  1. Juve would get the most milage out of him.
  2. Really liked the 09-10 Man Utd team. Rooney at the peak of his powers and Valencia supplying him some of the hardest struck crosses you’ll ever see. Absolutely loved when they smashed AC Milan 4-0 at Old Trafford. Park Ji Sung shackelling Pirlo who was pissed off with Ferguson for doing so. Park even scored in that game. Nani, Fletcher, Carrick were great that season. Bielsa’s Athletico played some sintillating football. Absolutely wiped the floor with Man Utd. I always want the English sides to do well but I couldn’t help but applaude that side. Martin O Neil’s Villa side with Young, Agbonlahor, Milner and Petrov were a great team who didn’t care who they were playing, they’d press from the start and never stop running. One of my favorite ever games was a 4-4 with Chelsea. Shaun Maloney was hella underrated in that side and should have stayed longer. Dude is so weird. Didn’t celebrate any goals. They were the team that forced Mourinho to quit at Chelsea. Their downfall was prioritising top four over the Europa League. Genuinly think they had a chance to win it. Fulham’s 2010 Europa League team was entertaining as all hell. Zamora, Dempsey, Davies, freaking Zoltan Gera. Wigan under Martinez were entertaining to watch, too. Swear Emerson Boyce was a really good ball playing defender. They could go toe to toe with anyone. They’d could get spanked but they could also pull off huge upsets. The Chile national team of the last six years or so is one of the best national teams I’ve ever seen. Super collective. They really deserved to win the Confederations Cup. That would have been the icing on the cake.
  3. Quite the picture you paint there, Bimpy. but do agree with you. Unnatural position is an awful term. Making yourself bigger is much better and makes sense.
  4. Their starting 11 looks pretty woeful too. Ashley Young making a return to the right wing at the age of 33.
  5. 1: You are given a 1-0 this season, which game do you chose to win? (Has to be a league game): Liverpool away 2: You are given 1 club to be relegated from the Premier League, who do you chose?: Wolves 3: You are given one club to win the Champions League, who do you chose? (Club has to be in the Champions League): Tottenham 4: Would you rather win the Europa Leauge of the FA Cup?: Uefa Cup 5: One club to be promoted from the Championship?: Leeds 6: Who would you prefer to win the SPL, Celtic or Rangers?: Rangers 7: You are asked for 1 manager to be sacked?: Marco Silva. 8: A club other than the club you support to win their respective league?: Athletic Bilbao - club other than Newcastle you’d like to see win the FA Cup - Everton(Don't want any other team that have been in the PL shorter than us to win the trophy tbh - so would take Villa or Spurs in this category. Watford can get fucked. So to Palace, Southampton, etc)
  6. Spurs full stregnth. No messing around from Poch.
  7. Aye. Guess he doesn’t do too much. Son’s a good shout. Totally forgot about him.
  8. My team of the year so far Ederson Doherty Van Dijk Vertonghen Robertson Sterling Pogba Eriksen Mane Aguero Jimenez
  9. klopp’s not helped, like. Usually manager’s say “we take it one game at a time” but I think Klopp has been talking about the title since the end of last season. Might be better to be coy in these things. Could relieve some pressure. Had my tv on bein the whole night and Turkish football has been on. Hugo Rodallega still plays football. He’s playing for Trabzonspor. He’s their number seven.
  10. Think Arsene Wenger is the biggest bottle job in PL history. should have at least won one title in the last 10 years. 10-11 the 4-4 killed them. Were in control for large parts of the 13-14 season but got thrashed numerous times. 15-16 could have easily been theirs. Bottled the Suarez transfer, bottled the Kante transfer and so many other moves that would have made their squad better.
  11. In 13/14 it felt like it was now or never. Feels the same again this year. Feel like if they don’t win, someone key could leave like Suarez did.
  12. Liked Chelsea under Ancelotti. That season they had Drogba, Malouda and Anelka up front was pretty fun to watch.
  13. I said it last year. Southampton if manahed right have the ability to be a contender to get into the top 6-8. If they are manahed incorrectly then they will always be someone in the relegation fight who you wouldn’t really want to be fighting against. It would be in our own interest to want them down as everyone else down there will likely not do anything more than fight survival until their time is up. Southampton will always pose a danger or completion to us, no matter what our battle is. Dunno, like. Feel like their identity has been ripped out of them by Liverpool. If they did’t have Ings, dunno who would get the goals. Would love Redmond and Bertrand. Michael Obafemi is an interesting prospect. Built like an absolute tank and only 18. Has a goal this season. Cardiff’s Victor Cammerasa’s name is mentioned a lot during games. He’s on loan from Betis. 24, Midfielder. Does have three goals this season. Brighton have a lot of good attacking players. Izquierdo is a speedster. Knockaert would be a useful on the periphery type player. Big fan of Guðmundsson from Burnley. Whips a great ball in. Excellent technique and always puts a shift in
  14. The moment Kennedy came on, he instantly clicked with Almiron playing him down the left channel at the first attempt. I like Ritchie but in this new system of pace and power, I’d rather Kennedy in his place. If Ritchie’s to play, I’d have him in Yedlin’s place.
