Football Thread 2014/15 |OT9| - How the Snitch stole all the banter

Inquisition is by far the better thought out balanced game. It's amazing how bad the DS formula becomes without Miyazaki. Bloodbourne will be phenomenal but DS2 was pretty underwhelming. Still, it's filled with decent lore, loot and some terrific enemy design. Online isn't that bad either. But anything that made DS1 such a legendary game, simply lacks in DS2 :/

Yurt pls. Deep inside you know how disappointing it was :/

it was quite underwhelming but I wouldn't call it shit m8er

I sort of want Bloodbourne to be shit to see the meltdown. What if DS2 ends up being a better game after all this A team, B team nonsense.

Bloodborne can't be shit. It just can't. :(

It reminds me so much of the original Devil May Cry in terms of setting and challenging combat (focus on the offence this time) with a high emphasis on combining your melee/firearms for combos. Of course, Bloodborne isn't a character action game like your DMC's, Bayonetta's, etc. but DMC1 was quite different to the sequels in terms of having a more limited but highly effective moveset, high emphasis on practising caution (you can't rush in and expect to come out alive on the higher difficulties), etc.

DMC1 is in my top 5 favourite games of all time so getting something even remotely similar to that makes my kneepits sweat cum.

Zabo, what are your thoughts on Allegri these days?

Why, thanks for asking, Shanks.

Allegri is a tactical genius.

Odd_morsel will try to convince you otherwise, but yeah, DS2 was very disappointing after DS1.

Still thinking about El Shaa's shot on the crossbar.

God damn it.

did you see the new screens? LOOK AT THE CHARACTERS DESIGNS


HOW CAN IT BE SHIT

Miyazaki is a five-dimensional being, he creates his games on a black hole's singularity, where flopness is zero and the metacritic is 90+, and then he sends his games data via morsel code to OddMorsel via GAF PMs
 
Zabo pls
Luci, what are your thoughts on Balo so far with Liverpool?

Expected this?

Yes.

I lost all hope I had on him last year, he was (supposedly) playing for the team he supported his whole life, and didn't care. He then played his first world cup, scored a goal against the other team that returned home early with us, and disappeared for the two games remaining. Milan signs another coach, a more demanding one, and just one month after his first training session with Inzaghi Galliani puts him up for sale.

Maybe if he was in last year Liverpool his time would've been better, but in the end I don't think the rest of the team is really the problem. He played in two important clubs in his career (one of those had Mourinho on the bench and won everything in a single season) yet he still couldn't "find himself". Same goes for last year with Milan (not a top club, sure, but he was in the team he wanted to play for) and Italy (again, not one of the best national teams out there. Not even the worst one, though).

Oh and his first time being called up by Conte was amazing. Another demanding coach and he goes back to England after a few days.

not a direct quote but Conte killed me when he said "I don't have the time or patience to fix him" :lol and "better managers failed" :lol

I hope he retires

speaking of five-dimensional beings, Allegri could be one as well

technically, he gave away Pirlo to himself


Allegri is a flat circle, or at least his combover is.
 
Premier League football star Saido Berahino is to be interviewed by police after being arrested for drink-driving.

The West Brom and England striker was stopped for travelling at "high speed" on the M6 motorway in the early hours of the morning. And when officers spoke to Berahino, he was then arrested on suspicion of drink-driving.

The 21-year-old was interviewed and bailed and must go back to a police station to speak again with officers next month following his arrest near Lymm in Cheshire last month.

A spokeswoman for Cheshire Police said: "At around 03.39am on the morning of Wednesday 22nd October, a patrol stopped a car travelling at high speed southbound on the M6 near J20.

"A 21-year old man was arrested on suspicion of drink-driving, interviewed and was subsequently bailed and is due to appear at a Cheshire custody suite early in December."

Berahino escaped his war-torn African homeland of Burundi at the age of 10 to start a new life with his refugee mother in Birmingham and was called up to the England squad by Roy Hodgson earlier this month, but did not play.

idiot.
 
Holy shit at Homeland. The terrible love mess that were seasons 2 and 3 are well and truly over. It really is delivering high quality again.

we're FINALLY using a back four, so as far as I'm concerned, he's already better than Conte -_-

it''s hard to judge him now since we're doing relatively well everywhere and we've yet to face a manager capable of outwitting him/us. Left back Padoin will backfire tomorrow though I'm afraid

his late subs annoy the fuck outta me, but the same can be said for Conte. He's doing much much better with that lately, I think he did a couple of 60 and 75 min subs the other day :lol BABY STEPS

his press conferences are now less surreal and dream-like unfortunately :lol it was my favorite part of his tenure with Milan " *team loses 3-0* Allegri: we played well, we were so gud, I'm proud of the team and I couldn't ask for more "

He was always gonna take time for him to change and get the team playing his way. The good start bought him the ability to change things up later on, which I thought might come in the new year once he had worked some more with the players over winter.

Why, thanks for asking, Shanks.

Haha, i would have asked you as well if you were online earlier.

Homeland season 2 and 3 were really not that bad. I was disappointed because I expected really really shit tv after everything I heard and all the fry bashing. Instead I just got some ok/good-ish tv.

it is the second half second yellow card story for Inter in the CL with no Milito or Eto'o, surely you have heard it before.

Oh the one one where he bullshits and says balo gets a red in the 46th minute after mou telling him at half time to not foul.

Balo actually got a red in the 70s minute in that game iirc.

Fuck mou.

Season one promised so much, and then the next two seasons become more of a love story. and absurd.

I want a spy drama, not a love story.

Gutted I missed out on The Sopranos Blu-Ray boxset last night on Amazon UK's Black Friday deal. Instead of 90 quid it was 60. Shit ain't ever gonna reduce in price otherwise for a good few years knowing TV show boxsets. So close but so far away.

Damian Lewis was winning awards left and right, they had to keep him around I guess :lol
his story should've ended after S1, or midway through S2 at least. But they wrapped it up nicely in the end. Claire writing his name was quite cool.

but yeah can we stop with the love stories already

So close but so far away.

well since Sal is here

Mino Raiola: "Paul is already better than Platini. He scores and acts like a playmaker. He can play as central midfielder and in the No.10 position," Pogba's agent told Radio Rai.

"We are talking about a midfielder who is physically strong and tactically aware. He is a modern and complete player. I might be biased, but I'm not wrong.

"Pogba has the same characteristics as [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic. Even if we are living in the era of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Paul will win the Ballon d'Or more than once."

I dunoo Mino, I dunno
