I wonder who would take him?

There must be someone out there, surely??!!
It's surley very hard to work out as all other teams have some players already.
He should retire or be sold as glue or something.

I hear that Blackpool are interested. I hope they have plenty of water available on the beach in the summer months.

Both us and WBA have been charged for the handbags after the post Mclean/ Pereyra incident.

Busy weekend for the FA with Chelsea and Man City being charged too..

It won't change the result on Friday but both Shelvey and Dummett's red cards have been overturned:

Looks like video replays are going mainstream now, it surely won't be long before they are used in our league pyramid.

It'll be good for those moments such as an off the ball punch where the ref can't see it due to concentrating on the actual game .

Perhaps give each side an ability to alert the ref when the ball is out of play so they can review what it is...make the penalty for using it wrongly to be sent to the stand etc.

I think also eyeball monitoring glasses would be good as it would show if and what the officials were seeing as well.

They are not likely to play their third choice keeper and 2nd choice defenders at that stage, Huth was 1 yellow away from a 1 game ban, hence him not playing.

Hope UEFA dont take any action for them fielding a weakened team

It just needed man management skills, which all the top managers claim to have!

Thanks, it is nice that my actual working out of a situation was not entirely worthless after all!

I'm afraid it was

Correct.

So where is left? France? PSG already have a fair few top level strikers so are not in any rush in that department, as do Lyon and Marseille, and even Monaco do (even discounting Falcao from their squad of players).
So I think that country can be ruled out.

I didn't go back that far in your posting history. Just remembered that you ruled out pretty much every single western country and did a quick search. If I decided to go back through your posting history it would have taken me about 57 years to find it.

Should also point out that technically this is his second move since that post and the first one was on loan to the very first club you ruled out.

Fair cop, no worries, some I get right and some I get wrong!
