Well, Ashley's out of court now so maybe he can stop being such a tight git. Maybe he still feels wary after the cash he gave McClaren.

I've only just seen this. Absolutely incredible :D
Reports suggest Ashley is backing Rafa and there's up to about £75m-£100m, but given how poor the starting 11 is it makes sense to try and spread that throughout the line up.Quote:

If you think back to some of the results we had under Rafa when we went down then I think it makes sense to trust him and have faith. We've had so many 'talented' squads where the players didn't care and it didn't work.
Forgot to mention Murphy earlier. That could be a great signing too. Nice to have players who support the club.
It was a dig at the "this is our year brigade". Thanks for getting involved though.Quote:

Why is the tv channel Quest (144) showing the emirates cup?
They bought the rights.
Have anyone got a stream for the United game?
Whoever bought the rights.
Fanks mate.

Fellainimania going out in style.
I'll feel cheated if he's not there Wednesday night.
What the hell is this Wagner shit all about? I get you can pay him to do some shitty video obviously to wind people up, but he was actually at Dens Park today for some half-time draw? WTF!
Who?
Dundee fans are fucking aidsQuote:

2-0. Get the graph....
The more I see Renato Sanches, the more I think that he just isn't that good. He was disappointing for Bayern last season, and I don't remember him being particularly spectacular at the Euro's (despite the win). Never saw him play in Portugal.
I thought he looked excellent in the Euros but other than that I've only seen him off the bench I think.
Our season this year then. :groove:
3-0, Gruijic and Kent :drool:
Wait...? Was it disallowed?
EDIT: Yup, Lallana offside.
Aaaand Sturridge is injured again. For fuck's sake.
Injuring himself whilst scoring a nice chip. It's the Sturridge way.

Season over. Just need to see who gets second now.
Sturridge's entire career summed up in about three seconds. It was ever thus.
He was lovely at Benfica. Industry and a good passing game with the ability to hit the ball. He seems to have moved too soon and could have done with another season or two learning in a lesser league.Quote:

I don't think there's a better style of football than Liverpool's manic press/transition game for pre-season (over)excitement.
Jesus, the state of Griezmann's hair. Hardly a do that could launch a thousand noodle boxes.
Firmino is such a don. Shame they let an England international take a pen. Always doomed to fail.
How is Daniel Sturridge still a Liverpool player?
I can't name another Liverpool striker. I'm so out of the loop.
Orlando City's The Dom Dwyer scored against Real Madrid :drool:
We're clearly going to win the world cup :drool:
I thought the exact same thing :) He genuinely looked like a woman.Quote:

Speaking of Women, I'm watching the Denmark-Austria, and the commentator must think that the viewers are stupid. First she nearly climaxed and proclaimed that a keeper had made a great save, when in fact she had just saved a long shot, and now a Dane just headed wide, to which she commented that she had made "great contact with the ball" (having just watched the replay below)...

the actual football has been surprisingly good - especially from the Danes.
I go to see Orlando City's women's team (Orlando Pride) pretty regularly and it's genuinely not the worst thing.
Then again we have Marta and Alex Morgan so maybe it's that.
It's quite fashionable at the moment.
I still have no time for it, but maybe I'll do at some point if it's not the complete shitshow it was when I last saw it.
I enjoy it. There's definitely a gulf in class. Not just between teams but individuals and I think that's why it doesn't quite work as well as it should. It's not long ago, these lasses were classed as amateurs and they're still scrapping for professional status, sometimes.
I think the goalkeepers are letting down the entire profession tbh. They are all horrendous, I just can't enjoy watching them.
The goalkeeping is generally worse because even the best goalkeepers are small. Hope Solo is probably the best ever and she's only about five foot eight. Really they should just play with slightly smaller goals, but just imagining the shitstorm that would create has given me a sore head.
Sort of the same thing as double faults being more common in women's tennis, due to them being smaller and the height of the net remaining the same. The women's goalie thing is worse/more amusing though.
Women's cricket is played with smaller boundaries and no one (other than the real career knuckle draggers) seems to mind. I don't see why you couldn't make the goal a bit smaller, or even use a hockey-style rounded goal.
