Online Host: Good Evening and Welcome to UKLive. We are talking to Jason Euell, the Wimbledon Striker. Hello Jason and welcome. Would you like to say a few words about yourself and maybe some opening comments before we start?
Jason Euell: Hello to everyone out there. And fire in some questions:o)
Question: Jason, Who do you think will win the World Cup?
Jason Euell: Probably Brazil
Online Host: As ever, debate continues about where Wimbledon will be playing in the next few seasons. PaulCO asks: Jason, what are your views on Wimbledon's proposed moves to Hull or Dublin?
Jason Euell: I think it is speculation to keep the fans thinking that they are trying to find somewhere as a home. But Merton is the number one place we are looking for
Online Host: Arch287005 asks: Jason. Who would you put money on for next season's title?
Jason Euell: The team I support - Arsenal again!
Online Host: In view of that reply :-) ATwyning asks: What do you think the reason has been for the lack of Don's goals this season? And how sickening is it that we had to rely on Arsenal winning to stay up?
Jason Euell: I think it is down to the injuries we had and we haven't had a steady partnership like we did last year with Marcus Gayle And Efan.
Online Host: TMastr4964 asks: Which ground has the best atmosphere?
Jason Euell: I think a number of grounds have, not just in the Premiership. Even at Wolves where we played them in the FA Cup there was a great atmosphere
Online Host: Players are always asked what their expectations for the next season are.
Jason Euell: I think to get a good run in the team - touch wood - no injuries
Online Host: Jason, back to the World Cup :-) Which team do you think will give us a few surprises?
Jason Euell: I think Nigeria. Even though we do know about them, they could still surprise us as well as America.
Online Host: In the Premiership, ATwyning asks: Are there any promising young players to watch out for next season? Michael Owen has turned a few heads this season ;-)
Jason Euell: I would say Danny Murphy of Liverpool if he gets a regular run in. And even though Anelka has done well this year, I think he will do even better next year. And myself<g>
Online Host: RMooremail asks: How can more youngsters like Michael Owen be encouraged into the game?
Jason Euell: They just should play football and just enjoy it And see what happens

HOW DID U GET SPOTTED BYE BYE THANKS KRIS MCNERLIN AGED 12
Jason Euell: I was playing for local Sunday side and there just happened to be a Wimbledon scout that saw us playing. Then I got invited to go training and it has all gone from there.
Online Host: FootiChick asks: Jason, In your eyes, have Wimbledon got Euro hopes heading their way sometime soon???
Jason Euell: I hope so. I think the squad we've got now maybe needs a couple of new faces could be pushing for Europe
Online Host: Arch287005 asks a question about the mood at Wimbledon: Jason. How is the mood in the Dons camp after doing well above expectations last year and not as well this year?
Jason Euell: Think the mood is still the same Just a little disappointed that we didn't do as well As we know we can
Online Host: back to your own career :-) Boxbored asks: your goals come from the six yard box do you see yourself as another dean holdsworth or a midfield player ?
Jason Euell: No I don't think so Just being at the right place at the right time but at youth level and reserve level very rarely scored goals from six yards.
Online Host: Dipsy20000 asks: who was your hero when you were young?
Jason Euell: Umm growing up it was Glenn Hoddle and John Barnes But now it has to be Ian Wright

Jason Euell: May be not the best but it how you see it
Online Host: R1V4LD0 asks: Do you think that Wimbledon have lost their 'long ball' tag...just as Arsenal have? Also, as Arsenal have now won the Premiership, do you believe that the 'passing' game is the way forward?

Online Host: Another football host, UKHostWolf asks: Jason - what do you think of the monopoly that Sky has on Premiership football? Do you think that there should be a wider opportunity for terestrial television to show these matches?
