    old melty face stating the obvious again

    i'm sure we all know that free means no transfer fee and not actually for **** all (granted he did go on and praise Ba but he couldn't resist the dig)

    Does anyone else think Gary Cahill is just a very average player? He basically confirmed this for me on Boxing Day, yet Chelsea are willing to pay a lot of money for him.

    Was he at Villa? Pretty sure it was him who scored that ridiculous overhead kick. Never seen anything to suggest he's a decent defender.

    Edit: Just checked his Wiki, he's 26! I thought he was about 23, he's older than Taylor.

    won't get a argument from me it just shows what your money gets for English/established prem players compared to going abroad

    Dutch newspapers meanwhile confirm that Newcastle have attempted to bring teenage forward Jordan Botaka to Tyneside on trial from Belgian side Club Brugge.

    The Dutch-born 18 year-old was previously with Den Haag, Westlandia, Beveren, Lokeren and Anderlecht (which seems a lot for someone that age) and is yet to make a senor debut.

    Brugge reportedly turned down Newcastle's initial request to take Botaka on trial back in November to take Botaka on trial, while Blackburn Rovers and West Ham have now also been credited with an interest with the U19 international.

    didn't know this where's 5 goals when you need him

    He's still talking ****, our total payments to agents was 6m and Marveaux will have got a significant slice of that as well. Be surprised if Ba's deal cost more than 3m.

    Apparently Roman Abramovich is on his Xmas holidays in Lech, Austria. Which is where I am. And there is bloody loads of snow and no flights so I hope he is stuck he for ages and can't sign Tiote. I hope. And if he skis, I will push him off a cliff.

    Gary Cahill is so average it's unreal. It's criminal he is a top choice for England. Especially over Taylor.

    Surely Cabaye's, Obertan's and Santon's agents would've got some of that as well?

    And tbh Cabaye, Santon and maybe Obertan are well known and would probably require more agents fees

    I think free agents tend to get more as we saved money on a transfer fee.

    Weirdest dream last night.

    We were playing sunderland and we had ireland and gosling in midfield, I was coming home from work so missed the first half (apparantly the game started at like 10 at night) to find that we were 3-0 down. Now watching it I was getting annoyed as some blatant refereeing decisions going against us. In the end I just turned the tv off and started the game again, apparantly you can do that.

    Always said he was, can see him scoring tonight, would me mint if it was 1-0 with the Liverpool fan scoring for us.
