Manchester United lost nine of the final 11 competitive matches that Park Ji-Sung started for them in 2011-12.

That ain't on him and you know it, Yurt.
Those must be the most pointless statistics in football history.
Playing alongside Joey Barton, next season, seems to severe a punishment.

Video of Sammer at Bayern:

So, Bayern actually got a new coach after all. This season will be tough as shit, Sammer will kick guys like Kroos' ass so bad, it's not even funny and they will be either almost unbeatable or cry in the corner.

That's great news for you! How many titles do DCU have? All I really know about DCU is that Freddy Adu used to play for them and he was meant to be the best thing ever.
How did Borussia fans take the news? Do you even care? Is Sammer considered a club legend? Well, legend may be taking it to far, but he did spend something like 10 years with Dortmund, right? As player and as coach.

LOL. Dortmund have the players to beat any team. Klopp as built a fantastic group of players at Dortmund and imo they are a better and more complete team than Bayern. Dortmund's strike power is impressive and that Lewandowski is an excellent striker.

I think most fans care because Nerlinger was a living joke and with Sammer, they have someone that actually has a clue what he's doing. This will make Bayern stronger (or it'll end in chaos if Sammer and Hoeneß fight lol).
For Sammer himself, well, I don't really care that much to be honest. Yes, he spent some years here but he doesn't have the status of a Michael Zorc for example.
That's why I said "almost" unbeatable. Dortmund vs Bayern will be awesome.
Ur thinking of Laure Boulleau or Gaetane Thiney.
I don't know. Jovetić is fantastic, when he isn't injured, when it comes to Giovinco though ... we'll just have to wait and see. Fool me once ... I think Conte can mold him into the player he was supposed to be, but Seba is a bit of a JT, so you can never be sure. If it wasn't meant to be, we'll ship him off to Napoli next year and take Cavani, thank you very much.
Stevan is probably the closest thing to a Del Piero successor. Can't believe he's actually 185cm @ 80kg. He has the movements of much smaller technical player.

So Greg Stobart believes United will get £2.5m for Park up front and then another £2.5m if QPR stay in the PL. That sounds fair, come on QPR, you can do it!
Now I want them to get relegated even more!

He has the facial features of a smaller face too.
RVP is fantastic when he isn't lying on the medical table too
And for some reason, I believe in Gio again. Granted that 12 of his 15 goals were scored on small/mid table teams, but still..
Newcastle will be in the mix for fourth place again, and QPR might be able to help.

Get out of here with your damn reasoning!
People see what they want to see, and that's the hight of it really. At the end of the day, it was Chelsea's celebration and the vast majority of Chelsea fans wanted to see him lift it. Moaning about JT is just other fans way of getting involved in something that really didn't concern them.
In fact, people who hate JT sort of baffle me. I get why he's disliked, but there are loads of players from other teams I hate, but the last thing I want to do is sit and talk about them all the time.
"Van Persie will choose Juve"
In otherTuttoSport news ... Bayern bid 30M for Marchisio, rejected.bullshit
He better not!
SAF gets a lot of stick for "ruining" Anderson but I don't think thats really his fault. Anderson started off very well but injuries and attitude problems have stifled his development.
And I don't buy the assertation that Anderson was some genius attacking midfielder who was shoehorned into a CM role that suited him poorly. He's never shown that he was an accurate enough passer to be great in that role and his goalscoring record is appalling.
He has/had a great burst of power and acceleration that was great for a CM. He just doesn't have the fitness required for it imo.

Crazy goings on. There's clearly more going on at Preston than meets the eye, but even on the face it it looks like Westley is painfully out of his depth. Preston are a good club that deserves better. I know they have financial issues, but Westley looks to be approaching the situation with a very small time manager attitude.
It's disappointing for Preston because League One is going to be wide open this season. With all due respect to the division, the 3 sides who got promoted last year were head and shoulders above the rest of the league apart from United. With those 3 sides gone and United crippled financially, with all of their best players either sold, likely to be sold, likely to leave for nothing or in prison, there's a real chance for the rest of the division to step up. Preston will be incredibly disappointed if they're not one of the clubs in the running to take advantage of that.

JT does continuously give people reason to talk about him though, more than anybody else. Wayne Rooney runs him closest I suppose, but even Rooney's record is relatively clean compared to JT's :lol
Anyway, the JT "haterade" will reach fever pitch next week when he tries to defend himself against allegations (and almost self perjure) that he called Anton Ferdinand a "black JT". That should be fun!

Before even getting to on pitch matters Anderson has made life difficult for himself. His fitness is quite frankly a joke and the way he behaves when he does end up injured is ridiculous, two car crashes I think now, and last time he was lucky he escaped a DUI charge. Muppet.
I think the management did make some mistakes with Anderson but it's his fault more than anybody else's. He has had some clear bad luck and problems but he hasn't been professional or serious enough about his career to warrant any further sympathy or patience. I don't think playing in CM was a bad idea for him, as you say he would be too wasteful up front and his terrible injuries slowed his pace and feet down, plus he said himself early on he wanted to play CM. If there has been one mistake it's been chopping and changing him too much, he needs a run of games and we never really gave him that...obv. injuries didn't help.
Anyway, as I said, doesn't take his career at United seriously enough so we should let him go and just be done with it.
No, Allen's penis is touching him.
If my dream came true I'd be kissing Lee Dae Hae in bed.
The suspended players had to the wear the kit if they joined the celebrations, I'm guessing due to sponsorship reasons.
I don't understand the furore over him joining the celebrations, he has been at Chelsea for his entire career and has been the captain for a most of that time. The guy has seen his team come so close to winning the UCL a few times that I can't blame him for joining in.

PSG.
Who would even be interested in in buying Anderson? I can't see us selling for less than £10m though. Then we'll need a new midfielder coming in.
Don't know who that might be though as every United fan I've talked to has a different idea on what kind of player we need.

My point is more so that most of the JT hatred comes from off the field scandal, which personally, as a football fan I don't concern myself with. Whether it's in regard to players I like or dislike.
Using Rooney as an example (who I don't particularly dislike). When I heard about him banging old prostitutes, I really couldn't care less. When you then get a bunch of football fans going on about it, it really stinks of a bunch of women gossiping over their latest issue of Heat magazine.
Of course many players do terrible things off the pitch, but I'm not going to pretend like it concerns me or makes me think any less of that person as an athlete. The athlete aspect being the part of their character which does concern me.
I support JT as a footballer in the team I support. I'm not trying to be his mate. So why people get upset about the things he does, or any player does (unless it's on the pitch), really goes over my head.
As a bonus gripe. It also seems that people who are publicly disliked seem to get more shit attached to them than even they deserve. For example, I remember somebody asked why JT was so disliked. Bungie come on with a big post listing all JT's transgressions (seemed slightly obsessive since as a Chelsea fan, I had even forgot about some of them). Anyway, one of the things he listed was how, as he put it, JT assaulted a club door man. Now even Bungie went on to acknowledge he was found not guilty and had fought in self defence. yet he still used it as something to further stain his character, even though he wasn't found guilty of anything. Now, I consider Bungie a rational person, but when rational people start listing things for the sake of it, it comes across as a bit sad. I mean, by that same logic, Redknapp (a sports personally I dislike) is a tax dodger, even though he was found not to be.
Eh, it matters to me when a player is a nice bloke off the pitch.
I like Mata, for example, because he's a lucid, funny, intelligent, seemingly even-tempered guy who cares about books, history, culture, Taylor Swift.
It only makes sense that I care when, on the other hand, a player is a total prick off the pitch.
I see where you're coming from, though. A bit.

I don't dislike JT because he's a JT off the pitch. Footballers being JTs outside of football is nothing new.
Kneeing Sanchez at the Barca game though, that's just typical JT. Only a JT would do that during a big game.
Anyway I don't think I can hate Chelsea as much as I used to since Torres is still the man with the golden gun, and Hazard looks phenomenal.
