    ... although in fairness Kamamoto didn't play in the modern era ... whilst his record of 80 goals in 84 appearnces is, by any measure, impressive, many of those goals were scored against South East Asian opposition or during Japan's repeated succeses in the Norwich Hospitals Invitation Trophy <ok> <cheers>

    1964-77, though. Very similar time to Gerd Muller and I don't see anyone writing him off.
    Quite easy to pick at Okazaki's record, too. Lots of goals in friendlies and against teams ending in stan, for example.

    Might be best to leave it as is, eh? Especially as Japan's second highest scorer did it from 90-00 and is bizarrely still playing.
    Miura's famous for carrying on forever, basically. He's 51 and he signed a new contract in January. Scored a goal in March, too.

  7. There is an article in Time Magazine entitled "How Messi Spends His Millions."

    Well, we know it's not on paying his taxes, yeah?

    They've won your bet, at least.
    Senegal nearly brought on a West Ham player and they were immediately punished with a goal.

    You probably shouldn’t play this game mate, spurs have had a long list of utter ****e over the last couple of decades.

    I’ll raise your Szczesny with David Bentley <laugh>
