Brilliant.

Wonder if pools may consider slipping in a cheeky bid for him during the summer.

:laugh:

I think the kid could make it.

He may have a bright future ahead.

Yes yes, but how many times is Andy Gray going to refer to him as 'that little man'?

What a fookin arsehole rage

Messi is the player Matty Robson could have been if he'd been given more of a chance.

If it wasn't for all of those nasty mouths on the Millhouse terrace he would have been.

And Messi would have been known as copycat Matty

Gray is a first class W***** in my opinion. At one stage a Barcelona player (Pedro I think) lost the ball then won it back in his own half.

Gray said "Who lost the ball" co commentator, replied "Pedro," "who won it back" said Gray "Pedro" was again the reply. that's an example for any young kids watching chasing back to win the ball.

How times change I can never remember him running back to his own half to win the ball.

Spot on with that observation, young sir.

I think it might have been Chopper.

While we're playing a strange game of foreign footballer bingo, can I be the first to mention Pascal Zuberbühler?

Cheers. :coool:

Im pretty sure Chip has already 'bagged' him too

I remember watching him about five years ago. Infact, it was the season after the European Championships in Portugal. 2004? He ran rings round this Italian team in the Champions League, can't remember who. They played in Black and White though, and it wasn't Juventus.

An incredible player. He makes Ronaldo look piss poor by comparison

MutleyRules · **Posted:** Wed Apr 07, 2010 3:57 pm

Just watched that video....he doesn't score many goals though does he????

Your forecast was spot on fella because that kiddo is class.

Seriously, with your knowledge of the lower leagues and obvious footy acumen, why don't you offer your services as a scout to Pools????
You don't have to spot many good prospects to make it worthwhile.
Worth thinking about.

On a slightly different note, I was talking to a mate in the pub on Saturday and we were saying that a phrase from school that you never hear anymore these days is "bumlicker".
