Jeez man, this soccerball is confusing.

Are you American or an ex-pat?

Would Spurs be even better if there was a break for commercials every 15 minutes? It might improve King's chances of playing regularly (only teasing- I know you don't do sarcasm <laugh>)

I actually think americanising the game would be good for us- we could do with a specialist kicker for dead ball situations who could come on and off when needed.

Damn double-posting!!!

Make your double posting worth while by answering that one.

VDV or Modders would be the choices but I wouldn't trust them to defend as well as Benny. Neither are as quick and can be rather rash and get themselves injured in the process or even carded.

Really?! This is getting ridiculous. I'm immediately imagining that it's an anti-cosumerist stance but that might be because I'm falling in love with him.
 
Benny is just a walking contradiction.

Plays football 'for the money' but refuses boot sponsorship.

Drives a smart car around but collects supercars.

Hopefully it was a left and right that got damaged?

The American poet Walt Whitman once said:

"Do I I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself, I am large, I contain multitudes".



(Though TBH I'm not sure those things about Benny contradict one another).

Take your point, but if you add Walker into the mix then there is plenty of pace and ability on the ball in the opposing half should there be a break away. Arguably, pure defensive strength may not be the prerequisite in those situations. And if we get more accuracy with corners as a result of him taking them then there should be fewer of those opportunities for opponents.

We can but only try and if we start scoring from those set pieces then we are on to a winner.
 
I've said it before, but I just can't comprehend how no boot company has taken him on.
He's an advertiser's dream, isn't he?
He couldn't have a more distinct brand if he tried.

Its not like that PNP, I've read it elsewhere than that link but can't find it, he doesn't want one. He's happy being paid for work he does and thats all, doesn't feel right money for nothing, he needs to feel he's earnt it....admirable or stupid, can't make my mind up! <laugh>
