NEWCASTLE PLS

In other news, Chelsea have reopened talks with Ba.

He's off.

Arnie, I will buy you a naughty blazer of your selection if Moyes gets the job.

Deal.

It'll be tweed, and expensive.

 

[Vivalaraza]

For a long time, like Arnie, I was convinced Moyes would get the gig. Started to doubt it a little over the last year, especially when Fergie went big on the whole "it has to be a manager who's managed at the top level and won things" - but then Fergie does chat shit more or less every day of the week.

Will be interesting if Moyes does the job. Lot of fans will be underwhelmed.

I'd be quite happy with him, he is a brilliant manager - but I still do have concerns over how he'd cope when the pressure goes up to a whole new level. Not that he couldn't cope - we just have nothing to go on to know for sure. If he had managed to get Everton a cup or two over the last ten years I think he'd be the shoe-in Arnie is suggesting.

You'll get Pardew for 8 years.

This is on the understanding that Frogie will be in the job for a little while longer.

I'll hopefully be hunting for a post-doc or a job around that point.

United sell Josh King to Blackburn . Confirmed

Venkys make a decent purchase. Get that manager sorted though, eh.

I think he is very close to the end. This year or next, latest. Statue, stand, big money - it's all wrapping up.

Good move for King. Decent talent but never going to make it at United.

 

[D_prOdigy]

I've been of the inclination for the past couple of years that Ferguson would go on the spot if he won the Champion's League again.

As that doesn't seem entirely realistic, maybe he just wants to take the league back off City.

Basically I imagine he's waiting for the right fight to win.

Or maybe he'll be around for another 10 years.

I'm so deeply in love.

Want to see Powell a bit against West Ham. Keep him involved.

 

[LegoArmo]

Hoping? I think Moyes will be excellent at United.

I'm sorry that it'll disappoint you, though. I suppose you began supporting United for the glitz and the glamour lacking in Scottish football, Moyes doesn't really scratch that itch.

There's nothing more glamorous than a can of Irn Bru and a Scotch pie, don't kid yourself!

I think he would do well too, not excellent, it'll be the hardest job in world football, and that's why I think it will go to someone with experience at that level. Moyes could continue in the style of Ferguson, but I think that would be a bad idea.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Would anyone agree that Zabaleta and Nastasic are the only two City players who've done particularly well this season?



How are Liverpool doing on the illness front?

Looks like Pato is going back to Brazil.

Am I right in saying he's massively talented but has a body made of glass?

He goes beyond glass and is in fact made of wet toilet paper.

I can't think of any mistakes Richard Wright has made.

 

[Salazar]

Deluded cunt on Giggs

What is it that makes him now incapable of playing in the middle that doesn't hinder him from playing out wide? Couldn't it just be that he's been typically inconsistent when played in the middle and/or been playing without the right players around him?

I reckon if Cleverley and Anderson were out (very possible) and we had to choose from Scholes/Fletcher/Giggs then Giggsy's still a great option. If we played a front 6 of Van Persie, Rooney, Nani/Young/Valencia, Carrick, Kagawa and Giggs we'd have Kagawa starting out wide and Giggs in the middle. And I think we'd be better off for it than vice-versa.

doicare starts to look like Plato, he really does.

Phil Forster ‏@Sky_PhilForster
It is believed that Chelsea have reopened talks with Demba Ba #nufc #cfc

Thrilling.

 

[Kyoufu]

So Ba is likely to not play tonight/leave by the end of the week.

Hope Cisse can step up and we buy Remy in this window.

Thrilling.

Top of the page bro.

Douglas > Inter, Reading or Newcastle.

So overrated....

 

[Arnie]

arnie do you reccomend ballague's pep book? (outside of the next united manager speculation stuff)

I would, it's really good. Only about a third of the way through but he's a pretty fascinating character.

There's nothing more glamorous than a can of Irn Bru and a Scotch pie, don't kid yourself!

I just had fish and chips, and a can of Pepsi.

Good, but I'm too full to shower at the moment. Led down in a daze.

Pizza and premier cru cider for me soon.

Reus was better last season and Ribery is better this season.

Both are having good seasons right now.

Nothing controversial in what Kicker is saying.

 

[Salazar]

Gohan could get a run against Bournemouth on Saturday.

DOOOO IT, MARTINEZ

[The Atticus]

Something about Henriquez really interests me.

 

[Kyoufu]

Papa John's doing 50% off Pizzas deal.

So basically it's now at a normal price. :lol

 

[Vivalaraza]

Something about Henriquez really interests me.

I'm interested to see how good he actually is. Heard alot of good things but we've hardly seen him.

 

[Salazar]

Henriquez 2013| The Fire Rises || HD

Martinez did say that his side is gassed.

Cup game is a good opportunity to give a relatively pacy striker a go.

 

[Arnie]

Excited to see him play, the way some of you have talked about him.

What's the Gohan reference?

FUCK YOU CLEGG I AIN'T DELETING

Well.

This is awkward.

 

[Arnie]

What a guy. I like him, and I'll continue liking him whilst he plays for Wigan.

Then he becomes a cunt.

 

[Vivalaraza]

I almost don't want him to be that good - not now anyway.

If he has a really good impact, gets 6/7 goals for Wigan between now and the end of the season - then what do we do with him?

It seems like he's destined be loaned out for a year or two because there is just no space at United right now.

Frogson will sell him to Pardew cheap as an apology.

Convert him into a holding midfielder.

 

[Ushojax]

Ba is going to do well at Chelsea. He's exactly the sort of bastard who can pull a goal out of his arse like Drogba used to.

 

[Salazar]

What a guy. I like him, and I'll continue liking him whilst he plays for Wigan.

Aye.

Also, supposedly:

The interesting part about Rivarola and Henríquez was that not only did they resemble in their style of play, but they also looked very similar. The fans played along with the moniker of Ángelo Henríquez being the heir to Rivarola’s throne and named him “Gohan”. Gohan is the son of Goku in the Japanese cartoon Dragon Ball Z. And who had the fans named Goku in the past? Diego Rivarola of course. To make the passing of the torch complete, Rivarola handed down his coveted number seven shirt to his young successor. A new era had begun.

 

[D_prOdigy]

Yup.

 

[Salazar]

I've played him wide in FIFA.

It works well enough, but I mean, fuck, Bebe gets goals as a lone forward in FIFA.

 

[Clegg]

I'm not expecting much from Henriquez straight away. He showed a lot of potential in Aouth America but he's still only a kid.

It'll be a few years before he's ready imo.

 

[Salvadora]

Tito visited Barcelona's training ground for the first time since his surgery 2 weeks ago.

Hopefully it's gone for good.
