Chelsea Vs Woolwich?
Black box - identity confirmed.
I have never owned a games console or played any games (which would be played on a console/PC). It's a cultural blind-spot for me.Completely off-topic...do you play Fifa pro clubs?

Only because we played a team called 'Mans A Fish Cuz'...though I assume this is some kind of social media thing that I've missed, rather than something isolated to you ochbye:
...at least he would be someone to MARTIAL the defence!!! aulinholol:aulinhowtf:

Best videos are always the videos where it shows every touch in a certain game. Granted, they only really use games where the player was noticeably good, but what I always look for in these videos is the awareness, touch and vision of a player because those are things that you can't really teach.EVERYONE looks like a good player in clips... that's why they use clips!
If he was shit for 89 minutes, and had a blinder for all of 1 minute... that's the minute you'd see in the clip, surely Shirley?

Yes - been mismanaged for 2 seasons now. Better than MandzukicJuventus wants to take this player. Surely I know him very little because Manchester United doesn’t interest me. Is he a valuable player according to you?
In Juventus-Spurs I appreciated Son and Eriksen: they impressed me. Son is devastating on the band (the old Barzagli decided to retire after the humiliation). Eriksen has great technique and excellent tactical sense.Yes. Yes he is.
Him together with Rashford have been two breezes of air in a room full of beerfarts that is ManU.
Player with very good technique and a lot of promise but not nearly utilized how he should be. I have been quite amazed with his close control/dribbling. He could also be quite direct with the ball (something I feel we have lacked at times) and his decision making for such a young player is quite good as well. I totally believe him leaving ManU because he is just standing still there. If he would have spent same amount of time under Poch, he'd be all over the front pages of sports newspapers. Basically he has regressed under Mou (like so many players do) - in his 1st season he scored 18 and assisted 11 while being 20. And never improved from there somehow.
But if the question is "would he be valuable for Spurs" - this one is harder. We currently have Son (last season 21 goals +10 assists; this season 18G+9A), Alli (last season 22G+13A; this 12G+17A), Eriksen (Last: 12G+23A; this 14G+11A) plus "challengers" of Lamela, Moura and Sissoko who we can deploy as AM. We still have not given proper run to Moura as of now. Would be quite questionable to slash the cash on new boy in this sense. Though I feel he would be better option for Kane substitute then Son is right now.
We have to consider that he won't go for peanuts if sold (Juve and Bayern are after him; latter being more realistic to me given the age of Ribery and Robben+ way deeper pockets then Juve), I think we are looking at around 50 mil pounds for him. So - hard to justify signing him, even though personally I really would like to see player with his qualities in Spurs.Theoretically if we could get 10 mil for Llorente and 25 for Sissoko (if we also add quality to midfield to address his departure) somehow then adding another 15 and getting Martial would make ... some sense. Though would make more sense if we'd decide to move on Lamela or Moura + Llorente. All this is extremely unlikely.
