  1. Next round is absolutely crucial. Here are some of the fixtures: Arsenal (1st) - Southampton (3rd) Everton (5th) - Liverpool (2nd) Manchester City (7th) - Tottenham (8th) Basically that means most of our rivals, if not all, will be losing some points and we simply have to take advantage of that.
  2. Today has been perfect for us so far with Spurs and Manchester City both losing their games. Would it be too much to ask for a draw at Old Trafford?
  3. I didn't realize the season was already over by November.
  4. Loic Remy has been great for Newcastle. Do they have an option to buy him from QPR at the end of the loan?
  5. I assume that was after the penalty when Ivanovic grabbed the ball to get it to the centre as quickly as possible?
  6. Why the fuck did the team start playing only when they got ahead? Our midfield is so much better with Mikel in it, should be a definite starter from now on.
  7. Liverpool 3-0 up already. We need to win this one with a comfortable margin to stay ahead of them.
  8. Usually winter comes around November and it only gets better in April, although these times vary a lot each year. Some days are warmer but even then a temperature of -5 to 0 degrees is pretty much the best one can hope for and on the cold days it can easily get below -25. IIRC a new record was set a couple of years back when the temperature got to -52 degrees but that was around 700 kilometers north from where I live and thankfully it doesn't get that bad around here. But yeah, on average about 5 or 6 months of the year are depressing as fuck.
  9. We stay indoors and drink a lot of booze. Depressing, I know.
  10. It has been an exceptionally warm November here with temperatures of around +5 degrees almost every day but from December onwards it will be something like -30 here and it will stay that way until March. I'd trade my climate for yours any day.
  11. Well aren't you one lucky fucker. Have fun at the show!
  12. Nice. Went to a RHCP show little over a year ago here in Finland and they were great. Where did you get tickets for free?
  13. A7X was fucking amazing. I was right in the front row with over 12000 people behind me. For me it was the third time seeing them live and they're getting bigger and better each time. First time was in 2008 when they were merely a supporting act for Iron Maiden in their European tour and the second time was in a smallish venue in Helsinki but now they sold out one of the biggest indoor venues in the country almost immediately. Can't wait till they come back here again.
  14. Going to see Avenged Sevenfold in Helsinki today. Will miss our game because of it but I have a feeling it will be worth it.
  15. Ashley Young just earned United a penalty with his usual theatrics but Van Persie missed. Still 0-0. Juve - Real Madrid has been a good match. 2-2 at the moment.
  16. Obviously he was talking about last season, notice the past tense.
  17. Same matches here and also Shakhtar Donetsk - Bayer Leverkusen. Used to have a setup like that as well but it's much nicer to have the games on full screen and still have more than enough space for everything else so I got myself another monitor. Still have an extra laptop lying around somewhere and another monitor too but I've got no place for them on my desk so these will have to do, at least for now.
  18. Watching three games at the same time, one on the iPad and one on each of the monitors on my computer. It's kind of hard to focus on all of them.
  19. Well, fuck. I would have preferred the home shirt as well but yesterday they only had the away one with Hazard's name so I had to take that. If they keep this offer up long enough I may be forced to order another one in a few weeks and maybe then I could take the home shirt with either Mata or Oscar on the back so it's fine. This has definitely been good business for Sportsdirect because even at £20 a piece I suppose they make a decent amount of profit per shirt and no doubt the sales have gone through the roof these last few days. Can't even imagine how jealous the fans of other teams are when looking at those prices and then being forced to pay over £50 for their own team's shirt.
  20. Well, in my humble opinion he's been poor overall for a couple of years now but as I know not many people on here agree I chose to talk about this season only. But yeah, for me he's been shit ever since 2011. Back then he still had his moments and by turning up on the big occasions he played a big part in the club winning the CL and the FA Cup so we can't be too critical of his performances that season but even then he just didn't bother showing up most of the times. Add a couple of more players like that to the team (Drogba, Malouda etc.) and it's no surprise we ended up sixth in the Prem.
  21. Understatement of the century. All season he's been a huge liability at the back and these days he doesn't even offer much going forward either. It's not Mourinho restricting his role to accommodate the other seniors in the team, it's simply Cole being shit. Or how else do you explain Bertrand doing just fine in defense as well as attack when playing with the same teammates?
  22. What a team selection for me this week. Ramsey, Dawson and Coleman on the bench scored more points than my starting lineup combined.
  23. Just realized I'm not going to be able to watch the game. Usually that has meant a comfortable win and the last time that happened even Mikel scored a league goal so I'd say we're safe.
  24. Wtf, how is it possible that domestic shipping inside the UK costs more than international delivery to Finland?
  25. Just ordered the away shirt with Hazard on the back for just £19,99. Thanks for letting me know, Alex!
