Mikel must feel like hiding under a rock, having persuaded the septics to unload ?100k a week on him.
Even Willian had a couple of high points during his short stint.
Has there been a worse signing ? Sonogo Jeffers Kallstrom, Inamoto. Pepe ?

He did assist Ethan for his first league goal {and played well with him in the Milk Cup game when he first really announced himself.}Quote:

He surely has at least one performance in his locker. He owes Mikel if nothing else..Quote:

I doubt Sterling is desperate....Quote:

No, from his point of view it's exactly the sort of night he signed up for. A team challenging for trophies, 3-nil up after an hour every week; joining in the fun for ten minutes at the end for sparkling cameos. Or like this tie; progress secured, a rare start and a nice relaxed kickabout with the boys.Quote:

Kallstrom - he was a great signing. Scored in the penalty shootout v Wigan. Only league start was a 3-1 home win over West Ham but even that is impressive when you consider how hard we find it to beat those ****ers at home.Quote:

Sterling will have his moment - mark my words.
I think you're right. It might only be one moment, but he will have one.Quote:

An interesting team of tricky midgets. And why not.Quote:

So that's obviously not what we're doing :-)
Three left backs in the team, surely one of them is playing at left backQuote:

4 LBs. We keep forgetting Yakob. We've got Cala and JT on the bench. Give Cala a go up front and give MLS a rest at some point in the 2nd half and play JT there.Quote:

Didn't the postman come on in the semi and change the game? Played as a sort of battering ram, got a late equalizer. Also came on in the final when we needed an equaliser.Quote:

You'd think there would be a few.Quote:
