"Mikey-Watch"

Another thread on Mikey, true. But I have to keep my hopes up. Losing my favourite 'Pool striker is a blow that can only be softened with the return of the only 'Pool player I have loved more than him. Mikey is on his way back - that's what The Times seems to think:

Read that in my paper this morning before my run, and then amused myself by thinking of Mikey while running (not in a gay way).

Stevie says he'll talk to him in the England training camp. No-one can turn down Stevie. No man, no woman.

Ah, I knew Rafa wouldn't have let Mikey go without lining up his high-profile replacement.

Thank God we made these signings.

Compared to what, water? Yea really solid defence, United had to play some incredible football to carve open that defence twice to manage to get anything out of the game

Oh, I'll see, will I? Coming from a guy who knows less about football than, well, everyone here?

Oh, and is it also a game of two halves?

On paper it is, they just need to form a greater understanding between each other.

I wouldn't be surprised if that were true

Since when was their defence solid?

Turns out Owen has a £12 million get out clause in his contract.

Jammy git.

It suits Benitez's style of play. Crouch suits Liverpool more than Owen does. You shall see.

Owen is gonna have a great season and so are Newcastle. Solid defence, promising midfield and a wonderful strike partnership.

The season is really gonna open up now.

Pffft, 4 years...no chance of him leaving unless Newcastle get relegated.

Owen must be desperate. Very very desperate in fact.

But things could work out fine. With Souness's track record Owen could be loaned to Liverpool come January due to a full scale public argument between the two of them.
