  1. They're letting Payet play like how we should've let Hatem and Cabella play.
  2. It may seem that way from the outside, and it's a lot of money to spend, but it also revitalizes whole neighborhoods like Kanji said above. It spurs on economic growth in cities that really need it. Attached to some of these new stadiums are mixed use developments that bring in crazy development turning old un-safe parts of town in to highly sought after property. Also when you get a new stadium you're also in line to host things like the Superbowl or the All Star week for baseball which both bring in untold amounts of money to the city.
  3. Georgia Dome is 23 years old. There's stuff in my fridge older than that! But compared to a lot of the newer stadiums the facilities are terrible, which leads to: Because it totally is when there are stadiums like the new Cowboys stadium or others, even in other sports. You need a new stadium pretty frequently to keep up with the times, no one is going to want to play or go watch a game in a shithole when the town over has a state of the art new stadium.
  4. Had a great game today, fair play to the lad.
  5. He's so good at reading the game in the middle, popping out of no where to intercept passes when their CMs are going for that killer pass. Really an unsung hero. He does a lot of dirty work that doesn't get all the plaudits it should. I also love the way the ball just kind of pops off his foot. His passing range is great too which a lot of good off the ball movement, he's never hiding and always looking to be an outlet.
  6. I was really impressed with him on the ball today. I thought we showed ourselves really well today in the face of shitty reffing and being down to 10 players for 76 minutes of the match. We're a team again.
  7. Very pleased I'm in the eastern time zone for this one Just got home from work too. Quick nap and then it's match time!
  8. I'd obviously love more, but this is exactly where I'm at.
  9. Enough Gareth Keenan-esque bowl cuts for y'all in that one?
  10. if we're not signing someone we know is going to be good then i'd rather spend the remaining window getting rid of williamson, gouffran and obertan and going with taylor, colo, mbemba, dummet and lascelles for CB until january by which time we'll hopefully have found a contract loophole to exploit or the euro might be further on it's arse by then Both started last night. Not going anywhere.
  11. Looks fucking great, except for that Club Level crap that is on field level. Like your average American will be able to see over 6ft linemen on the sidelines.
  12. What match are you thinking would be? We're at home to the essentially possession winners of the league. We need a dude like SDJ in the squad.
  13. Hopefully the manager can ensure this doesn't happen going forward. Somehow I honestly don't see that being the case. I think we have a far more competent manager than Pardew now, who would've just put someone like Thauvin on and waited for a moment of magic. I hope McClaren has more in his plans for him than just that, which it seems like might be the case from his quotes.
  14. I hope it's more like: Krul Janmaat Mbemba Coloccini Haidara Anita Wijnaldum Perez SDJ Thauvin Mitrovic
  15. I think Sissoko has to go to get SDJ in to the match-day starting 11, unfortunately.
