Just back from the Cottage where I met Aaron Hughes, Kaca , Hugo, Petric and Diarra, had a chat with Diarra and asked him of he was going to the African Cup of Nations, he said if he doesn't play for awful ham first to prove his fitness, then he wouldn't be going
That's a good turn out from the team. Thanks for the update on Diarra.

He said "awful Ham" ?? Really? If so he should go to Africa ASAP! If not, and you called this, then maybe you should!

I'll join yer! :merry christmas:
We need him fit he is by far our best centre midfielder
Given his lack of playing time for the club I'd be dissappointed if he left. We need him. He can be our Ledley King, play whenever possible.
On the other hand that has it's drawbacks, it's rather demoralizing knowing that someone will be dropped for him, it discourages the competition element. Anyway we need him now, especially with Sidwell out.
I always have mixed feelings about somebody not playing for their country, but this would undoubtedly be good news for us. ACoN is brutal. Thanks for the field reporting!
Reading between the lines sounds like he won't be playing a full 90 minutes against Liverpool on saturday then if at all. So, Karagounis to step in to breach the gap left by Sidwells exclusion. I was hoping both of them would be playing at Liverpool to bolster the midfield.

Sidwell's exclusion? Don't tell me the special one Iniesta is going to the African Cup of Nations too? I didn't realize he was a special one Nigerian - a dying breed, they are.
