ohhh that explains it.
Do not doubt our resident ITK vulva
Seriously, I think it's done before the world cup. So we can push on with transfers ASAP. Shaw at least, gotta get that wrapped up.

Not any itk type stuffs mate, what the journos are saying. Strip me butt naked if you like.
I am hoping they will finally have some confidence and belief.
Next season is going to be spectacular. The top of the table is going to be insane.
Don't give Wilbur the option. He won't resist
England U17s won 2-0 vs Portugal U17s. We're winning the WC soon lads.
god i wish
I'm worried we have too many holes with players leaving in the summer, we'll have to buy a lot of players just to maintain our current level, let alone move forward.
we need like 5 or 6 quality signings and I have no idea if Wenger is capable of pulling that off. especially with the World Cup coming up

I'd be very surprised if Van Gaal and Shaw aren't announced in a fortnight. I can see Van Gaal being presented this week (or tomorrow) and Shaw shortly after and probably another big signing before the start of the WC.
Really hoping Holland does well and maybe some of their guys will come over to play under Van Gaal. But we'll probably fuck up 90% of the signings we're linked to.

Vermaelen won't be allowed to leave.

Well, England and USA are not going to get past groups so I'm gonna need someone to root for. Also, De Gae will be benched the whole tourney so there's really no point in hoping Spain does well.

England and Holland might be going out at the same time.
you don't need to announce it to make it real. The deal is most likely already done, but they won't announce it until the WC is done or Holland are eliminated
I usually have a few favourites at the WC - Mexico, Italy, Holland - after England. Same applies here, I think. I really like Chile as well.
Believe, my love. LVG and Vidal will fucking do Spain.

I'm not going to say Shaw is done because I thought Thiago was done.
I think Viva is right. Spain and Chileh will finish above the Oranjeh.

Do you guys remember Kermit
I accused him of making childish insults at De Gea because he always wrote "Gae" and I thought he was doing it on purpose. Turns out it was just autocorrect.
Well I definitely wouldn't put that kind of pettiness past him :lol
After England not really bothered who wins. Just as long as they've done it in the right way.
edit:
You're saying that's him? Reported.

Doubt it will go up any more. Plus wouldn't a bad World Cup potentially have the chance of lowering his price?
Embrace the little boy inside you.
Yeah I think so too, been saying it for ages. One of my managers is a dutchie, he bet me thirty quid that Spain go out in the groups. Gimme sumdat
Don't think Wenger will let Vermalen leave.
Replace Sagna with Aurier. Vela/Milner. Striker. DM. Backup keeper.
Striker is really the only one I could see us struggling with. Aurier won't shut the hell up about Arsenal so that should be a done deal. I think Schneiderlin is realistic. Love if we go for Martines or Bender, but i'll be happy with Schneiderlin. Keeper i'm not worried about.
I don't think a bad tournament would do much to change his value tbh. United want him badly as the opening bid shows. They'll want this sorted before the WC starts though.
Shaw may not even play that much. Baines is the starting left back for this tournament.

Hah. Wrote it from my phone since my computer is out of commission and just botched his name. :lol Nothing but love for our keeper!

it was just, banter

P.S - anyone got the vine link for that little snippet?
One of the journos was saying Woy sees Shaw as first choice. Probably not true...but it could be.
Rember 3sixty posting somet about this.
Wouldn't mind Shaw starting. Could do with his pace.
Having only three centre backs (and only two I trust) worries me greatly.
It's a disaster waiting to happen.
who?

Uruguay and Italy are going to be real tough matches. I mean even Costa Rica isn't a free 3 points after last WC's disappointing draw against Algeria and they haven't looked all that great recently but ya never know.
Guess we will find out what the plan for Ignasi Miquel is this summer.
Anyone know if he has played much on his loan?
England won't even get past the group stage.
love it.
19 wins from 19 home games.
33 wins out of 38 games.
102 points.
A European top 10 leagues record.
Wow.
Even if you do think Serie A is weak, that's still a hell of an achievement. When I said congrats to Roma earlier, they've finished second on a point less than City won the league with. They've done great this season.
Forza Roma.
Forza Juve.
Conte come to us. Bring Vidal with you.

People seem to be seriously overrating the Uruguay squad, presumably after recent strong international performances. But their squad is pretty awful. A bunch of their core players from the last WC are now into their mid-30s and heavily declining, like Forlan, Lugano and Rios. Meanwhile none of the youngsters have managed anything, like Coates, Ramirez and Lodeiro.
Their team is Suarez and Cavani and pretty much nothing else. And Cavani performs poorly for them and Suarez was dead for the last month of the PL. Aside from those 2 and maybe Godin, none of their players wold make the England squad.
