Arsenal, Man U, Chelsea and Liverpool with always be 'The Big 4' no matter how far some of them fall away, Man City have bought their way into that.

 

Depressing but unlikely to ever change.

 

How do you think Chelsea got there? :lol: Liverpool are no longer classed as being in the 'big 4' anymore, in my opinion.

I've wittered on here before that for better or worse I live five minutes away from Old Trafford. After the games today, I wanted to collect my winnings from Ladbrokes so walked passed the stadium after their game v Wigan just before 6pm.

 

In a nutshell: fucking weird. Endless scores of Japanese/Korean tourists with replica shirts and massive cameras, loads of foreign accents with one Scandanavanian stopping me for directions, bored looking dads with kids, blokes brandishing megastore bags and criminally friendship scarves. Best of all, THREE full kit wankers (one I noted had proper AstroTurf trainers on too :lol:)

 

It's daft to say that Man Utd fans are all glory hunters as there's a hell of a lot of locals support them (the hoodies and bad haircuts give them away) but fucking hell there's an awful lot of muppets turn up. Unlike any other home supports in the country and that's not a good thing either.

 

Oh and their new home kit is a complete mess. Tablecloth.

The captain of a Premier League club has called for football’s top stars to have their wages capped.

 

Reading skipper Jobi McAnuff believes astronomical salaries are ­contributing to families being priced out of watching ­football and youngsters becoming money-obsessed. “I can see why a Wayne Rooney should get a big bonus because of the amount of shirts he sells,” said McAnuff.

 

“But if you’re talking about £200,000-a-week, that’s ­ridiculous. Who needs that amount of money? Surely, someone will say ‘that’s enough’.

 

“We’re on the verge of ­getting out of control and we’re ­starting to lose a bit of reality.

 

“The most popular question I get from kids is ‘what car do you drive?’ What happened to them wanting to know what it was like to make your debut?

 

“Football is getting too ­expensive for fans and fans make football. Tickets for our game at Chelsea were £50 each. I know lots of people who couldn’t afford that.” McAnuff has shown his commitment to inner city causes by setting up an ­academy for youngsters in Tottenham, where he grew up. He aims to help kids from tough backgrounds make the grade in sport.

He's spot on

I like the "How highly do you rate him?" idea Beren. Personally think it would be worth a thread with a little poll, maybe with the thread title and player changing weekly.

 

:thup: Sounds good.

 

So long as we never pick Defoe as the player to discuss.

May I recommend you start the first thread on Il Rei di Roma  :snod: , I love him but he seems a player like Ibrahimovic that always divides opinion in this country.
