  1. I wanted us to lose games when Pardew was winless in eight. Usually when a manager has a run like that, they’re sacked. But I don’t want us to lose games now. I’d rather we just stay in the Prem. That way I can watch us on TV every week. Guess I’m not so different from those who want to go to the stadium and “get away from their wife”.
  2. Was curious to see the differences between last year and this year's games against Arsenal at home. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/49223797 - 2019 https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/45456658 - 2018 This year we had 2% more possession(36% vs 38%). Same shots on target as last year 2 for us, 2 for them. So not freaking out yet. Think we're just plain better than some teams. Strikers will get firing. Hopefully Saturday 3pm.
  3. Is the question what player do you think you play like? I think i play like Luis Suarez. I have the same dogged style. I’m not particularly skillful but everything I do is technically sound. If I have the opportunity to shoot, I will. Play with my head up at all times. Utilize the toe poke fairly often. Just always trying to surprise the opposition with my movement. Really liked Suarez at the Copa America this past year. He’d just be shooting from anywhere. Taking the ball down on his chest and blasting it from 30 yards. Scored a toe poke today and someone said that they were embarrassed to have been scored on by me. I’m not the type of player to get on the ball and have a lot of touches. I’m just trying to score and win. Also the other team had the ball and I told the opposition player to pass back and he did. I’m a bastard on the field.

  5. Liverpool midfield of 08/09. Shoot like Gerrard, tackle like Macherano and long diagonals like Xabi Alonso.
  6. Totally forgot that ‘he doesn’t score in August’ nonsense. Get in big man.
  7. That run from Sterling was sublime. Shame it’s been taken back.
  8. I think we're gonna win. I honestly do. Arsenal are missing a lot of players - Ozil, Siad whatshisface, Pepe, some others. AFTV reckon their midfield is going to be Wilock and Xhaka. That's not great. Our players will be up for it. They've got a lot to prove. HTL.
  9. Salah goes for the most infuriating one twos.
  10. Aye was hoping he wouldn’t translate in the Prem but he’s really taken to it.
  11. Strongly recommend Mag TV cable box. Has every sports channel in the world. $78 and you’ll have free cable for life. https://www.amazon.com/BUILT-CABLE-REMOTE-POWER-ADAPTER/dp/B07DXFB2JR/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?adgrpid=56362272912&gclid=Cj0KCQjws7TqBRDgARIsAAHLHP6xE_CcFlBUk6pLV4Vqb_pDoKikTWZ83anHHUMNh1hUY6D6dYujFr4aAr7cEALw_wcB&hvadid=274706870345&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9004426&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=e&hvrand=6204971447616037776&hvtargid=kwd-300814327384&hydadcr=26738_9620530&keywords=mag+tv+box&qid=1565370551&s=gateway&sr=8-3
  12. Arsenal have had a great window.
  13. Yep. It’s imperative we go 4-3-3 especially against the weaker teams. What’s he gone pre season?
  14. Apparently bidding for Inaki Williams from Bilbao to replace him.
  15. True. He’s actually the midfielder that ends up in the most offensive positions.
  16. Charlie Austin would be perfect. Used similarly to Giroud at Chelsea.
  17. He does, right. I was quite impressed by his highlites. Looks very competitive. What videos are you looking at btw? The few out there seem to be from 4-5 years ago and from the Swedish league. Didn’t realize it was that long ago but yea that one.

  19. Player-coach. That ambition. Would kill DC United’s season. He’s been integral to everything good in that team. Edit: seeing it’s being talked about to be after the MLS season ends.
