  1. Cleverley, man. Sorry Froggy, I'm not intentionally picking on poor Tom but he looks woefully out of his depth. Completely ineffective in the past 2 games against good players.
  2. Begrudgingly they look a good team currently. Very solid, all working hard, and a striker bang in form. We'll see where they are in a couple of months though once these 1-0 wins have dried up.
  3. That's the core of it. Being in the CL regularly means you have more money meaning you should have a better and bigger squad to cope with league fixtures while being in the CL regularly. Simple cycle. It should be a pleasure to play so regularly.
  4. Yup. Amazing what happens when a good striker is given a proper chance in this league. He scores a lot of goals.

    I don't know what's going on but it's funny.
  6. He was excellent with the media with us IMO. Threw a hissy fit or 2 but nothing much out of the ordinary. Vast majority of the time he called it how he saw it, no messing around. Ask a stupid question get a stupid answer kind of attitude. This moaning about the fixtures etc is definitely far more heightened than it ever was at us. That said, a point worth making is his comments will be under the microscope more at Man Utd. I bet a fair few managers across the league will make similar complaints - irrespective of whether any have justification - during the course of the season, but they won't get picked up on as much.
  7. Fast becoming apparent Di Canio is nothing more than a showman with a distinct lack of managerial ability at this level.
  8. I'm a big fan of his but he has been poor so far. Generally I'm convinced he'll still do very well this season. But for FF, I'm having doubts. Got him myself, and with Chelsea next, it's tempting to get rid in a couple of weeks.

    Man they looked bad. O'Shea fucked their chances, though. Going along quite nicely at 1-1 until he took too many eccies.
  10. Er, how's that not a red card?
  11. A good header from a good striker.
  12. A manager emphasising a positive, forward-thinking, creative style of play will generally lead to this. It'll also often lead to shit defending given Palace's squad, but fair play.
  13. That's generally the blockbuster impact they have on lives.
  14. Whoever made the analogy about us getting the rohypnol, following her home, making sure there was no-one around, then ending up having a wank in the bush.... Yeah. We're still that.
  15. No reason to watch this shit now. Haha you yank dick! Quite.
  16. Not a clue why they haven't played Wickham more.
  17. 180 minutes, 35 shots, 0 goals. Dat possession.
