Boom Boom

5 trophies in the one calendar year (2001) UEFA, LC, FA Cup, Charity Shield and Super Cup. Although I think most of us only really count the first 3...

Got those mad staring eyes though....reminded me a bit of a mad looking Swedish keeper from the 80s/90s called Tomas Ravelli ( I think)....

Wasn't Mascherano's £18M or was it £17M inclusive of five years worth of wages?

Only 8/10. Don't deserve a WAG and mock Tudor house in the suburbs.

Great hit from Spearing, just wide. 1-0 all over.

Super pass by Mikel, Weijl went for a goal when he probably would have been better off squaring it.

Good strike by Weijl knocked away for a corner.

Brouwer off, replaced by Andras Simon.

Shot by Brouwer from just inside the box, doesn't seriously test the keeper.

Super finish by Pacheco, very composed.

Surprised nobody mentioned the CL winner in the Pompey ranks :whistle:

Overseas subscriber - 3rd season - although originally discovered TLW through buying a copy from Dave U in 2003, and am a regular visitor to the site.

Great clips. What's most apparent from watching those goals is the man's close control and composure in tight situations.

Apologies if this was mentioned already...from RTÉ Ireland's National Television and Radio Broadcaster Barnes returns to Jamaica Wednesday, 17 September 2008 10:00 Former Liverpool and England winger John Barnes has been named as the new coach of the Jamaica national team. The 44-year-old, who was born in Kingston, will take up duties in November after agreeing a one-year deal with the Jamaica Football Federation. Barnes takes over from Brazilian Rene Simoes, who was sacked as technical director last week. JFF president Horace Burrell said: 'The board of directors of the JFF have approved the appointment of John Barnes, former England international, as the head coach of the national senior team. 'The board have approved his appointment for a period of one year, which will be up for review, and possibly renewal.' The post is Barnes' first job in management since an ill-fated spell in charge of Celtic in 1999-2000. During his playing days, Barnes was long tipped for a career as a manager but since leaving Parkhead he has concentrated largely on media work. Burrell believes his appointment will also help increase the profile of the Jamaican side. He said: 'When you are involved in international football you need an individual with international stature. Having a coach of international repute opens a number of opportunities for our national team. 'Many countries will invite you to play friendlies only because of the image and reputation of your coach. 'When an icon like John Barnes becomes the coach of Jamaica's Reggae Boyz' team, immediately the international spotlight will shine on Jamaica in every single aspect of the sport.' Barnes lived in Jamaica until his teens when his father, who served in the armed forces, was posted to England. He began his playing career with Watford before going on to achieve stardom in a Liverpool side he helped to two league titles. He finished with spells at Newcastle United and Charlton Athletic. Former Hull City and Tranmere Rovers midfielder Theodore Whitmore has been named interim coach for next month's World Cup crucial qualifiers against Mexico and Honduras. He will then stay on as Barnes' assistant. Burrell said Jamaica will select their strongest squad for the upcoming matches, including Hull's on-loan Wigan Athletic striker Marlon King, who was excluded by Simoes.
