well you can't really compare Bolton, Sunderland with wigan. Bolton and Sunderland are way better teams. See the impact welbeck had with Sunderland as compared to diouf with Blackburn(a relegation threatened team like wigan).
Well macheda is currently at a stage when nothing can be said about him. He needs time, good coaching at this stage of his career to really become top player. His great debut cameos have risen the expectation from him. Plus he hasn't got many opportunities to showcase his talent being 4th striker and played in PL rarely
parthu my frend..!! Wigan plays gud football with Rodallega ,N' Zogbia, James McCarthy Co..!! its just they have a very weak defence except Al Habsi as their GK..!! See any of Everton's game they play horrible kicking football and dnt builds up well from open play where as Wigan does..!! Blackburn also plays a lot like that kicking football and Diouf either doesnt start there or is wasted out of position in reality..
for example take Blackpool they play gud build up football from open play , set pieces , corners n free kicks but they still ended up being relegated so its nt like dat my frend..!! It was again horrible defence that did to them..!!
how did cleverley fair last night against Spain u21. ????
I couldn't see the match, only know that he played for 81 minutes at right.
He played well but was short on service from Henderson..!! 1 very intersting thing was his intent to be in the box when England charged on Spain's goal..!! He looked good whenever he had the ball..!! he doesnt holds up ball much long unlike Spainsh way of playing..!!
Henderson and Mancienne were aweful to be honest last nite..!! though Henderson was running all over the pitch with energy like Fletcher..!! I would have played Rodwell over Mancienne and made Jones the captain dnt knw why n hw Pearce made Mancienne the captain..!!
Scott Sinclair was brought in for him at 81st min..!! i would have liked to see Marc Albrighton come in when Cleverley was subs..!!
Hi,can anyone tell me,which channel is forecasting the EURO U-21 live in India???
No channel is showing it in India..Watch it online thru live streaming using Sopcast , Vettle or other live streaming sites or links..!!
I have got an info for u guyzz..!!
Man Utd have made a 6.5 M bid for Pato Rodriguez from Independiente... and it has been accepted..!!
He is a 20 yr old who plays as in CAM role and looks like a rough diamond more like Ronaldo was when quite young..!! Wait i m nt comparing him..!! just telling his attributes as per the videos i have watchd luks similar to CR7 when he was 18..!!
Nothing new we all knew Arsenal were in for him..!! as expected it must help Gunners fans in quenching a bit of their thirst for new summer signings..! at 10-12 M worth a risk and gamble..!! Though he looks gud at Lille..!!
as far as my picks for Arsenal signing this summer
Gervinho , Samba , Baines/Enrique/Izzaguirre(Clichy's replacement) and 1 Fabregas replacement if he goes..!! maybe Arteta..?? Just a wild guess
Wenger is a fan of him plus he plays out of his best position at Everton many times plus last yr when Fabregas was rumoured to leave for Barca Arteta was lined up as replacement in lots of rumours..!!
So Gervinho , Samba/Cahill , Baines/Enrique/Izzaguirre and Fabregas replacement..!!

Will it be good enuf for next season ?? thats the ques for Arsenal fans i wanna ask..!!
Plzz reply honestly and sportingly than just blasting me..!!
Gervinho is not someone whom I am having high hopes on. He was very good in one Ivory Coast's game and mediocre in other. Nevertheless, better than Bendtner in skills,first touch and pace lacks in height a bit. But he'll be leaving us in ACN. Out should be Rosicky,Denilson,Clichy,Eboue. Squillaci is decent 5th choice defender but in Arsenal's setup squad players end up playing more game than regular players. If deadly combo of Diaby and Denilson leaves,I'll be more than happy and Gaffer will go for a backup DM who can give some competition to Song. Song is decent at best. His tackling is poor and he surges forward many a times and gives too much space for counter attack from middle. Matuidi would be decent signing in this regard,Toulalan,Lass will be ideal . I don't want Parker at Arsenal cos. of his habit of going forward. For central defense, Sakho/Cahill will be decent along with Verma/Djourou. Scott Dann will also be decent but not Roger Johnson cos. we already have attacking CB in Vermalean so we need a leader at back. For LB, we dont have much option but I seriously want Clichy to ply trade somewhere else cause he had made us vulnerable from left and his momentary lapse of concentration has costed us many points. If Fab leaves, I want either Mascherano or Thiago Alcantara in deal.
Bendtner has got to leave and if his daddy's (also his agent) claims of him fetching at least 13 million are true then Arsene Wenger should be arrested for daylight robbery ! Gervinho is a good prospect. At Lille his performance has been brilliant. Defense is our major issue and prospects of samba and cahill look great. although, you've got to be up on your feet to fetch these players. I'm impressed by ferguson's quick acquisitions at united. The most important part of the process is keeping our midlfield intact. give nasri and fab more money. Really can't afford to lose them !

I quoted Baines/Enrique/Izzaguire for LB spot in place of Clichy Yann M'Villa would be perfect for DM or Sissokho
Felipe Melo for DM..?? AW is a big time admirer and tried to go for him in past..!! Juventus are already a struggling side
Cahill/Samba will be gud enuf bcz Sakho is gonna cost more than Cahill around 20 M
P.S. u r right Clichy leaving is a blessing in disguise for Arsenal as he was caught out of position many times more like Evra..!!
Did anyone watchd Xedirin Shaquiri play for Swiss U21 team..?
At 19 yrs of age on LW position he is as gud as Hazard is..!! He is a top talent i heard but watchd it last nite..!! At 10 M could be a great bargain for future..!!
Fergie sign him up he can be the ultimate Giggs replacement on LW..!!
If you ask my for three players who could take us from Title challengers to Title Winners I'd say Samba, Parker and a winger(hazard, young or maybe gervinho). First two players will come in just under 20m, and third will cost 10m-30m. By selling Denilson, Bendtner, eboue, squallaci we could make around 20m (3-4 + 12 + 4-5 + 1-2). Among hazard, young and gervinho, it is almost certain gervinho is coming. Hazard was too expensive and lille were not going to sell him. Young is ManU bound. I dont know much about Gervinho, but heard he was star player for lille last season when they won won title in france and in some matches he out-shined hazard too. Thus with a net spend of 10m we could enormously improve our team.

Wat about Clichys replacement..!! Baines wud be my take as AW is a keen admirer and fan of him but i guess he mite be priced out of a move by Moyes n Co at Everton..!!

Actually i have assumed, Clichy will sign new contract. Which i guess is very likely. When arshavin is playing in front of him, he gets exposed a lot often as Arshavin dont track back. But when he plays behind Nasri he is a top player.
What You think about Rafael Varane. He was to chose from ManU or Arsenal. But now as ManU have signed another Young CB, i guess only arsenal is in the running. Apparently he is very highly rated in FM11 and is in my team too :D.
Hey, any idea about Sylvian Marveaux and Connor Wickham as player.. I mean how would you rate them ?? I haven't seen them play anytime but have heard a lot about them... Even Izaguirre... Your takes please...

Izaguirre has looked the best player in SPL as far as i have seen at times on Ten channel SPL..!! but the level diff bw SPL and EPL is massive..!!
You forget about another young CB by the name "Smalling". i guess he was the one who would replace Ferdinand.
Yaar i m nt certain Jones will play as a CB..!! I think he will play ahead of Smalling- Varane if Varane is signed.. He may or may not in future..!! Remember we had Evans and Pique and then we decided to sell 1 of them.!!
If u see here buying Jones would makes sense now if we get Sneijder..!! bcz since Sneijder plays more attacking playmakers role dsnt defend too much Jones mite play in this formation a lot.. This will be the formation in most European games i believe
Sanchez is the one they want but he isnt a priority..!! it was getting Nani 1st.. When we enquired abt Sneijder they said he is available in a deal only if it involves Nani in exchange..!! 10 M+ Nani was the quote to be honest..!!
I only expect Man Ut to sign Sanchez if Nani is on his way out..!!
P.S. Sneijder will go for max 30-35 M.. his 150 K a week wages are a bit of an issue.. no way in the world he will go for 40 M..Stop comparing British player transfer fees with Other players bcz u will never understand it bcz theres no footballing logic in it..!! Its a hype dey get for being English in an English league
P.S. 1 more ques for Gunners fans..!! for DM position De Rossi or Scott Parker or Felipe Melo..?
If you ask me the best BtoB midfielder at present,I will say It has to be De Rossi,Alonso,Sahin and Busquets(leave diving part). Sahin has been excellent .Rossi is far better than Parker ever was. Melo has brain of child, you never know all of sudden he'll make rash tackle and end up getting red card. We desperately need leader so no Melo for me. Jones would have been perfect signing for us but you guys stole him. :P Clichy can go. Even with Nasri,rosicky on left flank he has been pathetic.
What about Sanchez's rumour? It's everywhere on twitter that you guys have signed him. He is a excellent player but with Young,Nani,Valencia,Park where will he adjust. Also in 4-4-2, I don't see him playing anywhere except wing considering Rooney and Chicarito play upfront.

Sanchez is only expected to come if Nani leaves..Dnt forget we havent signed Young yet..!! its a bit of a strange situation with him.!! he cancelled his wedding and honeymoon and hasnt yet even signed on the dotted line maybe he is a back up to Sanchez option for Man Utd
War for Sanchez and Modric has been declared..
Sanchez Most pple asked me hw can Barca afford Fabregas and Sanchez with 40 M Budget..!! well if u ask me their Sporting Director said 40 M plus sales that means 24 M from Zlatan sale to AC Milan to.. they will spend 30 M on Sanchez and play him in front 3 on rotation with Pedro and Villa..!! forget not Villa isnt getting young..!! and they will rotate Fabregas in the middlle 3 with Xavi and Iniesta
30 M for Sanchez and 34 M+ Bojan or Thiago Alcantara for Fabregas will clinch both of them..!!
Barca are gonna get stronger and stronger with that..!! I eny them for getting players just bcz they are a better team..!!
Modric
Chelsea draw 1st blood with a 22 M bid..!! they will come back and Man Utd will come too but if the player does not hold any pref and its a bidding war i can see only 1 Winner and thats Chelsea..!!
Rem Man Utd have Carrick or Berbatov to offer to HR in a Modric deal so it will be a drawn out affair till the end of August..!! even Modric has admitted it to go on till late..!!
P.S. Fergie its a challenge but we r not retiring from our Work untill we have got Barca down..!! thats my aim for u..!! hit them once and then bow out of the game..!!
I dont think there is any chance Sanchez is coming to ManU, though its his favorite club, but his favorable destination is Barcelona. And other way round, if player decides to come to PL, i guess Man City would outbid everyone. Young has not been signed yet coz Aston villa wants to appoint manager before any transfer activity.
