    Ibrahomivic is an absolute * he's making his team mates look stupid and Henrik in particular. Get him off the park if he has a ladder in his tights the moaning faced *, he's not even half the player Larsson was in his prime yet he struts about like a prized peacock.

    On a lighter note, Pavyluchenko is awesome and i highly doubt an achievable targert for us now!

    Russia could have won 5-0 with ease.

    I think it's the first time larsson failed to score at a tournament.

    Poor Larsson stuck with that shower of *. Even Elmander looked awful and I thought he was supposed to be no bad. Ibrahimovic is a greetin' * as well.

    Russia.....

    I've got £20 on them to win the whole thing at 28/1 so now Larssons out come on THE RUSKIES :56:


    Pavyluchenko looked very good although reportedly at £6 million before the tournament that value can only go up. Afraid he must be a goner and if Arshavin wasnt so greedy he couldve had even more and increased his value further.

    On the note of possibly available, I thought their left back made Naylor look like Mo Camara. Brilliant delivery (apart from once or twice), set up the crucial first goal with a great run and was up and down that line aaaaaaallll game.

    Zhirkov his name is and I wonder of his availability.

    Larsson was doing the work of 2 strikers and he was left out to dry by his partners refusal to run into space, if they played Allback from the start it could have been a different story imo.

    With that being said Russia look a quality outfit and Holland v Russia looks like it is shaping up to be tie of the tournament!

    Sorry to see your favourite Larsson beaten that way, but we Russians desrved that game vs. Holland much more. Hope nobody'll deny that Russia plays much more attractive football than all Scandinavs summed together.

    Another sorry is that you're not going to see Pavlyuchenko in green and white uniform, ever. Russian clubs have more money than Scottish, and we already have a limit for foreign players FIFA is going to introduce everywhere. So Russian players are getting good salaries, and clubs are very reluctant to sell them, even for good European price. Probably, Barcelona will have more luck with him than you:84:

    As the matter of fact, Zhirkov is a winger. Hiddink uses him in defence because we don't have a decent attack-minded left back. Recently, CSKA was offered 10 megaeuros for Zhirkov, and this offer is going to be declined, so be ready to pay 12-15 mln.

    First of all thanks for the info and its a great shame that we've been priced out of many of the Russian players. There are some quality players there, like the guys mentioned and you play fantastic attacking football. All the best against the dutch.

    Can't help but feel you're a little dismissive of our club though. Maybe you should come back once you've won the European cup then we'll talk :86: Might be waiting a while though lol
