  1. Well technically the fact that they've 'reported' both possible outcomes means that they've got it wrong even if that is what actually happens! In Arabic we have a proverb that translates roughly to: "The astrologers are wrong even if they are right." And this is exactly what those journos writing about transfers are: astrologers.
  2. Oh look. The journo's putting two and two together and ending up with five!
  3. I love how people fall for this trick by Beasley every single time!
  4. Not too sure about West Ham and big Sam. Would rather send him to a team that actually plays football.
  5. Now I can't decide whether to get his or Azpi's name on our away shirt!
  6. I suggested last season that we simply give the opposition a goal kick whenever we get a corner. At least this way we don't run the risk of conceding on the counter! And to think we were one of the best teams in Europe from corners and set-pieces the season before last. I think this is were we missed Mata (and Frank) most. Hopefully, Cesc can fill some of that gap.
  7. Sorry to hear that, mate. Hopefully you'll get to go see the boys soon.
  8. Pretty refreshing, isn't it?
  9. The real question here is why is "Defensive unit" 'Rumoured'?!
  10. Think it's more because of our friendly with Sociedad than Sky.
  11. Very close between Barbara and Skipper, but went with B because she looks better in the Schurrle shirt than Skipper
  12. remains of the day because she deserves much more credit than she gets.
  13. This is got to be the toughest choice between all the categories. Had to go with the sharmouta in the end
  14. I think he's still at the club in some capacity, but it's being made official. He represented the club along with Giurlay in the CL draw last season.
  15. He does have connections at Chelsea, there is no doubt. But A LOT of the times he makes stuff up to get clicks and Twitter followers.
  16. Rob Beasley reliable? In what world!
  17. True. Especially in defense where we don't many backup options. But the window is far from over. A couple of back up signings could completely change that, especially that we have enough money from the sales we made to make more signings.
  18. Under Carlo Ash was the best LB in the world Under Carlo we played formation that did not require him to come out and stop crosses or play one-vs-one against wingers (not in the diamond formation or even Christmas tree formation where he had Kalou in front of him always tracking back). He's absolutely terrific when he stays in the box, which is why he did superbly well in big games last season where we where more conservative in defense.
  19. Not about Juve at all. He's not ready to move to Madrid or Barcelona or even Chelsea, for his sake, he needs to stay at least another year at Juve. As for us, we don't need him, he's not yet consistent enough to be in our starting XI, he doesn't fit our formation at all, we're already overloaded in his position, his price tag is beyond ridiculous, there hasn't been a single reliable source linking us to him, and he's not the right profile of player we are looking to sign; not the type of signing that conforms with the transfer policy we have been implementing recently and certainly not the profile of player we should sing in terms of what this squad needs for the balance of youth and experience. On the plus side, he's big shiny name that everyone wants...
