We're more likely to end up like Marcellus Wallace (Everton recruitment team) in the dungeon being bummed (agreeing to pay £300k a week) by Z (City's negotiators).
Absolutely love the comparison though, made me chuckle.
He’ll make mistakes sure, but probably less than Keane at CB would but people don’t seem to mind those. I’d rather just throw him in, no better way to get to the required level than by playing. We’ve bought him to play in our first team so no...
To that point, we have to be more fair in our assessments and less absolute and hyperbolic. No one on any team, even the slick 6, play above reproach for 90 minutes. Adam walked on to a big stage and stepped up as a young man and performed. He’s...

So, the match is about to start. I'd like to wish you good luck with the new stadium that opens today.
Not for this friendly of course, but for this season and the others to come. May this new stadium bring you many joys and good days to enjoy...
I saw him at the entrance to Finch Farm screaming at Tarks and Pickford that they were scabs as they were driving in. He reeked of alcopops too. I think there might be more to this. Watch this space.
