Pompey off to Wemberley and Bowton 2-0 up at the Hammers.
Davies and Wilshere with the goals.

Elmander is a shocking excuse for a striker. Should have made it 3-0 right before half-time but ballooned it over the goal when he had time and space. Saw him in the game against Tottenham where Bolton were awesome and he was similarly poor.

Club record transfer fee?

Swap deal with a total value of 10m, according to most sources. Never noticed him before the Spurs game and today was just an extension to that. Even the best strikers miss sitters but he just looks like one of those scammers who somehow manage to con managers into playing them. Is he really that bad or have I just seen a couple of really bad games for him?

Is Vokes an old English word for c**t?

7 yards out. Keeper rooted to the spot. You smash the ball over the bar. If vokes isn't an old word for **** is should be a new one.

Was watching the rugby and only just seen the Wolves - United score. Good game?

No. It would have been if Vokes had been able to finish, but he couldn't so United are top by 2 points.

Wolves were the better team really. They had a couple of decent chances first half, United none. An innocuous United cross wasn't dealt with by the Wolves defender, ball fell to Scholes, who went round one defender who was pretending to be a statue, and one who was pretending to be the Saadam Hussein statue being toppled after the invasion of Iraq. Easy finish.

Wolves were plodding in attack late on, ball pinged around a little and fell to Vokes, 7 yards out and he blasts it over the bar. Scholes chance was easy, Vokes chance made Scholes chance look difficult.

So United were second best and played poorly away from home but still came away with the three points?
Ferguson will be happy.

Was a solid player in France where he was the main man of a pretty average side. I remember when we played Toulouse in a CL qualifier, all the pre-match talk was about Elmander but he looked pretty poor, I'd seen him play a few times and he looked kinda like a Santa Cruz type of player when I seen him, he was strong, held the ball up well and was good at bringing others into play, but in his time here he's done none of that. I remember seeing him for Sweden at the Euro's and they used him as a right winger, he never really stood out, he tried and was a willing runner, but he never stood out in a pretty average side. Was extremely surprised when Bolton signed him, he wasn't exactly young and he wasn't exactly proven, for that kind of money, you'd be looking for a prospect who'd come in, offer you a few years of top service then be sold on at a hefty profit. It was a very strange signing IMO.
