I always had a soft spot for old Vladimir, to be honest. Maybe it was his long, Czech locks Oh, and while we're on the subject, Zenden is the new Smicer.
Aah, Neil Mellor...my girlfriend is an Arsenal fan. She loved that I made her watch the goal every time she came to see me at uni. Absolutely loved it! It's a miracle I'm not single...
You are a shining example to all men. I salute you.
At the risk of taking this off on a tangent, you mentioned Michael Owen, a player who I am still angry we sold regardless of whatever extenuating circumstances Rafa touted at the time. If you sell a 20+ goal a season striker, you have to replace him. Something we are yet to do. If you could buy any striker in the close season, who would you have and who (not including Robbie Fowler) would you offload?
£8m + Nunez was a ridiculous fee, and certainly not enough to buy a decent replacement. Personally, I'd like to see us buy Miroslav Klose. He probably only has 2 or 3 decent seasons left in him, (which would mean we could get him on the cheap, I hope) but his record clearly shows he is a natural goalscorer, something we desperately need. I'm guessing I can't choose Fowler because Rafa's already chosen to replace him with Voronin. Can I say Cisse? No? Bah. I would say Bellamy, but he has pace, which is a necessary alternative, so I suppose it would have to be Crouchie, even though I am a huge fan of his.
