yeh, hope the fans give him a warm welcome, so arsenal liverpool today, thatll be a good match, and chelsea spurs and man united newcastle this is the day for battle champions league spots
Here's a couple of things I feel I should get off my chest. First of all, Milan Baros. He probably has more talent than Craig Bellamy in his little finger (okay, maybe not, but in my opinion he is at least better) but he does virtually nothing except try to draw fouls and miss easy chances. When I've watched MOTD for the past few weeks, Bellamy has actually passed the ball, created space, and even scored a couple. Baros could do with trying to keep off the floor and pass a bit more. Thomas Sorensen: He has had a good season and in my honest opinion he has some of the best reflexes of all the goalkeepers in the Premiership, but his handling leaves a lot to be desired at times. Having said that, it was a great performance on Saturday and if it wasn't for some great saves from Friedel (as well as Reid and Todd) we probably could have won. Even if it hasn't been a great season the fans have to bear in mind that most of our key players are 25 or under and they need all the support they can get.
yeh i agree with the sorensen bit for sure. i wondered (like a few years ago) why he wasnt playing for a bigger team than whoever he played for at the time, then realised he cant actually hold the ball very well.
Hartlepool can go 13th if they win tonight. this is one of our games in hand and we'll only have the one after tonight.... 13th is definatley better than 20th (what we were placed at). but that only shows how close the bottom of the league is. technically we can still aim for a play off place. although is a big ask :\ we have Adam Boyd and Joel Porter coming back into the team as well as players like Thomas Bulter and Tony Sweeny. so the team will only be boosted by that
Somehow till this day, i still cant imagine Myhre playing in any first team...no offence to him... EDIT: on other issues, i still cant believe boro made it through.....oh so tough boro....hard to predict....stupid 10 quid....
Has anybody heard of the Chinese guy who used the Belgian Jupiler League to bet on ? people in China already knew who was going to win here, that's just crazy ...
soccer isn't that big in aus we have NRL footy but i play soccer when it's in season but i'd rather touch footy
Dont quote me on this, but im sure i heard in the news a large betting company caught onto scams on the belgian football league after unusual amounts of money were being bet on it, match fixing i prosume anyone else know anything?
Maybe only in the minor leagues where players get paid really little, not surprise if they fell for those setting ups.
