i dont see the reasoning behind offering him a new contract. He only signed a four year one last year, so had three left. This coupled with his age makes me question giving him another one, whereby he will be 34 by the time he leaves.

Benni is better than Mido, compare their careers. Look at the age of Mido and how many clubs he has played for, how many arguments and incidents he has had. If he had came to us and had a great season, he would immediately want to leave. I understand that Benni is doing this to some degree. But just imagine how Mido would have done it. Mido has had his chances at Spurs, hes been there two seasons now, and done nothing to make me think he is a good player. EDIT: also i shudder at the possibility we could have signed Thomaz Radzinski

Mido last season has got to be up there...

yeah i do actually i actually think Chelsea are not being given much money this season

I laugh at the people on there who would rather have Pennant and the 8 million they actually paid for him was idiocy at the time, sure Brum would have accepted 4 million at least

congratulations to David Im slightly surprised because Beckham was also called up. A result of which has slightly stolen his thunder.

well hes really just covering all his bases, however im certain most of the premierships players are thinking the same thing, but not necessarily saying it.

Theres no chance of getting Bellamy back if you ask me, for the simply reason that it would be too much shame for him to come back

Does anyone else think that Higgins looks like hes have a really difficult time having a poo when taking a shot? Heart attack before hes 40 if you ask me

Its funny how a topic about Benni Mccarthy has turned into "Man U's potential target: Berbatov"

40 million or 18mil plus Saha? cos 18 million and Saha isnt bad for a player of such obvious class and potential

just because he originally said that doesnt mean that if a good offer came in that he would reject it, its happened plenty of times in the past where a manager appears to price players out of the market, then ends up selling them much cheaper anyways im gonna stick a tenner on berbatov to man u and saha to spurs, who knows eh

I have it on good authority that Bertatov to Man U is a done deal, with Saha and 18 million going the other way how do i know? I know a Spurs player and thats all im saying take it or leave it, he cud just be messing with me i guess

well i obviously had fun whilst playing, so its better than nothing

pfff i used to play all the time eventually i got bored and sold my char for 400 quid....whose laughing now

Thats just reminded me how stupid cockney slang is Has anyone watch Tony cottee on skysportsnews when he sayings something along the lines on "oh hes just had a shot and its come back off the beans and toast". idiots.... also: bye niell, have fun getting relagated

welcome back Dunn get fit, and show them what your made of

id recommend getting guitar hero 2 on the playstation2, its gonna simply be amazing and if u havnt played guitar hero 1, do so, you wont be disappointed

its slightly wierd at first playing the game without a playstation pad onlines games are fun, if slightly frustrating if people choose to use their mic my id is stevengraham82 if u wanna add me as a friend on there, but please send a message also that ur from this board and not a random adding me

Liverpool and Newcastle are apprently ready to fight it out for Neill according to the bbc paper gossip page why on earth would Neill possibly go to Newcastle? all they have going for them is decent attendences. I can however understand if he were to leave for Liverpool

he went through but the keeper was already in a good position to save it

They are piling on the pressure now, the crowd is really behind them, we will be lucky to keep it at 1-1 now, sadly

Anyone know who newcastle are playing home and away, and indeed spurs?

how was the goal?

matty holmes at a time when we had won the league and should have been cementing our position, we got him terrible
