Villa could be the new Klinsmann! smile.png

not another diving machine wink.png

I was a season ticket holder then Bob....it was magic....and I mean just unforgettable the reaction he drew from our support. Bale has the same excitement....Villa could be great for us for a couple of years anyway.

Yeah I remember cursing his name as a kid, but he was great to watch at that time and invented the diving celebration, turning the whole thing around. I'm not sure about Villa after his leg break, but you never know

I agree he's a risk...but worth a punt....a player who is never happy second best....unlike our current incumbents.

having already spent 60m on moutinho and rodrigues, monaco this week expect to tie up falcao for 60m plus also victor valdes and ricardo carvalho. getting silly this is.

All this money being splashed out on players, who are going to a club that could be banned from playing in Ligue 1.

Monaco must know this is not going to happen, as will the players that have recently signed

they're calling the league's bluff basically.

Reported on ESPN today that United are keen on Fabregas. A surprise I suppose, if true, but Fabregas hasn't set the world on fire at Barca, and United looking to upgrade their midfield. Rubbish ? I've no idea. With the signing of Neymar Barca's midfield is looking awfully crowded though.

Another cult hero at WHL but still not much to show for it as a team?

Don't know about cult hero but Klinsman was player of the year wasn't he. Also one of the finest strikers Germany has produced so good enough for me.

neymar will take david villa's spot one would think. not in the midfield three but in the front three. barca need to sort their defence out first and foremost anyway. lash some money at matts hummels and thiago silva and just get it done.

Definitely the way to go regarding shoring up the defense. I do wonder about Neymar replacing Villa though. An attack based on nothing but midfielders and no legit strikers ? Forgetting Messi, the ultimate hybrid. It seems to be the Barca way, but they seem not to worry much about having a Plan B.coffee1.gif

He may score a bushel of goals, but seems to be roaming about midfield more often than slotted up front. At least when I've seen him play. But yes, at Barca I would expect him to be closer to the action.

I think this year showed the first signs of the power of the Barca midfield waning.

I thought Iniesta and Xavi looked tired in the CL semis. Age taking its toll maybe?

Possibly. Maybe Bayern were just very very good. As with most german sides, maybe they were also just fitter in the latter stages of a long season.

To be continued in the Liverpool or Transfer rumours thread? Single issue threads are a pain in the proverbial.

Yes far too much wishful thinking on the part of some that its Bale the main target.

What makes far greater sense would be to get a contract extension from Ronaldo and sign Suarez, (who would be far more suitable baring in mind Madrid have Di Maria and Ronaldo already) who could finally put to rest his hounding by the british press.

Makes absolute sense, and an election winner too

      Thai-Chinese Collaboration: MOU Signed for Environmentally Friendly Waste-to-Energy Plant

      A groundbreaking Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between Thailand’s Vision Inspector and Engineering Co., Ltd. and China’s Aurorean Recovery Co., Ltd., marking a major step in the development of environmentally friendly community waste-to-energy power plants. The signing ceremony, held at Aurorean Recovery’s headquarters, was attended by key figures from both organisations. Representing Vision Inspector and Engineering were Chairman Visarat Potprasart, Civil Engineering Manager Wisarut Rithilert, Public Sector Liaison Manager Chatchai Sapseesuwan, Technical Specialist Manager Manoon Permpintong, Electrical Engineering Manager Natchawarakan Pornrattanun, and Facility Manager Manoch Wangnak. The Chinese side was led by Mr. Thomas Jing, Chairman of Aurorean Energy. Under the agreement, the two companies will collaborate on the Waste-to-Energy (Thai-China) project, leveraging advanced gasification technology to generate electricity from municipal waste. Operating at high temperatures of 1,000-1,200 degrees Celsius, the gasification system promises a clean energy solution free of dioxins, pollutants, waste by-products, and odours. The waste incinerator, featuring a 360-degree rotational axis, ensures optimal combustion quality. Residues from the process can be repurposed into high-strength construction materials or landfill materials, while excess energy from the steam turbine system can be managed efficiently, maintaining sub-zero temperatures where needed. This innovative approach addresses waste management challenges while supporting environmental sustainability, combining waste elimination with clean energy production. The project’s initial implementation will take place in Kanchanaburi province as part of Thailand’s broader strategy to establish permanent waste management solutions and generate renewable energy. With an investment of THB 1.35 billion, the pilot plant will feature a 6-megawatt capacity and handle at least 500 tons of waste per day. The project aligns with the Energy Regulatory Commission’s 2022 directive on purchasing electricity from community waste-to-energy plants. Construction is expected to be completed within three years, setting a benchmark for similar projects across Thailand’s municipalities, provincial administration organisations, and subdistrict administrative organisations. The partnership highlights the shared commitment of Thai and Chinese enterprises to leveraging advanced technology for sustainable development, with a vision to support special economic zones, tourism, and border trade.

      Sing Buri: Pickup Truck Crash Claims the Lives of Father and Daughter

      A crash occurred in Sing Buri province, where a father and his young daughter lost their lives following a collision between a motorcycle and a pickup truck. On November 22, 2024, officers from the Bang Rachan Police Station were alerted to a crash on Highway 3454 near Wat Muang Intersection, Bang Rachan District, Sing Buri. The crash involved a motorcycle and a gray Isuzu D-Max pickup truck, both bearing Sing Buri license plates. Upon arrival at the scene, authorities found three injured individuals. Among them was a woman who was a passenger in the pickup truck. Rescue volunteers promptly transported her to Sing Buri Hospital for treatment. Additionally, two other individuals, both in critical condition, were discovered at the site. Rescue teams performed CPR in an effort to save their lives, but tragically, both succumbed to their injuries. Preliminary investigations revealed that the deceased were a father and his daughter who had been riding the motorcycle. Authorities are continuing their investigation to determine the exact cause of the crash. Picture from responders. -- 2024-11-24
