If we're chasing Carew on for Petrov.

I am however fully expecting 4-4-2 with Collins in for Luke Young and Carew in for Reo-Coker and a 0-0 draw.

[Toronto Villa]

I like the idea of Gabby coming off the bench, plus go with the hot hand in Carew to start. Other than I like that formation.

Put me down for a 2-0 win with Ireland (if he is part of the Milner deal) bagging on his debut.

0-0 for me. We haven't seemed all that incisive in pre-season, especially going forward.

When the **** did we sign Ireland?

All a bit previous for me... all smacks of the Juninho clap trap.

Aye. Not till he's "in the shirt and on the pitch". We have been here before.
