well, they don't seem to be footballers, losing 9-1 at the moment, so quite possibly

I'd be all over Given if I were an EPL manager looking for a keeper.

Dougie Freedman is on form with the signings...
Jonathan Parr (Norwegian International)
Mile Jedinak (Australian international)
Morgan Gould (South African international)
Kagisho Dikgacoi (South African international)
Glen Murray (Ex-Bum bandit & league 1 2nd top scorer last year)
All for under £250k in total! Jonathan Parr rejected moves to Spurs, Leicester, West Ham & QPR and is descibed as "The perfect replacement for John Arne Riise"
We were written off but I feel so long as we keep Ambrose & Clyne we're in for a decent year. When that season ticket drops though the door I might let out a little sex wee

Oh, and we've also got Mexican striker Pedroza Whitham on trial. His stats look crap (21 games 3 goals) but everybody is raving about him at friendlies. 17 days and counting!

You still have to qualify 
True.
Btw...drove past your Etihad ("United") Stadium today. Been before but was on corporate hosp. and pissed on a minibus, so didn't notice, but the surrounding area....how fucking rough!!!!
Not a dig/bait just shocked me.

Yep its a right shithole, hence the regeneration of a huge amount of it funded by Sheikh Mansour but masked under the Etihad banner

We need to get some people off our wage bill before we buy apparently. I think we'll be working hard on that as we definitely need 1 or 2 more players.
I think we'll be trying to move on loads of players:
Jovanovic (close to leaving)
Jones (definitely be trying to get rid after signing Doni)
Aurellio/Insua (need to strengthen LB and also have Robinson coming through)
Degen (no comments needed)
El Zhar (as above)
Poulsen (tricky as he wants to stay, terrible player)
Plus possibly any of:
Cole (possibly not given Clarke's comments this week)
Aquilani or Meireles (be sad to see either one go but even if they get shut of Poulsen can still see one of them going)
Kyrgiakos (need a new 1st choice CB and he should make way although earned an extra years contract on his appearances)
Ngog (unlikely in this window now imo)
Can also see us loaning out a few more players (done about 4 deals already) from any of:
Ecclestone
Pacheco (hopefully not)
Wilson
Shelvey

You pump as much Arab money into the wasteland but it'll still be in Clayton which will always be a dump

Also Luis Suarez is now joint top scorer at Copa America (with Aguero), has the final to try and win the golden boot.
