We return from the international break to find Granville totally smitten by Ravel Morrison. While that particular bro-mance takes me by surprise, the shock of my co-host agreeing with me twice on one ScoutCast is perhaps even more jarring.

I guess Granville can afford to be generous. With a 41-point gap between us, the Mancunian may still be laid up by an untimely knee-op but he’s sitting comfortably when it comes to our Fantasy rivalry.

In between sonnets dedicated West Ham’s troubled talent and jibes aimed at my struggling season, Granville joins me in rinsing through the current bandwagons, previewing the weekend and discussing topics such as Suarez’s lost bonus points. He also helps with the mispronunciation of Adnan Januzaj’s name on 72 occasions. We’re now praying he slips back into the reserves.

Witness Granville’s fatal attraction via this link or steam the suspect soppiness via the handy player below.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

          He scored twice for France over the Internationals including 1 peach. He is also the bookies favourite to score a goal anytime this weekend.

          I think Arsenal will score 3. I'd be confident he would be involved in two of them.

        Fair call...last throw of the dice for Eriksen I think. Still fancy Spurs with some of their fixtures but hard to nail down who is the best midfield option at the minute.

    Interesting reading for potential Michu captainers?

    Swansea have averaged 493 completed passes per game in the league this season; more than any other side.

    Sunderland have kept a clean sheet in three of their previous four Barclays Premier League games against Swansea.

    Swansea have currently gone eight successive home games without a win in the Premier League; the longest current run.

    Michael Laudrup's Swansea side have made fewer substitutions than any other Premier League side this season (15).

    Swansea City have currently scored 99 goals in the Barclays Premier League.

    Gus Poyet will become the 11th different manager to take charge of a Sunderland match in the

    Premier League (12, if you include both spells by Kevin Ball). Of those managers, Steve Bruce is the only one to be appointed in the close season.

    Poyet's Brighton side had the best defence in the 2012/13 Championship, conceding just 43 goals in 46 games.

    Michu has directly contributed to more shots than any other player in the top-flight this term (32, 16 shots, excluding blocked and 16 chances created).

    Sunderland are only the sixth team in Premier League history to have recorded one (or no) point after seven games; three of the previous five were relegated.

    Adam Johnson has created more chances without registering an assist than any other Premier League player this season (16)

    A) carry her through life paying for everything.
    B) live without her and live on my own (a sad existence)
    C) Chuck her - lazy
    D) other?

      Dear Deirdre,

      Just mention to her that now is a good time to buy a house, in general conversation, see what response you get.

      If she seems keen, then kinda hint about paying arrangements. If she gives the impression that she will say nothing & hope that you will pay for everything, she is looking a free ride...

      This will actually be a good test to see what sorta girl she is.

      D) Other: It is great that you two began dating at 17 and found love and have had a wonderful time for the past 3.5 years, but you are only 21. You are very young. I don't mean that to beliitle your relationship, but I simply want to point out that you will NOT be the same person at age 30 that you are at 21. Neither will she.

      Trust your values and do what you believe to be fair and correct, but do not compromise your dreams and goals. You only get one shot at this life. Are you going to ride the bench or step out onto the pitch? True, you could get your leg snapped like Eduardo did, but the bench is no place to live your life. In fact, even Eduardo proved that the pitch is the only place to live your life when he scored two goals for Arsenal on his return debut following his hellish nightmare. (YOUTUBE the Eduardo footage and his return if you need a reminder.) Ultimately, a well lived, ethical and successful life takes courage and the passion to step out onto the pitch. You'll understand this point better when you are 30 . . . 40 . . . . 50 . . . and on.

      It is impressive how hard you are working to focus, mature and devlope into an adult. You appear genuinely concerned about preparing for a secure future. That puts you in the top .0001 percentile of 21 year olds. In football terms, that makes you like Oscar, Ramsey, Lukaku, Januzaj, Shelvey, etc. You are taking responsibility and getting a great start on life. Don't squander it. Never aim low. Keep setting your goals high and work hard -- ethically and honestly -- to acheive them. That is what it means to be a man: Integrity, honesty and knowing what it takes to give a crushingly hard day's work effort.

      You think you may end up alone and sad. Perhaps, you may be alone. But, that will only be fleeting and temporary. Indeed, if you keep your course you will have women lined up down the street vying for your attention. You know why? Because women find a REAL MAN sexy as hell.

      Your post reveals the resentment that already infected your relationship. A successful relationship is based on trust, honesty and respect. You need to be honest with her. And, perhaps most importantly, you need to be with someone you respect. Conversely, she needs to respect you and be honest with you.

      If it is no longer a fit between you two, then man-up and be honest about it. Have the conversation that needs to be had. In the end, if it doesn't work out, then respect and appreciate the 3.5 years together -- I am sure they were special and meanigful -- and everybody is free to pursue their dreams and ambitions and live their lives as best they can.

      Just remember: you may be alone for just a spell, but that will be temporary. There will be hordes of women knocking at your door . . . . . WAIT A SECOND! Did you say you are going to be an account? Nevermind. You better just shut up and do what she says.
