I agree.

Nasri, Benteke, Albrighton. Piece of piss signing them.

RDM wants them "as a three" after watching an episode of MOTD last season.

No nasri on the bench or squad for man city. We never know !

I see Benteke has completed his move to Palace not a great start with his post on Twitter:

Never got that road atlas of Great Britain then?

Ravel Morrison not starting for Lazio, not in the full match squad either by the looks of it

I thought the whole point of using a PR agency to do your tweets is to avoid stupid gaffes.

As long as he's not joining us I don't really care.

What a stooge.

He'll probably net 20 goals and Liverpool will buy him back in the summer for £33m.

He must be gutted that no one big came in for him. Palace fans will be delighted he's not up against them anymore. Scored winners at Selhurst in the last two seasons for us and Liverpool. The winner for us was the Beast at his best. All done by himself from the halfway line.

I think it's going to be Benteke's lot to go to teams who will struggle and rip it up. I honestly thought he was world class (or if not, very near to it) at Villa and would be brilliant anywhere. But he's signed for Crystal Palace when I thought he'd be playing in Madrid now.

[Toronto Villa]

Benteke's desperation to get away from us led him to make a move to a side that simply didn't fit the way he likes to play the game. If there is one thing Sherwood (AKA the cock) would have done is played to his strengths. Rodgers was influenced by the committee up there to bring in a player that in no way worked in his system, but the money was there and spent and Benteke and his roach of an agent got rich. On the back of missing the WC, he then fucks up his chances of the Euro's by disappearing off the map as a footballer at the elite level at precisely the wrong time. Now instead of leading the line at one of Europe's top clubs which we all thought he'd be at if he just bided his time with us, he's now going to play mid table PL football for the next couple of seasons before trying to get a move away again. I have no doubt he'll do ok with Palace. It won't shock me to see him get 15 this season and restore some of his credibility, but he will never be the bright talent that threatened to be so much more while he was with us.
