I'd already forgotten both of them ever existed

Certain positions haven't really been rotated, Goalkeeper was purely a form thing, Diame seems to play when avaialable as does Gayle. A rotational policy doesn't mean there are no preferred players or that all positions must rotate continuously at the same rate. Surely you know that though.

I don't think Gayle is a #10. TBH though it might work. There are no doubt many ways of achieving success in this division with a number of formations given our squad. But one of the things we all knew about rafa coming into this was his formation preferences. Conversely though, wtf is so right about forcing that lineup when what we're doing right now works a treat? Because people are in luuuuurv with the mad Serbian's pashun so much he deserves disrupting it?

I seriously want more of him commentating. Can't get enough of the non stop moaning.

It should definitely be something that changes based on opposition and available team selection. Since I'm forced to pick I'd say Gayle.

hue hue hue

quit fucking around liverpool

Even a blind pig finds an acorn every now and then.

Was it Dan Patrick, 54? It was probably Dan Patrick. He wasn't serious.

Not only an awful attitude to have but also unquestionably thick as mince. He's shown he's a useful Championship squad and having a large, fit squad is partly why we're doing well on two fronts. tbh that's only ever going to be enough (for me, anyway) to transform hatred into indifference; I don't dread seeing his name on the teamsheet anymore but I don't care about seeing him start either as I've grudgingly accepted that Rafa (probably) knows more about football than me so whatever, give him game time. that said, no one deserves any kind of injury like that and I wish him the same hope of a full recovery as I would anyone.

He's definitely made things around NUFC not seem so goddamn fucking hopeless all the time. Unlike they have been for most of the last decade. It's hard to even put in to words the night and day difference he's made in how I feel now on match days and the feelings of overwhelming despair and dread which I used to have. I expect the feeling is even more profound for people who actually get to matches

I always had faith in Dwight Gayle and knew he deserved the #9.

:lol:

bit of a damp squid this one

Bizarre he's not on now. Rafa must be punishing him for this http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2016/09/28/22/38E5002000000578-3812317-image-a-28_1475099967156.jpg The ol' belly-to-belly suplex. Invented by the Kazakhstani's, perfected by Magnum TA.

Not per season but per calendar year as they're counting all yellow cards picked up in international games as well. Sounds about right for the seahorse coiffed wanker.

Although his first name is an anagram of Brazilian legend Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima's first name, the two are not related.

point of order: he was saying "that's the joke" to signal the audience that it had ended, not that it had flown over their head.

yet amazingly that relegated trio fetched ~£70m

Oooo our strikers aren't pretty enough

dunno like, last 20 minutes or so he switched into try-hard mode and was half a yard of running into shelvy or diame trying to chase everything down and just generally out of position and reckless. Also he's unquestionably crap so there's that.

dummetts hunched over tracking of the ball will never not be funny to me

beard power. come on.
