Probably emergency cover with view to coaching role. He won't play instead of Caulker I wouldn't have thought.
I can't imagine it's going to be very cost effective as emergency cover. Bet he demands a fair wage

How many great players of the last 20 years have been great coaches / managers?
Most of them have been fucking disasters, whereas the likes of Wenger, Ferguson, Mourinho hardly had distinguished playing careers

Some great ITK tonight, I love the fact that Freund will be coming back to the club.
And bares a striking resemblance to Gaspard Ulliel...
On the strikers front, currently we have one senior out and out CF on our books, Defoe, but rumours suggest he may be off to Reading. Other ITK say Adebayor is only days away from being announced, but that would still only give us two strikers (one if Defoe goes). So I would expect at least one more forward, maybe two...
Lloris, Vertonghen, Sigurdsson, Moutinho and Adebayor.... All look very very likely, so good summer really. But since I'm anticipating at least one more striker, exciting times ahead.
qui la fuque?
I agree but with Gallas and King on the way out an experienced head is quite logical. Think it's also a case of him and Villas-Boas knowing each other - friendly face in dressing room etc.
Thank god we didnt spunk all this cash when Harry was in charge. We'd be sitting with a teams of pensioners right now.
Good work so far DL, I knew I was right in trusting you
I typed up a post about why Adebayor would be so cheap. He's costing ManC £9m (more if that's his net) a year in wages. For a player who they haven't even got a squad place for. I still find it amazing tat Levy is doing this deal. The only way is if ManC are still going to pick up at least 70k and maybe 100k of his wages for the remainder of his contract (2 years I believe). He may well have said to City "I'm not going anywhere but spurs" and they realise it's either cough up another 18m for a player who will never play for them again, or cough up 7-10m to get him gone.
AVB will have worked with Carvalho at Chelsea. Apart from being a wiley old fox of a defender (although IMO he's way past his best) he'd also be AVB's dressing room capo as well maybe. A strong character, used to the EPL, iused to EPL players, who could be AVB's eyes and ears at ground level.
It used to be so easy for me: just get my own surname on it. It was great. No thought needed. Didn't look too geeky.Right can we please sign everyone we are going to sign by Friday so as I can get my shirt on Saturday with the right name and number and my kids shirts
POTL :

I take it you mean the game rather than the organisation!. fifa promised me this!
