Of course, looking back, it was because the English teams were out of Europe and he got Chris Woods, Terry Butcher, Gary Stevens, Trevor Steven and Mark Hately to join him.
That was quite a team when you added in Richard Gough, Ian Durrant and Davie Cooper, plus others I can't think of right now.

It was a decent team tbh though Cooper wasn't long there after the beast arrived.

That's a story on it's own.

I always loved watching Davie Cooper bombing down the wing. So sad he died so young.

He's certainly looking up for it tonight.
Even Zabaleta's looking like he's remembered how to play.

I think Parish doesn't understand that most Palace fans think Freedman's a tit. (according to a Palace season ticket holder I know)

Antonio is the greatest living Englishman. He confirmed this when he turned up at the England get together with some of his kit in West Ham carrier bags.

Seen him once, always thought he got the goal that day rather than set it up.

Tbh the second half is pretty unavoidable given how great he actually is

Pete posting stronk tonight. Can't be a coincidence that it's when Leeds are doing so well in div 2.

We balance this by playing without a defence.

Haha. Thanks tchaz. We haven't started this well since we started with the 15 point deduction and were near the top by Christmas.

I noticed there was no analysis of his home game against Sunderland.

Come on Hammers. One more goal puts us in the top six.
