FA Cup Thread 2012/13 - Real World Football - FM24/25 Update

Yeah, I didn't mean he fucked up the peno, it's just when the camera showed him before the match it always strikes me that there's gonna be a major decision in the game

Brighton being knocked out by a really attractive gay icon. Ironic.

A really attractive gay icon?
Are you trying to say something?

He was on the front cover of a gay magazine in France.

I don't find myself sexually aroused by Giroud, but I really do think I like him more because he's attractive. Make of that what you will.

Giroud's attractive in a boring way. Like a TV actor.

He fucked up a few times but luckily it made no difference to the outcome.

He's a phenomenal prick yet still manages to not be the most unlike-able player at United.

Evra's amazing how many players have played a Champions League Semi Final with a lump of chicken in a wound?

Yeah, exactly.

Also, I'm certain the ITV commentator just mistook Sczesney for Kuzsuack.

And wtf has happened with my sig? Haha

What?

And yes - I was watching that and he said Kuzsckak made the save when it was the Arsenal keeper making one.

Talking of ITV, it says a lot they had a genuinely interesting cup tie in the form of Norwich-Luton which ultimately provided the day's - possibly the decade's - biggest shock, and instead they showed a mediocre all Premiership clash that Sky & ESPN have both already passed on twice this season. Not as bad as ESPN picking Man U-Fulham when they're showing it again next weekend in the Premiership, mind...

For the second leg at Stamford Bridge, Monaco were guarding a 3-1 advantage. “After 10 minutes Jimmy-Floyd Hasselbaink cut my ankle,” recalls Evra. “It was really open, you could see the bone. The doctor signalled for a substitution. I just grabbed his hands and said, ‘If I come out [off], I kill you’. He made me a big bandage and the blood was pouring out, I still have the scar. I finished the first half and he said, ‘Pat, you need to come out because it can break’.

“I said, ‘This is a semi-final, I don’t care, I play with one leg. I don’t care’.”

Evra rolls up a trouser leg, removing his sock to display the broad, ragged scar at the top of his stronger foot. After inflicting the first of several Champions League heartbreaks on Abramovich, the left-back had the flesh pulled back together with nine stitches, then again refused to plead injury. “It was very painful but I played with a meat. I was putting a chicken as protection,” he explains matter of factly.

A chicken? Is the playful Frenchman taking advantage of his questioner? “Seriously, I swear it’s true. When the doctor saw that technique he said, ‘What are you doing?’ I remember I was going to the butcher and saying, ‘I want one piece, but small’. I know some people can say, ‘Yeah, people don’t have food, but Pat he puts meat in the boots’, but it helped me a lot. I couldn’t feel the ball too much but it protected me a lot. I played one month with the meat in my boots.”

The month included Monaco’s defeat in the Champions League final to a Porto team managed by Jose Mourinho. “The most funny thing is, after the game, the meat was cooked. Not ready to eat, but a little bit cooked.”

It's a novel way to play through the pain barrier, plus I suppose it helps prepare the chicken to standards KFC can be happy with
