My freaking computer must be knackered cos I cannot see the smiling or winking symbols in the first few posts. All of a sudden hleb is the world-class player akin to george "the alco" best and its a huge freaking travesty that he will never play in a world cup finals ? Do me a favour lads and have a chat with yourselves Hleb has played better this season I agree but he is nowhere near the level that ye are bigging him up to be and there are no doubt thousands of better players that never played in world cup finals. The fact that he could get into the england team says more about their team than it does hleb
Seeing as one of you mentioned nationalised brits like lennox lewis I thought you would also like to remember terry butcher(born in singapore), johnny barnes(a jamican maan) and tony dorigo(an aussie) to mention just 3. The irony of all the digs in the english media about the eligibility of some of jack charltons recruits made me laugh and the old "people in glasshouses" saying sprang to mind.
Anyway is there any chance the spurts loving matty taylor can please fuck off and join spurts in jan so that aa1886 can finally put his "dream" to bed

Shouldn't put aa1886, matty taylor, dream and bed in the same sentence.
And augie, just for you
And point taken regarding nationlised brits. I don't know but I imagine that Butcher and Barnes were brought up in England for a significant part of their childhood therefore they probably actually feel English/British, and are embedded in the culture. The same, again I can't say for certain, cannot be said for some of those players picked for Eire. (Macateer springs to mind).

Anyone for Steven Taylor fro Newcastle...?
You floozie! Just ditch him without a thought.
As Dolly Parton said - "Stand by your man"!
I thought under Arsene he would become a world beater but it dosen't appear thats going to happen. I hope he don't go Sp*ds tho 'coz i still like him.
BTW i don't have a thing for the name Taylor I was thinking of a young CB who might be avalible in january that we could get
Thats good enough..??
What can i say another outstanding performence fromt the belarusian and scored on what is 100 apperence landmark for the club he is having a fantastic run in the first team.
What a performance by Hleb, my man of the match, if it is possible to only have one. What a performance he had tonight, he tortured before Slavia with his passing, dribbling and yes, even his shooting.
