I watched him play against my Italian team Chievo this morning. He was Parma's best player. He looked tops.

Anyone seen any other loanees recently? I'd love to know how Casio is going.

I have been watching Joe Hart a hell of a lot, he's doing fantastic considering the circumstances, top keeper behind an appaulling defence, he is far too exposed, I honestly think if they had a Birmingham standard keeper they'd be in the relegation zone. Only three teams have conceeded less than Brum this season (chelsea, scum & villa) and three conceeded the same (Arse, Us & Fulham) which is a credit to Joe.

Also I guess he will have more fired at him under pressure than he will with us when Given retires, so he is getting an absolute wealth of experience.

Pleased to hear it about Boj.

Casio isn't playing much but is regularly on the bench; it'll be hard for him to displace Liedson and Postiga (and Djalo out wide) when everyone's fit.

Joe Hart has impressed the three or so times I've watched Brum. Not seen Jo at all...is he playing?

The loan move was fantastic for him. It will be really interesting to see how he develops and whether he will want to come back and fight for his place.

Dazby, no disrespect to Parma intended, but I'm not too surprised Boj looks like their best player. Nor am I surprised that he looked great against opposition like Chievo. Holding down a starting place in the richest team in the world, in the toughest league in the world, is a different thing....

[dazby]

Just reporting the facts Miyagi. I'd much rather him be the best player on the park than not.

I think the Everton fans have taken to him about as warmly as we did.

I thought Amy Winehouse was in here! (Pissed)
