  1. He was frustrating as hell in the final third. Very good at his role though.
  2. I don't mind Pulis. He has WBA, a team that would usually be struggling, in a high place in the league. I think the league needs a few managers like him, those who play to their team's strengths. It gives character to the PL. Better that trying to outplay better opposition and getting stuffed.
  3. Wilshere was always injured for Arsenal but has played almost every game for Bournemouth this season. I wonder why that is.
  4. Anytime I watch Hull play, Harry Maguire seems to stands out. Even in defense, he's got an attacking instinct. I've always admired how Everton signed Baines and Jagielka from poor teams for low prices and have gotten a lot out of them over the years. This could be a similar type deal.
  5. I'm sure Watford will give all the foreign ones on that list a chance in the PL.
  6. Is Lahm injured or something? He's played quite a lot of games this season and looks just as good as he always has. I'm surprised by the announcement and heard Bayern are, too.
  7. I'd love for Newcastle to have one. The Arsenal channel has actually got the pundits attention. Usually the pundits have no idea what the fans actually think and ignore the fans. They use cliches to describe us and everyone else. The channel does a good job of getting a range of reactions and don't try to have an agenda. It's basically a loud in your face forum when you think about it with all the characters they have. They're making a difference. This week I heard Rio, Ian Wright and Neville talking about them. I feel like those guys don't remember that we came second twice and were finishing in the top four in the 2000s. They say we should be happy finishing 17th and proud of it as that's where we're usually around. There's probably money in it, too. Youtube sponsorships, merchandise, etc. Looks like The True Geordie is doing big things. He probably does it full time now.
  8. Someone should sign Naby Keita. He's very dynamic and decisive. If I was to compare him with someone, maybe Modric? I hope he leaves Leipzig.
  9. Commentator just called Pochettino MoPo.
  10. How many Italians have actually thrived in the PL?
  11. Cliche but he really is Lampard esque with his runs. His movement is fantastic.
  12. I feel like Howe will be the next Arsenal boss. If he is, I hope they get someone inbetween as Wenger has some huge shoes to fill. Despite the last 10-12 years of Wenger's run, he's done a lot for the club.
  13. What a shit decision. Totally ruined the game.
  14. The Palace owner looks like a movie villain.
  15. Sublime goal. So good I updated by facebook status to talk about it.
  16. What position does Antonio from West Ham play? I feel like I've seen him in a number of positions this season.
  17. Zlatan has had an awful six minutes.
  18. Seriously. Not a single stand out today.
  19. Astroblack

    Nicky Butt

    He was shit. That goal against Spurs and that bicycle kick were his crowning achievements.
  20. I was just about to post the complete opposite. He has gone awol in the past but he's been involved regularly tonight and has been very tidy in possession too. He's a completely different player now. Total passenger IMO. Seems to have lost all of his attacking attributes. I'm not sure his teammates trust him in the final third, either.
