  1. Captain Giroud, finally I make a shrewd decision. Though I made a last minute wildcard adjustment last week and dropped Ramsey. Of course.
  2. Much needed away win. And multiple goals, fancy that. Actually looked like a real football team. Credit to Pardew, he didn't fuck anything up this week.
  3. Cape Verde disqualified from CAF qualifying playoffs for fielding an ineligible player. http://espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1550727/tunisia-replace-disqualified-cape-verde-world-cup-playoffs?cc=5901

    Miami (well, South Beach) is awesome. In small doses. I would rather vacation locked-in one of those resorts in Jamaica than spend a week free in Miami.
  8. He is As far as fascist madmen go I suppose. My fascist madmen power rankings for this week. Hitler is up two spots after a N-O PR campaign to credit him for all the amazing things he accomplished. 1. Hitler (+2) 2. Di Canio (-1) 3. Mussolini (-1)
  9. Was the wrong man for the job from the start, nevermind. He brings stability. England won't often be embarrassed under Hodgson, but they'll not be sticking-it to many competitive teams (friendly wins against Italy and Brazil notwithstanding).
  10. That's just wrong. To be fair, Benteke aside, who would you want from their side? Apart from Paul Lambert. Doesn't really matter if we have better individual players, they play better as a team than we do.
  11. Agreed. Slot Remy at LW, bring Gouff off the bench late if Cisse still isn't clicking.

    Ouch. Nah I think Ronaldo's probably a chill dude in real life.

    Pretty ugly game. Don't much care though. Needed 3, got 3.
  14. Club side more than likely, international side not at all for me. Lampard has the edge in goals certainly but in his ten years at AC pirlo won an absolute shed load and I'd argue he was a massive contributor. I'd also argue he played a huge part in Juve's latest title wins. True but there are more ball playing replacement types than Lampard types for me. Plus swap the pair and Chelsea would be worser off for it purely in style terms during that period IMO. Lampard is a far, far better Nolan RE: the above. I'd agree with that, but I think it's wholly incorrect to suggest that Pirlos contribution to his team was less significant than lampard's IMO . But I agree that the box to box midfielder is a real rarity nowadays. As is the regista tbf. Not as prevalent certainly. It's what Cabaye could be if he's forced to play deep With the right personnel around him, he'd be very good there.
