I think he's quite good. He needs an opportunity to play a major role for his team. I think he has potential to be a very good support striker. Does Benfica play 4-4-2, diamond or otherwise?

Liverpool is a 69 Corvette. People will go on about how great it used to be but no matter what you do it can't compete with modern hyper efficiency, though it'll still win here and there.
Yes that's exactly how we play, and always will with this coach (he's very stubborn)
Since losing Rodrigo to Valencia we keep saying we want a "mobile" striker to go with Lima (which is what Rodrigo did)

Micky got busted on a drug wrap in Washington a couple months ago.
I just don't think he is good enough. He is 5"7 and not strong enough. Plus all his best talents are cutting in from out wide.

I think Campbell is a good choice for that system. He is highly mobile and can play the supporting role well.
Sounds like he would fit in alright there then. He's definitely a wide forward/support striker.
Thought he was terrific today, especially in that 2nd half.

Which auto is the best in the world?
Which ever one it is, that is Pep.

Interesting. I saw some comment saying "at least he would be reunited with Samaris", where did they play together?

They didn't as far as I know, but Costa Rica played Greece at the World Cup I believe.

RUMMMMMMBBBBBOOOOOOOO!
Yeah, I was very impressed with him. Even when things weren't going his way in the first half he stayed after it and was fighting for every ball. He really has an engine and it was great seeing him pressure defenders.
I know Ozil isn't that type of player, but it would be nice to see that kind of hunger out of him. He looked so uninterested today. I don't think he has played well enough with Arsenal recently to be guaranteed the central starting role.
Thought Jack was solid today. Hope he continues to improve.
He's Korean. North Korean, but still Korean. That region collectively obsessed over Man Utd. I knew people there who called themselves "Rooney".

Yes!
Surely you're joking..
it would interesting to see a global map of European club's with the biggest fans per region
I still find the Scandinavian Love-in with Liverpool perplexing
Szczesny
Chambers Mertesacker Koscielny Gibbs
Flamini
Ramsey Wilshere
Ozil
Sanchez Giroud
Seems like a good formation to me.
Thing about Özil is I think he will reconsider his Arsenal career at the end of the season if he is constantly played out of position. He won't be happy and the more it happens the more obvious he will make it known.
It's a shame they'll be forced to watch a mid table club.

Apart from Kroos, fuck this transfer window. We kept players we shouldn't have and sold players we needed.
Japan is all about Chelsea and Barcelona (people over the age of 30 like Milan and Liverpool)
Korea and Singapore are pure Man Utd
Malaysia and Indonesia seem to be split between Liverpool and Man Utd
You sound... Frustrated
I'll get my coat.
in NK's version of the BPL United are currently top with 34 goals scored by glorious leader, who's partnering Rooney up front
No width. Also at this point probably include Theo instead of Giroud.
-------Sanchez
Ozil Jack Rambo Theo
------Arteta
Gibbs Kos Per Debuchy
---------SHZ
I think this is what we are going to see for most of the season.
Doubt it. How do you even know he is upset about being played there? He did it with Germany and didn't complain.
Don't think he has shown that he is undroppable from his favored position.
That would be interesting with everyone fit (would swap Chambers for Debuchy though). Monreal would get butchered.
Yeah you're probably right. It would at least solve the problem of Sanchez lacking opportunities to run into space with the ball since you'd have Ozil putting passes in behind and Giroud's hold up play.

He worked hard, but he will get killed week in and weekout in the PL. His positioning was awful today. He was often outside the box when we were attacking and came from deep to eventually catch up with the play for the goal.
You're learning both Japanese and Korean? That's gotta be difficult, but I guess grammatical similarities would mean that you could apply knowledge pretty well from one to the other. Also lots of overlap with words derived from Chinese as well.

Not sure if I want to learn Korean. I'm still undecided on portuguese and german to learn after Japanese.
Learning Korean lost its appeal to me entirely when I stopped having sex with Korean girls.

Somewhat. Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City has been pretty popular lately.
United still is the biggest club here by far though.
I've put the Korean on hold for now as I am starting Japanese in September at university level (my Japanese is way better). Yeah the grammar is easy because it's the same structures as Japanese with more or less direct equivalents but the pronunciation (different characters with identical sounds) makes memorising words with the correct spelling a real arse.

A know a few crazy gooners but Liverpool has NZ under control.
The two different "ae" spellings in Korean drove me nuts but overall Hangeul is so simple compared to Japanese's ridiculous kanji system. Korean pronunciation is stupid hard though, stuff like "ga" vs "gga" vs "ka" and how similar they can sound depending on their position in a word.
Japanese rarely has that spelling problem though, which is nice because any word you hear you'll be able to spell to look up in a dictionary. There are some exceptions like words that use とお instead of とう like 十、通り、遠い though but they're rare. It's all made up for by an incomprehensible writing system :lol

Pete, you must be the ultimate stud* over there.
Much respect.
*couldn't think of a better word
Yeah it drives me nuts. I learned hangul in two weeks, thought I was doing well only to experience what I imagine dyslexia to feel like when actually learning and spelling words.
It's a brick wall but a pretty one.
