Best league in the world, can't compete with the Greeks and the Portuguese but still the best overall. You can't beat it.

arselol

They'll be giving the daft fuckers the right to vote next.

This year's FIFA's got girls in it.

That's not who I am like Certainly applies to some of the mugs in our support and even on this board though. At least they'll have enjoyed Sammy Ameobi in his place for a season though.

That is fucking amazing.

Have caught a few random Bundesliga games recently and the entertainment is streets ahead of the Premier League like. Most teams trying to play football the right way.

Fucking hell Hans. Disappointed.

It's fucking incredible. As Garth Crooks says, how the fuck can people call Pardew shite one minute and trust him completely when it comes to his patently dodgy treatment of our most gifted player the next. Accusing someone of a lack of graft goes a long way it seems.

Sounds bad but if we're to lose this then hopefully it won't be the usual hammering, as we'll need to push on after this game with our confidence intact. The games after Man City will define our season, if we put a run together as we should then we'll be fine but otherwise we'll be in serious bother.

Got a new contract last season too 'kin 'ell!

Mannn he looks like he's in fantastic form. 2 brilliant goals and looked sharp in the build-up to the other goals.

Did the same under Pardew did Ayoze http://www.reactiongifs.us/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/not_aware_waynes_world.gif

It's good that he's forced his way into the side with his quality pretty early on, it took Ben Arfa 3 or 4 months of cameo appearances sometimes. Hopefully he's a mainstay now. Love watching him.

Hard to argue with the t***, apart from the bit about deserving a point. Reminds me of this post by tmonkey, the Pardew bit aside: Play well against big clubs in televised matches, get noticed and earn that big-money move. Which is why many of our players are rarely likeable. I agree there seems to be a difference in mentality but it's just as much about us not having a clue how to unlock a defence when the opponent sits deep and the onus is on us IMO.

Mandhandled the poor fucker twice.

Mike Williamson didn't have a complete shocker in a defeat versus lower league opposition, hold the front page and get praising.

Woff! Ooh! What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, say it again.

TCD as next MD please, just to get the inevitable out of the way.

We're a generation of men raised by women. I'm wondering if another woman is really the answer we need or whether it's actually more about gegenpressing.

Not one person wants passing for passing's sake when the team don't look comfortable with it, the movement off the ball needs to be right so we're getting ourselves into good positions and playing penetrative and effective football, rather than having to constantly play it around the back 4. Like you say, yet again it's an argument in TCD's own head. It's like a fucking shit version of Fight Club.

We didn't pass it aimlessly though. That's my point. We were attacking teams. Both fast and direct teams- forward passes not long balls, although we weren't scared of getting the ball in behind a defence quickly. That's good football. ATTACKING. Creating chances. Moving the ball forward at pace. The most defensive side under those managers had Speed - Jenas in midfield. Gary Speed always wanted to make a forward pass, he was forward thinking. can i find Robert, Alan or Bellamy. Not incessantly back to Titus. No shit. Everything you're saying is fucking obvious, so why the fuck you saying it at such irritating and pompous length?

This is it. I said it weeks ago. Every fucking thread. From my POV he appears to be impossible to wind up to the degree he calls me a cunt, he's my kryptonite so far.
