But you like Oasis. A band that exists entirely of twats.



This certainly affects our national team. Much fewer talents reach their potential. Just look at Bouy. He normally would have been a starter for us now. Who knows what could have been.

At least Noel knows how to make good music.

And he can actually sing.

I thought we'd be playing much better football than we are this season. Sigh.
Click to expand...

We did for a while, at the start.

And then LVG decided that Di Maria in a striker role would be swell even though we already have Rooney, Falcao and RVP up front,

Those stupid amount of injuries,

and his insistence that playing 3-5-2 is the best because 4-4-2 makes him fart.

That Di Maria thing is frustrating. Everyone knows our biggest problem is at the mid and what does he do? Get our best performing midfielder in a striker role.

Gaal should go back to good old 4-3-3 as in the old days. Surely United got the players to work that I suppose.

Anyways, off to bed

Radiohead vs Arctic monkeys

Discuss
Click to expand...
The fact that people even begin to compare Arctic monkeys to Radiohead just goes to show how shit the current generation of music is. Arctic monkeys are barely above average and they're being compared to Radiohead one of the all time greats.

Pogba is coming home this summer. Verratti, Pogba, and Matuidi midfield is going to be beautiful.

At what point do you think Qatar will outright buy the entirety of Serie A to make feeding their squad easier?

A move to La Liga isn't going to be much different.

Maybe this is just a disposable joke, but the gulf between the two leagues at present is staggering. Spain has three of the top ten clubs in the world (Italy has zero), La Liga is much more competitive (have you compared the two tables recently?); and top teams in Spain are the obvious current home and destination for the very best footballers in the world (Serie A is, well... this).

Is Valkyria Chronicles any good? Just bought it on steam. Haven't played a JRPG in ages and it was cheap.
Click to expand...

It kinda depends what you expect from it. I enjoyed the first two Valkyria Chronicles games but the "tactics" or "strategy" part basically amounts to rushing in with scout units.

I didn't bother me so much and I played it as "beat the level in as few turns as possible to get an A-rank, regardless of anything else that happens." I lent it to a friend (who plays a lot more PC-based RTS stuff) and he couldn't really get into it because he was so use to methodically clearing out enemy units and positioning his whole team. You don't need to do that in Valkyria Chronicles.

It's different from what I typically play so I'll give it a chance.

black music was amazing back when there was no hip hop or rap bull shit. way to ruin their music culture

I love Al Green

Okay, Grandad...

Hip-hop in the 90s is probably the golden age of popular music. You had genuinely amazing stuff coming from both big, mainstream releases and the most obscure, underground artists.

There's always stuff coming up on blogs that had been forgotten for years.

I like all of AM's albums

I don't really like any of KoL's

I love the Strokes first and like around five songs on all their other albums combined
