Kanj

I think its safe to say, unless AP is sacked, and that happens right after the season ends and before the transfer window opens up - that HBA will be gone. Fucking shame how it all has transpired.

Needs to be dropped and used as a substitute for the remainder of the season, shame really, as he seems a great and committed lad. Just looks completely lost.

Went to the shop and checked out all of the World Cup kits that are being released... - England: Home kit, while plain and simple, looks good in person - Italy: Both the home and away kit look strange, honestly, all of these Puma kits look far too skin-tight for any normal wear - they remind me of cyclist uniforms - France: Both kits are brilliant, the home especially - Brazil: I know Flip mentioned something about the home kit, but again - it looked better in person - Holland: The classic badge looks awesome - USA: The golf polo home kit is much better in person and the away kit looked OK, wasn't actually too big of a fan of it. - Spain: Just not a fan of their kit Woops, don't know what I was saying, simple kit but not a fan of the red shorts. - Argentina: Very nice, was better than most - Germany: Liked both, tbh. - Puma in General: Awful, all skin-tight and felt cheap - Adidas in General: Hit or miss - sometimes their stuff has just too much on it - Nike in General: Good for the most part, while I may not like some of the designs, they all looked better in person

Unless he fires Pardew he's already failed at his job.

All this fantastic movement is fine and all - the way he glances around defenders in the box is class - but you don't get points by not scoring goals.

so basically nothing has changed, wasn't he already doing all of this? New title may not mean fuck all.

Nice chap and all and seems class off the field for all the things who does for his home town - but the sooner people stop making excuses for Cisse the better. He's instinctive but not clinical and hell likely not find that form everyone thinks he will again under Pardew. He's missed far too many chances this season when he's gotten into the right positions.

Ideal world: Bielsa, Girard, Temuri, Poch, Laudrup, Rijkaard

Wasn't Miralles written off for the most part under Moyes?

Baines is one of the oldest looking 29 year old guys in the PL

Keeping Cabaye, Signing 1 or 2 more players (not expensive either) and replacing Pardew - this fucking team of ours should be challenging in the same positions this season - despite our massive weaknesses in our depth - its literally that close / the quality of Remy + Cabaye + 1 more player of first time quality

Quoting you, for quoting me for extra emphasis. Pure utter unhealthy jealousy.

My jealousy of Everton at an all time high right now

= midds post

I know it wasn't vintage and great, but up until Cabaye stuck that free-kick away at West Ham, at least we were winning games and we were ticking over nicely along with Spurs & Man Utd. Since that goal, it's been turgid. Everything about us on & off the pitch. Just f*** all. Absolutely rotten. I have never seen a more 'we're safe so f*** it' attitude in all my years of watching football. Not a single person associated with the first team has any interest in bettering themselves once that point was reached. I assume next season they all assume we'll just be able to turn it on again and start not getting hammered every week like a switch. Good luck with that. All quoted posts here are spot on. It's fucking grim.

I don't know what he's capable of b/c we don't actually create chances for goalscorers much. When we do its either to Remy or Cisse, and 1 scores them and the other doesn't. Cisse seems to get chances when De Jong is off the pitch. We're hopeless. If we had a different manager, then I'd say otherwise, but as it stands - don't buy him. And i hope he gets a move back to the Dutch league to make something of his career as he'd be wasting here.

Heading to the shop this afternoon to pick up (hopefully) one of the USA kits for the World Cup, will let my fellow prontonising yanks know how they look in person. the store I went to was closed down. Should have checked with Cuba as it was across the place he used to work at. Welp, will try tomorrow at the other shop

Whats your beef with Norwich? I assume Cardiff = b/c of Tan. No explanation needed for Mackems....

Recap of what BG said?

Like I'd ACTUALLY ever stop watching.

I'll be watching them (my dad's home town club) until things change here. Bye then.

It took this f***ing long? Or are you joking...serious question.... Has to be a joke.

If one of those players isn't capable of scoring 12+ goals we will go down regardless.
