The College Dropout

I remember that. At first he dismissed Oba as being offside, after the replay showed he wasn't he was talking about "50/50"... no... no it isn't 50/50... fucking twat

I dont think Souness was that bad, yes he spent alot but to take some names: Owen Parker Emre Luque How many of us complained when we signed them? Keane on the other hand spent big money on s**** (apart from Gordon although he spent quite abit!), everyone knew that before they played a game! Boumsong Faye Waste of money & wages the lot of them.

We don't even have a proper captain.

Fancy a prediction HTL???

Aye that Ajax team have been garbage over the years like. Oh f*** wait, Johan Cruijff says f*** you. The examples you give are always the exception to the domination of 442. How many international tournaments, champions league tournaments, premierships have been won by 433? About 6? How many have been won by 442? about 1,069,991 and counting. Funny thing is, if someone tried telling Johan Cruijff his team were successful because of the formation and that in a different formation the personnel wouldn't have been as successful, he'd probably tell you to f*** yourself, an rightly so! Is this a wind-up? The last three Premierships have been won with 4-3-3. The current leaders play 4-5-1. False. Arsenal only play 4-5-1 because of injuries and because Eduardo can't perform in the league. They are a 4-4-2 team no doubt. Van Persie and Adebayour would start up front together. And a 4-3-3 is a different formation from 4-5-1.

Statistics is what football is measured on. Goals win matches. A striker who doesn't score more than 3 goals a season really isn't doing his job properly.

I scored 2 goals in my league on Sunday thank you very much. It'll be nearly 3 years before he scores more than that.

I reckon he'll have a purble patch and score in 4 games on the trot. So yeah, 4 goals I reckon.

No but you see, you've mentioned a name.

Kaka needs a haircut. Messi looks like he decided to stay out & play football rather than having a bath.

As individuals the England team are very strong. I don't think the Italians are a class above England but they won the WC.

Man City play it from defence.

Yeah, along with Gerrard, Torres, Lampard, Rooney, Fabregas I thought Gerrard played well.

I thought there would be more "Papering Over The Cracks" comments tbh.

lol so would I.

Interesting.

At least he didn't swear. Or maybe they edited that bit out. What did he say? Richards swore after his goal against Villa in the F.A Cup the other year. That was funny. He was so happy.. he did the elongated/sighed "fuuuuuuck"

The competition for that title: Smith - average squad forward who's bark is worse than his bite, played as the lone forward. Martins - clueless "speedster" who looks like a lost 4 year old who's been left behind in the supermarket by their parents when put on the right wing. Barton - midfielder who is very slowly building up his form, and even then he was hardly a top class attacking player. The truth is, Milner only has to put a few aimless crosses into the box to get called attacking MOTM, because everyone else is either s*** or playing s*** (or injured), and thats pretty much the case at the moment. Agreed.

I'm inclined to believe the latter, really. The sort of crosses you usually get frustrated at are the ones too close to goal, the ones the 'keeper grabs. No numbers to back it up, of course, but I think we've had a fair few at the back post this season - just that noone's ever there to pick them up. How about young James looks up when he crosses and attempt to pick someone out. He'll never be good enough in the long-run imo. And by the "long-run" I mean if we ever want to consistently challenge for Europe he'll have to move down the pecking order. If that's true, then the majority of our team isn't good enough because very few of them outperform Milner on a regular basis. Yeah, the rest are even worse.... but we all know that. I'm not saying James is the weakest link.. he's one of our better players which is a sad fact.

Your mate Andy Johnson scored woopdeedoo, whats that now 3 prem goals in 9 months? (by the way, the player who you didnt want at your club and claimed would be a flop also scored) Steady on. Yakubu has done a lot better than I thought he would, mostly because Moyes has got him to pick up his work rate and fitness a bit Lies. Moyes just let Yak do Yak.

Aye not very good. Lacks real quality. We need wide players as good as Solano and Robert in their pomp.

Rather sell Owen.

Once again terrible match. I might as well do something worthy with my time and d/l some porn.

Sam forgot to adjust the team instructions tab. We all do that from time to time.
