You serious? Squirrel? For real? Tell me what it is then. Armadillo or however it's spelled. Ok. Thought that piece behind was its tail!.

What animal is the mascot supposed to be? Squirrel?

About 4:45 apparently. Had feared it was longer.

The smug smirk of his. I don't know I'm just talking nonsense to pass this awful segment. Has the better looking lass though. Jelly.

Erm, when's the draw proper?

Which part of him looks like Beckham?

Phew, that's over.

Ah Blatter shows up. Correct channel.

Not sure if this is even the right channel.

Not the first time you've retorted to name-calling after being called out for your BS. I've nothing against hardworking wingers/team but to think that's the only solution to Debuchy being exposed on his attacks is just short-sighted. Dominating possession at the level of Barca and Arsenal at 57%? Might as well say 51% possession impresses you as much.
-
Fellaini in an advanced role behind Chicarito then?

I also thought they prefer double awards purely going by what somebody said tbf.

Evra's has been a fine defender, Rafel's a good one. In a team of the season I read they had Valencia/Welbeck in the wide spots. Two very hardworking players. This only further demonstrates my point. Everton have the other example I used - have wide players so good going forward they force their opponents back. I suggested that as a possibility but as we've seen this season, that won't work. Everton dominate possession this season. Spurs do dominate possession and have the most athletic right side in the league. I don't know what youre trying to say. We play a 4-4-2. We don't have a spare man to drop in defence. If anything it demonstrates you need a hardworking team. SAF has always demanded good work ethics for the whole team and not just the wingers in isolation. I have nothing against workhorses but again you speak as if that's the only viable option. You talk of Barca and Arsenal dominating possession, I give you that. And then you mention Everton and Spurs dominating possession in the same breath. http://i.imgur.com/dSTnS3s.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/2chD4Fd.png Aye, dominating possession. We do not play a simple 4-4-2. Sissoko often drifts into the middle when Debuchy/we are attacking. That's 3 players in the middle affording protection when needed. Even in a flat 4-4-2, you could always demand a FB holding his defence when the other is attacking. Nee idea why you think hardworking wingers are the be-all-and-end-all, discounting all other alternatives without proper thought. You always loathe to concede ground in your footballing opinions no matter how good/bad they are.

Probably counted the number of games left they could possibly get a result from.

Man Utd season 12/13 - Evra 34 league apps, Rafael 28. Their options when Rafael is unavailable is either your CBs (Smalling or Jones) or Valencia as they do not have a 2nd specialist RB. Spurs, Everton play with 2 attacking FBs. They don't dominate possession. Guess you have no issue about Tiote/Anita dropping back to be an auxiliary defender then.
-
Tiote or Anita could drop back to cover as an auxiliary defender when Debuchy goes on the attack. Especially Anita who has had experience playing that role to great effect at Ajax. One of the FBs could be asked to stay back when other attacks. Man Utd and Arsenal are two of those teams that play with 2 attacking FBs. We could do the same with some adjustments, not that I am comparing us at the same level here. All these require a change in teamplay so you won't need to bring in someone not in our books.
-
Didn't really take it seriously when someone mentioned they like their double awards but am now fully convinced that's the case now.
-
You must not have read my earlier posts regarding the alternatives before jumping into the debate then. Using Pardew as a get-out card now.

Director of the Year to go with his 3 MOTY awards.
