Be fair to the lad, English isn't his first language and the interviewer was leading him a bit.

I thik what he was trying to say was that sometimes he goes down and sometimes he doesn't, but he doesn't dive.

Whether you beleive that is a different matter entirely.

You won the Carling Cup. Don't be greedy.

Disgust

. Although fair play to them if they did achieve it (which is still mathematically possible, however unlikely)

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttt in there

But only if combined with Arsenal winning the European Cup. That would be very, very funny.

I'm getting really excited about the World Cup now.

I hope Cole makes it back from injury - I don't know if the fact that he hasn't played recently would be a bonus or not, lack of match practice might be telling.

Also, I wonder which strikers are going to get the nod. Beatie looks like he might make it in at the post.

Sounds like a strange finish in the Spurs game. Tottenham score, but it's disallowed to give them a penalty. The ref would have been lynched if the penalty had been missed!

Ahem... he's playing for Everton, therefore he has no chance (unless all other strikers from Man U, Liverpool, Newcastle, Tottenham... and any other first choice teams go AWOL in the next few months).

No worries. I took it that way anyway. Still peed off that Gerrard was sent off to be honest. As I said earlier, we're always shite against 10 men. If it stayed 11 v 11, I could see us getting something. Next season

Often works that way v 10. Strange. The result was even stranger as I thought it was going to be a really tight affair what with your recent run. Hate derbies. Glad it's over...
