Mancs already 1-0 up thanks to Christina. Vinjay will be pleased!!

The 'Bio-metrics' of his body are what cause the problem - some add weight much easier than others. Dont worry it will get sorted. Either he will get fit or get shipped out in summer - simple really. Dont forget he was scoring the key goals when Sam 1st came in and then got dropped. He is still also our top goalscorer.

He needs match fitness - hence why he plays tonight. He didnt play at weekend for purely tactical reasons if you go off sams comments about his strengths didnt suit our style that day. By the time it got to half time - it was game over, so no point risking him in that game. I think he may also be trying out the Carlos/ Benni link up too.

Agree with Eddie - Id be very suprised if Porto were to dump United out in the next game. United/ Barca look favourites still.

Messi is on fire - world player of the year this time, no doubt.

Rooney grew up a blue-nose therefore its only natural that he hates liverpool. Thats normal, like the others say, its rivalry! I do agree he needs to control his temper more, however he doesnt want to take that out of his game - its what makes him such an exciting player to watch.

Fair play to him if he feels pain. It can only be for our good that he doesnt go

Dont tend to have to travel far to be honest mate. Lots of good restaurants near by. Live over in Horwich so there are a few over that way (China Blue, Inka, San Marino etc) and then im from Darwen where there are a good couple of Indians and Italians, and then there is blackburn's too. Tris the last 2 saturdays we have been past and both times shut. So i assume its gone!

Think Marco Pollo in darwen has shut down already...

Ha ha how gutted would you be after the excitement and thinking you had half a mill.

Poor draw - the expected Chelsea v Liverpool tie. The 2 potential teams that could stop english teams (Barca & Bayern) drawn together so thats 1 less risk out of the way. City got Hamburg in the UEFA cup, that could be an interesting tie.

Watched the Escapist last night - quite a good prison film.

All 4 English teams through - Arsenal scrapped through on penalties. Id say United or Barca look favourites for it this year. Would love to see a United v Liverpool QF

Stick some cash on Fergie's horse that is running today.

And not only is he a tosspot - THIS IS HIS!!!

Went to Latino lounge this weekend - very good as usual.

Anyone seen Tom Clancys Hawx? Iv downloaded the demo and I really like it. Always thought there was room for a good fighter plan game out there and this looks like being the one. The Citys had to be that accurate that the game makers got NASA to do it for them.

Socom isnt out yet. I was originally waiting for that one until the reviews were putting me off.

Is Killzone a war one or alien style shooter? And is Fear the same?? Not into Street Fighter - too repetitive. Whats Noby Noby & Flower about?

I think there is a serious lack of new games so far this year. Im into war, sports games and there just seems like nothing new that is decent. Im not into games like Res evil or any shooter type which you are blasting Aliens to bits. Is there no decent games coming out soon?

Went to a restaurant up the mountains in Kirchdorf in Austria last night. Ski slope finishes at the end of the restaurant, more or less at the front door. Excellent food, open wood fire and excellent beer!! I can get you directions if anyone needs it!

Any new good films out there anyone has seen lately??

Yeah thats the one. Not sure why they have said that. I know of 8 people who have seen it, all rate it as the best film for ages. Think i might go see that 3d film this week when it comes out. Also watched Will Smiths 7 pounds, its ok, nowhere near as good as his past films.

The day the earth stood still is poor. Will smiths film I have, but still havent watched it yet. Watched a great film last week - "Taken" Probably the best film I have seen for a long, long time. Good story and kept us all hooked. . . . All the 3 above are available for download if anyone wants them - PM me if you like and your not sure how.

I agree with T4E. £20m is too much to turn down for Roque and Benni is the better of the two players when on form. He makes things happen on his own and he usually puts away his chances. £20m could buy us another striker and maybe 2 quality midfield players (Right & Centre). Lets not forget we have Big Sam the bargain hunter at the helm now - Not League 2 Ince.
