  1. We must go with an unchanged back 4 in front of Krul. The chopping & changing of that back line has to stop, there needs to be some continuity and I'd rather see MYM continue to work well with Debuchy and being partnered by Capt'n Colo. If Cabaye is to start, then a 3 man midfield with Sissoko + Anita retaining his place b/c of his excellent form. Up top it has to be Hatem, Remy (if fit), and Cisse. If Cabaye is not starting I'd consider replacing Marv for Gouffran to give us some pace & energy out wide with Remy and Cisse up top. Hatem out wide as usual and Sissoko + Anita retaining their partnership in the middle of the park. Either line-up should get us at least a point and if we start with the first one, we should be capable of getting 3 points. The key for us to attack and impose our game on Villa - the end of the Fulham match has to be the springboard (I hope).
  2. So how is the football at one of these testimonials? As I've never been - entertaining, bit of nostalgia, a fun occasion? Some daft shots from far, etc? Wish it was on tv....

    Robert's range of free kicks were insane like said before me - he could curl them with precision, smack it with precision or do that run-up and just smash the hell out of it. He absolutely understood whipping the ball in with pace via cross, corner or strike into danger areas b/c with the pace he could get on the ball - it could go anywhere. Brilliant player man. That Arsenal away match at Highbury

    In terms of giving f***s, Robert certainly gave none. One of my favorites to ever wear our shirt and one of my personal favorite players ever. Some of the things he did man, my goodness that magical left foot of his. TaylorJ nailed it too, another one of those crazy lads who's played for us you can't help but love. Hatem has every bit of skill and talent to go on and be remembered forever as one of our greats if he gets himself fit enough to play multiple full seasons relatively injury free and signs a new deal with us.

    I was born in Tampa and lived in Orlando the past 10 years. Regarding Orlando -- The central business districr downtown and th neighborhoods surrounding are really great places to live, work and play. Although the attractions area is a bit crazy, it's massively essential to this city, county and state. We should be so lucky to have a major demand generating business/area of town that attracts an array of local and foreign tourists who add to our diverse area -- on top that the attractions business is a great source of jobs and employment for the people of Central Florida. I really love living here and enjoy it. Ouch. Nah I think Ronaldo's probably a chill dude in real life. Ron's an awesome guy.
  7. As his nation could be entering a playoff to get into the World Cup. Idiot.
  8. Class asset for that goal man. That kid could absolutely be something in his career. Has something special to his style of play.

    Certain areas are class tbf Overblown stereotypes thrown about by people in this thread Florida is a super relaxed and very good state man. Sun, beaches, natural beautiful bodies of water surrounding the state and a really class diverse population.

    Florida is fucking class, I was born here and lived here my whole life. The heat can get a little crazy, like the fact that its about 100 degrees in my car right now, but regardless - its awesome. Luca just trying to steam roll my state so cold!
  11. Baresi just said we had beautiful stadium and great fans. Damn that's awesome Honestly, what a brilliant team to be playing in a charity match man. Really speaks volumes for the man that is Stevie Harper.
  12. Great read on why this blogger regards Phil Lahm as Germany's best player: http://espnfc.com/blog/_/name/worldcupcentral/id/589?cc=5901
  13. http://tyneandwear.sky.com/newcastleunited/article/80312/harpers-testimonial-what-our-newcastle-united-starting-11-would That value link that KI mentioned....
  14. If approached by the right new owner (if/when that ever happens) you get the sense he'd listen and strongly consider it. Also love how he always refers to Ashley and co. as custodians and the not club. My same feelings exactly.

    He's clearly a later bloomer in terms of talents and he's much better than the USL, evidenced by just destroying it last night
  16. My Dad randomly has shares in Sheffield United from 2001 so he got a letter about this t'other day. Why not us? Makes me think a passionate person with a good story to tell about the club, city, and fans could get a rich guy to buy us. That article made something very difficult look easy as f*** Keegan needs to take a trip to the Middle East and get a deal done...
  17. The main difference between then and now is that the Magpie Group had an alternative potential owner to get behind and their champion was John Hall. We don't have a John Hall to get behind. The closest we got was "Two-Bob" Barry Moat who the banks wouldn't accept as a potential owner without guarantees from Ashley Personally think a modern day Magpie Group would be something that had a Keegan/Shearer involved with a Sir John type person and they were actively looking to help bring in other high net worth local buyers OR bring in a partner from overseas who bought into the vision and had honest ambitious plans for the club involving Sir John/Keegan/etc to be part of the Board/Chairman/Manager whatever... I've sort of maintained the position the last year or so that although Keegan would be my favorite type of manager, I'd rather he be involved with the overall vision and make-up of the club so that he would be part of our future as he dares to dream and has always been grateful for the supporters. Hell if that meant he came back as manager and no matter what happened would become a board-level person when his time was up - happy with that too.
  18. I upgraded our Dish when we moved for NBC Sports, but BeIn was a massive surprise. Made up. Yeah at least we can get some league cup matches & for me, USA away qualifiers, also we get La Liga action on this right? Class stuff. U-Verse continues to impress me man.

    Listen to the first few minutes of Sir John Hall and Keegan and its just a bit more damning and painful how far we've fallen....Keegan's talk of being privaleged to have the job and reinvesting the supporters money thats been put into the club...ah man.
  20. BeIn now on Uverse? Yessss. Wish I knew this last night.
