    If I was a boxer, I'd be ****. Physical activity is something I've never been good at. I can be quick in go-karts though. Shame I found that out about 10 years too late.

    Haha I think most people who take sports fandom to our levels do it to compensate for being **** at sports :p I'd love to be good at a sport but I can't, so I watch to obsessive levels instead!

    Shameless self-promotion: I'm pretty good up front.

    Being **** didn't stop me from being captain for my course in our inter-department 7-a-side tournament <laugh>

    Explains why you know **** all about football

    I "captained" a five a side team once, but we were all horrendous (especially me) so it didn't really matter :p

    Then can you shed light on the all important question - is Morgan actually good or does he just make us think he is because he's so pretty?

    I pulled the strings in midfield, making a grand total of one assist in three games.

    Admit it, Football Manager helps that a lot.

    He's good and pretty. He is the perfect specimen.

    Yes, because it is also all-knowing.

    I can honestly say I wouldn't know half the players I do without it.

    We can say in 10 years when Fierro wins the Ballon d'Or that we saw him first. And Erick Torres. And Yaya Sonogo.

    It was Carlos Tevez back on FM05 when he was at Boca. I remember the conversation I had with my mate at school when I found him. Struck gold with that one.

    Well now we can say we knew about Brek Shea when he inevitably comes to Europe. I remember signing him in FM09 without knowing a thing about him, now all of a sudden he's one of the US's brightest talents.

    He's got the American hype machine behind him so I heard of him without FM :p

    I don't think Shea will make it. He seems a little too big and clunky to be a winger.

    He still has pace and skill, but sometimes he lets frustration get to him, and vents it by kicking the ball at linesmen.

    Before this Timbers file, my MLS knowledge was pretty much limited to Brek Shea, Dwayne De Rosario and Freddy Adu :p
