I think it's safe to say that he takes the 'sense' out of the 'sensi'

So Benjani will be an ideal signning since we already lost Phil Jagielka & no chance of Morton Gamst Pederson coming

I still cant believe we lost Jagielka!





The best Everton players are Lescott and Arteta, both of them could move to the top level. As Moyes said, Arteta is now a mix of Spanish technique and English aggression, its a strange mix but it works, it worked for Gattuso as he came back from Scotland with a barbarian attitude to add to his Italian tactical awareness

Lescott is a very solid defender with no obvious weakness, he had problems with knee injuries early in his career which is the only reason he hasnt had international honours (the local rumour was always that he was actually kneecapped after messing with the wrong girl! )

MGP is strongly linked with Arsenal too but Milan could bully them if they really wanted him, he is good no doubt but tactically not a great fit for Milan anyway.

Of course you do know that there is no title race in the second round of play right?

Now if you continue posting this sort of drivel, I will refuse any more money from you sirrah!

Yes you're totally right, i was saying he was rubbish because of that and not because of his brilliant strike rate of 9 in 49 games Dont you think if he was even half decent Portsmouth would have put their faith in him instead of buying 2 more strikers this summer???

As for Saha, he outscored Benjani last year even though he spent most of the year with the physio! he is 10 times then player Benjani is and IF he can maintain his fitness he will easily outscore him yet again.

uh-oh, Sampdoria are winning. Poor Tony

Zeekay should be on tv. I'd pay to listen to him commentate/analyse matches

I doubt Tony wouldnt bet on Samp to win though Jim....he is too muh of a pundit to make that mistake...betting wise that is! (Poor soul already made a mistake in supporting Juve, but we wont hold that against him )

Imagine him sitting next to Andy Gray on Sky sports or Gary Lineker on Match of the day. What would be even more comical would be when Andy is talking about a team and using his pen which he uses ti mark the screen Zeekay should snatch the pen and say "Im the pundit, this is how it should of been done"

Is there any more news on our transfers, I was reading the Pato interview and he mentioned carlos eduardo who plays for gremio (We were linked with him some time ago), however I doubt he has a eu passport so we could cross him off the list or just buy him and loan him out.

It's been an awful month for me betting wise. I lost close to 4 digit number (in euro). If someone watched Rabotnicki-Zrinjski in UEFA Cup today he will know how unlucky i am lately. Hosts were missing open goal at least 4 times.

Of course i took a bet on Hajduk-Sampdoria, and i won it ( i had a bet that no more than 2 goals will be scored)
And i'm not angry or anything. I was nervous before the match but not during or after it. Croat vs Italian team were playing. I didn't have high expectations anyway and i was only hoping for a surprise.
Those who support minor teams know what am i talking about. It's not so hard for Reggina supporter when his team will lose from Milan or Juve.

Tony where do u bet ...if u dont mind telling me

If you live in USA you won't be able to bet at the bookies i use. You have some restriction there and you can only bet here :
http://www.thegreek.com/

I have accounts in many bookies (I use www.sportingbet.com and www.gamebookers.com when i play more than 1 match on a ticket but when i play singles with bigger money then i use www.Pinnaclesports.com because they offer only singles and they are the most reliable)
Here we also have many local bookies (probably around 10 different bookies) and sometimes i bet there.
Btw, Milan's sponsors www.Bwin.com are in the black list of every serious betting man. They limit your stakes if you start winning (they don't let me put more than 8 euro on a ticket) and you have to wait an eternity until they transfer the money to your credit card.

But like i said, people in the USA can not bet online, except in this bookie i gave you and few more not reliable bookies.

Every bookie, Bwin also, offers 3 kinds of odds - Decimal, Fractional and American.
You have an option to pick the option you want.

Decimal are these kind of odds - 2.35
Fractional are - 2/1
American are +200

I use decimals.

This is how you change them :
Go to www.sportingbet.com
Pick Football on the left side
Now you see a lot of matches. Click on one of them
When you'll click on the match you'll see an arrow at the middle/right side at the top where you can change the odds option.
