I see:ehh:

On to more pertinent questions. How you feeling about Dario Conca's inclusion into the top 100 players in the world by the guardian?

Also, your thoughts on IBWM's top 100 player list

http://inbedwithmaradona.com/journal/2013/12/18/ibwm100-for-2014

Never heard of him, and I'm not that versed in most other leagues let alone country. Never heard of this Dario Conca.

Edit: Looking through the list I see names I know. Notice Chelsea has a whole fleet of Belgian players on loan which is kind of scary. I'm happy to see Adnan on there, hopefully next year Moyes keeps this tradition going of letting young guys play. Force this vets to step up or move out.

:what: he's one of the most exciting 30 year olds on the planet :what:

Have you had the chance to catch Moussa Konate's matches this year for Genoa? I have this strange feeling about him but I wanted to see what the OFT brehs thought.

I just have this strange feeling that he'll go the route of most African players i.e. make a big splash in a random European league, then his brother gets kidnapped in a botched drug raid back in Africa then he fritters off into obscurity.

Thank God you can't tell the future :heh: Hopefully the kid does well in whatever he does. Switching leagues has a lot to do with going into a different culture and everything. Hey, do you think Arsenal will stay top? City and them Pool cats are surging. And you think Theo can play up front, you guys rolling with Giroud all season, or is Wenger gonna spend big next month?

mmmm I don't think Arsenal will stay top. In fact I have a very strong feeling we're not top right now but I haven't looked at a table for ages.

Rolling with Big Sexy all season. Hoping for Wenget to splash big on a Diego Costa Lewandowski blockbusta though :ohlawdddd:

We all know Dortmund is Bayern trainer club, Lewandowski isn't going anywhere except there. You guys got 55 for Diego? Well not got, you guys will ACTUALLY spend that on him?
