Taylor Swift

That was my first comment after the match ended. All possession, no penetration.

Slipping out of our fingers with every classy little touch of the ball. This is the first time I've seen him so I wanted to see a few good things, some potential maybe, but he looks like the finished article out there. The only average thing he's done was float a cross in. Every other touch of his has been exceptional. Quick, strong in the tackle, good technique, good passer of the ball. Holy shit balls, we really need to sign him.

All right all right, Debuchy needs to not be so good.

Debuchy

Cabaye looks very good in this free role. He's hanging deep, spreading the play but he's not too defensive.

Me too.

Golazo

I also think the international argument fails to take into account the different role he has for Argentina. His assist numbers are ridiculous. Even at the Copa America, they didn't lose a game, went out on pens where the whole tournament, Messi created goals and played much deeper than he does for Barca.

The CL argument is incredibly unfair since your argument assumes that to be the greatest, he and Barca have to win it every single season. Their record over the past four years is already unmatched in modern day football, so the CL record is an argument for him. I'm also not sure how you conclude that he was shut out against Man Utd in '11 when he created the most chances and was MotM.

Van Persie draining the forum cash.

This thread, man. Whenever I go away for a few days, I'm always excited to see this thread. Seeing wormy win was fucking surprising

Krul would have saved that.

Holy shit

It's pretty funny that two of the last three league titles has been won by Italians.

3 or 4 year deal then?

This thread is a mindfuck.

The odds were far too good for Chelsea. Bayern are the stronger team but when you're betting, it's not only about that. It's about the odds, which really favored Chelsea. I was surprised the Asian Handicap was at 0.75, and not 0.5.

Winner winner chicken dinner

By the way, this thread is mint. :lol: I'm so glad I wasn't home when the horse shit went down.

£100 on Chelsea getting 0.75 Asian Handicap.

If they get someone like Hitzfeld, Rijkaard, Capello or Lippi then I'd be worried. I hope they get Rodgers or Martinez because they'll be back here - managerless - in 18 months.

It still hurts but I'm pretty damn sure that'll happen.

What are you going on about? :lol: Everyone knows you talk shit, Mike.

We should hit 100m in operating revenue now. That'll be good. Hopefully we'll hit 110m if the deals we signed with Puma and Virgin Money were good.

Yes. They fucked Man Utd out of a title. That is something that I like very much about them.
