Cool it on the dealing. We still need your DP slot for McBride.
Heh. I'm sure that'll still be available. This has the makings of a "one slightly above average player" for "two slightly below average players" kind of trade. Preston Burpo might be involved, but I'm not sure who in the West needs a keeper. Maybe ship him back to Chivas if El Guzano is leaving? Dallas has a lot of spare parts, but I don't think they'd be dealing on the day they fire their manager.

you're including players of the last 15 years in your list.

Might as well include Keown, Adams etc. in mine then. Which kind of makes your "what have they won" point slightly moot.

I was basically talking about real youth players, not bought in at the end of their teens (Rooney, Ronaldo, Anderson, Nani etc.) and that made it through to the first team recently, not 15 years ago. To be fair I should remove Denilson from my list.

But I could even have included players like Adebayor, Van Persie, Toure, Diaby if we take your standards.

and you would be right to include them I reckon.

They are young recruits who have been successful in the first team, they would certainly look better than someone who hasn't really made a telling contribution yet.

I only included Beckham etc because you included Scholes...and if you're going to include Scholes you need to include others of his generation who "made it" - cos thats what the debate was.

this all started off because some 15 yr old French kid suggested Man Utd was the better career path than Arsenal and if you look at the trophy count of the two clubs and the youngsters listed - Man Utd graduates come out on top.

and something I find really odd, but for all the acclaim your academy or reserves get, what have they won in recent years? I cant think of anything whereas Utd win loads.

I like the Imogen Thomas sex vid, it amuses me that the guy pulls out so as not to knock her up, but shoves it back in before he's finished.

It's all I'm really looking for from porn, a bit of comedy.

I thought you were converted to Arsenalism this season :D
 
Lakitu said:
It's all had's fault, him and his sinful ways. Combined with Arsenal's cavalier football.

haha. I like where this is going. Finally, some praise for Arsenal from an outsider. I'll return the favor:

Fernando Torres is a handsome man and one of the greatest strikers in the world.
