His final ball is stunning; that's what sets him apart from all our current and previous recent wingers.

My main concern with McManatee, is in away games...our home form has been at least average, but poor away form has briefly threatened a relegation campaign..
This will require him to take on greater defensive duties, to which he's probably not suited....bit like Wenger prefers Eboue, over Walcott for away games etc because of this.

junnihio(i know its mispelt) Yeah something like that. He was a very small chap, and therefore an example that size doesn't matter if you have the skill to pull it off. Wise is a short-ass also but he more than held his own at the top.

For those who do remember, how does he compare to Hazard for example, in terms of a buzz when he gets the ball?

Have to say when he gets it you are waiting for something to happpen. He tore them to shreds today, although thewere pretty shite. Wouldn't say 's quite in the "you know he's going to do something" bracket but could reach it in time.
And whoever complained about McGovern today is clearly just looking for something to moan about. I'm hardly the guy's biggest fan but today he actually ran about quite a bit, he linked well with Jack Smith, and he put so good balls into the box. The only criticism would be his defensive efforts but even they were ok for the most part.

Bangkok Red, well, today he almost "did a Gazza" (from Euro 96), flicked it over the defender's head with his left then immediately smashed it with his right. Went well wide though.
Wonder if the dentist chair would have been re-enacted?
On another note, is it normally this cold in April? I seem to remember Mansfield at home last season being quite pleasant.

However, humans are responsible for warming up the earth (which is colder than it ought to be), and that's apparetnly bad. However, it's snowed in fucking April this year (not unique I know), and last year the summer sucked big time. Does anyone actually know what's going on, or are all the scientists just making it up as they go along?
