capriccioso

Meh. He'll do a Robben, I think. Come here to grow his talents further then bugger off to Spain, and miss a penalty in extra time in the Champions League Final against the club that made him.

No, because I'm not interested. I stepped in to defend Choulo and I believe I've done that. Arabs hate Jews and as an Arab he'll know a lot more about why they hate Jews than any of us. They're not Russian/Eastern European/German, they don't think that Jews are out to get/already have control over the world, they just don't like them because they took their land.

And we continued with superstars: 2005/06- Essien 2006/07- Shevchenko, Ballack, Ashley Cole We slowed down after that, but in the first 4 years we bought 9 superstar players, that were among the best in the world at their position at the time of signing. City have bought 4 so far (Tevez, Yaya Toure, Silva, Aguero) in the same length of time. The Nasri's and Robinho's and other shite they've bought can be compared with Ferreira, Cech, Drogba, in that they weren't considered one of the best in the world when they signed. To say that they bought the PL while you look at us is enormous hypocrisy. We bought it more than they did.

Nasri is far from a superstar. Also we're talking early signings here; their first season signings post-takeover were: Robinho (lol) Wayne Bridge Shay Given Craig Bellamy Nigel de Jong Hardly world class, any of them. The next season: Barry (lol) Santa Cruz Tevez (fair enough) Adebayor Kolo Toure Sylvinho Lescott Vieira Johnson Take Tevez out and it's the same, not one world class player in there. Adebayor and Toure were good. The rest were signed off the back of one good season and have been rubbish since, excluding Lescott who had a good season last year. We bought 3 world class players in 2003/04 (Makelele, Veron, Crespo), and in 2004/05, we bought another 2 (Robben, Carvalho). We bought 4 in our first two seasons, they bought one.

Come on... that's taking it a bit too far.

As is this

This is brilliant

What superstars? Tevez, Toure, that's it. Apart from that they bought overpriced English wank like Lescott, Milner, Barry etc.

Cool story, bro, tell it again to someone who cares. Now fuck off with your Canadian shithouse education system, I'm Australian and we're second so I'm automatically right and you're automatically wrong. And for the record, though I'm a first year in uni I was accelerated through the history program in high school; did some tertiary accredited courses, and I'm about to complete my major in Soviet Studies by next November.

Soul destroying

Wait, theres still 8 hours. Time enough to sign a new 12 year contract.

Please sign for Schalke

I know, it's so hard to stop drinking coke

I grew up and live in the 2nd highest developed country in the world. As Australia ranks above Canada I can automatically rubbish your argument. Arabs hate Israelis because they took their land. And no matter what you say back, my argument is better than yours because Australia is number 2, Canada is number 6. Because of the discrepancy in ranking I'm automatically superior to you and nothing you say can be taken as truth if I say something different. That's basically what you said to Choulo. The HDI quality of a country and it's relative levels of development have nothing to do with the intelligence of the people there. Instead of saying every word that comes out of a Lebanese's mouth is rubbish because Canada is 89 spots ahead of Lebanon, debunk his argument properly. He is from the Middle East. The Lebanese sided with the Arabs in the conflict. He knows more about it than you do, by default. He is a primary source of information, he doesn't have to look up scholarly articles or seek out information at all, he can gather it by himself. Westerners who don't live in Asia will never understand Asia so its best for all of you to butt out and leave our own business to us. I am a historian, we study this for a living. A person who has experienced an event, even the most uneducated, illiterate person, his opinion and information on the subject is far, far more valuable than any expert who has not lived through and seen that event first hand. Choluo has a degree from University, he is educated, that, combined with the fact that he has lived through the conflict makes his opinion automatically worth more than yours.

Oh stop it now

5 quid or fuck off. The Yids can't do without our charity payments, hopefully they get destroyed over the summer.

Where has our winter gone? I feel robbed. We've had like 2 properly cold nights. I am disappoint.

Are you guys really that gullible? That article on Cahill was taking the piss... it came up on caughtoffside first. The Barcelona players never said anything like that. Wow, you guys really are lacking a bit in the analysis of the reliability of written sources. That same author, on the same website, in the same column, wrote this: They point out that is a hoax in the bottom line, FFS.

Sorry to bump an ancient thread, but they really banned United shirts? :D :D

Well, this is it. His last day as a Chelsea player.

Ronaldinho was better than Lampard; and that's saying something considering just he was that year. And it's wishful thinking to think Terry or a defender in general would win it. Unless their name is Fabio Cannavaro.

One man alone deserves to win every single Balon D'or in future:

But he is a left back. Doesn't Napoli play with only 3 defenders?

You bastard He's shit by our standards but he'd do a great job for clubs in that 8-20th bracket. He could even be a decent squad player for teams between 5 and 8. But the point is he's torn up Denmark, he could really move to a better league. Perhaps Germany. And yes, I try and relate everything on here back to Kalou. Italy's win today was actually a tribute to Kalou, little known fact.

N'Doye is not shit! Ask a Copenhagen fan, he's their Drogba! I don't want to bring Kalou into this thread....
