I was serious about wingers. Never hear of them anymore. Steve Highway was the last one I heard of Liverpool having.

They're called left or right sided midfield players now. Same shit different bucket. They're supposed to link up a bit more closely with the left and right back. Well, duh!

You mean full back or wing back

Great weekend of Premiership football with lots of surprises which rather annoyingly pushed me down the fantasy footy league.

It's no surprise Berbatov has stopped scoring as I made him captain two weeks ago. Every time he misses a chance I throw something at the TV.

I bet you're hitting the target more than Berbatov!

Is this the man for WBA?

Mark Walters, Steve McManaman?

Don't know about Liverpool but players that spring to mind generally as modern wingers are Wright Philips, Ashley Young, Adam Johnson, Arron Lennon. Maybe they don't stand on the touchline waiting for the ball but they're pretty close to being a winger/inside forward.

John Barnes?

Wayne Routledge (is he still at Newcastle?) is an out and out winger.

He's back at QPR. I can't immediately recall if it's a loan or whether the Toon sold him... hang on I'll check. It's a loan for the season.

Loan

That makes sense. He does seem to have been through a lot of clubs in a short career. He seems talented enough so maybe there is something else we don't know about.

He was at Spurs for a while but didn't make much of an impact. Although the same could be said for Taarabt but he's been a belter at QPR.

Pierre Littbarski? An interesting choice. What do West Brom fans think?

Rumour: Andy Carroll out for the season?

What's Geordie for Schadenfreude?

You're missing Ameobi now as well.....
