"It's a bloody big deal."

Do you think it is possible that some parent got that urban legend email and decided to name their kid after it as a joke? If so, that guy would be my hero.
A friend offered to pay for my first son's entire college education if I named him "Megatron." My wife just doesn't understand finances, so she put the kibosh on it.
Basically is Walker 2.0.
Fucks something up, is fast enough to reclaim the ball.
I graduated from high school with two people named DeAndre. I've never met a Gareth in my life. Cultural relativism football (or maybe soccer) style.
If you are trying to tell me that Bongani Khumalo was not bought with the sole intention of Captaining our great club to Champions League glory, then your sir, are a liar.
Surely the marketing angle doesn't hurt. But he was a key contributor on a pretty decent World Cup squad when he was like 20 years old. I think he's clearly a legit prospect.
Same goes for the finish. :soldadolol:
Ha, foiled by the auto correct.
Oh, you should see the comedic gold that comes out on some of the U.S. soccer forums. You have people swearing up and down that Tottenham is a shit club that is ruining his career because he didn't get appearances after coming over in January. There is a serious amount of delusion among American fans about just how good he is right now, and they don't seem to understand that a player can be bought for what he can potentially become in the future rather than what he brings to the team at the time of purchase.
It's guys like yourself & KYSpurs that keep it real. I'm sure that every Brit would love a useful boxing prospect to go to America & become heavyweight champion.within a few months. Nobody is saying it won't happen but the expectations of it happening overnight are unrealistic. The "Yidlin"(I think it was Singhspurs who came up with that gem) has massive potential & incredible speed/exuberance that every spurs fan wants to see ASAP . He isn't moaning about his lack of opportunities yet. I guess that is because he is a decent lad who wants to make sure that when he does make the break through, he won't be letting his club or himself down. That, to me, is the best thing for his club, his country & most importantly, himself.
Close, it's C2V. The guy is so good he's an element.
If the declaration of independency was deemed invalid, would he count as homegrown?
Don't think so, seeing as Friedel was alive before that piece of paper was even conceived and he still doesn't count.
Not sure why you want to send him to Germany for a show while the rest of his teammates will be at White Hart Lane.

I dont get why anyone doesn't like this move. He will make the money back wth shirt sales and basically we will be making money off him. He is young enough to not count as a foreign player. He is pure raw talent and no one including hom will expect him to be a first team player. He is younger/faster/stronger than Naughton. He is a similar player to Walker so it wont be a drastic change in style when walker gets a game off. Fredericks can still play U-21, and if he proves better than Yedlin then they can switch or we can loan Yedlin out. This is a no lose situation for Tottenham.
