I knew I'd get a sarcy comment from you
I'm merely saying it'll be interesting to compare at the end of the season. Not saying I'm expecting a massive difference.

World Record Transfers since the late 1800s.
I think that list is lacking some transfers. I just recently read an German article that said Breitner to Madrid was a record transfer back in 74. But that could have something to do with all the currencies back then.

That Ferguson put officials under pressure and United benefited?
Okay Meus.
That's not the question you want to be asking. /Jedi Mind Trick

You cunts exaggerate any call United get.
Buying Owen Hargreaves for 17m is the equivalent of shooting Bale in both kneecaps and then buying him for 600m.

Sounds like we did really well down at QPR. Hard to feel positive after a 2-1 defeat normally but by all accounts we matched them for most of the game and had chances to win it. Hit the post, couple of missed sitters and a bit of a stone waller turned down.
That QPR team is frightening for that level as well. Likes of Joey Barton and Junior Hoilett starting with the options to just casually bring Charlie Austin and Shaun Wright-Phillips off the bench. No excuses for them to not get promoted really and they should be aiming to win the league.

I wonder how Stevie G feels when he looks into Barry's cold eyes and see's a Premier League winner?
Just wondering.
I wonder how many city players feel hollow after buying a championship.

Impossible to say really, which is why it'll be interesting to look back at it at the end of this season!

'I can't believe this lump is in the England set-up'
Nah, he's just a bad ref.
The same way Barry feels, as he sees the eyes of a Champions League winner.
and someone who has made it past the group stage.
Barry will tick one of those things off this season.
Yeah QPR not an easy place to go first day. I still think Reading should do well got bags of quality with people like Drenthe, Le Fondre scored first game and Guthrie apparently scored a beaut to nick it for em against a strong Ipswich side. Wigan look strong too.
It'd be embarassing if he doesn't.

The last of his kind?
Even Marchisio is going to leave us for United eventually.
Bonera and Antonini have stayed at Milan all these years despite heavy interest from United and Munich, so Gerrard is not the last of his kind.
Add me. My PSN is the same as my GAF name.

This is a potentially world-class player.

Adding now.
The passion of a warrior. Them Gold Patches. We need that shit back ASAP. Looks so good against sky blue.
Give us one of these whilst you are at it.

One of my all time favourite kits.
Potentially? Jesus Christ IS world-class.
but not anymore I'm afraid
Best kit recently
yeah, no wonder that was a CL winning kit.
the new one seems like a combination of the previous 3 kits, I like it a lot.
Cool. Just send me an invite.
Love the new kit
