They´re after 33 yo Dimitar Berbatov. They need to change their name to Q. P. P P.S Who do you want in the next round of the cup ? I say Sheep.
If they win their replay Sheff Utd for me. With a girlfriend from Sheffield with the surname blades it'd be a shame not to!
I fancy testing ourselves against the mighty Cambridge. Seriously though, we do deserve to dodge a Prem club this time. Bradford, Preston/Sheff U. Middlesborough or Derby would do me.
... firstly I'm a huge admirer of Berbatov ... one of the most intelligent footballers in the game ... could be a great foil for a finisher like Austin in fairness ... ... in the cup? ... having seen off Newcastle and Spurs we shouldn't fear anyone ... this is a very impressive cup run ...
We always seem to do well against Middlesbrough in my recollection, so i'd take them at home, im tired of us knocking out premier league opposition. Burbatovs in the same school as Defoe for me, intelligent player, but not going to chase a through ball, will prob have a similar effect as Phillips had for us last season in the Championship. His wages will also be about as high as Defoes, so thats a risk i wouldn't want us to take.
Whilst it's a good run, and I know we played Newcastle at home in the cup and away in the league and vice versa with spurs, I'd have rather had six points off them in the league matches and gone out in the third round...
I'd agree with that, thought i'd be the only one, avoiding relegation has to be the priority, these wins would have been good to have if we had some "winnable" fixtures coming up, but i cant see the FA Cup momentum helping us in the next few matches.
Man United looked very ordinary against Cambridge and were beaten at home recently by Southampton ... they certainly haven't sorted their defence out and I feel this is a good time to play them ... we should take the game to them and make them have to defend ... we are starting to look like a potential banana skin for anyone playing us ... and realistically that was always the best we could hope for this season ... I for one am optimistic that we can get something at United (provided we approach the game positively) ...
After Man U we have Palace at home who have picked up under Pardew but still one we need to targe winning
Yeah that's true, but we're not going to play him till the last game of the season! We've also signed Chinese international Fook All.
Did you know there is a 1st name in Turkey Ufuk & a surname Fukal, Now imagine the 2 together & he signs for a prem club ? I admit they´re not pronounced as you´d read them but still...
