:lol: I say this a lot but Tiote in this squad would have been fucking extinction level. Tiote under Howe? Tiote?! Motherfucker, man.

 

Loved Tiote me. He got a lot of criticism for trying to be too much of a footballer instead of just winning it and giving the simple pass, but Pardew didn't exactly encourage passing football.

I may be misremembering but wasn't a lot of that on Pardew? I swear I recall him trying to make him a bit of a jack of all rather than leaving him to what he did best.

He bigged him up, but then didn't really allow his teams to play football anyway. The term hoofball was invented during Pardew's era let's not forget. Tiote wasn't brilliant, but when he was actually in a team which had proper footballers around him like Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Ba and Cisse etc, he had an outstanding season.

I seem to remember Pardew saying he wanted Tiote to be ‘our Essien’ or words to that effect. He was an absolute boss as an out and out DM and keeping it simple. Shock that Pardew didn’t notice this and get the best out of him.

Sort ya head out

What the fuck ya on about? Fucking shite pass from tonali putting him under pressure.

Im talking about all the needless snide tackles he does when unnecessary, leading to pointless yellow cards. Only a matter if time until he gets 2 yellows and a red. That's what Im on about jack j.

Well according to the Liverpool Echo, the  clause makes it easy for them to buy Bruno now whereas before there was not much they could do when Newcastle said he was not for sale.

 

Having proved they were willing to spend £100m+ on Caicedo and having plenty of money left from last Summer’s transfer business plus the fact they pay higher wages, they are of the opinion if Liverpool still want him they will get him.

??  Not a chance he goes to the dippers! It’s us or Real. He’s in love with us. He has roots down now with his family. He is living his dream. We are the club that would be too hard to leave because of the ♥️ factor. It’s a thing ? We are growing, he’s growing with us. I’ll just enjoy the crazy impassioned loon “ balling” it for us.

That rag is obsessed with us since the takeover, only one club Bruno leave’s us for and that’s Real Madrid in my opinion.

 

Think it’ll take the scousers a couple of more seasons to fully sink in that times have changed.

That club and paper are such hypocrites. If they fucking hate our oil money so much, why would they want to buy a player that willingly came here and bought into us so much, fell in love with us. Their morals are so disjointed it's unbelievable. I can't quite believe the audacity of it TBH.

Would be funny to see what they would say if Qatar bought them.

As an owner of several questionable tattoos, he really needs to slow down on the collection of questionable tattoos. 

I don’t have any tattoos, part of it is due to thoughts about whether I’d question it in years to come and part of it is a personal aesthetic thing. For you, is it just that you question the designs or the association of the design to a thing from the past? Or just something else entirely?

Not that I necessarily now do, but when I first start getting tattooed there wasn't much thought behind them.

 

I've certainly got tattoos that do have meaning behind them, but I'm not a believer in tattoos needing to have a meaning, so back then I was very much 'I like the look of that. I'll get that', which was a mindset I had to cover an entire arm. 

 

Time goes by, and I certainly don't regret them, but I felt like I outgrew them which is a hard thing to try and explain in writing. 

 

Like if I could start over, or give advice to someone wanting to get tattooed, it would be to try and somewhat plan out what you want to get. Yes (and I say this as someone who has blacked out their entire arm) cover ups are possible, but it's so much easier getting it right the first time.
