Larscapaldi

A bit short notice I know but I`m in New York the 26th. Will they be showing the Swansea game in there?

I watched the whole game and honestly he didn't impress me at all. His positioning was poor and he got outplayed constantly.

Just went off injured against the Belgians.

Can't wait for him to get these crosses in like he did yesterday when we got Benteke and/or Kozak waiting in the box

Exactly what I've been thinking for a long time now. He's useless when it comes to defending corners, so why not put him a couple of yards off the halfway line. When Guzan catches he can start his run and all Guzan has to do is hoof it.

Linked with Vadis Odjidja in the Belgian papers too. He's big, strong, and got the right attitude to play in the prem, he'd certainly add something to our midfield (but then again, who won't?). In Belgium he's always been considered a huge talent but never stood up to the task, but IMO he'd suit us.

VT meltdown. Helenius scores

Yes got it on. Quite funny actually

yep, can play in both positions, and he's got some footballing ability as well

Obviously you'd know better then me but from what I've seen of him, I wouldn't have thought that he would have a problem adapting to this league. Even Sylla didn't really struggle in this regard and he is infinitely worse than Kouyate. I think our midfield is so shockingly dire (and that point can't be stressed enough) that even Kouyate not at his best would still represent an improvement. He wouldn't be any worse at centre-back than Baker or Herd either. It is just speculation though. How much do you think you guys would sell him for? Because I'd assume he is a bit out of our price-range and will most likely receive offers from better clubs anyway. If we are looking for a player in that mould, I think Mbodj is more realistic. Well it's hard to tell how much Anderlecht would sell for. The've said they will do anything to keep him in Brussels until the summer, so the bid will have to be high enough for them to consider selling him, I'd say around £6-7M. There has been an offer from Wolfsburg already but Kouyate himself has expressed his desire to play in the prem so I think if we put in a bid high enough he might come to us

Yes, but at the moment we desperately need a midfielder (or two) who can cope with the pace of the prem and doesn`t need time to fit in

Not coming to Belgium then?

Being from Belgium, and Anderlecht fan as well, I really wouldn`t recommend Kouyate. He`s got the talent, but can go awol during games so not what we need right now. Good prospect but not someone to drop in to this team

Lol Kevin Prince Boateng, Ghana international played for Portsmouth, ac milan now at schalke Wasn't him I was thinking but he would do a good job Kioyatake? No think he was Belgium with African descent, could play cm or cb, meant to be a big powerhouse Must be Kompany then we should try to get him on a permanent deal as well

My mate is a Hannover fan and I go with him to Germany now and then to watch them. From what I've seen he's pretty good attacking wise but defensively gets caught out of position too often. IMO

What`s the designated away pub for tomorrows game? Been there 2 years ago but can`t remember where it was.

First he's lying on the floor with tears in his eyes cause he's hurt his ankle, an 10 seconds later he's sprinting towards the goal. Yes what a great player he is :s ( *cough*rocket polisher*cough* )

Colombia still was the better team overall though

In other news, Bouma has officially retired from professional football http://www.ad.nl/ad/nl/1433/PSV/article/detail/3545672/2013/11/15/PSV-icoon-Wilfred-Bouma-stopt-met-profvoetbal.dhtml'> Article in Dutch http://www.ad.nl/ad/nl/1433/PSV/article/detail/3545672/2013/11/15/PSV-icoon-Wilfred-Bouma-stopt-met-profvoetbal.dhtml

Is Villa located in P1-2-3? Just registered on the fulham website and I'm able to get tickets in these areas???

Look at getting into the 'neutral' section Cheers I didn't know they had a neutral section. Maybe I'll wait for a little while longer to see if we'll take an extra allocation but if we don't it's a good option to have

was wondering this too. seems the initial allocation has sold out already was hoping to go to this one

Belgium Villa will be there too! it's been long time since I've witnessed a Villa win so hopefully we'll smash them

Well we will be coming over by car so we can go anywhere we want if it really proves to be a hole I'll see if I can spot you there as well Tony any decent away boozers around there that anyone knows of?
