Andy Carroll appeal has been rejected. Presumably they didn't actually watch any footage

Rumour doing the rounds that Saints are looking for a way to cancel their contract with Adidas.

Pls be true.

Why what is wrong with it?

That's ridiculous. He wasn't even looking at Flores.

FA pls.


DM say West Ham would go to high court if it fails. Hopefully they do.

FA pls.

He didn't even properly touch him, he swiped his ponytail, incredible decision. FA continue to prove their worth

Miguel Delaney &#8207;@MiguelDelaney 17m

Man Utd play through centre of pitch: 09-10: 30% (5th in PL); 10-11: 29% (11th in PL); 11-12: 30% (6th); 12-13: 28% (8th); 13-14: 24% (20th)

It's what we all knew but it's incredibly damning nonetheless. We're bottom of the league for attacking through the middle.

Holy shit my mate is doing an interview with Mark and Tommy Wiseau this week

Does anyone know how to stop my phone from syncing my text messages to my Outlook Email account? I just have dozens of confirmation texts from the local taxi firm and texts from my mammy in there, can barely find my emails.
Edit: NVM, I googled it like an unlazy person. There is a "Sync SMS" in Settings.

Mourinho loves talking about us. He even talked about us when he was at Madrid and Inter. I wonder why?

Putting pressure on you, deflecting away from his team.

Plus he and Wenger have never really gotten on

 

[Barzul]

Also if I was Man Utd, I'd ditch Moyes in the summer. He isn't going to get any better. He took the the PL champions from 1st to 7th. Has any other top team in Europe declined that rapidly?

 

[Pizza con salsiccia]

Wtf?!

Tuttosport is apparently talking about Arsenal buying... Balotelli next summer.

This is fucking disgusting. Need to play Mata/Rooney/Januzaj at the same time and just trust them to do good things.

That actually makes some sense, Puma are our new sponsors and they recently signed Balotelli, they might be subsidizing the transfer. I'd take him at Arsenal.

Fairly sure Everton had similar stats a couple of seasons ago. Would be interesting to see.

 

[Facism]

How many teams are there who are currently happy with their owner/upper level management?

Outside of City and Chelsea who just have all the money in the world, I can't think of one clear team.

I wonder if this is the case around most of Europe too.

well, i'm happy Aziz Yildirim is in prison.

Won't change much unless Moyes changes the tactics.

Wants the job.

 

[Wilbur]

Won't change much unless Moyes changes the tactics.

Players as intelligent as them should be willing to, when playing together, do what they want. I always find it odd that grown men would strictly adhere to "play it out to the full backs" or whatever else their coach tells them, especially when they're players like Mata. He shout trust his own abilities and defy Moyes a bit, if it pays dividends then will he fucking care? Doubt it. Working on shape and counter and whatnot is fine, but if Moyes says "go through the flanks" and it isn't working, I'd like to think our players aren't fucking sheep dogs who don't think for themselves.

He has a thing with red. Red broke his heart, so he's hellbent on paying attention to red.

Moyes is not worth dying for. They don't care about his 'approval'.

Vidal would turn into Vidalerely and party all night in London

What the fuck have you done to the start of my quote LOL

But that's the thing; if they're not playing for Moyes, or listening to his tactics, why are grown men that are known to have egos, being paid hundreds of thousands a week, not thinking for themselves on a football pitch? It's not a case of not having the options, because our four best players in those three positions behind the striker - Rooney, Adnan, Mata and Shinji are all far more comfortable playing through the middle, and you think that would be their natural inclination. So too to make runs and look for runners. I'm just at a loss as to why they - and the majority of footballers really - would stick so rigidly to a tactical plan that just doesn't work, instead of looking for answers themselves.

I know why Moyes sticks to it, because it's all he knows. But it's not all our players know, so I don't know why they don't think for themselves a bit.

He's playing at least four players out of position.

That's almost half the team.

Please sack him.

Edit: did he even consider playing to their strengths instead of shoe-horning them all together?

Not until the end of the season. Mi dispiace.

I'm still not entirely on the Moyes death squad, but there needs to be a real improvement between now and May. And he won't be sacked regardless.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Cavani

^I'd still take him over any striker in the world. (Aside from Messi and Berardi)

@Squawka: No player completed more crosses in the Premier League this weekend than Jesús Navas. Speedy Gonzales. http://t.co/oNKZnH86fc

Moyes should have bought him.

 

[Clegg]

I'd be worried if that snippet about Moyes not spending enough time on attack in training is true. And he's also bought extremely poorly if he decides to just stick Mata out on the wing.

His 4 best attacking players are suited to playing through the middle but his system is based on wide play. It's not encouraging.

It's almost like I warned you this would happen.

Moyes won't change his system. Notwithstanding the fact that he wouldn't anyway, what manager that is losing too much suddenly decides to change the strategy they've always depended on?

Double post, I'm sorry but..

HOLY SHIT!

Fabio Quagliarella is essentially no longer a Juventus player, as he is now training separately from his teammates.

The striker rejected several transfer offers in January, including from Lazio and Cardiff City, but has no place in the squad now that Daniel Osvaldo has arrived from Southampton.

He was left off the UEFA squad list for the Europa League knockouts and according to Sky Sport Italia is now not even training with his teammates.

Quagliarella’s training sessions at the Vinovo ground are at different times to the others.

This is not a new situation, as the same treatment was given to Vincenzo Iaquinta when he rejected moves and was sitting out the remaining months of his contract.

In this case, Quagliarella’s contract runs until June 2015, but Lazio claim he has already given the all-clear to join them over the summe

he's getting Amauri'd! What a sad end to his story with us

More like AVB'd. He did that to Malouda, Adebayor and Assou-Ekotto.

Fuck Ground Zeroes, cheeky cunts. Might buy Phantom Pain used because of this shite.

 

[Timurid]

Why would inter fucking think of loaning out Ranocchia?!?!?!? I will never understand their management. Don't they play with 3 defenders too?!?!?

Looks like PSG is going to pry Lloris out of London and that opens the door for Fiore to grab Sirigu. Great move for both parties if it goes through. PSG gets a better and french keeper. While Fiore gets a massive improvement over Neto.
