I read that, absolutely terrible article for content analysis and grammar, written by a 12 year old.

"Isnt the World Class talent like David Silva, Juan Mata or Wesley Sneijder".........

This line is the bit that makes me laugh, what exactly has Juan Mata done to be regarded as World Class apart from being Spanish. Also if David Silva really was "World Class" im pretty sure Barcelona & Real Madrid would have been interested...! Wesley Sneijder was World Class but has been pretty poor for 2 seasons now to be honest.

"Tottenham has played United and City both once in the league this season and were beaten by a combined score of 8-1."

You mean have.

"Tottenham isn't good enough to advance past the quarterfinals of the Champions League as currently constructed, so they need more talent."

You mean are not.

I know it shouldn't - but fuck it angers me. He's on twitter too the little chump. I'm not so if someone feels like sending him an angry twoot from me please do.

I came in here fully expecting to find a Daily Fail article but after reading the comments already here, I'll not even bother with the link. I have a feeling it may anger me!

I agree that it's a horrible, horrible article and makes no sense whatsoever.

However, the has-have issue is just a difference in American English versus British English. Americans just use a singular conjugation for sports teams, and the British use a plural one. It's like saying he's wrong for calling it soccer instead of football; it's just a semantic difference.

But yeah, Bleacher Report is the worst site for football news on the Internet.

25 Million?? Ok well I think we could do with having Messi Xavi & Iniesta at Spurs, but we should only value each of them at 8 Million, so if they give us all 3 and 1 Mill we'll give them Bale
Yes a swap deal that's far more realistic than anything in the Fail.

I also read their "50 Bold Predictions for Football in 2012" article. They couldn't get less bold unless one of them was 'Someone will score a goal in 2012'.

Apart from the ones saying Benitez will go to PSG and Ancelloti won't... Because they're wrong.
