There is no British representatives in the Olympic football tournament, because of the structure of the FAs.

Plus, Craig Moore wanting to play in the Olympics is a joke. The tournament should be kept to youth players only. Professional, full international footballers should not be allowed to take part.

Paul Scholes has retired from international football at just 29. Must be some injury we don't know about or something cause I can't see why he'd do this otherwise. Thats England's best midfielder gone anyway ( and before anyone starts he is their best midfielder, Gerrard will be better but isn't yet. )

He has had a few operations over the past couple of seasons. Maybe he is sick of the pissing and moaning that comes with his England performances.

Wow, I am shocked. Perhaps he wanted to go out at the top, quit whilst he was ahead, before Super Franky Lampard replaced him permanently.

I don't remember there being a British team at all in the Sydney olympics, though Ireland did participate.

Real Madrid have agreed a £23m deal for Patrick Vieira according to Skysports :eek:

Well, i believe it this time, only because of what Sky Sports just said, the radio station has a stake in Real Madrid, and they were the ones who announced the Beckham transfer, doesnt mean he is going, just means Arsenal and Madrid have agreed a fee.

Who gives a shit who sven fucks.

Newcastle really got me excited after Rangers then let me down with "Sporting club of Portugal" (anyone know why they don't like being called Sporting Lisbon!?)

Say it ain't so, Paddy :'(

a) Football = Soccer, because it's the only game where you use your FEET to hit the BALL
b) Fuck off

what

holy shit, goalkeepers use their hands, we'll call it handball instead. you turd

Cheers for clearing my question up ECG.

:|

Fuck off.

We might be signing Joachim Bjorklund.

I dunno if he's any good anymore, but jesus christ, another Sunderland reject? :|

Vieira has allegedly put his house up for sale for £5.5 Million

Youth players are still professional. All Olympic sports allow professionals now because that's where the crop of the talent is.

Speaking of footballers houses, I worked in Seba Veron's pad in London today. The front of his house can be classed as a car lot. 8 cars in the driveway!

I bet it was you that broke in with a macchette a few months back, you crazy bastard.

Youth players who haven't played full internationals for their countries.

Football should be at the Olympics, but not in the current form. Football has its own competitions which matter more to the people involved, and that should be respected.

It's set up how it is so that it doesn't compromise the integrity of the World Cup or something, isn't it?

You can judge how good he is by this. We gave hima free transfer when we got relegated, he's still here. I think you are the first team to show a slight interest. His best days are behind him, a first division player at best.

So Just when I thought that Chelsea couldn't piss me off anymore
 

We let Mutu go on loan to Juve. :|

three of our most expensive four signings from last season are now loaned out after a season, and the other signing (Duff) has someone else just brought in to replace him. What the fuck is up with that.

Gudjohnsen was my least favourite Chelsea striker, and he's the one we kept, he is pure shit and he has an aweful workrate, won't even challenge for headers. :wtf:.

Did Juventus pick up his make up bills?

I doubt it, Chelsea will be funding 100% of his wages (Porbably) so I guess we pay for all his other expenses.

I'm thinking Robben will play on the right if they're both fit, but it's a good move anyway, considering Duff's injury problems last year.

Bit surprised Mutu has been let out on loan, considering Mourinho was talking about 2 players for each position. Heard they had a bit of a bust up on that American tour though, so i can't blame Mourinho for kinda making an example of him.

You'll hear alot of things, Mutu, Duff and Cole have all been rumoured to have said pretty much the same thing in the last month, but Cole and Duff are still there, it's bollocks.

Duff's injury problems are indeed a bitch, but I think we should have just kept Zenden, and played him when Duff was injured, and play Joe Cole out on the right wing.

Hey Dazz, have you seen the news aboot Kezman?

:'(

Having said that, I don't think he'll be a regular (I damn well hope not anyway)...I'm thinking it's more a case of Jo Lescott hasn't played for a year, so we absolutely have to have cover for him, cause he's probably not going to make it through the whole season without at least one rest period.

What the three match ban? It hasn't gone through yet because we appealed against it.

Please tell me there is no other news.

Pompey have signed Aliou Cisse from Birmingham but the Carrick move has stalled after Arsenal's interest, either way he's not in West Hams squad for tomorrow :cool:

Other that him being queer?

He's gotta wife and kids mate, more then you.

<font color=white>Now I'm a United fan and all but what the FU</>CK is going on with Diego Forlan's hair?

Whilst we're on the Kezman subject, I think he may just grab the golden boot this season</font>

I could buy them if I played for Chelsea too.

Kezman would probably beat you in a fight, Rob. He's a reasonably big fella and, more importantly, he's a Serb.

<font color=white>And did you see the way he flew at Dacourt?</font>
