Sort of things I want to hear before Sunday!

Fernando Torres claims he is desperate to beat Manchester United on Sunday to repay the fans who support him through thick and thin.
The 26-year-old counts our 4-1 triumph at Old Trafford in 2009 as one of his best days in a Liverpool shirt - and he knows securing three points in Manchester again on Sunday would mean so much to supporters.
"Liverpool fans are great, when you play well they are behind you and when you are not playing the best they are still behind you," Torres said.
"I walk my dogs round the city and before matches like United the fans will tell you good luck and things like that.
"It's clear how much the Manchester United games mean to them, we have been rivals a lot of years. Beating United means everything to them.
"We are the two most successful teams in England but it has not been nice for the Liverpool fans to watch Manchester United have so much success over recent years."
Torres has scored on Liverpool's last two visits to Old Trafford, including a 4-1 win that counts among our greatest ever league results.
"Hardly anybody ever wins at Old Trafford and beating Manchester United 4-1 on their own ground is practically unheard of," said the World Cup winner.
"We went 1-0 down as well which made the victory that much more impressive.
"I scored the equaliser and to this day I think that has to be one of my favourite days wearing the Liverpool shirt.
"We have a great squad and a great manager, and we really hope to give the fans a trophy this season, as well as beating Manchester United for them."
Torres is looking forward to his lunchtime contest with opposite number Wayne Rooney.
"They have some amazing players but Wayne Rooney is their standout player," he said.
"I really like him. He is a great player and a funny guy, so we usually have a little chat at the end of the game.
"Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs have had great starts to the season though, and if they were still in the 20s then I don't think my decision would be quite so easy."
