"Samir you've been a losing finalist twice here once with Arsenal...

*laughs*

...and once with City. How was it to win today?"

Or something to that extent. I'm reading too much into it, but yeah

You won the cup, are you so happy that you are drunk?

Why am I listening to Whitney Houston?

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Well i'm off to commit seppuku.

I've got my tanto ready

 

[Gareth Bale]

We are always shit going forward when Eriksen isn't playing. Hopefully if Lamela ever comes out of cryo-freeze he'll be able to share that playmaker role.

Loaning out Holtby was idiotic.

What would be good is if we work on our movement in the opponents half. Everyone is happy to come short and show for the ball, but hardly anyone is making runs to create space or looking to receive the ball once they've given it. It's almost as if the player in possession needs to make solid eye contact with another player before they'll go and move into a position to receive it, which is really lazy when you think about it (i.e. I'm not going to make a run unless I know it's coming to me)

These players still look like pussies too often, very few demand the ball or really drive at defences. Combined with our turgid movement it's quite painful to watch. I don't think it will get fixed until they've all had a pre-season together.

 

[Yurt]

Okay guys time for the REAL Derby d'Italia :]

let's all cool it and be Fadys for one day

you too Frank

 

[Marc]

guys stop me

I'm seriously considering trading in some stuff and getting the Titanfall XB1 bundle.

Would only cost me about £15 in all.

Wait till christmas, there will be bundles galore and more price drops. Seems likely a new SKU too, smaller maybe and maybe without the kinect. Plus you will know by then whether its worth it.

Patience.

 

[Barzul]

Wait so the Suarez clause was real? Liverpool just said fuck the contract?! Got to admire the balls. We should have taken them to court.

This is the smartest course of action all things considered.

I'm such a bad impulse buyer when it comes to new gadgets and shit.

 

[FuturusX]

you're going to miss out on the last guardian m8

Nah, I'm a proper Mac wanker so PC gaming is a no go aside from FM.



I only checked their prices, I don't actually want to go there!

What Mac do you have?

I'm rocking a few Hackintoshs and a macbook pro but I run Windows when I need to all the time. (Bootcamp and dual boot - on the hakintoshes)

I'm going to do that for PC gaming this gen. Not that I have time for gaming these days.

 

[Scum]

No we still have a need for this Benteke!

Boo. :<

AVB sucked the life out of 'em. :-/

If they miss CL again(doubtful) he's gone anyway, clause or no clause. I'm surprised they didn't take them to court.

 

[Mastadon]

Wait so the Suarez clause was real? Liverpool just said fuck the contract?! Got to admire the balls. We should have taken them to court.

You wouldn't have been able to take us to court. What would you have sued us for? The only person in that situation who could take legal action would be Suarez.

I'm sure Henry was talking shit anyway to be honest.

 

[Arnie]

Will, you get the X1, I've got the PS4. We can have the best of both worlds.

Was that Skype interview for a job in London?

Take Liverpool to court? For what? Wouldn't Suarez be the only one able to do so??

Got given a 21.5" 3.2GHz iMac a while back but I do most of my shit on a 2012 13" Macbook Pro - 2.5 GHz, 16GB RAM. Not really powerful enough for good games either way.

 

[FootballFan]

Reina own goal? PLEASE man.

time to watch

 

[Splatt]

Reina own goal? PLEASE man.

time to watch

Really? Wow.

He's been prone to mistakes before, but he seems to have really lost the plot.

 

[Salvadora]

If Suarez had taken legal action against Liverpool, it would've been dragged through the courts for ages.

Makes his summer behaviour unstandable.

 

[Mastadon]

The head of the PFA came out publicly and said that he had read the contract, and it didn't contain a firm release clause. I can't imagine why he would lie about this.

 

[WJD]

Will, you get the X1, I've got the PS4. We can have the best of both worlds.

Was that Skype interview for a job in London?

Fucking yes. Untouched Halo 2 HD multiplayer and we'll be spaffing everywhere together.

Not for a specific job, but it was with a very important man who has basically told me to go and do an LPC in London and "keep in contact" with him if I wanted some opportunities at Warner Bros/Pottermore (???). So I'm looking at those at the moment.

 

[KidA Seven]

What's up with this brown beanie bullshit?

 

[Ushojax]

AVB sucked the life out of 'em. :-/

The more you watch these players the more you realise how stupid AVB's set-up was. I don't think his system will ever work in the PL, it's just too easy to defend against. A lot of the player still haven't shaken off his 'safety first' style.

 

[Scum]

What's up with this brown beanie bullshit?

Infamous, innit.

Everyone is a wannabe januzaj

Henry is probably smoking something.

 

[Elchele]

Frankfurt won 2-1 against Stuttgart, well deserved after what they did in EL.

aside from Bayern, the whole european spots and relegation battle is fucking crazy. Freiburg pls

 

[Barzul]

Take Liverpool to court? For what? Wouldn't Suarez be the only one able to do so??

I dunno thought we'd have a case if the clause was legit, I don't know how all this legal crap works in relation to this case.

Imagine Nathan nagging us to get our act together so we can go out but we just want one more game of Lockout doubles.

 

[Mastadon]

Nah it's similar to the Konoplyanka thing in the last window. We met the release fee, but the owner basically told us to fuck off. We can't do anything about it, it has to come from the player as he is the one who has a case for breach of contract.

 

[Scum]

Here's hoping they shake it off soon enough.

Good God, Stuttgart. That form. D:

I dunno thought we'd have a case if the clause was legit, I don't know how all this legal crap works in relation to this case.

Thing is, even if you had a case, it could be one of those that's drags on through out the entire summer. The last thing both sides need is fighting over player transfer with the football season in full swing.

 

[dc89]

Welp. There's a chance that Rangers could fall into administration tomorrow.

 

[WJD]

Christ I'm erect.

Fucking Napoli killed my accumulator. Cunts.

I've found Pep's tactics sheet

 

[Scum]

Welp. There's a chance that Rangers could fall into administration tomorrow.

Wut?!

 

[L1NETT]

Even thinking about Halo 2 HD untouched gets me up for buying an X1.

I'm so easy

Like a sunday morning

2 draws 0 losses. Bayern. BundesLolga.

fk off britos m8

 

[Scum]

Nex weekend...

Cardiff v Fulham
Norwich v Stoke

...fun.

 

[TeegsD]

Hopefully there can at least be some justice today in the way of Porto dropping more points

 

[Arnie]

The first two minutes of this melting me.

 

[Marc]

This is the smartest course of action all things considered.

I'm such a bad impulse buyer when it comes to new gadgets and shit.

Same, I don't even want to play Titanfall but salivated a bit at those recent bundles just because. Had to remind myself I didn't actually 'need' it.

Also I have a deep distrust for MS now, the recent stuff to be sure was not good but even with the 360. I was very happy with my 360 until the Kinect came in, then they abandoned all support for it with the odd Halo or Gears game expected to hold us over. Totally put me off and I can see the same happening again in a few years time. Sales not what they are, MS puts projects on hold or cancels them, pressure from shareholders just to give up entirely.

Its so badly managed these days, I mean 100 million development costs on a sodding controller. The 360 with a built in battery pack and improved D-Pad would have done the job and cost them sod all, god knows how else they piss money up a wall.

 

[Scum]

The first two minutes of this melting me.

Can't wait to see him lead England to glory.

 

[Blablurn]

Visca Barca! Allez Paris!

 

[Suen]

Visca Barca! Allez Paris!

Fuck Bayern!

 

[Frank the Great]

Okay guys time for the REAL Derby d'Italia :]

you too Frank

No worries here, I don't expect a win, and we don't really have anything to lose. I just hope that it's a good game and that we play well. The Pathetico game is far more important.

I have to say though, the only thing that might make me lose my shit is if the referee gifts you guys a win.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Hey guys, remember when we beat Southampton 3-0?

 

[Fry]

The first two minutes of this melting me.

Are we actually going back to the CL?

Oh my god.

 

[FuturusX]

Hey guys, remember when we beat Southampton 3-0?

Feels like only yesterday.

 

[K1LLER7]

Fucking Napoli killed my accumulator. Cunts.

Nothing new with Rafa's teams lol
