Dunno. No one has ever been obsessed enough with me enough to be dedicating so much time just to get on my nerves. In hind-sight, I'm a little flattered..

I don't see Atsu making it in the forseeable future, but I'm not the one who put him in that lineup! I was just pointing out that he's playing centrally and not on the wing.

Finally got time to read it....Terrible, just terrible

Yes but if he's playing CM there then he is more likely to play in the pivot here than on the right wing especially that we're short on player at CM.

He used to play at LB. But IIRC he played there once for us and was just terrible.

Funny, I wouldn't put him in the top 3 this year! Messi, Zlatan and Ribery for me.

I see great drunks minds think alike!

Actually, Atsu is playing CM in a three-man midfield at Vitesse. And playing it very well I might add.

The problem is I have two exams during this time and with no football I'll be forced to actually study!

Yeah, it probably was. But you were being a cunt and trying your best to get on my nerves for a whole wee and it finally worked. I believe you called it "banter". And if we're friends enough for you to be having "banter" with me with every post you make for a whole week, then surely we're friends enough for me to call you by your first name..

This is so depressing

Of course he's NOT there to watch our many Belgian players, because that won't sell papers..

No, it's not working too well at the moment and Jose is making too many mistakes. But the two "approaches" cannot be compared, imo, because RDM's bus can, at most with some luck, work for 2-3 months like it did but you can't defend for every without eventually conceding and you can't motivate players to defend like they did unless it is a cup final or semi. While on the other hand, if it works, Jose's project can bring success for a long time like it did the last time with JT, Frank and DD.

Well for one thing we're actually playing as a team. We have both an attacking and defensive system unlike under Robbie and our performances are team based rather than relying on individual brilliance. In short, Jose is a top manager, Robbie is not.

Unless you mean only results, this is wrong on so many levels.

Put Schwarzer next to Eva in there!

No, I completely see your point. TC is no longer that tight community where you can read every single post and know and be friends with almost every one on here like it was 2-3 years back (and before that, I'd imagine). The community has become much much bigger and we've gained some members that can be guilty of what you mentioned at times, it's only normal. But we've also gained some excellent level-headed members who make great contributions. You can debate whether or not it was better before, but it's rather irrelevant as there is no way for the forum to go back to that. You can also still make a lot of friends if you want to. But maybe some of the reason why you feel the forum has changed is because you don't have time to socially engage with everyone like you used to, I dunno. On any account, there really is no hidden agenda or conspiracies. We're just a bunch of people who like this place a lot and are willing to spend time and effort to try to keep this place running the best possible way with nothing for return for us except headaches perhaps because you can never keep everyone happy like you said. Do we sometimes make mistakes? Of course we do. But I can assure you we're trying our best.

Well yes, that's not exactly "news". His contract was till June 2014 and we'll continue to pay it by law till that date or till he gets a new job. If AVB didn't get the Tottenham job, we'd still be paying him too.

Actually the decision was made before that and was being discussed for a couple of days before the banning. He has been on a "last warning" ever since I joined the staff team! He's been warned by staff members about a dozen times since he returned that he needs to stop winding people up and making problems. He was suspended for it a couple of months ago yet he keeps doing it and making fun of people and attacking their opinions more than he makes regular posts. People have been increasingly complaining about him. The last straw was the WBA post match thread where we got several reports about his behavior.

"If I leave, Chelsea would have to make the decision. Chelsea are one of the biggest clubs in the world and I have realised my dream here." Oh Rami

@Jype, @Rmpr, @Tomo, @robdog, Alright guys, let's not over do it, please. You have the right to ignore whoever you want, but bragging about it like this is just "cyber bullying"!

lol It really doesn't matter because you don't have an IP, your IP is dynamic hence it keeps changing all the time. Anyway, I actually don't know why I posted it here, meant to send it to you by PM. Apologies. At least I don't break the whole fucking forum when I try to ban someone!

Very interesting start to the season in the PL. Surprised that Nish lost two in a row.
