Stewart Downing - West Hahahaham player

[Craig_H]

What an utterly absurd headline

It's how they do it though.

Downing: "We've got Chelsea coming up"

Headline: "Downing claims Liverpool will destroy Chelsea"

[Shaggy]

Ridiculous

Can you imagine the quiet, softly-spoken Downing marching up to the interviewer and booming:

"I WISH TO ISSUE A WARNING TO MANCHESTER UNITED!"

i can, and i think i will.

I had a chuckle at the headline myself, but Jesus christ people need to relax, can't believe they get wound up by the most innocuous things.

When i posted the article i expected the response to be....'Downing Warns Utd'?..My Arse, he did nothing of the sort.

Last thing i expected was Tee to start a 'Shut The **** Up Stewart and just play football' lynch mob.

All players that cost £20m should never give interviews? He cost £18.5m btw so is it ok that he gave one?

My point is he hasn't done much talking on the pitch yet considering his price tag, not that he can't give interviews.

It is a fair point, but sssssssshhhhhhhhh!!!! Not too loud or the lynch mob (Vermillion and his pesky mates) will be out for you!!

Price tags are a load of bollocks..

He's done a lot more than Henderson and Carroll, considering their price tags..

What is "He hasn't done much"?

Compared to who, what?

Compared to what any normal person expects of a 20 million pound signing! Same goes for Carroll & Henderson with a small exception - they are very young & have time to prove themselves whereas Downing is "supposed" to be at his peak...

Compared to his price tag. Even compared Charlie Adam, and Jose Enrique he has done sweet FA and the price tag of both of those combined was almost half that of what we paid for him.

"His price tag is irrelevant - he is every bit as important to us as wee Jay, Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher - who cost us nothing - so forget about money.''

Didn't Jessie J write a song about this specific issue?
