Oh I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered Wings:
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds-and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of-wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hovering there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air;
Up, up the long delirious, burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace,
Where never lark nor even eagle flew;
And while, with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high, untresspassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

Woodgate is a very good defender to be fair. Better than Cahill? I don't know. Worthy of a call more than Cahill? I don't know.
What I do know is Capello picked Darren Bent ahead of Kevin Davies recently, so maybe those Spurs fans are on to something.

I think there's something in the water that makes fans of London's clubs universlly deluded, arrogant and often obnoxious. Yet somehow, even in such company the average Spuds fan just manages to raise (or should that be lower) the bar that bit further.
The really great bit is that Spuds fans actually think that they follow a far superior club, despite all the factual evidence to the contrary.

"Revenge is a dish best served cold"
I think Gary is following another great England centre-half, Jack Charlton, and keeping a little black book!
Page 1 Gareth Barry is now ticked!

We have to understand this is 'Tribal Football', the website that clocks up the biggest pile of shit ever. £130k a week for Barry? Ok the City owners might have money to spend but they aren't that daft surely!

Man City will now go into 'buy anything that's expensive' mode. You will see them chase one target and quickly switch to another when one falls through.
It makes you wonder if Mark Hughes is genuinely targetting a defined group of players or it's just a case of buying expensive players and assuming they will gel?

The latter I think. I really don't understand why they've spent money on Gareth Barry. Yes he's a decent player but he's a 'holding' midfielder and they already have two of them in Kompany and De Jong, if there's one position that doesn't need strengthening it's centre of midfield!

I don't think Mark Hughes is buying the players! When teams just start buying big names only you know it isn't the manager buying them. The model is one like in Spain and Italy - I'm the owner, I've bought a load of big name players, now make a team of them or your sacked and I'll bring in a big name manger as well.
Whatever happened to Gareth Barry's burning desire to play Champions League football? Unless I'm mistaken Citeh aren't in the Champions League. Or have they bought that as well?

Skysports also report a bust up between Barry and a team mate.

Apparently the "bust-up" was a foul in the box, followed by Barry getting angry and "ignoring" Cahill.
Mountain. Mole hill.

The sub-headline is hilarious
Barry scythed down after big-money move to City
As if he scythed him down because of that or as soon as he came out of the City stadium.

Sir Brookin': "I see you have come to your senses, Don Fabio"
Don Fabio: "What do you mean, Sir Brookin'"
Sir Brookin: "You've not selected Cahill from dirty Bowlton. You've not even put him on the bench."
Don Fabio: "I'va gone with Upson."
Sir Brookin': "Upson from the glorious 'Ammers"
Don Fabio: "Yes lets hope the Kazaks don't have a centre forward like Kevin Davies otherwise Upson will be crying like he did last season"

Flamin Daily Mail did a piece on the "desperate" search for new England defenders (as in we must be desperate, we've called up a Bolton player).
The thrust of the article was that England should persuade Carragher to come back to the England squad 'cos we need him, and they backed this up with some key stats from this season's premier league comparing the 'best' defenders in England, which showed Carragher in a good light.
Where, do you ask, did Cahill feature in this list?
I can't tell you - the journo didn't even bother to include him in the table.
To$$ers.
