronaldo.

If I was Rooney I'd be thinking 'refund' for the hair-job too.

Just in case you missed it..

What's the difference between Amy Winehouse and Sir Alex Ferguson?

Fergie can still play Giggs!!!!


;D

city just signed Aguero…


good player.. remains to be seen how he does in Premier League


on Argentina national team he's been better than Tevez..

I understand they are looking to get rid of Tevez…

I don't think any other team wants to deal with Tevez….regardless of his obvious talents.

One minute he's kissing the badge then the next demanding to be traded….
