Some of the doomy-gloomy posts are baffling. What is it so far this season that has made you so pessimistic against this average mid-table team?
-
Doubt there is any serious interest. We have a plethora of young defenders in the making (Zouma, Kalas, Christensen, Omeruo). If we're looking to improve our defensive frailty, then going for an established and proven defender is the way to go. I'm sure we have scouted him, as it's only natural to keep an eye on every potential talent, but that doesn't automatically prove a serious interest.
-
What a finish. That was a perfect move all around starting from us winning the ball, Fabregas making the splendid pass and Costa finishing it off in cold fashion. I have a feeling goals like that will become classics over the years, just like Lampard-Drogba ones.

Somebody should show Lampard this thread. Frank, look what you've done

I suck at rating. I can only tell if a player plays shit or good, then they stand out. If they play average, then I'm useless. I observe games in general, not singling out any individuals. So a rating between 1-5 would be satisfactory, but 1-10 is too much imo if it ever gets implemented.

I'll give my two cents to this discussions. What Lampard has done is NOT okay, in my books at least. I'm not calling him a traitor or judas, but he is playing for our title rivals and even directly influenced the title race against us. He willingly and knowingly contributed FOR our rivals. I have a feeling many people choose not to let that sink in. Granted, he is a top professional, I'll give him that, but it doesn't make what he did right for me. There may be several reasonable justifications for his decisions and actions, but I don't care, it is still wrong on all levels. Lampsy is a legend over here, no questioning that, and I might be able to forgive him because out of all the footballers, he's my all-time favourite. I will forgive him, because he's given us far more than he's taken. But I will never forget 21.09.2014 - the day he scored against us, the day John Terry had to block his shot, the day he made us feel miserable. Also a big fuck you to Pellegrini, prick.

The video has been taken down. Is there any other place where I can see it? I tried googling but no avail.

Turkish Airlines rumoured to replace Samsung
manpe replied to Waterfall's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
It's actually funny that companies give big money to already filthy rich clubs to stick their logo on their shirts, and in return the club sells those shirts for obscene prices to regular people in order for them to spread the brand outside the stadium. As a result the brand becomes more popular, the club gets more money, and still sells shirts which value is determined solely on the brands sticked on it. And people gobble it all up, they love it! The shirt business in football is capitalism at its worst. They make a few alterations every season, so that people would want to buy the "new" thing for reasons they can't even explain (zombie consumership). And the club is happy because they just convinced you to give them your hard-earned money to promote the sponsor who gives them tens of millions every year anyway. And of course people are happy because they got the new thing. Actually thinking like that it's a win-win-win for all, errbody happy! Carry on... -
Seriously though, when's the last time somebody scored 7 goals in first 4 games? If ever...

I FUCKING LOVE YOU DIEGO PLS MARRY ME

No chance. And on top of that don't want him here.. no room for divas. Real is the perfect club for him and Ronaldo embodies everything that Real represents, they belong together so let him stay there.

Turkish Airlines rumoured to replace Samsung
manpe replied to Waterfall's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
You would? The chevy logo is absolutely hideous. The 2nd or 4th option from that picture would be much better. Preferably the rightmost one, but with smaller text. -
SOMEBODY FIND A NON-DISCRIMINATING VIDEO OF THAT NAAAOOW

Turkish Airlines rumoured to replace Samsung
manpe replied to Waterfall's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
Hope not. So accustomed to Samsung already. Looks nice and all. Shouldn't be a problem for them to spit out more money, they are in top 10 richest businesses in the world. Turkish Airlines would look and sound just plain awful imo. -
How many posts for changing from "youth team" etc
manpe replied to thekid9's topic in Announcements & Support
Kid is showing ambition, I like it. Keep it up, you might soon make the bench. And who knows, if you play your cards right, one day become a fans' favourite. -
I don't need to, it's obvious. Or just try finding out who I voted for.
-
Only one obvious choice in that poll tbf.

Thibo is an infant in goalkeeper years, it's scary to think how much better he can still become. Although I'm no expert, but when I see him play, I can't see any big faults, only minor ones from time to time. His reflexes and command of the area is as good as any. With accumulation of experience and top class coaching, he will become the best.
-
I feel that the strikers Mourinho has signed since coming here, have all been personality signings. Eto'o, Diego and Drogba ooze of strong personality (too early to say anything about Remy). With those three signings, Jose reinstated some much needed balls back to our striking force. Eto'o was literally a stop-gap till we were waiting for the real deal, but even he brought some much needed courage and quality back to our attack until we waited. Losing this mental edge in games was one of my biggest worries pre-Jose. He knows what he's doing.

We've successfully replaced the three deadwoods from last season. Now that is what you call an overhaul. Ding*ding*ding Man United...
-
Hopefully we wrap this up soon, so we don't panic splash 30M on Destro or whoever.
-
Amazing, 4 goals with no service whatsoever... oh wait
-
He's still shaking off some rust. Remember it's been only 3 games, he looks like the type of player who needs time to get back to his best. The mistakes he's made look more like something that will get ironed out with more games. I'm not worried, he will be back to mr reliable in no time.

We win at Everton away, we score six, Diego Monsta scores twice, Torres leaves... been a happy day
