Who the fuck is this guy?

I'm concerned that you're going to be a father.

Honestly don't think Ronaldo or Messi could touch this guy at his peak.

He'll be under a lot more pressure at Celtic though. If they don't win the league he's failed and if they get thumped in Europe it won't look good at all. Me and the Irish lad at work spoke about Keane leaving for it and both agreed it wouldn't be the right job for him, I'm glad he's stayed with the Irish setup and can learn from O'Neill, he'll be better for it in the long run I think.


How can he not win the league?

It couldn't be any more of a one horse league.

Europe is where he has to prove himself

They're not missing the game, they're doing it during a 3 minute water break.

The difference between the Gerrard and Scholes quotes is that all the Scholes quotes talk about him being the best, whereas all Gerrards say he's one of the best.

It was more the fact that it's a hell of a first 11 considering they were all overlooked.

4/5 of them could probably walk straight into the England first 11.

This World Cup is kind of the perfect opportunity to take plenty of youngsters and just see how it goes, no ones expecting us to do well so nothing to lose really.


Nothing to lose? It's the World Cup for fucks sake. Everything every national team has been doing for the past 2 years (even 4) has been leading upto this.

You take your best players and do whatever is possible to get as far as you can in what is the biggest tournament on earth and the pinnacle of a footballers career, whether you're Brazil, England or North Korea.

I'd actually say it's the worst possible time to be taking plenty of youngsters.

All I got from that is that Mourinho calls a 2x double winner a specialist in failure. Sweet man.

What's relevant is this season. And Mourinho's won fuck all by spending 80m+.


If all that's relevant is this year, why are you talking about Wenger being a 2x double winner from over 12 years ago?

Moyes has actually went after decent players.

Mata, Thiago, Fabregas, Herrera. He's just inept and not able to use them.

Fellaini could even be good under a half decent manager.

Nah, he's talking bollocks.

Toure has had tonnes of acclaim. He was purchased for 24 million pounds, is one of the best paid footballers in the world, is up for EPL Player of the year and is constantly talked about as one of the best midfielders in the world.

Drogba, Essien, Wanyama, Bony, Salah, Mikel, Eto'o and tonnes more have won lots of individual and team awards and been recognised. For every African player who is underrated you could name countless non-africans who are also underrated

How the fuck can you say Eto'o and Drogba haven't had acclaim? Both have been transferred for tens of millions of pounds, been some of the best paid footballers ever and have won countless awards.

African players generally don't get as much recognition as most of them aren't that good, which is what you would expect from any third world country with very limited training and coaching facilities.

'Regular play' is 99% of the game though. Lambert wouldn't be taking free-kicks or penalties during normal games, the only time he would is during a penalty shoot-out.

You can't take someone to the world cup for the small chance he'll be needed for a penalty shoot-out. And that's assuming they even have a sub left to make after 120 minutes.

Carroll's not very good, but he offers something different.

There's going to be times when you're chasing the game and need to just chuck a big guy upfront.

The normal shirt is the same price as the rest, just Nike have added a more expensive option which is the same as the one the team will actually wear (compared to the replicas they usually sell).

Media going mental over nothing.

And if all Levy wanted was a good bank account he wouldn't have spent 110m in the summer, plus all the agent fee's, signing on fees and wages that went with that.

If I remember rightly, Spurs fans were ecstatic with all their signings when the season was starting.

There's loads of managers that could be possible in the summer. Van Gaal, Simone, Klopp, Low.

And that's only looking at the top, top managers. There's probably about 50 managers (and that's very generous) who could do better than Moyes.

Would love to see Klopp at Utd next season.

Very good tactically and with some money behind him he could do well.

Too many facebook statuses and tweets and what not calling him an inspirational man and what not. I'm sorry but what 14 year old knows fuck all about him.

Wasn't he accused of killing a lot of people? Don't know much about him hence asking.


14 year olds that are educated?

Valencia, recent form.

3 games, 29 attempted crosses. 1 found a player. Kagawa outside the area


This.

Valencia's been awful for 2 seasons yet but somehow he's always in or around the first team. They need to put Nani in and give him a run of 6/7 games. Generally whenever Nani has been given a consistent starting place he's performed, his problem is that when he's in and out of the squad he's rubbish.

Just got my Xbox One (Wasn't in to collect it last week).

The controller is awesome. So much better than the 360.

The console itself looks better than I thought it would. It's not as big as everyone makes out either, not that it makes much of a difference how big it is. It's completely silent though. Kinect is also smaller than I thought it would be.

Snapping tabs is sick. Can snap the football to the side of the screen while playing a game or on Skype etc. Instantly switching to TV is also pretty cool.

The PS4 might be a bit more powerful but will definitely use a lot of the extra features on this.
