I was quite concerned about the fly :p

And we'll be in the European Super League while you languish in the Europa League under Moyes, getting knocked out in the second round by the third best team in Azerbaijan (if they're even European)
Time to watch Eurovision to find out lol.

Another player under discussion was defender Martin Kelly, who is nearing a return to full fitness after a season ruined by unfortunate injury.

Rodgers added: "It's great for Martin, he's worked very hard. He was outstanding for me in pre-season and obviously started the season in the team.

"He was unfortunate to pick up a really bad injury. He's worked very hard in getting back; he has been outstanding in his application.

"It has been a great boost for him because that was the target - to get back training and working with the group at the end of the season and then hopefully he'll strengthen his knee up over the course of the next number of weeks and he'll be fit and raring to go in pre-season."

I love Martin Kelly.
 
Final thoughts on Ni No Kuni? Its pretty cheap on PSN

@Brenton, apparently Kelly hinted earlier that he and Rodgers have talked about moving him to centreback

It was nicely flighted, but its literally a floated 60 yard long ball straight down the middle, and it nearly resuted in a goal. Ligue 1 is dismal.

How much do you know about Ligue 1? Brest is a shit club, they're at the very bottom of the league and are already sure to go down in L2, no matter what happens tonight. Judging the level of the league based on the performance (or lack thereof) of that club is ridiculous.

Fair enough. The league is still shit though :p

You could tell that was going in when he lined up for it

None of us including Timurid know anything about Ligue1

Don't know, I don't really care about Santana to the shit side. He's obsessed with his dream to play for Brazil next year. He won't make it playing for us and he certainly won't make it playing for a team other than Bayern, Real or Barca. Schlacke probably offered him silly money and he should take it. I like him and he's a decent CB but maybe it's better to make room for a younger, more talented player.
I always liked Santana and I wouldn't have minded him going to Gladbach or whatever last summer because he deserved to play, but going to GE because he thinks he will have more playing time there is pretty ridiculous and I don't see him ever playing for Brazil either.

As for next season, I mostly agree with you although I'd still prefer giving players like Bittencourt a shot instead of buying someone like de Bruyne but I guess those days are gone for now.

Don't listen to Hitcher.

Any league where a player of Giroud's quality can become top scorer can only be a shit league. Sorry.

Rather take a massive loss than put up with him being sulky for a year and not play him.

Like I've said before, I think Fulham or Stoke would go for him.
 
They should have sold him last year that's for sure. He's been quite disappointing, very inconsistent to say the least.

Cheers. He's well on the way to being a Rodgers signing then :p


What is wrong with people on gaming side?

Now is the perfect time to buy the WiiU, some decent games are coming out in 6 months' time

That line of thinking doesn't make sense on any level

Yeah, the gaming side is currently facing an all-time low. All types of stupid being posted. The number of alternate universe threads being created is just baffling.
