yurt pls, Gigi has become way too prone to committing mistakes. Iker.

Alonso vs Pirlo was my hardest decision, but I settled on Alonso because of his work-rate

Ramos is pretty so he gets ahead of Chiello. Gotta sell shirts, baby.

I'll pick Iker when he learns how to catch a cross.

Xabi Alonso (click on career) v Pirlo (career tab). Look at Pirlo's ridiculous stats with Juve.

fair enough on Chiello

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Zeefuik you so fat

 

[qindarka]

Brown "has a slight knock."

See you next year, Wes.

Will you be going to Wembley again if Sunderland get through?

having Xabi over Pirlo would allow Modric and Vidal to surge forward more often /end

Pirlo has the better beard though

Blood Meridian is a strange book. Found it really hard to follow, and just to get a grasp o what McCarthy was going on about for most of the book. The last third has become much easier to understand and fast-paced, on the last chapter now.

Spoiler

Really weird how the kid is like the de facto main character in my mind, when he'sbarely even mentioned in most chapters

 

[Coldnoodle]

Schumi

 

[Salvadora]

please no

I'd even rather ARSENAL won than man city

they must be stopped

One step closer to adopting Arsenal as your second team.

Welcome.

can u pls explain why rafa tried to sell alonso to buy gareth fucking barry pls

Probably not for the semi, can't sit on a bus for 16 hours of a day again. I'm quite tall and have a problem with ligaments in both knees so sitting cramped for that long honestly had me close to vomiting, was in agony. Putting money away if we get to the final though, will get on a train.

 

[subtles]

I thought you would banish Alonso because his father played for Barcelona.

You are a big man pulga.

Always remember Xabi is a red.

 

[Yurt]

we used to play with Marchisio-Pirlo-Vidal and both Cla and Vidal surged forward.

you know what

fuck your Modric, I want Marchisio.

and fuck your Bale, I want Simone Pepe.

 

[cremino]

Pepe is basically dead...

Because Xabi had been playing at 76% for a while at the time and Barry was actually very good back then, as well as being hugely versatile which is a quality that Rafa appreciates to a fault. It was a fuck-up on his part as Alonso had been beset with injuries and struggled to get the consistent gametime to flourish (iirc) but he wasn't always as good as he suddenly became in 08/09, which is when he moved up a level.

To give you an idea of Xabi's value at the time, both Arsenal and Juve backed out of £12m deals for him I think.

to be fair, Poulsen was available.

-_-

 

[FlutterPuffs]

Welbeck went from shit to good this year, I'm surprised.

Not to mention Smalling is competent too now, and Januzaj is styling it, plus Shinji was better than Valencia and Young on the wing.

I won't be too sad if RVP leave next season, seeing WE ACTUALLY PLAYED THROUGH THE MIDDLE after he was subbed. It might be for the best even.

Great player, but someone has to go.

 

[Frank the Great]

Fucking RAI and Bein are both showing Inturd-Torino instead of Hellas-Parma.

Who the fuck wants to watch Inturd instead of the play-off for fifth place? Fuck.

 

[Mr.Marston]

Schumi

Yeah it's really sad.

Don't even know why the team did that after RVP went off, can't they do that when he's on as well?

Moyes pls.

 

[bud]

rvp's the best footballer in united's squad. if there's anyone you can play through the middle with, it's rvp.

 

[Frank the Great]

PALOSCHI <3

-_-

He Who Shall Not Be Named pls

Reading the actual name makes me want to put my foot through the screen. Was he as shit for you as he was for us?

 

[Yurt]

Zoe Saldana!

 

[pulga]

Rooney > RVP




god im having so much fun in the Agents of SHIELD thread.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Werder wants to buy Santiago Garcia.

Zoe Saldana!

is..is she banging the Khal?

 

[Rikkun]

Get fucked Fiorentina. Still two to go...

He was pretty Poulsen

is..is she banging the Khal?

well she was in Pirates of the Caribbean after all and he's the closest thing to Johhny Depp

Spoiler

No, he posted a picture of his girlfriend a few days ago

 

[Salvadora]

Why would RVP be preventing you from playing through the middle?

 

[Elchele]

Dortmund without Lewa today

Schieber starting :lol

 

[Frank the Great]

That's not Osvaldo lol. Does look like him though.

He reminds me of that actor.

...who the fuck is it then lololololol

 

[Wilbur]

I think we looked better when RVP went off because he's uninterested a tad, not because he can't play through the middle.

It doesn't matter how good a player is, if his heart isn't in it and he's frustrated as fuck with the situation they aren't worth playing.

Could've happened with Suarez but fortunately he realised Arsenal are ultimately a step down and put his football before his feelings.

It's a bit difficult right now because we have Olympiakos and Liverpool coming up, but I wouldn't have been averse to starting Welbeck instead otherwise.

 

[pulga]

what is this sorcery

 

[Broder Salsa]

Kinda looks like Matthäus in that GIF. Still doubtful if Werder stay in Bundesliga though.

He should go to them anyway, really 2 bundesliga would fit him more anyway. Fucking fucking hate Garcia, a terrible defender and a cunt.

 

[Elchele]

playing without a DM is not working for Bayern II

pls stop doing that shit

Livorno just scored a fantastic goal.

 

[Salvadora]

Suarez was kept like a slave by Liverpool, despite his feelings.

I urge everyone here to sign the petition to guarantee his freedom: https://www.change.org/en-GB/petiti...-release-luis-suarez-to-arsenal-football-club

"But what would people have said if you left him out?" /moyes

His name is Marco Perego according to Google........

I know that cunt will score against us.

'orrible little twat with freakishly gangly hands

MAD COMMENT ALERT: Quite enjoy watching Sunderland play, their shape is conducive to good football and a decent attacking tempo. They remind me of a Serie A team.

Hull aren't terrible to watch, either.

Because Steve Bruce is the most tactically astute English manager around. Loves his 3-5-2. He's like Conte with an aubergine for a nose.
