I think Schneiderlin has basically been in the same position as us. Feelings of pessimism, anger and betrayal have withered and been replaced by optimism and genuine delight at where we are. He's realising that there's more to his game than ruthless work rate and tackling and Koeman has realised this already whereas MoPo never did. Surely he's enjoying his position and freedom now more than ever?
Apparently it was Ubu...someone has admitted planting that one on the internet to win a bet. The dog's name is Ubu Roi.
Do you mean to say someone else was having a simmiler Bo Bo/ Ubu arguement to us, placed a wager on it, then upon realising they were wrong, uploaded a fake video? Brilliant.
I'd love to believe that but I can't. He's too good for Europa. The only reason he'd have gone for Europa this season was Poch. Morgan is my favourite player (i've got his french shirt!) but I think he'll be off at the end of the season unless something massive happens.
I got into an argument with my Chelsea supporting cousin and his sister's boyfriend earlier. I was saying that Schneiderlin was CL standard and they were saying he was decent PL player at best.
What's bloody hiliarious after this W/E is Spurs, Liverpool and Man U forums have all named him in their teams for the New Year. There must be at least 3 of him, 4 if we're going to keep him. They seem to think he is the cure for all ills (= losing a game when you play crap). 34 mill and we'll talk, 38 and you can have him.
Greensaint ...by the time the Jauary window opens, Spurs and Liverpool may already be out of Europe and them plus Liverpool may well be struggling for top four places too. In addition, if Spurs don't pick up soon Poch may well be sacked and looking for a job elsewhere. The way things look at the moment we may be higher in the league than some of the suitors!
