Yeah! It feels like ages since the last one, and I can't recall. Which is the definite upside of winning more or less every game by halftime over the last few years.

Anybody know when our last-minute winner was before Tuesday?

City Watch have some different quotes, and attributes them to SSN. Anybody know if they're new?

Absolutely. Funny how some people genuinely believe that getting rid of Yaya and getting NDJ in on a free will improve our team.

Re: Gael Clichy I think it's inevitable that Gael will be rested, we're in December, and some of the teams we will come up against might need a bit of unlocking through Aleks' left peg.

The game just before QPR, against Newcastle. The Geordies were flying that season and were still in with a big shout for 4th place. Yaya manned up and dragged us through like he has so many times. I also remember at 1-0 Micah blocking a goal-bound shot with a flying header. And if I remember...

Grow up mate.

Think you will find Parma have the biggest squad: <a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parma_F.C.#First-team_squad" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parma_F.C. ... team_squad</a> Over 200 players (incl. loans and co-ownerships)

Do you lot think it would be fair to compare Draxler to Nasri, in the way they play? Whenever I've seen him, I always imagine Nasri in that position, making the same decisions.

He glides across the pitch like Dave does. This Januzaj kid is fucking special. To be this good at 18 isn't normal.

Genuinely, Gerrard, Scholes, Rooney, Terry and possibly Ferdinand were world class at one point or another. Gareth Barry wasn't as good as these at their prime, as much as I love Gaz.

Re: Manager of the month In all fairness, in December they had played 7 and won 5. That being said, Pelli MUST win it. Beating Hull and Norwich or Arsenal and Liverpool?

Their probably first XI would include Badstuber, Alaba, Kroos, Schweinsteiger, Lahm and Muller. Including 6 academy products is hardly buying the best players from other teams. Don't taint the team just because Rummenigge is a massive twat.

This guy?

Can't remember if it was during the live coverage or MotD highlights, but against Liverpool the commentator called one of his overlaps "one of his trademark runs". I think that explains perfectly how dangerous he is going forward now, he is being recognised as a genuine threat these days...

Re: Pearls of Wisdom from Tony Pulis The way the fans are cheering as he's complaining about 5 minutes is absolute poetry

What the fuck?

Or like when Jesse Owens raised his fist? A sports arena is one of the best places to make a protest gesture. I think the reason the Sports Minister is so outraged is because Anelka has been successful in his attempt to protest against the current French government, and is (understandably)...

Surely it's up to whoever did the gesture whether it's anti-Semitic or not? If the meaning behind it is ambiguous then it needs explaining. Nasri and Anelka said that it wasn't aimed at Judaism, so why are they offended by it? Oh, and I am very disappointed that nobody has wrenched...

I think that's the long and short of it, really. There are players who aren't suited to other countries, so I suppose that means there can be managers too.
