  1. you can probably use mine if you want for Vitesse Anyone know when the players are back for pre-season? Only 17 days until our first game so it can't be too long
  2. I certainly think our style will change a bit. Even when he was managing Academica in the bottom half of the Portuguese league they were always encouraged to play tica-taca passing football. It was the same at Porto- less about lumping the ball up to a target man and more about passing and getting a decent pass or cross to Falcao. Juao Moutinho was key to this in centre midfield and I would be very pleased to see him join us. He reminds me of Yossi Benayoun but with more goalscoring ability. It is exciting times bringing in a new and very young manager who knows the club well. Hopefully he will realise the potential of players like McEachran and give them playing time instead of going all out for marquee signings
  3. That article is more shit than what I leave in the toilet on a Sunday morning! They can have Ross Turnbull but not Luiz
  4. 1 When will we have a new coach?- 22nd June 2011 2 Who will it be? Andre Villas-Boas 3 When will the first "Sack him " thread start? When we go out of the 4th round of the Carling Cup to Wolves 4 Who will be the first signing? Falcao 5 When . 26th June 2011 6 Who will be our first older player to leave? Florent Malouda 7 Who will be sent out on loan Van Aanholt, Bruma, Jack Cork 8 List all our Major signings Falcao, Kevin De Bruyne, Lukaku
  5. I think he will be announced late tonight or tomorrow- there are a few final things to be ironed out between Chelsea and Porto. Do you think he will bring his own back room staff?
  6. Just gave LDN Blue his 800th bit of rep- 799 seemed a cruel number to be on
  7. I think a win at Old Toilet early in the season would be a good psychological boost for us- if we can do it. Man U always start slowly so that could be to our advantage. On the other hand our tricky end of season fixtures could be damaging. The games come thick and fast- particularly in March/April if games get changed due to FA Cup etc. so one loss could do us a lot of harm. If by then we happen to have a 6 point lead and lose one game we will need a lot of character to bounce back with those fixtures. With regard to those last 5: Man City away 17th March This game comes possibly after a Champions League 1st Knockout round 2nd leg. That could cause problems against such a strong, physical team but on the flip side they could be in the same situation as us. We have struggled at Eastlands in recent seasons but were unlucky not to take a point from there last season. Aston Villa away 31st March We played poorly at Villa this and last season. We were lucky not to lose in 10/11 season. Even worse it could potentially come after a first leg of a Champions League quarter final (if we get there). Even when we do win at Villa Park it is not done convincingly. Fulham away 9th April No potential champions league midweek game here BUT it does come only 48 hours after we play Wigan at home. Despite this, I think we will win. Fulham have never caused us too many problems. Arsenal away 21st April This one really does worry me. The game is potentially sandwiched between the 1st and 2nd legs of a Champions League semi final(They could be in the same boat as us though) and knowing Sky it will probably be changed to 4PM Sunday as part of their 'Ford Super Sunday' Liverpool away 5th May Not really close to any Champions League game. If we are in the position that we were in 2009/10 at Anfield, last away game of the season, top of the league then I am confident that we can win this. Torres will score the goal (in front of the Kop) that wins us the league
  8. WRONG! Around 95% of home supporters in Manchester are in fact from the London area but claim to live in Manchester
  9. As we are doing first 5 now 1- Norwich (h) 2- Aston Villa (h) 3- Liverpool (h) 4- Stoke (a) 5- Newcastle (a) 6- QPR (h) 7- Bolton (a) 8- Blackburn (h) 9- Manchester United (h) 10- Sunderland (a) 11- Swansea (h) 12- West Brom (a) 13- Arsenal (a) 14- Wigan (h) 15- Wolves (a) 16- Fulham (a) 17- Stoke (h) 18- Spuds (h) 19- Man City (a) 20- Newcastle (h) 21- Norwich (h) 22- QPR (a) 23- Everton (h) 24- Aston Villa (a) 25- Fulham (h) 26- Sunderland (h) 27- Wigan (a) 28- Wolves (h) 29- Manchester United (a) 30- West Brom (h) 31- Swansea (a) 32- Bolton (h) 33- Everton (a) 34- Man City (h) 35- Spurs (a) 36- Blackburn (a) 37- Liverpool (a) 38- Arsenal (h)
  10. where would we play? Its not like we have 15 000 capacity 'Mini Estadi' like Barcelona B and i'm sure the pitch at Stamford Bridge would not be able to host 2 games per week- the grass itself, policing, Fulham Broadway station etc and lets be honest Cobham isn't adequate for a league competition with a B team (if we were to be in Npower league 1 etc.
  11. They're not called the bees for nothing
  12. Last season I predicted West Ham at home. This season I think it will be Norwich or Newcastle away. Or Aston Villa home First home game: Liverpool or Aston Villa Boxing day: Stoke or Sunderland at home New years day: Wigan or Everton at home Final game: Arsenal home
  13. Got damn First Capital Connect! They are even worse than Southeastern trains!
  14. Gigi Salmon, Cundy, Nevin and Tommy Docherty are probably in charge at the moment.
  15. Has anyone seen our training kits for next season? I would much rather have the blue one as our home kit and the white one as our away kit Home Away Would much prefer that really.
  16. We have another two and half months to sort things out and we could be negotiating secretly. I expect we are in talks with Lukaku and perhaps Neymar. However, knowing us negotiations will break down, we will take a long time to sort out a new manager and will panic buy with 2 weeks left before the start of the season like a teenager who has to start revising before an exam the next day. I really do not think that we will make too many if any high profile signings unless we appoint a manager very soon.
  17. Getafe are my second team as well
