kurt...you don't wear a hat. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Easy to make bets you can't keep.
Say you'll eat your boxers...and you're on. With Queiroz gone, I think SAF is hitting a bit of a brick wall. It's kinda like what happened to Rijkaard when Ten Cate left. Ramos is doing good from the looks of things. He's always been smart on the transfer market. Chelsea have again got a new coach, so it might take them some time to get the momentum going. Arsenal are the only club which seems to have the continuity and the relative stability to continue. If their strikers can stay injury free, I'd go so far as to say there's a top 2 finish in the offing. |

QUOTE (dst @ Jul 17 2008, 03:31 PM) Bergkamp should be number one! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) well it's hard to argue with 226 goals in 380 matches...but in terms of "leaving on a high note" then I agree with you. |

If their strikers can stay injury free, I'd go so far as to say there's a top 2 finish in the offing. I think United will suffer if they lose Ronaldo, but until they lose him, it doesn't really matter who their manager is. But I personally feel Queiroz has just as much importance to the team than Fergie does of late, I think Fergie is just there as a symbol to be honest. I'm not so sure with Ramos' transfers to be honest. He spent £20m on a new defense in January, and it didn't really work and now he's gone and spent nearyl £40m on midfield an attack and another £10m on a keeper. If they don't finish in the top 5, he should get the sack, he's made silly transfers - Modric for £16m! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) - and he hasn't learned from Jol one bit. I think having a DoF doesn't help at all, worst position on the football staf, it just ruins teams. Better not to have obe. Chelsea will be fine I reckon, 1st is Ronaldo leaves, 2nd if he stays. As for Arsenal, 3rd, no matter what. |

QUOTE (dst @ Jul 17 2008, 06:31 PM) Bergkamp should be number one! Second that with all my heart. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) If there is one player I remember when I recall the name Arsenal, it's Bergkamp. Henry at a distant second, and then all them other players. Then again, that's just me. The fans think different. Maybe the numbers are skewed with younger fans voting in favor of Timbo (my brother likes to call Henry that). I wouldn't be surprised. |

We have to remember that in terms of skill, Henry and Bergkamp are far ahead of the rest, and while Bergkamp edges out Henry on technique, Henry's scoring record has been out of this world during his Arsenal career. |

-Makelele off to PSG. -Lampard still training in Chelsea. I dunno... but Ballack, Deco and him in the same squad just doesn't make sense. I believe he'll go to Inter at the end. (IMG:http://d.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20080721/capt.3873582e0a234486bc5aa1bec0404484.china_soccer_chelse_xin104.jpg) -Chelsea in talks with Robinho and Real might sell him (meaning C.Ronaldo in) -Berbatov to United?! Robbie Keane to Liverpool?! Both good players, would improve both teams. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Keane is a good foward though a **** sometimes (ever seen his goal celebration?!). Better than Shuyt and Voronin. I'm just suprised they're willing to splash some millions on a foward when what they need is top-class wingers. Naughty term removed. This post has been edited by Tennie: Jul 22 2008, 01:11 PM |
