good signing Syke, he looked useful against us in the Champions League last season, got a bit of pace and power to him so should suit the Premier League well.

Yeah, that's what I've seen, his goal ratio isn't brilliant, but a few people have said he has been used more of a winger over the last few seasons. Looks like he has some good pace, and very tricky feet. If we get him, still need another striker and possibly another 2-3 signings, depending how big of a squad we need. Hopefully get some signings in before either this weekend or at the latest next wednesday, got a good friendly they can play against (Port Vale).

Kaka's reputation seems to have stemmed more from Championship Manager than actual ability and it showed :p

I'm not quite sure why but just the idea of very tricky feet reminds me of the Traore song.

Pah, all those accolades were a sop gifted to him by legions of Champ Man playing, well football players I guess. They're not to be trusted these football players and as for how they rigged the Golden Boot - you don't even want to know the lengths they went to but since he was playing in the Italian leagues at the time they had experience of this kind of thing...

And all this is ignoring the real crux of the matter which is that Football Manager is the real Champ Man anyway.

Kaka appears to be on his list of players he doesn't like so facts are irrelevant in this case.

I know, I should have twigged with his comments about Diarra and Alonso, but I just don't learn. Even though I know it's just blowing into a hurricane, I still can't help but bite at him occasionally. I think I secretly like setting him off on his little novels.
 
Apparently there were scouts from a number of English PL teams at the Rosenburg v Copenhagen game tonight to watch a few players.

Per Ciljan Skjelbred, Steffen Iversen and Anthony Annan


West Ham, Newcastle and Everton scouts all there. We were focusing on Skjelbred and Annan, West Ham on Skjelbred & Iversen and Newcastle I'm not sure who but they were there. Scouts from Bayern were also there.


Apparently it would be around £4m for Skjelbred, not sure on Annan. Iversen probably wouldn't be that much seen as he is 33 now.


We need some one on the right, so either Skjelbred or Annan would be a very good addition, would probably prefer Annan to be honest...but then again we have zero money so just have to wait and see.
 
From signing both Skjelbred and Annan on FM manager, both of them are central players, Skjelbred a playmaker and Annan a tenacious defensive midfielder.
