I apologise, but why are you so confident about Nando?

But not often enough to call him "Garry?"

Perhaps you've been wasting all that rage about people's use of the apostrophe.

Many people have problems with the apostrophe. [You're not alone.]

When the possessor is single we indicate possession by using an apostrophe followed by the letter s:

The man’s coat
my sister’s hat

When the possessors are plural, the apostrophe is placed after the final s:

The girls’ bicycles
my cousins’ parents

When names end with the letter ’s’, either use is acceptable:

James’ wife or
James’s wife


Hope that helps. Now, in the future, you can be accurate when criticising someone's use of the apostrophe. ;)

Careful!!!

He may think this is another malicious attack...

[city-adam]

im not going through the thread so whats the latest on torres :) ?

 

[Jim Tolmie's Underpants]

im not going through the thread

Don't blame you. The last few pages are full of off-topic drivel and dross.

so whats the latest on torres :) ?

Reports suggest he wants Champs football and maybe off to Chelsea.

 

[blumoonrisen]

Hopefully the news that he's off to Chelsea is true... last thing we want is a Croque the 2nd, that... coupled with the fact he doesn't want to join us anyway... should be a clear sign to steer clear of him..

 

[lee-mcfc]

keep saying it but i still think he will stay at lpool or move to chelsea ;)

 

[Tez Tosterone]

If Torres wants CL football then doubtless Chelsea will end up wasting €70m on him.

Compare that with the €37m Barcelona paid for the far superior goal machine David Villa.

I rest my case.

Nice one, Nev. What a dumbas's. ;-)

I rest my case.

While Torres isn't worth 2x that, Villa is not "far superior" to him.

 

[sam221985]

If we don't get Torres we go all out for Dzeko, simple.

Torres would send a bigger statement of intent to the premiership, be better for marketing etc, but I think Dzeko could be equally as effective in strictly football terms.

While Torres isn't worth 2x that, Villa is not "far superior" to him.

Villa may not be far superior to a fully fit and match sharp Torres, but that isn't guaranteed with Torres these days is it.

So as an overall proposition, yes i would agree that Villa is far superior.

£70m is a ridiculous and unjustifiable amount of money when you think what Villa went for.
