Oscar Bobb sounds like a French disco star of the late 70's that worked with Nile Rogers to produce some underground hits, but never enjoyed the mainstream appeal in the wider market that he had at home.


He sounds like a blowjob in the back of a Hackney cab.

We really don't want to be signing any players nearing 30 on long contracts.

Yeah i agree. Thats what gerrad did and thats why we find ourselves in this mess

The mess that is the current French international Lucas Digne, and Bouba Kamara?

BBC gossip column has Lazio bidding £15m for Tim Iroegbunam.  What’s the likelihood of us having a sell on clause?

It's from Football Insider, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Done credit Gerard with Kamara? I thought that deal was in place before he started?

Wasn’t his move to Everton held up as an example of our dodgy accounting? Lo and behold, he actually was worth the money. Now if we can get the same for Dobbin…

Gerrard flew out to Bouba’s home. Blaming Gerrard at this stage is a stretch.

Didn't he fly over to France to seal the deal? Atlético Madrid had been in contact beforehand, but dropped their interest because Bouba was barefoot and wearing shorts when their sporting director went to his house.

Gerrard gets MASSIVE credit for signing Bouba on a free.  He just loses it all again for signing Coutinho on a 4-year contract.

Fair play to Gerrard then. Also Digne, he's been another good signing.

I thought Coutinho was all done by the Fernando Torres of Finance?

Thats the most villa thing ever - doing a sly one only to work out that we still get the bad end of the deal.
