  1. I'd rather keep Wiji, personally. I think he could turn out to be a top class player if he can find some consistency.
  2. He was way more productive going forward before Rafa came in IMO. When he tries too hard he begins falling over himself loads and shit like that. I think he was always pretty good defensively when playing right wing. We expected too much from him going forward IMO
  3. I still find it surprising that people think he played well since Rafa came in. His quality was mostly poor and he was much less effective on the left. The only difference was that he worked much harder which shouldn't be enough to be deemed one of our best players during that spell.
  4. Not sure what his goal record is but he certainly doesn't appear to be afraid to have a shot.
  5. To be fair, Shelvey is potentially the former, but likely not the latter.

    Papiss Cissé

    I doubt it, we've already got Gayle in and have a few other options. Depends what we intend to do with Armstrong this season I'd say.
  7. Department stores are shite, tbqh. Let's do department stores now we've done cities.
  8. Since when has the definition of "character" implied shitness?
  9. Fuck off, is it. Yeah that's utter bullshit. Went there a month or so back and it's a really nice town. It's one of the most well maintained places I've ever been to, on a par with touristy parts of London for how clean the city centre is.
  10. Like most of the south coast. I lived next to Brighton for 5 years and it's shite tbf. Some parts of the south coast are lovely though, in particular the small villages dotted around the place. There's not a city centre in the south (London aside) that can compete with the city centre's in the North like Newcastle, Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool etc. Canterbury is beautiful, albeit smaller than the cities you've named.
  11. To watch, when he's playing well, Wijnaldum.
  12. Will always have a soft spot for Colo despite how he declined. At his best there's no other centre back I enjoyed watching more.
  13. Commentators all but saying Gignac has been shite.

    Andros Townsend

    We offered him that option, but he turned it down. Seems like being in London is more important even if it is playing for a struggling club with an arsehole of a manager. Didn't realise.
  15. Any target is unrealistic for summer 2015 tbf.

    Andros Townsend

    Shame we didn't consider loaning him to a Premier league team for a season.
  17. It's not. Iceland are a very good side with results to back it up. It's absolute arrogance to dismiss them based on the fact they used to be nothing. We should absolutely beat them. No. England are not a good team. There's a reason I bet on Iceland. Yes, I'm sure you were saying we're not a good team when we won all of our qualifying games and when we beat Germany. We massively underperformed this tournament through poor squad selection and tactics. There's plenty of ability in our team. We saw in our opening 3 games how easy we are to defend against though. I'd have said England will win before the game but I'm not surprised at all we were beaten, they actually could have had a couple more too. I'm not arguing that we're capable of winning an international tournament, but I think a different manager could get significantly more from what we have. People have been saying that about England since 1996. The arrogance of the fans and players, and the unforgiving nature of the media has got to be eradicated before there's any improvement. I've been completely apathetic towards England and as a result, international football for a long time, but this group of players slightly refreshed my interest. Why shouldn't we give a new batch a chance because the last generation underachieved and over stayed their welcome?
  18. Your fans are shit. they aren't. Now isn't the time for truth.

  20. Really hope you live to regret those words. such confidence when you couldn't top the weakest group in the competition. Scared for when Martial comes on. Really can't see us holding a 1-0 but they look a bit shaky at the back too and McLean and Long have the pace to hurt them. Nerves. Scenes. England are undefeated in ages man and dominate almost every game we play. Sure that doesn't make us invincible but Ireland wouldn't get the ball. If we find our scoring boots against Iceland we could go all the way IMO. If we got France, there's always that quality factor that they have, a player like Payet from a free kick could put us to the sword. FWIW, I don't think Ireland could beat Wales or Slovakia. [emoji38] You could go all the way alright. Iceland ffs. Give it a rest, immediately after the game looking for a bite. give it a rest? I got absolutely slaughtered on here for showing pride in my country getting narrowly beaten by fucking France, in France. Heard all about how England would destroy Ireland and how they'll dominate Iceland. England are fucking shite. And I'm enjoying this because of how people went on at the time. Wouldn't have opened my mouth otherwise. It's partly down to your club captain we are so shite so it must be a tad bitter sweet for you arguably your best player in entire thing but OK. Drag it back to Manchester United sure. Anything to drag it away from the shit show tonight. I've been happy to see Rooney play this tournament and throughout most of the times he's received stick, but he was woeful today. His passing was atrocious and he was completely static.
