August 7, 201410 yr An intriguing gamble from Sunderland, an absolute no brainer for the player. I suppose Gus' frustration at being shunned by a few cowboy agents has forced his hand to an extent though I can't even trot out the usual "if he stays fit and gets the playing time he needs then he's a helluva player" line because quite honestly I can't remember much about JR.Truth be told, I've read a lot more about Rodwell than I can ever remember seeing. I suppose the hope is that he mirrors Tom Huddlestone at Hull last season, with a new start at a smaller club bringing about more consistent performances. If he cleans out Jack 'I've always been a Newcastle fan' Colback in this season's Tyne-Wear derby midfield scrum, he'll have paid for his transfer free numerous times over. Who knows, with a couple more decent additions our holy grail (10th place) could be within reach after all.
August 9, 201410 yr No doubt Liverpool fans will be crestfallen that Aly Cissokho has ended up at Villa! Gauntlet, taken!
August 10, 201410 yr Well done The Arsenal. Maybe I should put giroud in my dream team instead of costa

August 12, 201410 yr UEFA Super Cup Reals line up looks like something out of Fantasy Football or Football Manager. Insane. HALA MADRID
August 13, 201410 yr Real Madrid won !!! Hala Madrid !!! Great game. Real Madrid will be a force to reckon with this year. That was the 1st of a possible 6 trophies this year. I will miss Bale from our team forever. COYS.
August 14, 201410 yr It was nice that both Kroos and Rodriguez got to experience their first match in a winning final There was a funny video where when Ronaldo, Pepe and Modric were like fist pumping and jumped in shock because a confetti cannon went off And I hope they smash Barca when they come across them. I can't handle some Barca fans ATM.
August 14, 201410 yr ^ How will Ronaldo's beau Marcelo feel? And I found the video that cracked me up
August 15, 201410 yr Say whatever you want about Tony Pulis, but... I'm sorry, I can't think of an ending to that sentence.
August 15, 201410 yr Pulis' sudden, improbable rise in stock presumably took his special brand of madness into DEFCON 1 territory. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the fall out came from him ordering the training cones to wear baseball caps and glasses or insisting that the youth team be renamed Pulis Academy.
August 15, 201410 yr Hahahaha. Football has gone crazy. Players biting people to get what they want, managers leaving because they don't get what they want, Owners firing managers coz they don't do what they want. Its only gonna get worse I reckon. Soon kit men will start demanding a say in the design of the kits!
August 15, 201410 yr Congratulations on your Fantasy team name, Fred. Absolutely sensational! Thanks, would love to say its one of my own making but t'isn't. Nothing but admiration for the chap who put this together.
August 15, 201410 yr Presumably the words "Crooksy, I'll level with ya, there's one flaw that'll stop us winning the Prem this season and here it is, on a plate for you, scoop of the year..." did not actually fall out of Pellegrini's mouth but hot dang I'll be watching just to make sure anyway!
August 15, 201410 yr The lovable charm of Juan Pablo Angel, the fiery tenacity of Des Bremner! Welcome, Carlos Sanchez!
