      Imagine that comparison at Christmas time! Not my analogy, this is high praise from the Daily Express. It’s not bad having little Wigan being compared to arguably the best club footballing team of all time.

      Roberto Martinez – Pep Guardiola
      Shaun Maloney – Andres Iniesta
      James McCarthy – Sergio Busquets

      I’m going for a lie down! We’ve come a long way from pies, Formby, rugby, crowds, piers and whippets.

          “The demoralising run that ended in an eighth straight league defeat when Wolves won at the DW Stadium at the start of November is long forgotten.”

          We must be away to Wolves on the 13th May!

            Not sure McCarthy will like being compared with Busquets.

            I know teams like Barca need one but Busquets is simply a water carrier with attitude. Horrible b*****d !
