Sven to Lil’ Mick: ‘Have a Seat’

And here I was, worried with the prospect of having to pair Owen with Peter Crouch.

Now, I’ve got to be worried about pairing Peter Crouch with Theo Walcott.

(Note: I think that Peter Crouch is a gifted athlete – and tall. But, when it comes to who’s in form – he scored, what, 6 goals this past season.

Darren Bent, meanwhile, has never scored less than 17 goals. This past season, while Charlton were losing 5 of their last 6 matches, Bent marked 22 goals.

Yet, Sven leaves him out.)
