Yup but he was mishitting passes when he did get the ball. Think he wasn't at his best regardless and that's from a huge huge fan.

Those videos make him look like a final third type player. Is his starting position deeper than it looks on those videos?
Edit: Just read this http://bundesligafanatic.com/milan-badelj-hamburgs-deep-lying-playmaker/. Sounds good!

The Standard Chartered logo is shite.
Cheers for the dough and all that, but fucking jarg design.
I agree the actual 'logo' part is a bit meh (It would be better if it just said Standard Chartered, and no squiggles), but the layout is much neater and presentable than the Carlsberg logo IMO. I was never a big fan of the stupid font, and the crappy extended G.
Also, while I'm not a huge fan of the banking sector, it is better having a bank (one of the world's biggest) as sponsor's than a beer company.

I was going to post about this, I'm surprised it's not got a mention elsewhere. What a great documentary, some heart warming interviews in there from Barnes, Fashanu and Bright and co. Quite odd seeing "Racist Ron" talk so warmly about his 'friend' though.
Probably because racist Ron is just stupid more than racist Mark.
It was a good program

Yeah true, I just found it odd that's all, I did always like Ron tbf, but he fucked himself over with that Desailly comment.
You guys getting hopes up! Who would you offload to accommodate him as he has probably at best has 2-3 seasons left in him?
Chabby back would give me a chubby.
Alonso and Gerrard in the middle, Suarez behind Sturridge, Coutinho on one wing, Downing replacement on the other, Lucas, Allen and Hendo as squad members. That'll do me!
So Gerrard on the wing?
Name your best 11 with Xabi with in it
I'd tug Oncy's cock for that.
It's been working great recently with Lucas though. Gerard's not the same player he was 7 years ago.
I gladly put my hand up and admit that I was one of those who thought we got a good deal selling alonso - I was wrong. however, I am unsure him coming back at this stage would work. I suppose it's all about the money/cost. A free alonso is a no-brainer. a 12m alonso is another matter.
If we're rolling in dosh, then maybe you're right. however, if it is a choice between spending that money on a cb or his position, the situation becomes very different.
No it doesn't, he's one of the best midfielders in the world and its a position we badly need someone with his abilities, we lack composure in the first third of the pitch, and Chabby is the epitome of composure.
no one is denying he is great, but we desperately need a strong cb. in my view if you offered me a choice between spending the money on a cb or a cm, I would pick cb. As i said before, ideally we could have both, but its a question of priority.
There were rumours he's been chatting for a fair while about coming back. In a heartbeat I'd have him back. Supreme player with plenty of years left
