Sounds promising.

Paco Jémez was a burly centreback and nowadays he is one of the most positive managers around. So yeah, it's pretty hard to tell. That said, Xavi will manage us some day, I have little doubt.

All the articles people post on here - childish grammar aside - seem to boil down to this: "XXXXX could happen. However, it could also not happen." Hard to get it wrong that way

Taylor Swift is a twig of a woman. If she wasn't famous you wouldn't notice her on the street.

That's a pretty big precedent.

Congratulations Lee, proving that you don't understand the definition of the word "boycott." Basically this piece condenses to "Some fans will boycott, other fans won't boycott. It's up to each fan's personal opinion." What a f***ing retard this guy is. Still no sign OF intelligent life in his body. Can't get past that random "OF" capitalization. Makes no sense at all, even if he wanted to stress that word Doesn't anybody proofread what he writes?

Nothing strange about that. He'd probably start for us.

Taylor Swift isn't remotely hot, as WAGs go. Although I believe St Ledger is the one being the WAG here.

Jémez has done such an amazing job at Rayo. Looks like he's leaving them at the end of the season, I'm looking forward to him having more resources to work with.

What happened with Defour?

I'm worried about brummie, so many goals so suddenly. It's like giving a bottle of bourbon to somebody who's been dry for years.

Atlético cruises past Real Sociedad at home, 2-0. Since Simeone's arrival, Atlético have had clean sheets in exactly 50% of their games.

Still remember when Ashley Cole almost crashed his car because Arsenal only offered him 50k/week.

Zidane has admitted Real Madrid are tracking him, too.

Fantastic.

Absolutely not, Sackpardew was a great campaign. It backed up its claims quite well and the slogans and actions were good and reasoned; it didn't came across as hysterical. Was the "we want a club that tries" banner part of it? I think it summed up the sentiment pretty well. The 5th place season was three years ago, followed by two pretty miserable seasons. People deserve to have fun watching football, the "know your place and don't complain" mentality in current football (extends to stuff like abusive ticket prices in spite of huge TV contracts) is poisonous It's always nice to see fans fighting against that.

People shouldn't really give much of a damn about how Pardew does for his new team. Bottom line is that he was crap for NUFC, he isn't here anymore and that's a good thing.

Don't give him ideas man, that's pretty feasible

Chygrynskiy and Kerrison say hi. Vermaelen says "Hi" while drinking my bourbon and fucking my GF.

I'm fine with him as third choice CB. It's just that paying €20m for a 31 year old backup is abysmal business.

Anyway, with this and his goal against Real Madrid, Mathieu has almost made his signing worthwhile. One of the most surprising things this season is the amount of goals we are scoring from deadball positions. We'd always been frankly useless at that.

I just can't get past the chrons style short sentences. all on the next line leading to feeling like you're reading a children's book by an idiot It's like a haiku.

Wish them all the luck. Hopefully something good can come out of putting Ashley under pressure. Good thing of getting rid of Pardew - besides the fact it was Pardew - is that he was Ashley's shield. Now he's gone.

Aye, not a chance Cracking header. VI knows the football gods hang out here. Smart dude. God is a magpie and He overcompensates in order to not be accused of favoritism.

No way we're winning this today. Absolutely ineffectual in the last third.
