Ended 4-1 to Hamburg. Here's the incident I was talking about.

And back then:

Great tackle. Clearly got the ball.

1. Is a bit of a myth, he was never an awful defender. Just a little rash, still is occasionally.
2. true.

Rash, and his positional play was poor last season, he used to get caught out a fair amount.

He's improved massively now, and he looks much more comfortable playing for Man Utd.

How does that look for a laptop, for £629? From PCSpecialist so was going to get it on finance for bout 20 quid a month, then pay the rest of when I go to uni in September, but not sure if the spec is worth the price?

Looks decent to me but I'm not great with stuff like this. In response to your earlier question, theres a website that Slash linked me to in the laptop thread that I created and on there there is a decent Lenovo/Asus laptop for under 300 notes.

I'd go further.

I'd have Messi and Ronaldo out in front.

Then a bracket of Iniesta, Xavi, RVP, Cavani, Falcao etc...

Then a third one of the likes of Neymar, Bale, Wilshere and so forth.

I think it's a little premature to put Bale in with the likes of those who have achieved so much more in the game than him.

I'd probably drop Cavani down one level.

Not sure about Carrick, Cleverley & Wilshere being defensive enough. Maybe Jones or Rodwell in at DMC if they ever get fit and ready. (Behind Wilshere and Cleverley)

Joey Barton.

Messi and Ronaldo are in their own league. I'd class Bale in the next bracket down, along with the likes of Falcao and van Persie.

I think you're just about spot on. Bale's world class, as are the others, but Messi and Ronny are out of this world.

I'm hearing that with the PS4 & Xbox 720, the validation for a game will be on an account, not a particular console. Sort of like how Steam works. Talk is though that with the Xbox 720 you will need a constant internet connection, ie games wont play if you are offline. Sucks.

Bale would need to drag Tottenham to the Premier League title and the Champion's League final, scoring 40-odd goals in the process to be anywhere near Cristiano Ronaldo. Stelling is either an attention whore or a fuckwit.

Not sure you can compare that Man Utd team with Spurs team now. For a start, United had Rooney and Tevez; Spurs have Defoe and Adebywhore.

Best game of indoor tonight.

We were losing 6-3 at half time because one or two of our players have fragile minds, they just try and do shit themselves, like trying to force play when they can play an easy pass, then lose possession and won't defend. We won the game 9-8 in the second half after a huge turnaround in attitude, fucking great result considering this team beat us last year in the final.

So you ate 2 domino's pizzas then played football?

Animal.

What's this I hear about Sony patenting new technology that puts a code into every PS4, and every disc for the PS4, which will mean that discs can only be played on one device, only, ever? This means that if you buy a physical game, put it into your machine, it'll only ever work on your PS4 and never on anyone else's. This will kill pre-owned games and physical renting of games, though I guess irrelevant if you only download games.

Apparently the new Xbox will have always-online DRM as well, so that's crap if you have a weak connection.

Read this about Xbox, not Playstation though.

You have to activate a game on a machine, so no swapping games, preowned games.

Not sure what happens if your console dies aswell.

Haha. Obviously I was just baiting Carroll, and it worked quite well.

Carra didnt really come good until he was 25 odd and Hyypia/Henchoz left, but he and Stevie have carried Liverpool (with the exception of a couple of players; Torres/Suarez) for the past decade.

Such a stupid point. As if he was the only defender that does that, nice bait though. He's 35 as well, no longer has the legs to cope with the demands of the Premier League, especially at CB.

He never had the legs!

Don't think the intention was to turn you on.

Erm yes. Anne Hathaway to Man City.

Carragher is retiring at the end of season. What a man.

Pussied out because he's not first choice anymore?

There's only so far that shirt pulling and getting away with blatant fouls will get you.

We're not going to acknowledge the clear racism up there then...super.

He's a Bury fan (?). Its to be expected.

I guess its ok to only be racist to certain races.

You mean you wouldn't? Wow, your standards must be high

Not particularly. You wouldnt be impressed with some of the lasses I've been with but she is too skinny for me and her features are not in proportion to each other.
