  1. If you honestly can't see the massive difference between the way the two sides were built you're on glue tbh.
  2. I do agree generally, was hoping Man U would win today. City blatantly have it in the bag though so may as well see Man U get thumped at home, much as I may prefer them to City they're still cunts.
  3. Actually burst out laughing when I saw the chance watching Match of the Day, didn't know the full time score so just assumed it was in.
  4. Beautiful from Silva there. Really dislike Man City, would be class to see Man U getting a pasting at home though so hope they just go through them now.

    Sunderland...

    But they DOMINATED.
  6. Some serious underrating of his ability in here IYAM. Yes, he's an absolute tank of a lad who absolutely dominates in the air, but he's a mobile fella for his size and has a pretty decent touch. He's far from being a one trick pony and I'd stick him in the team ahead of any of our strikers in a flash if he was still at the club. That said, I think it was a good deal for the club when we sold him and if we were going to spend 20m or so I reckon we'd do much better spending it on two or three players than throwing it all at bringing Carroll back.
  7. Be possibly the ugliest game of football ever tbh.
  8. If he bombs out completely at Liverpool he could be back in a couple of years, Liverpool won't give up on him any time soon though and rightfully so.
  9. Just like last time we made it to the Euros. http://www.dermothardy.com/pictures/scoreboard%20from%20england%20end.JPG

    Gonna be class when Bruce does go, he'll eventually have that realization that he's spent a couple of years making everybody in his home city hate him in an attempt to endear himself to another city of people who'll ultimately think he's a useless cunt and will be delighted to see the back of him.
  11. Should go pretty close to full strength for this, our next game isn't until the following Monday night at Stoke so plenty of time to get rested for that one. I'll be furious if we send out a weakened side and get rolled over.

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    Should start in the free role against Wigan, no question about it. Excited to see what he can do, didn't really get going against Spurs tbh but our shape looked much better with just one up front and HBA in the hole. I'd take Obertan and Best out and give Ben Arfa and Marveaux a go.
  13. I'd try Marveaux on the right.
  14. arguably the same goes for raylor ? I'd say so tbh, Santon in for Simpson at RB would be what I'd look to do in the short term. Long term I'm sceptical of Raylor's ability to be a consistently good full back, and generally I prefer a left-footed player at left back and a natural right-footer at RB, but while he's doing well I don't think you take him out of the line-up. not be tempted to go horses for courses, possibly putting taylor on the right and santon on the left (where he has played to quite a high standrad) against teams with more strength on that side ? Generally not tbh, I'd rather allow them to get comfortable playing in the one spot than having them switching back and forth the whole time. Better for the back line as a unit, too. Maybe on the odd occasion it'd be an idea, but not too often.

  16. Aye, guy playing arguably his best football since we signed him three years ago, let's move him to a different position.
  17. Shocked he stayed on for the 90 minutes today, was more or less rubbish tbh.
