I think this name as been brought up around here before, but what about Jozy Altidore? Had a great season in Holland and now is killing it with the US National team. Could be a great option.. I just really don't want Spurs to pay 20m for Benteke..

Need to get the signings done early, let everyone get a decent pre-season in. Crystal Palace first game of the season, we can't afford dropping points to them due to a makeshift squad.

We dropped seven points against teams we probably should've beat in the first 3 games last season. The same can't happen this time around.

I know the close of the transfer window is still over two months away but do any of you guys have any fun traditions/drinking games for it? ive got the day off due to holiday here in the states and i feel you could make a real riot out of it

15.5m and a six year, 100,000 per week, deal for andy caroll? wow. seems like insansity for a player like caroll who is injured half the time. why did west ham fall so in love with this guy?

Picture it... 10 mins to go and Australia need a goal against Iraq to make the world cup. Kennedy had not played for Australia in nearly a year and he gets subbed on for Cahill who easily our best player and only real goal threat. Cahill has a tantrum and refuses to go off. Holger insists!! The crowd is in shock.... Some of my mates are screaming for Coach Holger's head on a spike.

A few mins later.... The crowd is beyond nervous and screaming SHOOT every time we are near the box... Aussie legend Marco Bresciano gets some space on the right... he delightful chip cross towards to the man mountain that is Kennedy in the box... Kennedy leaps majestically into the air and times perfect contact with his head... 100,000 people in stadium take a deep breath in as they wait to see if its on target... In almost slow motion it beats the keeper and nestles into the corner... we are going to Brazil... The eerily quiet crowd suddenly erupts into this writhing explosion of bezerkness!!!!

A few nervous minutes later and Coach Holger is a national hero being praised for his bravery. My same mates who wanted his head now want him for Prime Minister!!! Josh Kennedy has always the nickname of Jesus over here in Aus due to his facial hair.... but he certainly lived up to that moniker... by delivering a miracle when Australia most needed it. Jesus's header (like Aloisi's penalty) will now be remembered in Aussie Football folklore forever.

We will see you all in Brazil lads!!! WOOT!!!
