    Oh no! Not THAT kick again. Do you know how much **** I got from the Spanish about the useless "Arbitro Ingles" who failed to give him a red card?

    You should have pointed out the amount of cheating and diving that their side did in that tournament.
    I'm not Webb's biggest fan, but he was given an impossible task in that final.
    Both sides set out to con the officials, just in different ways. Horribly dishonest finish to the competition.

    Trying to con the ref is one thing, practicing your karate moves on the opposition in the middle of a WC final, is another! There's always a lot of play acting etc, but I found it impossible to defend Webb on that one. Blatant red card!

    Yeah, it was definitely a red card, but he probably had a bit of doubt about it because of the amount of playacting going on.
    How often do you see a player rolling about holding their face, when they haven't even had anything go anywhere near it?

    Players put second thoughts into the heads of officials, then moan when they act upon those thoughts.
    The Powers That Be need to deal with the cheating first. Until that's under control we'll continue to see big **** ups.

    Personally I thought he bottled it. Didn't want to be the ref who sent a player off in WC final...

    I'm sure that played some part. He'd have been slaughtered either way by somebody.
    Spoiled the spectacle and all of that bollocks.

    Good. No offence, but he's been injured for absolutely ages and the money being talked about was excessive.

    Was this in reference to something recent or just a comment out of nowhere?

    Is there a list yet of who is (thankfully?) leaving the club,I wonder?

    ....and/or could we have a straight swop with someone for our Belgian center back?I think he has outlived his welcome and seems so disinterested (like a few others)?

    It's so scary.Without Kane's goals we could have been going down with QPR!

    He's the man that your head of recruitment Paul Mitchell and your non english speaking manager had as their number one target in the summer transfer window...:emoticon-0100-smile

    I guess we'll have to console ourselves with Schneiderlin then.

    Doesn't change the fact that MoPo desperately wanted him...
    Jay was crucial to the high pressing style last season.

    Wanted. Past tense.
    The guy's had a bad injury and missed a lot of football. I doubt anyone will move for him until he's shown he's over it.

    No, he hasn't. He's made claims about the competition being important to him and wanting to play in it.
    He'll go to the highest placed or best paying club that matches your valuation of him.
    Arsenal probably should go for him, but it remains to be seen if they will. Wenger's not predictable on things like that.

    Our manager speaks English, probably better than your Spanish and possibly better than your English.

    Wanted past tense, because he has signed for us now....<doh>
    It's been all over the transfer gossip columns that Citeh and Spurs were after him this summer.
