This thread is just fucking painful because we never actually sign the good players we're linked with in the type of reports on here. All of the players we are supposedly lining up on here a) are preposterous, or b) would fit into our team far too well and therefore won't happen. Do think this threa...

Makes me glad we don't have any key players playing in the tournament given the tackling policy implemented by the Senegalese yesterday and the referee's mentality that it was a friendly. For those who think that women's football is a good standard, it's not. I hear rubbish about how women could pla...

Anybody see Leon Knight rip into Jamie O'Hara last night? :shock: :shock: :shock: Yes, it was absolutely hilarious. Normally I would think he was another overpaid completely average footballer looking for a bit of fame (which he is), but I don't care given how badly he was rinsing O'Hara. My person...

IF you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to h...

Poor form from Bale/Spurs but at the end of the day would I want Arsenal's best player playing in a Mickey Mouse tournaments with people flying into tackles like the Senegalese were today? Not a fucking chance. As I recall when Barcelona took Messi's case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport they a...

Wouldn't mind the fucking round with the away kit every other year so much if they at least had a good yellow and blue kit in the alternate years. That yellow and maroon kit was shit and looked particularly ridiculous when we had to wear it with yellow shorts. Thankfully though I recently stumbled a...

At the end of the day had he worked for a private security company like G4S it wouldn't have played out in the same way. Viewing it with the benefit of his past experiences also, it's fairly obvious that the bloke is a violent twat on a power trip that should never have been a copper in the first pl...

The fact I wasn't alive for that game was somewhat remedied by the fact that we had the full 90 minutes (plus stoppage time :D ) on VHS. Whilst most kids were out playing at the age of 6 I was sat glued to the telly watching Hansen, Nicol and Grobelaar pass it in triangles for hours just so that I c...

Chelsea have actually just signed Eden Hazard's younger brother after spunking out well over the odds in the first place. Laughable but fucking annoying that a side that finished 6th can go out and do that

He's a fucking embarrassment to the club in my view. Far too much of a self-styled homegrown hero wannabe. His record so far is absolutely no justification for the way he goes around acting like Billy Big Dick. Could be a good player if he gets over his injury problems and did earn kudos for terrori...

Are people really moaning about signing up one of our best players on a long term deal. Success should be rewarded and kos for my money was second only to kompany in the best cb in the premier league last season. we're damned if we do and damned if we dont, i agree on some of the players who have b...

5 years doesn't bother me, if we really want to get rid we'll sell him before then and if he wants to go then likewise. I don't buy into him being a flash in the pan, plenty of defenders have had poor first seasons before going on to be quality. We need consistency in our defence and that's what he'...

Beggars belief that after all that happened with Fabregas and Nasri, Wenger can still claim RvP will stay after his statement and refusal to go on the club tour. It's blatant to everybody he's going, why doesn't Wenger just keep his mouth shut and just let things run their course? Still fucked off a...

Look at the calculation method, it's not merely about making a loss. It's TOTAL INCOME vs FOOTBALL EXPENDITURE. When you think of the annual debt repayment costs of the likes of United, the fact that that is precluded from the calculation makes it hugely inaccurate. It's possible for big clubs to th...

Fat bastard, can't believe he hasn't been caught out more defensively so far. That said I can't bring myself to dislike him.

Don't get the idea about using him as a winger though. Surely just buy a winger instead of trying to use a failed full-back there?
