Ronaldo amping up the "unnecessary confrontational" to a whole new level these days

Would've inevitably taken us down at some point anyway

I really hope he is a really pale white kid. He's the Kiwi guy they bought for 5m or something ridiculous after he had a semi-decent World Cup.

Wish we'd picked up Nagatomo at some point. He may be Scum of the Earth but I've seen few better left backs anywhere. The talent was there for everyone to see for a long while before he moved to Italy and there was definitely a chance for somebody like us to get in if we tried.

Krul kind of looks like he's drenched in blood

They're a Qatari club though, given that we are Qatar's bitches they might call in some favors. Fuck it, they probably did. I'm not even joking.

I've mentioned this in another thread, but Barca better beat the living daylights out of Al Saad.

VI, I just found out that you guys are playing Al Saad in the CWC semifinals tomorrow night. I expect a minimum of 15-0, okay?

Didn't they sign Bebe and Obertan over the same summer? What a transfer window that turned out to be for them

Just one defender period would be enough to make me happy.

Please tell me that's not real. Actually, please tell me that it is.

Have you been in Chat lately?

"moving in the right direction" =/= "we don't make bad signings any more" Maybe a better way to phrase it would be "we don't make expensive bad signings anymore." Then again, that might just be because we don't make a lot of expensive signings full stop To be fair though, everyone we've bought for a significant sum of money within the last 2~3 years has been pretty decent.

Right footed left backs do exist you know. They generally end up being pretty shit when shoehorned into right back too.

Fucking hell he's been away for seven games already? In any case,

That's kind of the point, tying this up in December gives us the whole month to go look for defenders. Plenty of time to sell Tiote, Krul, and Coloccini too

I just dont think we need him too urgently, I'd rather sign a right winger and 2 defenders first. Obviously you'd rather have him than not have him though. The decision to continue to push this deal while the window was closed to have him ready for Jan 1st was probably made at the beginning of the season, where ostensibly our biggest priority was a striker. It makes a lot of sense if you look at it that way. Besides, this is the end of Lovenkrands. Somewhere out there Ronaldo is ing

Us spending 7m on a player? What is this slanderous libel!

I'm going to Knock out the first person who attempts a stupid pun with his name.

Venky's might be just about daft enough to take the money.

Smith would give away 1 penalty per game like clockwork. That would be five pens in five games before he's suspended and has to miss one.

I imagine I'll have difficulties in about a century or so when everyone is playing in a global football league with teams and fans using mass-transit teleporters for away matches and my local club and Newcastle finally end up in competition with one another.

The comical shitness of Blackburn almost makes this bearable.

It's pretty realistic to imagine them playing together tbh. At Liverpool

No matter the team, Asian players just cannot get the ball passed to them. Park's been at Man U six years FFS, they still don't pass to him
