Did Bentley say "Don't talk about Dublin" :lol: ?

Yes, yes he did. And Ledley King, 'l'enfant de Tottenham'? I like it.

As a point of interest, the French just cannot pronounce Tottenham, but instead say 'Tott-an-am', clearly articulating each syllable with a stereotypical French accent. When you tell them it's actually pronounced 'Tottnum', they then go to the other extreme and come out with an incomprehensible 'Tnnm'. True story, as I found out when I got roundly mocked my some Algerian immigrants for pronouncing the name of my own football team correctly :-|

Awesome find mate - really appreciated.

But i've been itching to find out what this reporter bird looks like - good news, found her name (see below), bad news, she seems to share her name with a French porn star so not sure what she (the reporter) actually looks like! (ofcourse i had to investigate further......purely for SC information purposes!! lol)

There is a tiny tag line photo of her here along with an interview with Seb in French. She would defo get it...

Haha what, so the side of the front part of her face would get it? She could have another face on the back of her head for all we know. A bit like Voldemort.

Good job finding the Bassong interview though.

Yeah, you have to click on the link in the box in the top right (les plus vues)

Interview with Bassong is really interesting by the way, for anyone who speaks French. It says the journalist is best friends with Bassong's fiancée, which is how she got to meet all the players!


Just edited my post to say I foiund it - didn't think to look for reply - most 'normal' people in bed:grin:

Bassong seems like a bit of a legend. Wonder who else was in the car with Bentley and Ledley.

Defoe is a cheeky chap too. :lol:

Look at Defoe's track record. To be fair, he isn't going to crack on to no ugly.

Not really going to crack onto someone classy either, judging by his track record ;-)

Yep apparently so!

'Amis inséparables il y a sept ans, Seb et Marie se sont fiancés cet été. À l’époque, Seb était encore au centre de formation du FC Metz. Ayant suivi Sébastien en Angleterre, Marie n'a pas pour autant renoncé à sa passion, l'équitation, ni à ses projets...'

At 22, Mary is now a "wag" (wives and girlfriends), the nickname given to women and girlfriends official players in the tabloid press. Inseparable friends seven years ago, Seb and Mary got engaged this summer. At the time, Seb was still at the training center FC Metz. Having followed Sebastian in England, Mary has not given up his passion, horseback riding, and its projects ...

2 things:

1. No way does she look 22, looks more like 27-28 to me.

2. Seba obviously loves his funky house, look at him at the end of that vid in his Escalade!
