r0cafella Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11669/9914806 Good decision by Rodgers. Think he'll have a great season. Thought he looked excellent playing centrally at Villa. Very good replacement for Gerrard. Looks like Benteke is about to Join them too for his get out clause fee of £32.5 million. If finishing outside the top four is a good season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Cantona is and always will be a PL legend, he wasn't a great player, although he was very good, but he had this aura about him. I know a few proper Man Utd fans who would have him top of their best PL player of all-time easily. He was to Man Utd in terms of transforming a top side int a title winning side what KK was to us when he joined as a player, i.e. he galvanised everyone around him to perhaps over achieve!

If you ever listen to any ex Man Utd's best 11 they'll always put Cantona in it. They always mention how he would come early to practice and stay late to work on fitness and shooting. This got all of them to do the same thing. He was a true leader and probably the difference in us not winning the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only his ban had of been for a few months longer :-( I remember his comeback match as we were on the coach coming back from Everton after we beat them 3-1 and it was on the radio!

Wallsendmag Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Just been watching this. Great memories and my first season as a season ticket holder. The most I've ever celebrated a goal and possibly the best atmosphere I've experienced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

newsted Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 NWOAP tbh. Sunday morning in Lpool the missus decided to browse for handbags, so natch I said "fuck off, I'll be out here smerkin a tab." Unfortunately she'd replaced all my clobber with Everton-coloured tops, I swear she's the best troll in the world, I have never owned one. So this little old lady sidled up and said "You look like an Everton fan. My Uncle Bill used to play for them. They called him 'Dixie'. Bye." And I couldn't help myself, I grabbed her gently and said everyone knows about him, he's a legend. She just said "Yes. Bye." I really wanted to talk to her and say that's not the most important thing about you, you're a separate person, I mean being Dixie Dean's niece is a conversation-stopper, but you've lived your own life, tell me about that. But I had a tab on, she was heading off, the missus was in the shop, the mobile went off and the cousins' hen party were in a nearby pub and wanted us, we didn't know where stepd and her lad were, so my decision was to be responsible and now I'll never know. Fuck's sake. And it seems I am a possible lunatic. Off my tits. Cheers, lads. Life, eh? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
