Easy. Fifty Shades of Grey. For both.

This is an outrage! Something needs to be done about this NOW!!!

I quite enjoyed it. I liked the synth-rock genre vibe. Very 80s.

Yeah, owners and chairmen only (I'd make an exception for Les Reed too).

For years we get told that our players won't picked the England as they only pick from the Top 7 teams. We finally make it as a Top 7 team and then they go and change the rules to freeze us out again and say they're only going to pick players from the bottom half of the Premier League!!! Is there anything these c*nts won't do to unsettle us and try and disrupt our progress?!?!?!! :x:x http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/33619190

How many times have we heard that before?

I'm not sure if you are trolling me or if you believe what you are saying. Your logic says nothing about the importance or otherwise of scoring goals, only the pretty obvious point that you can only escape relegation by scoring at least one goal in a season (is it really worth posting that?).

Terrible logic, it doesn't suggest that at all. It suggests that if you want to get more than 38 points (borderline relegation), then you need to score goals. In fact all your numbers say is "don't not score goals"!

It's about substitutability. Defending may be very important, but it's not that hard and plenty of people could do a decent job. To get a striker who can conjure a goal out of nothing is very rare indeed and so they are worth much more. You could also think of it as a goal being a "negative clean sheet". If it is very valuable to the opposition to have a clean sheet, the best thing you can do it to prevent them from having one...by scoring a goal! Your point only really covers the second, third, fourth goals in a game. It is very very important to score a goal if you wish to win. (I can't make that point strongly enough, it really is)

Don't backtrack now, you'll ruin your carefully built reputation. Never back down, Sarnia. Just have confidence and be true to yourself.

You didn't realise he was qualified to make that assessment? Fair play to you for owning up to that! Credit to you where it's due, I didn't think you had it in you to come out and admit you were wrong.

Pirlo is the highest earner in the MLS on £5.2m per year. Those figures must be distorted, prob due to the half-season (not sure why). http://m.bbc.com/sport/football/33535637 I'm looking forward to seeing them both make their debuts at Yankee Stadium this Sunday!

We've signed Virgil Van Dijk?! Great news! Thanks for the info Aziz Yebda! Gonna tell everyone I know, great to have a bit of news before officially announced on the OS. My Twitter's gonna blow up!

The fact that some will overperform is not contrary to the fact that some will underperform. On the contrary, the two are complementary.

That's not a contrary position. I bet they don't get 36 goals between them.

Isn't the point that someone will underperform compared to expectations. You don't know at this point who they will be, but almost 100% guaranteed someone will. I bet you Mane, Pelle and J-Rod don't all score 12+ goals next season.

Kevin Davies version 1.

What's your point - that this guy has a very good scoring ratio in every league he's played in?

Celtic or Saints?

Given the internet and the number of stattos keeping track of everything that happens all the time I doubt the number of games he plays will ever be unknown, so we should be safe from ever paying that. Good business to insert that clause!

Ummm...not sure what to say to this. So - "First!"

I'm in bits over this one.

I like how after we "changed course" we went from being an 8th placed Premier League team to a 7th placed Premier League team. More of that course please!!

Actually the malware came from the illegal porn you were watching, the SkySports site just triggered it.
