0-0 and TIMMY on again?

Despite us being a complete waste of a football club with a shit manager who gifts them six points every season, Sunderland have struggled to finish above us. Don't see why that would change this season.

I'm really sorry Flip. I hope Lebron signs for the Magic.

Do you imagine they're just covering because Gilberto Silva threw a hissy fit and ran off?

The guy said "Pardew is a cunt" something like five times in his original post How does he end up being a Pardew supporter

This thread is pointless and really should just be locked and no longer bothered with. Although, to be fair, that should probably apply to the entirety of the football forum after the world cup is over. There is nothing worthwhile to discuss.

Think he was really getting into the heads of the Costa Rican kickers. He guessed the direction right all five times.

His country is in a penalty shoot out to get into a world cup semi final. He is absolutely right to be making it as hard for them as possible Krul's macho mind games probably won it for them for all we know.

TIMMMMYYYYYYYYYYY!

Probably exactly why he's been brought on. Balls of steel.

Krul guessed the right way 4/4 times so far

I do fancy Costa Rica here. So much more pressure on the Dutch. Costa Ricans have nothing to lose.

Almost!

Unbelievable must be at the end of his rope

TIMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!

Some goalkeepers just don't fancy penalty shootouts. I assume Cillessen is one of those.

HOLY FUCK

Costa Rica picking up a massive second wind from somewhere

Please go to pens

Smells like pelanties this. Unbelievable is going to have a seizure

I do agree that we wouldn't let Ben Arfa get away with a lot of the things he does if we had an actual good side that wasn't managed by Alan Pardew.

I mean yeah, those are out-and-out striker stats. Not even center forward stats.

So based on these stats, De Jong rarely dribbles and probably shouldn't be allowed to, rarely passes and almost never makes creative passes, doesn't defend, but shoots and scores alot. All of that from central midfield. Again, odd.

Three successful dribbles and one unsuccessful one.

Dribbles/Take-ons This is an attempt by a player to beat an opponent in possession of the ball. A successful dribble means the player beats the defender while retaining possession, unsuccessful ones are where the dribbler is tackled, Opta also log attempted dribbles where the player overruns the ball.
