Pele was light years ahead of everyone during his generation. I have no doubt that players in modern times are better conditioned or technically better but he was, at a time, the greatest.

Hope he recovers. :(

Pele was the greatest player of his time, and if he was born in this decade he would be the greatest of this time. I hope he recovers.

What do Dejan Lovren and the Titanic have in common?

Neither should have left Southampton

Shoutout to Football Weekley (courtesy of some dude's tweet) for that one

In his new book, Pelle Talks, 1,000 Questions and More, he's asked who he thinks is better looking: himself or Ronaldo?

"Me," he says, according to the Daily Mail's translation (via The Score). "Cristiano is good looking but I am a little bit taller."

We have sold them 6 players.

They sell us one and suddenly we owe them one?

Nah, don't think so.

How many of those 6 players actually worked out for Barca? Vermaelen, Fabregas, Song, Petit, Hleb all never worked out. Overmars didn't really work out either.

We've actually gotten quite a bit of money out of Barcelona.

So we have to keep selling them players until one works out? How is our fault that they ruin good players?

We paid them for Sanchez. We don't also have to give them a player.

I never said that. I said it was unfair, not that we should keep selling them players.

If anything Barcelona owes Arsenal for letting Cheques Fabrecahs come to Chelsea.

We let Fabregas go to Chelsea and I'm fine with it.

Dunno if this has been posted already but w/e. Apparently Steven Gerrard and 11 other men assaulted someone outside a Liverpool nightclub in August. There's a motion in court right now about it. Although it seems to be about subsequent police misconduct in the investigation rather than the assault itself. Gerrard says he was stepping in to help the man but the victim says Gerrard threw the first punch.

How is it unfair though? We gave them money. That is what the deal is. We give you money. You give us a player.

Madrid sold us Ozil. If they ever come sniffing around for an Arsenal player
they won't. we aren't good enough
should we feel obligated to sell to make it fair?

He's making it so that Rodgers can't pick him anymore. What a man.

It's not unfair in the sense we have to do anything. When you pay that kind of money though you expect a return and they haven't had that. That's what's unfair, not that it's our fault.

Nobody expects that Lightning. I think you might, but most teams do not.

We paid the money. It is over.

If that were the case we would have a partnership like Tottenham Madrid had.

Better hope Gerrard isn't expected to defend himself in court.

Oy m8,

Was reading an article on The Guardian and the comments were debating this question: would you prefer to still have the invincibles season or a Champions League win?
Click to expand...
Oh god.

How is that even a question.

Only because some fans will say invincible since it's something that actually happened and they can brag about.

If you refer to all Russian teams as Zenit then you're indirectly calling me a multi team cunt aka Suen. Very offensive.

What sort of partnership did they have? Spurs asked about Özil during the Bale transfer and we're told he wasn't for sale while they done a deal with us behind Levy's back.
