  1. Thought he was a pussy for moving his head out of the way for Sweeden's goal personally.
  2. Yea Firmino was absolutly horrible. Poor poor poor. Bein are ripping into him.
  3. Funny how the two jobbers he sent on missed their pens.
  4. Thiago Silva is an idiot. Paraguay deserved that. Theyve been the better team
  5. These tackles man. Feel like a legs gonna be broken tonight.
  6. Totally Agree. Just remembered that kick off earlier this season when he hit the crossbar. He's capable of things like that.
  7. I liked Ba a lot more, too. I expected him to score against whoever we were playing and most times he did. He scored some spectacular goals here and they'd pop out of nowhere like the one against Spurs. Wasn't expecting that at all. Remy was good but he was injured a lot and only really scored against poor opposition. Also, he got three braces for us - Stoke(9 men) Cardiff and Hull so his ratio doesn't mean much when you take this into consideration.
  8. I'm not panicing just yet. Last summer we signed the Ajax captain and Internationals in Cabella and Janmaat. The De Jong deal came out of nowhere and usually a lot of our deals do. Cabaye, Sissoko, Gouffran weren't reported much in the press and the bam we signed them. I feel that we'll sign some quality players. No need to go shopping in the Championship just yet. We're much better than that.
  9. I disagree. I thought Hughes was pretty poor last game. He didn't use the ball well at all. He tried to force his short passing game when there were better options available. Also missed a guilt edged chance. Way too much hesitation in him for this stage I feel.
  10. Well we looked best 442 when Kane and Ings were up front together in the last game.
  11. More on this. Why would they vote him that? He's looked good everytime I've seen him.
  12. I like the way we're playing. The team looks comfortable.
  13. ESPN Deportes/HD broadcasting this for fellow Americans. Our midfield isn't as bad as I first thought. Will Hughes has plenty of experience even at 20. Ward Prowse is a beast any time I see him for England youth and decent for Southampton. He also has a great set piece on him. Nathan Redmond just had a great season for Norwich. I've been seeing his name linked with a few decent clubs. Its comforting knowing that Kane has 8 in 11 and Berahino has 10 in 11. We could realistically win this competition. I'm getting my hopes up, guys.
  14. Can't even be mad at the guy for that.
  15. He was shit. He just seemed to miss every chance that came his way.

    England

    We were awful in the first half. So slow just like every other England team. The second half was a huge improvement. Henderson was better at RB than in midfield. I think he was involved in all the goals. I thought Sterling played well, too. He has the quality to cause chaos and stretch defenses. Rooney really needs to work on his finishing. He should have had at least two today. I wasn't pleased when I saw Wilshere's name in the team sheet but I was dead wrong. Two incredible goals. The second being the best goal I've seen in God knows how long. Maybe that Joe Cole goal against Sweeden was the last good one I saw. Great performance from him. He really needs to stay fit this season. Walcott, too. He's someone I feel has the a strong belief in his own ability and can score when it matters.
  17. Liked how excited he got about Solano. Excellent finish for that equalizer.
  18. Mascherano is world class, mate.
  19. Xavi is Chameleon Eyes, Ronaldo is the Dark Invader. He's got a lot more. Can't think of them right now but they're hilarious.
  20. Some "highlites" from his last three years with Boro 2003-2004 League cup Beat Man Utd at Old Trafford 3-2 2004-2005 Seventh place uefa Cup round of 16. 2005-2006 uefa Cup final FA cup semis League Cup QF Beat Man Utd 4-1 Beat Arsenal 2-1 beat Chelsea 3-0
  21. Abeid and Aarons too in their brief appearances. I'd argue that Cabella was better than him too, and Anita showed more promise in his last two games of the seasons than Colback has ever done. My word. Are you blind?
  22. How many of our players are average or below average? How come he gets so much hate? Considering he's played under Sunderland coaches and Pardew/carver, lets see how he does under a "proper coach". Everyone else seems to get that treatment.
  23. He wouldn't get in the team ahead of Kieran Westwood? You think a manager wouldn't want a player who scored four goals and registered six assists through out the season? Look at the teams above us. liverpool - Joe Allan, Lucas Everton - James McCarthy, Gareth Barry West Brom - Yakob, Fletcher, Gardner crystal Palace - Jedinak, McCarthur Etc. He contributed a lot more than most of these players. Like someone said, he did a lot more than Cabella and De Jong this season and gets 10 times the hate. It's cause he played for Sunderland. That has to be the only reason. Cabella cost 12 million, scored once and got two assists yet I never see his thread bumped to say how much you hate him.
