No.

We win 2 home games and Hull will go down with Boro.

Brought the ball out of def very well today as well. Class act. Going to be gutted to see him go. Looked smooth.

We will win.

Bassong is clearly the best def we have by a country mile. Intelligence, composure and and what is blossoming into a trusty left foot.

I was kinda saying that but cloaked.

The ability to run around a lot is clearly an asset in our side.

Old age?

Colo looked passable cause Pompey were sitting and played one up.

I said that. It was cringeworthy as fuck. I felt like a Bolton or Wigan supporter. Without being in the PL safety zone.

As opposed to who ...? The oldest person on the planet of the oldest people in the oldest universe in the oldest multiverse...in the eye of god.

Is this a pisstake? The bloke can barely jog.

You'd need to go back nearly a year to find my I told you so thread. Dimbo.

Better to keep it simple I thought, as people clearly have issues with sentence structure.

Gone a bit quiet innit.

Plus the real lack of cash (relatively) compared to the PL big boys. Half these Serie A clubs were nearly bankrupt a few years ago iirc.

real madrad can compete if they start trying to build a team instead of just assembling star players and hoping it comes together. the mix of more patience and centralised management works in the premiership's favour. when you have one person doing transfers, another picking the side and interference from a host of others, like at many continental clubs (or happened here under KK), it is asking for trouble. when you get it right like at sevilla it works well but there's a reason Benitez came to the premiership and it's because of what he had to go through at Valencia "i asked for a sofa and they bought me a lamp." Now he buys hundreds of sofas. Cheque-book manager. Sorry for going off topic Don't get me started innit.

The football culture of the top PL sides are now ahead of the best of Europe, with Barca the only side that can compete.

It's also cause they aren't a big side and we don't get overpowered so easily in midfield (out passed yes).

Gerrard and Young.

The reason we generally do well against Spurs is cause they aren't a big powerful side (the kind our lightweight team struggle against regardless of quality).

He's best in cycling shorts.

I think he has been dropped. But yes, playing him you might as well give them a goal start.
