Who is Bascombe talking about

[AnfieldCop]

In the match report in Echo (after the West Bromwich game) Bascombe is saying this:

 

When new recruits with pace to burn arrive this summer, Alonso will surely be licking his lips as much as the fans.

 

It may only be Gonzalez but it may also be that he knows who Rafa has lined up for the RM-area /striker

[Benitez]

my money is on him not having a clue at this stage!

 

Apart from Gonzalez of course.

[stressederic]

Me

[Ombudsam]

i agree with benitez. he's talking about gonzalez and beyond that he doesn't know. if he did he would just say, it's his job

[Cobs]

Michael Owen

[Mike]

cobs we have the same idea and it is clear.

[floyd]

Can't be Owen, as he's lost about twelvety yards of pace since he was 18.

[Guest Assassin]

Michael Owen

 

Obviously referring to the pre 2000 model

[Cobs]

Can't be Owen, as he's lost about twelvety yards of pace since he was 18.

he's still quick enough

[Gravy]

cobs we have the same idea and it is clear.

 

Me three.

[Mike]

owen is nailed on this summer. fact.

[CarraLegend]

Simao hopefully, dunno if we'll bother again though.

[cymrococh]

Henry.

[Guest Assassin]

owen is nailed on this summer. fact.

 

 

To a cross by his spindoctors......

[Guest Jack Bauer]

Cheyrou is coming back

[Ombudsam]

Michael Owen

 

Owen doesn't have

pace to burn

[psl]

Rafa hasn't signed many players with 'pace to burn' so far. Really doesn't seem to be his way of doing things.

Gonzalez and...Calliste

[cymrococh]

Owen doesn't have

Cash to burn more like.

[Cobs]

Owen doesn't have

not as quick as he was - but still quick

 

like Ronaldo.

[Mike]

this is our idea and it is clear

[Guest Assassin]

not as quick as he was - but still quick

 

like Ronaldo.

 

 

The real Ronaldo has speed to burn, even in his Molbyesque stature he is quicker than Owen. His speed defies logic......end of.

[psl]

I'd be surprised if Ronaldo were quicker than Owen. Young Michael's no slouch.

[Andyjandy]

Obviously Henry.

[Swipe]

this is our idea and it is clear

 

How come you're so sure MO is coming back? How do you know?
