Fairly tenuous link to Bale along with Spurs and Newcastle, probably his agent trying to drum up interest.
well there is the Belfry and Dudley Zoo nearby.
I get the golf reference, but the zoo?
put it this way, if he auditioned for the next planet of the apes, he wouldn’t need much make up.
Not a good analogy

I think there are a few who need to look in the mirror and realise they’re not exactly Brad Pitt themselves 😉

I think a few need to lighten up a bit.

Problem with Phillips is that he's got the moves but hasn't got the touch

Rumours we’ve been offered €4m for Trezeguet.

It's a shame really, and a sign of how the premier league has distorted prices, because he's only 27, and clearly a more accomplished player now than the one who joined us for almost £9m three years ago - so you'd hope to get at least your money back when selling him.  But the reality is we could only get 9m from teams in the premier league, or from a handful of teams in Europe.  He's worth more than 4m euros, but if that's all we can get, then so be it - he has no future here, clearly.

Well if Trez is off he’s been well worth his transfer fee with his very important goals at the back post for us. He’s good lad, when he’s not trying to do a Bamford and conning the ref.
